Georgia Football has plenty of talented prospects in the 2021 NFL draft, but where will they land?

While they may not have a top-five pick in this year’s draft, Georgia Football has several guys that have round one talent and that can be day one contributors in this upcoming NFL season.

The Bulldogs have put out some of the best talent in the country in recent years and this year is no exception. Most of this year’s crop of players are on the defensive side of the ball, while most of Georgia’s offense elected to return to Athens for 2021.

While there is no consensus on who the top Bulldog is in this year’s draft, my favorite prospect to watch has been edge rusher Azeez Ojulari. Ojulari has excellent burst around the edge and is great at causing havoc plays in the backfield and I think that he will be stepping in day one and providing pass rush to the team.

The next group of Georgia football players that have a chance to be drafted is in the secondary. Cornerbacks Eric Stokes and Tyson Campbell have seen their stocks go up after posting solid pro days and both have entered the conversation to be picked late in the first round.

Some of the other prospects to keep an eye for Georgia would safety Richard LeCounte III, who was one of Georgia’s best players and leaders the past few seasons but has seen his stock drop somewhat due to a poor pro day.

Offensive linemen Ben Cleveland projects as a mid-round pick at guard and should be able to make a roster and be a solid backup in 2021. Linebacker Monty Rice is a nice prospect who could hear his name called on day two or three.

Georgia football has some of the most talented players in this draft and could land on any team. Here is where I think Bulldogs’ top prospects will go in this year’s NFL draft.
