2021 NFL Draft: Offense leads the way in this 2021 NFL mock draft

It is no secret that the Baltimore Ravens offense is not the same unit we saw run through the NFL last season. Currently, the only three players on the roster with 20+ receptions are wide receivers Marquise Brown, Willie Snead IV, and tight end Mark Andrews. Besides Andrews standing at six-foot-five, there is little to no physical presence among this receiving unit.

Terrace Marshall Jr is a six-foot-three wideout who could very well be the most athletic prospect of the 2021 NFL Draft wide receiver class. There is still work to be done in his route-running proficiency and creating separation, but Marshall has shown with an impressive performance against Jaycee Horn that he can take on any opposition with his athletic dominance.

Between a selection of Kyle Allen, Alex Smith, and Dwayne Haskins, Washington has lost their way within the quarterback room. Ron Rivera has seemingly moved on from the Ohio State product, and thankfully the 2021 NFL Draft provides options.

Trey Lance is the athlete of the quarterback class, able to stretch the field with both his legs and arm. Although North Dakota State doesn’t give Lance the same level of competition as many other quarterback prospects in the 2021 NFL draft but has produced recent quarterbacks such as Carson Wentz and Easton Stick. Washington has shown to possess a competitive defense and a fully capable coaching staff led by Riverboat Ron, and Lance could reanimate Carolina’s 2015 offensive schematics.

Kenyan Drake has been a perfect schematic fit for Arizona but will be entering free agency this offseason after signing a one year deal at just under $8.5 million. Although Drake has been successful in Arizona, with only $4.8 million in cap space he will likely be finding a new home with another quality paycheck. Javonte Williams has had one of the most impressive collegiate seasons for a halfback in recent memory.

At 220 pounds, Williams displays startling agility and lateral quickness which enables him to capitalize on exceptional field vision even. Williams is also a player who can put the shoulder down and tack on physical yardage to every play. At Arizona, we will get to see Williams continue to grow as a runner and explode onto the scene with the receiving talent we saw in college.

As Miami becomes a nearly complete roster, adding talent to the interior offensive line is one of the final steps in protecting franchise quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Current starting center Ted Karras will be a free agent entering the 2021 offseason, but Miami has an opportunity to acquire an exceptional center for the future.

Creed Humphrey has been the anchor of the Oklahoma offensive line, leading the unit to a Joe Moore Award for the nation’s best offensive line in 2018 topping the likes of Alabama and Iowa. Humphrey is a cerebral player with a high football IQ and great strength anchoring in against the power-rush.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have so far disappointed after such lofty preseason expectations and will be facing an onslaught of in-house free agents looking for new contracts elsewhere. Three of these key players are linebacker Lavonte David, edge Shaquil Barrett, and defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh.

Joseph Ossai is a six-foot-four, 254-pound weakside linebacker from Nigeria with immense upside. Currently, Ossai has shown his best play chasing down and making plays in the backfield, but has shown upside in both pass-rush and coverage. Ossai is a project linebacker who will need time to develop, but once polished could be a perennial all-pro.
