Every year, sports football fans become enamored at the speculation the NFL Draft will bring. It is a time where immediate hopes find unrealistic expectations, or doubts find the depths of the lowest valleys.
As we transition back to a sense of normalcy in sports, the 2021 NFL Draft commenced on Thursday night bringing a lot of eyes to many different areas of the game. Some had eyes on where their supported team had gaps to fill in talent. Some had a drive to see if their team could make a big splash within the draft with a high-profile acquisition or trade. Some specifically watched to see if the agenda from the analysts would be fulfilled or not. In that last instance, I am referring to what I deem the Trumpism effect.

The University of Alabama will be well-represented at the 2021 NFL Draft. Quarterback Mac Jones could be a top-10 pick, and his teammates like Jaylen Waddle, DeVonta Smith and Najee Harris are among the potential (or even likely) first-round picks from the Crimson Tide.
That trio of Waddle, Smith and Harris got fantastic injury updates ahead of the draft.

In most offseasons for Detroit Lions fans, the Senior Bowl is a huge event for evaluating NFL prospects.
This year, it’s been a little different.
For the most part, the Lions have had a complete overhaul of their coaching staff and front office. The main storylines have all been focused on the new hires and the potential trade of longtime quarterback Matthew Stafford.
Naturally, the Senior Bowl has taken a back seat to everything going on in Detroit. That’s not to say the All-Star Game and the practice week aren’t vitally important for the upcoming NFL Draft.
