NFL mock draft 2021: 49ers snag Mac Jones; Broncos trade up for QB
2021 NFL mock draft: Round 1, 27th overall
Penn State. player. 26. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. EDGE. Jayson Oweh. 27
Wide receiver seems to be getting mocked to the Baltimore Ravens a lot in recent weeks. While it is certainly possible that they go with a pass-catcher, let’s not forget about their need at edge rusher. With the 27th pick of this NFL mock draft, the Baltimore Ravens select Jayson Oweh, an edge rusher out of Penn State.
Oweh was not the most productive player in college but this athletic upside was painfully obvious at all times. Oweh is a long, quick and explosive athlete at the edge rusher position whose upside as a speed rusher around the edge stands out in a major way. If he can clean up his game a bit, Oweh has a chance to grow into an absolute star.
2021 NFL mock draft: Round 1, 28th overall
Pick Analysis. Tulsa. 28. 15. Scouting Report. LB. Zaven Collins. player
With their quarterback situation in flux, the New Orleans Saints may not be ready to be serious contenders again anytime soon. Their priority in the 2021 NFL Draft should be finding players who can grow into real long-term assets.
However, this team is always thinking about the short-term and will likely look to fill immediate needs with players who can help them right now. Zaven Collins is a big and athletic linebacker prospect who could come in and fill an immediate need on the roster.
2021 NFL mock draft: Round 1, 29th overall
Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. 29. 49. WR. LSU. Terrace Marshall Jr.. player
The Green Bay Packers have had a need at the wide receiver position for a while now. Will this be the time they actually try to get Aaron Rodgers some help? Davante Adams is an absolute stud and a tremendous number one target for Rodgers but the team lacks impact playmaking behind Adams. In this NFL mock draft, they bring in Terrace Marshall Jr. to help with this issue.
Marshall is a big and athletic wide receiver prospect who shows good contested-catch ability and high-level deep speed. He shows the ability to make plays on the outside and out of the slot, and also fits the typical size profile that the Packers like in their receivers. His combination of size and speed is exciting but Marshall is also a well-rounded playmaker who could come in and provide immediate value in the Packers’ passing attack.
