The Miami Dolphins have added key pieces during the NFL free agency, but this 2021 NFL mock draft could hold the real prizes for the team.

While the Dolphins have not made any real splashes this offseason, outside of shockingly signing Will Fuller, the team has focused on value and filling needs. However, in the draft, the Dolphins will be able to make real splashes.

While the other 31 NFL teams have also made major moves during a quite interesting free agency, the AFC East has seemed to make the most of this time. New England, Buffalo, and the New York Jets have all made a move to improve this offseason and could do so even more with a good draft as well.

In honor of free agency, and the fact that it is beginning to slow down, here is a first-round mock that solves the issues many teams still have.

player. 52. Pick Analysis. QB. 1. Clemson. TrevorLawrence. Scouting Report

The Jaguars have made several moves to improve their roster this offseason and it seems to be in order to set up for Lawrence to come in and become an immediate factor. Lawrence is the best quarterback, and quite possibly the best player, in the draft and should win Rookie of the year and change the fate of the Jags.

OT. PeneiSewell. 2. player. 30. Scouting Report. Oregon. Pick Analysis

Adding Corey Davis was a good first step in getting an improved offense. From what it seems, and what fans want, the team will hold onto Sam Darnold and give him a better roster in Robert Salah’s first year at the helm. Adding Sewell, who can play both right and left tackle, should slot in nicely opposite of last year’s first-round pick Mekhi Becton. Drafting Sewell would help give Darnold a solidified offensive in what could possibly be his last year in New York.
