Digging a bit deeper into the 2021 NFL Draft class with a first-round 2021 NFL mock draft.

The 2021 NFL Draft class is starting to take shape. Most of the major college football is well into their seasons, the Big Ten will join the fun this weekend and the Pac-12 will follow a couple of weeks later. As the season continues to unfold, we will undoubtedly see many 2021 NFL Draft prospects rise and fall up and down the board. That being said, the cream at the top of this class feels relatively set.

Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence is the premier prospect in the 2021 NFL Draft class and will likely go No. 1 overall in any scenario. If a team that feels set at the quarterback position ends up picking No. 1, they will likely trade the pick for a massive haul to a team that needs Lawrence more.

Joining Lawrence at the top of the quarterback class is Justin Fields out of Ohio State and Trey Lance out of North Dakota State. Both Fields and Lance are incredibly talented quarterback prospects who will undoubtedly be in consideration in the top five for any quarterback-needy team.

While these gifted quarterbacks will receive most of the headlines, there is a lot to be excited about in the 2021 NFL Draft class. Once again, we have an incredible group of receivers this year. This draft class also features a ton of talent in the secondary, across the offensive line and on the interior defensive line.

Who is your favorite team able to add to the mix in this mock draft? Follow along and find out.
