2021 NFL mock draft: Jaguars land Lawrence [The San Diego Union-Tribune :: BC-FBN-MOCKDRAFT:SD]
Everyone who saw the 17-point underdogs inexplicably beat the Rams in Los Angeles on Sunday had the same thought immediately after the game.
“Man, even when the Jets win, they lose.”
That’s because the Jaguars now have a 71 percent chance of landing the No. 1 pick, according to ESPN’s FPI.
This changes things.
Mostly because Justin Fields’ recent struggles against Northwestern and Indiana killed the momentum he had earlier in the season, leaving Trevor Lawrence on the mountain top all alone.
Fields falls back into a group with Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, Mac Jones and Kyle Trask. All potential first rounders, but none in the same league as Lawrence as a pro prospect.
