Trevor Lawrence will be the first-overall pick. Zach Wilson is expected to go second.
After that, it’s wide open.
A lot can change over the final few hours before commissioner Roger Goodell steps to the podium, and trades make accurately predicting the final order that much more difficult.
Based on all of the information available right now, here is how I think the 2021 NFL Draft will play out.
1. Jacksonville Jaguars: QB Trevor Lawrence, Clemson
Lawrence is -20000 to go first overall. Congratulations to the Jaguars’ new franchise quarterback.
2. New York Jets: QB Zach Wilson, BYU
Once they decided the second quarterback on the board has a higher ceiling than what they had on their roster, the Jets traded Sam Darnold to the Carolina Panthers. Wilson is -5000 to go second overall.
