Justin Fields and the 5 biggest steals from 2021 NFL Draft
1. Justin Fields- 11th overall to the Chicago Bears
The biggest steal in the 2021 NFL Draft was Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields.
He may not have fallen as far as some of the other guys on this list, but he is one of the best quarterback prospects to come out recently and the fact that he fell to 11th when there were plenty of teams that needed a quarterback ahead of that pick says to me that the former Buckeye was over scrutinized during the draft process.
The Chicago Bears made the move of the draft to go and get their quarterback of the future and it should pay off sooner rather than later.
I consider this the steal of the draft because of the level of prospect that Fields is. Elite players such as Fields should never be there at eleven and the fact that the Bears got him there is a tremendous value.

It also helps that Fields plays the most important position on the field and has the chance to save the Bears from their mistake of trading up for Mitchell Trubisky in 2017. I think Fields will be a superstar and this will be seen as the biggest steal in the 2021 NFL Draft.
