2021 NFL Draft: Every Team's Best-Value Selection | Bleacher ...

"Wallace shows his competitiveness and toughness in his play as he attacks every throw in the air and has no qualms with attempting to barrel a defender over with the ball in his hands."Wallace was ranked 52nd overall on B/R's final draft board.The Buffalo Bills didn't land any major steals based on B/R's draft board, but their selection of Miami University offensive tackle Tommy Doyle in Round 5 (161st overall) was still valuable.The 6'6", 320-pound swing tackle prospect can provide Buffalo with depth on both sides of the line."Gritty, try-hard blocker with starting experience at both tackle spots," NFL Media's Lance Zierlein wrote. While there's certainly value in landing a potential franchise quarterback, the move did cost them a 2021 fifth-rounder and first- and fourth-round picks next year.The Bears' trade up in Round 2 landed them the 39th and 151st picks while only costing the 52nd, 83rd and 204th selections.With the 39th pick, Chicago grabbed Oklahoma State offensive tackle Teven Jenkins, the 12th-ranked prospect on B/R's big board. In the second, they grabbed former Clemson offensive lineman Jackson Carman.In Round 3 (69th overall), the Bengals addressed their defense by scooping up Texas pass-rusher Joseph Ossai, which should provide immediate dividends.The 43rd-ranked prospect on B/R's draft board, Ossai amassed five sacks and 16 tackles for a loss in nine games last season. Their first selection didn't come until Round 3, where they took Stanford quarterback Davis Mills 67th overall.While Mills wasn't a highly ranked prospect on B/R's draft board (No. 135), some viewed him as the best quarterback of the second tier—after Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, Mac Jones and Justin Fields—and a possible first-round option."I don't know where Mills goes exactly, but the buzz around the league is that he could be a first-round pick and will most likely be the sixth quarterback selected," NFL Network's Peter Schrager wrote in early April.Given the importance of the quarterback position, the uncertainty surrounding Deshaun Watson and the fact that Houston didn't have to trade up to land Mills, this was a valuable selection by a franchise short on draft capital.Based on B/R's draft board, the Indianapolis Colts overdrafted every prospect except for seventh-round pick Will Fries (248th overall). Eichenberg isn’t the most fleet of foot and speed rushers with wide angles can test him off the edge, but sound fundamentals and footwork should have him positioned to contest such challenges with a fair amount of success."Eichenberg was the 28th-ranked prospect on B/R's final big board.While the Minnesota Vikings went offense with their first two selections—offensive tackle Christian Darrisaw in Round 1 and quarterback Kellen Mond early in Round 3—they finally addressed their 29th-ranked scoring defense in the middle of the third round.With the 78th overall pick, the Vikings scooped up North Carolina linebacker Chazz Surratt, a prospect who easily could have gone a full round earlier.Surratt was the 48th-ranked prospect on B/R's draft board.The former Tar Heels standout should instantly add some much-needed playmaking ability to Minnesota's linebacking corps. Florida receiver Kadarius Toney should add another element to their offense, although he's likely to be mostly a gadget player early in his career.Given Toney's lack of polish, New York's second-round selection (50th overall) of Georgia pass-rusher Azeez Ojulari represents a far better value.Ojulari, the 42nd-ranked prospect on B/R's board, should instantly address an area of need for the Giants. However, their selection of Alabama interior offensive lineman Landon Dickerson in Round 2 (37th overall) might provide even more long-term value.Dickerson, the eighth-ranked prospect on B/R's draft board, has the potential to be a 10-year-plus starter for the Eagles and the eventual successor to center Jason Kelce. He was the 29th-ranked prospect on B/R's big board and a player with early NFL starting potential at either tackle spot."The son of former NFL offensive lineman Ray Forsythe, started the final 25 games of his career with the Florida Gators at left tackle—but he has taken reps on the right side of the line as well and that added flexibility should afford teams more appeal as a potential swing tackle early in his career," Kyle Crabbs of The Draft Network wrote.Getting Forsythe in the sixth round should be viewed as a coup for a team with few draft selections and for one that needs to protect quarterback Russell Wilson at all costs.Offensive line depth will be even more critical in the 17-game era, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers might have landed a steal by taking Notre Dame offensive lineman Robert Hainsey in the third round (95th overall).The 82nd-ranked prospect on B/R's draft board, Hainsey brings the potential to plug in at either guard or tackle if needed. In the draft, it used a third-round pick (82nd overall) on North Carolina receiver Dyami Brown.The selection of Brown represents a great value for Washington, as he should instantly impact the passing game.The 33rd-ranked prospect on B/R's draft board, Brown amassed 1,099 yards and eight touchdowns in only 11 games last season.
