Last night we conducted our first NFL Mock Draft 2021. The participants include eight men, well-versed in the annual NFL Draft including in order of appearance: John Vogel, Dan Shonka, Matt Wise, Mike Fast, Dev Panchwagh, Cole Jackson, Ken Zalis and John Langley. Each was tasked with making 8 picks in this two-round mock, the most dubious of which belonged to Wise and Shonka who were saddled with selecting for the Ravens with picks No. 27 and 58 respectively.
The good news for Ravens fans, these gentlemen hit on two glaring needs for the team: Edge and Wide Receiver. We’ll let you be the judge as to whether or not they made the right plays. Given the way the board played out, who would you have drafted for the Ravens? Which mock drafter made the best overall pick? Who was responsible for the biggest head scratcher?

Tony Pauline’s Jaelan Phillips Scouting Report
Positives: Explosive edge rusher who took his game to the next level and is coming off a sensational season. Breaks down well, plays with outstanding pad level, and gets leverage on opponents. Fluid moving in every direction and displays a tremendous first step off the snap. Flows well laterally and gets down the line of scrimmage to make plays in space. Fundamentally sound, displays solid technique with his hands, and covers a good amount of area on the field. Easily changes direction, bends off the edge, and shows great speed up the field. Agile, nicely redirects and plays tough, instinctive football. Does more than just rush up the field and get after the passer and gives effort defending the run. Chases downfield to make plays if necessary. More here…

WR Nico Collins, Michigan
Tony Pauline’s Nico Collins Scouting Report
Positives: Large, strong possession receiver with reliable hands. Plays big-boy football, fights with his hands to separate from defenders, and gets vertical to come away with the reception when defenders are draped on him. Finds the open spot on the field, tracks the pass in the air, and possesses strong hands, displaying the ability to pull the ball away from his frame. Nicely makes the reception on crossing patterns. Reliable. More here…
