I thought six NFL teams had fantastic drafts, acquiring top talents while addressing key needs and upgrading their overall roster. In order:
1. Carolina Panthers
6. Los Angeles Chargers Ethan Young (@EthanYoungFB) May 1, 2021
We may not have the best history in RD2, but our recent 3rd rounders have been pure
Hoping Dyami Brown and Benjamin St-Juste add to this! pic.twitter.com/mecYqiLARU Mark Tyler(Hogs Haven) (@Tiller56) May 3, 2021
Just a taste of what @DaxMilne is bringing to the squad
Report: Colts Will Meet Virtually with BYU WR Dax Milne Prior to the NFL Draft
Dax Milne prior to the 2021 NFL Draft:
One guy I want to talk about is BYU s Dax Milne. While watching Zach Wilson, it was Milne who came down with a lot of those big plays (70-1188-8 in 2020).
The 6’1”, 190 pound junior wideout caught 70 receptions for 1,188 receiving yards (17.0 ypr. avg.) and 8 touchdown receptions during 12 starts for the Cougars this past season.
Milne was quarterback
Zach Wilson’s favorite target for BYU (who’s a projected Top 5 NFL Draft pick) and the two were also college roommates sharing a connection both on and off the field.
PROVO A day after the team s top lineman did the same thing, BYU s leading wide receiver from 2020 is heading off to professional pastures, as well.
Dax Milne announced Thursday that the 2020 season was his last in Provo, opting for the 2021 NFL Draft in lieu of his senior season of college eligibility.
Milne joins teammate Brady Christensen, a Bountiful High product, in declaring for the draft early, as well as former Utah prep standouts in Stanford s Simi Fehoko (Brighton), USC s Jay Tufele (Bingham) and Oregon s Penei Sewell (Desert Hills). My heart is full, Milne wrote in announcing his decision. The last three years have been a dream come true. The experience I have had playing football for BYU has given me more than I can put into words. It has been such a special place to play the game I love.
