It's anyone guess as to what happens at No. 3 overall in the 2021 NFL Draft with the 49ers -- I still believe it'll be Justin Fields from Ohio State. After that, this draft really begins with the Falcons. Do they trade down or take Kyle Pitts?Â
Also, if Mac Jones isn't San Francisco's selection, does a team trade up to get him? He seems to be liked much more by the NFL -- and CBS Sports draft analyst Ryan Wilson -- than the rest of the draft community.
OK, let's get to it as we go three rounds in our latest mock.
Round 1 - Pick 1
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 2
Wilson has been telegraphed to the Jets for weeks.
| |||
 From
Miami Dolphins
Round 1 - Pick 3
After all the Jones rumors, the 49ers go with the super-accurate Fields to upgrade the quarterback spot.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 4
While they field calls, the Falcons ultimately turn them down and pair Pitts with Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 5
The Bengals get their franchise tackle to bookend Jonah Williams as the ultimate protection for Joe Burrow.
| |||
 From
Philadelphia Eagles
Round 1 - Pick 6
Even with Alabama receivers on the board, the Dolphins pick the consensus top wideout in this class for Tua Tagovailoa.
| |||
 Mock Trade from
Detroit Lions
Round 1 - Pick 7
The Broncos can't just wait and hope Lance falls to them; therefore, they swing a trade with Detroit to get the raw but ultra-talented passer.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 8
The Panthers have to upgrade their left tackle spot and do so with Slater here.
| |||
 Mock Trade from
Denver Broncos
Round 1 - Pick 9
After moving back, the Lions still get Waddle, who reminds new GM Brad Holmes of Brandin Cooks. Detroit gets a fourth- and sixth-round selection in this trade.
| |||
 Mock Trade from
Dallas Cowboys
Round 1 - Pick 10
Bill Belichick makes somewhat of an aggressive move to climb five spots to take the Alabama quarterback. New England trades its third-round pick, a fifth-round pick, and a future sixth-rounder to swing this deal.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 11
Smith, Kenny Golladay, Darius Slayton, and Sterling Shepherd represent a fine receiving quartet for Daniel Jones.
| |||
 From
Miami Dolphins
Round 1 - Pick 12
Parsons can be the quarterback of Philadelphia's defense. He provides significant edge-rushing talent too.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 13
Darrisaw is a plug-and-play left tackle, and Los Angeles has a gaping hole at that spot right now.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 14
Phillips is the perfect pick for the Vikings at this juncture. Complete edge rusher who meets Minnesota's physical requirements for the position.
| |||
 Mock Trade from
New England Patriots
Round 1 - Pick 15
The Cowboys still get their cornerback after trading down. Ideal scenario for them.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 16
Horn is a long, press-man specialist who plays with serious physicality throughout the route. Arizona needs to fill the vacancy left by Patrick Peterson signing with the Vikings.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 17
Davis has three-down abilities because of his size, length, and fluidity as an athlete.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 18
Ojulari plays with high-level explosion and is on the upward swing as a pass rusher. That's what Miami needs.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 19
Vera-Tucker can play tackle or guard in the NFL, and Washington could use more reinforcement up front.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 20
Bateman is a well-rounded wideout with deceptive route-running and YAC capabilities.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 21
Moore is part possession slot receiver, part dynamic downfield threat. The Colts need more juice in their passing game.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 22
Jenkins is the road-grading type the Titans like on their offensive line.
| |||
 From
Seattle Seahawks
Round 1 - Pick 23
Newsome is a fluid, explosive outside cornerback who routinely makes plays on the football.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 24
Farley falls slightly, and given the state of their older secondary, the Steelers can't pass on the Virginia Tech defensive back here.
| |||
 From
Los Angeles Rams
Round 1 - Pick 25
There would be many broken tackles in the Jaguars receiver group with Moore and Laviska Shenault on the field.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 26
Owusu-Koramoah is one of the most freaky specimens in the entire class, and the Browns linebacker group needs an upgrade.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 27
Moehrig is a do-everything safety, and Baltimore's blitz-heavy scheme relies on quality, multi-dimensional safety play.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 28
Collins is a long, fluid linebacker with some pass-rushing juice.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 29
Rejoice, Aaron Rodgers. Toney is a gadget type with serious downfield speed.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 30
Buffalo needs more size in its secondary and Melifonwu is long and super explosive.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 31
Barmore and Chris Jones would give the Chiefs two big, pass-rushing specialists at defensive tackle.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 32
Leatherwood represents the future of the offensive line for Tampa, and he could play guard early in his career.
