The 2020 NFL season is into the the 2021 NFL divisional playoffs. The college football season has reached its end with the College Football Playoff championship game.That makes it another good time to expand our latest Sporting News first-round 2021 NFL mock draft. Now we know picks No. 1 through No. 24, with six teams eliminated from the playoffs over the weekend. We also know there will be plenty of top pro talent on display between Alabama and Ohio State on Monday night.Here's breaking down all the projected selections, according to Tankathon:MORE: 1. Jacksonville Jaguars (1-15) Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson (6-6, 220 pounds)Lawrence didn't have the best finish to his college career, but he lived up expectations of being a generational talent at the position, the second Toronto Raptors T-Shirts in a row after Joe Burrow. He's a great leader and winner on top of being a strong-armed pa ser and capable tough runner. Lawrence will clean up the Jaguars QB me s, attached to a new coach, potentially former big college winner Urban Meyer. Lawrencecan have succe s right away with the Jaguars having a decent offensive line and top young skill players such as James Robinson, D.J. Chark and Laviska Shenault Jr.2. New York Jets (2-14) Justin Fields, QB, Ohio State (6-3, 233 pounds)Fields wasn't having the most standout second season for the Buckeyes in Big Ten play, but he saved his absolute NFL-loving best for lighting up Clemson and outplaying Lawrence with a dazzlingall-around performance in the College Football Playoff semifinal. Sam Darnold may haven't gotten the fairest shake with things around him under now fired Adam Gase, but regardle s, he doesn't have the type of ceiling Fields does. Fields can quickly help New York play catch up with the Bills (Josh Allen) and perhaps pa s the Dolphins (Tua Tagovailoa) with his immense natural physical talent.MORE: 3. Miami Dolphins (from Texans for Laremy Tunsil) Ja'Marr Chase, WR, LSU (6-1, 208 pounds)Chase opting out of LSU's me s of post-Joe Burrow season was a good decision to preserve his stock as the unquestionedbest wideout in the cla s, even though he has some tough competition for that status from an Alabama duo. Chase posted 84 catches for1,780 yards and 20 TDs during Kyle Lowry Jersey the national championship season and can join former teammate Justin Jefferson in lighting up the NFL as a versatile playmaker. The Dolphins could use him as a true big-play go-to guy for Tagovailoa to support DeVante Parker, much like Jefferson played well off Adam Thielen as a rookie.4. Atlanta Falcons (4-12) Kwity Paye, EDGE, Michigan (6-4, 272 pounds)The Falcons need to invest heavily in their pa s defense (again) in the 2021 draft. They need to hit on someone who can get after the quarterback and dominate physically and athletically against offensive tackles. Paye is a freak of nature and has quickly shot up draft boards. It's hard not to think about a combination of Ziggy Ansah and Jason Pierre-Paul in that sense.5. Cincinnati Bengals (4-11-1) Penei Sewell, OT, Oregon (6-5, 325 pounds)Protecting Burrow better while also boosting the running game up front has to be a priority for Zac Taylor's team. Sewell is the exact kind of rock the Bengals need and they shouldn't hesitate to jump on him if he's on the board. After Lawrence to the Jaguars, his availability would make Sewellthe easiest pick in the first round.6. Philadelphia Eagles (4-11-1) Micah Parsons, ILB, Penn State(6-3, 245 pounds)The Eagles got some flashes from Alex Singleton but otherwise had a glaring defensive weakne s at linebacker, struggling both in cleaning up against the run and second-level pa s coverage. They can stay in state to get a rangy playmaker in Parsons, going for matching value with need vs. going wide receiver.Parsons isa hard-tackling and well-covering cleanup man in the Luke Kuechly game-changing mold.MORE: 7. Detroit Lions (5-11) DeVonta Smith, WR, Alabama (6-1, 175 pounds)The Lions gota nice Toronto Raptors Hats closing stretch from Marvin Jones Jr. with Kenny Golladay (hip) on the shelf for most of the season, but Jones is also heading into his age 32 season as a free agent. It makes sense to think about a high-level replacement who can form a great new combination with Golladay for Matthew Stafford (or whoever else might be at QB for a new coach). Smith has picked up from he left off last season to become Heisman Trophy-worthy.He has 105 catches for 1,641yards and 20TDs in 12gamesthis season.8. Carolina Panthers (5-11) Zach Wilson, QB, BYU (6-3, 210 pounds)Wilson has had an exceptional season with his accuracy and downfield pa sing toemerge as the draft cla s' third-best Henry Ellenson Jersey QB prospect after Lawrence and Fields.Teddy Bridgewater did OK as the Panthers' bridge QB out of nece sity,but there's also an indication they have a limited ceiling with him and should think about replacing him by 2022 with a longer-term solution. Wilson would be a strong, cerebral fit for Joe Brady's offense.9. Denver Broncos (5-11) Caleb Farley, CB, Virginia Tech(6-2, 207 pounds)The Broncos had shaky cornerback play with aging A.J. Bouye as their best outside option. They will also think about further boosting their edge pa s rush, but they also won't pa s up on some shutdown potential for the secondary. Farley was one of the first top prospects to opt out for his final college season. He has great size and solid all-around coverage skills for the position. The referenced media source is mi sing and needs to be re-embedded.10. Dallas Cowboys(6-10) Patrick Surtain II, CB, Alabama (6-2, 203 pounds)Surtain, with his pedigree, size and ball-hawking skills, has the potential to be a true shutdown player.The Cowboys' secondary has been awful without Byron Jones and Surtain would be a good complement to fellow Alabama product Trevon Diggs. Jerry Jones needs to focus on shoring up the back end first in the proce s of fixing the defense.11. New York Giants (6-10)Gregory Rou seau, EDGE, Miami(6-6, 260 pounds)The Giants are strong up the middle defensively and look much better at cornerback, but they are in desperate need of punching their old calling card on the edge under Dave Gettleman. Rou seau, who opted out of the Hurricanes season, didn't really need to playto boost his stock after posting 15.5 sacks and 19.5 tackles for lo s in his lone significant and final season under defensive-minded head coach Manny Diaz.12. San Francisco 49ers(6-10) Trey Lance, QB, North Dakota State(6-4, 226 pounds)Lance is slowly climbing back up boards with his ma sive upside. As more teams seetapes of his one statistically brilliant lone season as a starter (2, Hakeem Olajuwon Jersey 786 yards pa sing, 28 TDs, no INTs, 1,100 yards rushing, 14TDs) it's harder to ignore theimpre sive
