2021 NFL Draft: Panthers trade up, QBs go early in 2021 NFL mock draft
Tight End. Florida. 47. Scouting Report. Kyle Pitts. 15. player. Pick Analysis
The New England Patriots have plenty of decisions to make this offseason and have enough cap to make a splash. The quarterback position is one thing to monitor, and they could be in play for one in the 2021 NFL Draft. However, the value here in drafting Florida tight end Kyle Pitts is too great to pass up.
Pitts is an elite receiving tight end who will be a matchup nightmare for teams. He’s competitive enough as a blocker, but his real damage will be done by stretching the field and finishing off drives in the red zone. He will become the top target in New England in no time for whoever takes snaps under center.
Cornerback. 16. player. 32. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. South Carolina. Jaycee Horn
The Arizona Cardinals stayed close in the playoff hunt in 2020, thanks to the efforts of Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins. Now, they need to build on that success by having a good offseason. The Cardinals plan on parting ways with Patrick Peterson, which will leave a hole in the secondary.
There are other needs in Arizona, but selecting Jaycee Horn would be huge for this Arizona secondary. There are a lot of threats at receiver in the division, and having a number one guy to blanket them is important. Horn gets a little grabby at times, and that will be a bit of a learning curve, but he’s feisty and a nightmare at the catch point and in short zones.
