2022 NFL Draft Rankings – Quarterbacks

It may only be June, but monitoring the NFL Draft is a 365-day job. I watch tape year-round and have worked the NFL Draft since the year 2000, so I know it's never too soon to look ahead. This is an early preliminary list of the top draft-eligible quarterbacks to look out for this year […]


2021 NFL Mock Draft - Day Three (Rounds 4-7)

Below are the results from Days 1 and 2, along with live updates from Day 3 (Rounds 4-7) I have been updating the mock draft very frequently as I have in years past. There are 50-60 factors I look at in determining updates. Everything from free agent signings, team releases, new coaching staffs, player workouts, […]


2021 NFL Draft Rankings – Tight Ends

Not all teams utilize the tight end position as one of the focal points of their offense. We have seen what a team with a top-notch tight end is able to accomplish and the mismatches they can create. Kyle Pitts is one of the best offensive threats in this draft regardless of position. While there […]


2021 NFL Mock Draft for 7 Rounds - Version 18

We are just days away from the 2021 NFL Draft, so let's take one more look at the latest mock draft based on recent movement in the NFL free-agent market and prospect evaluations. I am updating the mock draft very frequently as I have in years past. There are 50-60 factors I look at in […]


2021 NFL Mock Draft for 7 Rounds - Version 17

We are just days away from the 2021 NFL Draft, so let's take one more look at the latest mock draft based on recent movement in the NFL free-agent market and prospect evaluations. I am updating the mock draft very frequently as I have in years past. There are 50-60 factors I look at in […]


2021 NFL Draft Rankings – Wide Receivers

There were six wide receivers taken in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft and we expect at least five to be chosen on Day One in 2021. The thought of seeing 10 receivers in the first two rounds seems to be a very realistic number. What complicates matters just a bit is that […]


2021 NFL Mock Draft for 7 Rounds - Version 16.0

Major trades have occurred since our last version with San Francisco, Miami and Philadelphia all making major deals and moving around in the first round. **I am updating the mock draft very frequently as I have in years past. There are 50-60 factors I look at in determining updates. Everything from free agent signings, team […]


2021 NFL Mock Draft for 7 Rounds - Version 15.0

Major trades have occurred since our last version with San Francisco, Miami and Philadelphia all making major deals and moving around in the first round. **I am updating the mock draft very frequently as I have in years past. There are 50-60 factors I look at in determining updates. Everything from free agent signings, team […]


2021 NFL Mock Draft for 7 Rounds - Version 14.0

With a plethora of high-profile quarterbacks on the move, this is proving to be an intriguing offseason already. We will surely have more quarterbacks on the move and this will continually shuffle the Draft Board. There are no trades in this scenario, all teams draft where they are currently lined up on the board. The […]


2021 NFL Draft Rankings – Defensive Tackles

The 2020 Draft saw a sharp decrease in the number of defensive linemen taken in the first and second rounds of the draft. There was 10 defensive lineman taken with the first 64 picks a year ago. 2019 saw 11 in the first round alone. Look for 2021 to be closer to last year's total. […]


2021 NFL Mock Draft for 7 Rounds - Version 13.0

With a plethora of high-profile quarterbacks on the move, this is proving to be an intriguing offseason already. We surely have more quarterbacks on the move and this will continually shuffle the Draft Board. Yes this is a full seven-round mock draft and you might think it's entirely too early for this level of prognostication. […]


2021 NFL Mock Draft for 7 Rounds - Version 12.0

With a plethora of high profile quarterbacks on the move, this is proving to be an intriguing offseason already. We surely have more quarterbacks on the move and this will continually shuffle the Draft Board. Yes this is a 7-Round Mock Draft and you might think it's entirely too early for this level of prognostication. […]


2021 NFL Mock Draft for 7 Rounds - Version 11.0

Repeat after me....THERE IS NO OFFSEASON IN THE NFL. We have concluded with the big game and Tom Brady will be doing plenty of hand exercises to ensure he can handle the weight of the 7th ring on his digits. Yes this is a 7-Round Mock Draft and you might think it's entirely too early […]


2021 NFL Draft Rankings – Running Backs

The casual observer will talk about Travis Etienne and Najee Harris only when the running back position comes up. The draftniks know there is true value and the best running back is often not always the first drafted at his position (see last season when I said during the whole process that Cam Akers was […]


2021 NFL Draft Rankings – Defensive Ends

The 2020 Draft saw a sharp decrease in the number of defensive linemen taken in the first and second rounds of the draft. There was 10 defensive lineman taken with the first 64 picks a year ago. 2019 saw 11 in the first round alone. Look for 2021 to be closer to last year's total. […]


2021 NFL Draft Rankings – Quarterbacks

What you need to know is that QB Trevor Lawrence is the real deal. It has long been predicted that Lawrence would be the top player available in this draft and he did not disappoint during the regular season last year. Lawrence is far and away the best player, but by no means will he […]
