Football is almost here! It’s just a matter of time before the season begins. The first step was Free Agency, and now the Draft! This Thursday @ 8:00 pm the 1st Round of the Draft will be on in prime time and I’ll be glued to the television. This is a very interesting draft class and it’s hard to predict who each team will pick, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have fun trying. So, based on the opinions of experts and my own uneducated musings (and including a couple draft spot trades) here it is, Olie’s 2021 Mock Draft:
