2021 NFL mock draft: Dolphins get Deshaun Watson, other bold QB trades
2021 NFL mock draft: Round 1, 26th overall
Georgia. Azeez Ojulari. player. 53. Scouting Report. EDGE. 26. Pick Analysis
The Cleveland Browns are led by an extremely forward-thinking front office and while their need at the linebacker position is obvious, it is difficult to see this front office putting first-round value on the position. With this in mind, the Browns fill another defensive need with their first-round pick in this 2021 NFL mock draft, as they address their edge rusher situation with the selection of Azeez Ojulari.
Ojulari is a quick and athletic edge rusher who can consistently win with impressive speed and burst on the outside. He fires off of the ball quickly and shows impressive flexibility when bending around the corner.
While Ojulari has exciting athletic upside, do not sleep on his power and dependability on the edge. Ojulari has strong hands and does a great job of setting the edge. He plays with great discipline against the run and always seems to be in great position. Ojulari feels like a great fit for the Cleveland Browns and pairing him with Myles Garrett would give Cleveland a game-wreaking duo on the edge for many years.
2021 NFL mock draft: Round 1, 27th overall
player. 26. Miami (FL). Gregory Rousseau. 27. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. EDGE
The Baltimore Ravens do a great job of sitting back and taking the best player available when they are on the clock. In this NFL mock draft scenario, Gregory Rousseau fell further than he typically does, presenting a great opportunity for the Ravens to pounce.
Rousseau is a bit of a project player, but his combination of athleticism and length on the edge is incredibly impressive. He also shows the ability to rush the passer from the interior if asked to do so. Simply put, Rousseau is an extremely gifted player who could quickly grow into an impact player for the Ravens on the defensive side of the ball.
