Jacksonville addressed their primary needs earlier in this mock draft as I have them taking a quarterback, cornerback, and offensive lineman with their first three picks in the draft.

The New England Patriots need to bring in a young quarterback in the 2021 NFL Draft, and no one left on the board was worth taking at the 15th spot in this year’s draft.

He will need to be in an offense similar to what the Patriots ran with Tom Brady though, as like Brady he lacks the athleticism to be any type of running threat.

With the selection of Jevon Holland, they get an athletic defender who is outstanding in coverage. He is also one of the more productive defenders in the 2021 NFL Draft as he recorded nine picks in just his two-year college career.
