2021 NFL Draft
This draft surely didn’t disappoint with plenty of big trades and sneaky moves pulled to keep everyone on their toes. What the 49ers did was quite sneaky and I didn’t believe it for a second that they were actually going to draft Mac Jones at number 3, I thought they had a better chance at picking Justin Fields then Mac Jones, but they fooled everyone by picking Trey Lance. I figured he could be high on peoples lists because he is the prototypical QB these days. Speed and the perfect frame to go along with great Arm Strength, he was just a little less polished than Justin Fields or probably even Mac Jones, but I definitely think he has a higher ceiling than the other 2 and when it’s all said and done Trey Lance may end up the best QB in this class.
Everyone assumed Trevor Lawrence would be the no brainer number 1 pick and to be honest I don’t remember a more clear cut number 1 pick consensus in recent years. He should be at least a decent NFL QB in my eyes, I’m not sure I see someone as good as Patrick Mahomes though but that will be a tough QB to Catch as far as the Records go. Mahomes may break them all, but I don’t think he will break Tom Brady’s Superbowl Record, or anyone else will break it either, that record maybe untouchable so Brady’s GOAT status could last forever. Emmitt Smiths rushing yards and rushing TD’s records may be unbreakable these days with the way NFL teams use Running Backs these days. I’m lucky enough to hold a 10 grade Autograph of Emmitt Smith from Beckett (see Below).
