Like every year, the highest level of American soccer, the NFLwill hold its Draft, an event that positions each of the 32 teams with the opportunity to reinforce the lines they consider most vulnerable in their roster based on the youthful talent that was demonstrated in the last season of the NCAAthat is to say, the collegiate category of the sport.
The order of selection is established according to each team's record in the previous season, i.e., in order to maintain a balance among the teams, the league gives preference of select first to what, in theory, would be the most desirable player to the team that posted the worst record in the last campaign. This time it is the Jacksonville Jaguarswhile the last one will be the champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The sensation man of this generation is expected to be Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence, a player that is difficult for the Florida team to pass up, making him the first overall selection.
On the other hand, one of the moves that attracted the most attention in the hours prior to this draft was the trade of selections carried out by the San Francisco 49ers and the Miami Dolphins, situation that allows the Bay Area team to climb to be the third in selecting talent in this 2021. After 3 years with Jimmy Garoppolo in charge of throwing, the legendary team realized that this is not the passer that will lead them to achieve a Super Bowl, so is expected to take a gamble on Alabama quarterback Mac Jones or, if available, talented Ohio State graduate Justin Fields.
The NFL Draft will take place this Thursday at 5:00 p.m. San Francisco time, 7:00 p.m. Central Mexico time, and can be seen on the ESPN sports television network.
