Tennessee Titans 3-round 2021 NFL mock draft Photo by Harry How/Getty Images The Tennessee Titans are just weeks away from an important draft. An offense that’s led by the talents of Ryan Tannehill, Derrick Henry and A.J. Brown has lost some important secondary pieces this offseason. The departures of Jonnu Smith, Corey Davis and Adam Humphries has left the team incredibly top-heavy on that side of the ball. The signing of Josh Reynolds helps some, but the Titans need more at the receiver pos...

Again, Mel Kiper Says OL for Vikings in Newest Mock Draft 0 3 minutes read ESPN‘s Mel Kiper Jr. is absolutely convinced that the Minnesota Vikings — in some form or another — will be selecting an offensive lineman in the 1st Round of the 2021 NFL Draft.

As of right now, the Buccaneers still have at least two years left of Tom Brady being their starting quarterback. He originally signed a two-year deal with the team in March of 2020, but just about a month ago he agreed to a one-year contract extension that would keep him in Tampa through 2022, his age-45 season.

USA TODAY As the lead-up to a quarterback-heavy NFL draft has unfolded, BYU’s Zach Wilson has seen his star rise like no other draft prospect in the last year has. After putting up pedestrian numbers during his first two college seasons and entering the fall widely seen as a mid-round draft projection, the 6-2, 214-pound signal-caller erupted to rank among the top passers in the nation. In the months since his junior season concluded, Wilson has only further ascended. He could hear his na...

On this date in 2017, ESPN’s Todd McShay played GM for every NFL team in a three-round mock. And I’m not sure which has me more confused: No quarterbacks going in Round 1 of this mock that was made about 20 days before the 2017 Draft … or that Mitchell Trubisky was still his QB1? In either case, re-visiting this mock draft should serve as a reminder of how much things can change between now and draft day. But also, it’s worth remembering that mock drafts are good for assessing team need...

Photo by Joe Robbins/Getty Images All of the attention is on who the San Francisco 49ers will select with the No. 3 overall pick, but general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan continue to do their research on mid-to-late round selections. The Niners have nine total picks in the 2021 NFL Draft and still need to add some depth to the secondary as well as the offensive and defensive lines. Justin Melo of The Draft Network has been keeping the football world updated on which prospects...
