2021 Early Mock Draft – Round 1
By: Fernando Jeronimo / Dave Heilman / Keith Sheeran / Andrew Felton
The 2020 NFL season is now in the rear-view mirror after the Tom Brady led Tampa Bay Buccaneers took down the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LV. Now, it’s time to turn our attention to the upcoming rookie draft.
