Official 2021 NFL Draft - Round 1-7 Thread

[Blitzwood]

I may be in the minority here but I’m pretty happy with this draft, sans the TCU pick. I thought there were better options available, but oh well.

IMO, Watson will be suspended for probably half if not most of the season, and don’t see him coming back for a handful of games and risk getting injured prior to any trade in the offseason.

So I can see Mills being our starter to start the season, if not a few games afterwards, same goes for Nico Collins and Brevin Jordan, hard to see them not starting early on, especially Collins.
I think Jordan does provide an upgrade to our TE position, many scouts had him as the second best TE in the draft. it will definitely make life easier for whoever is QB next season, plus what’s the point of trading so many middle picks if you don’t plan to start them.

I also envision Lopez being heavily involved, he is just a load to handle and we haven’t had that type of presence since Reader left.

So three, possibly four full-time starters out of five picks would indicate to me a pretty successful draft class.

Hopefully they can all stay healthy.
