of the 2021 draft is going to be stacked. Totally stacked, also with the uncertainty of college football (covid19) you will probably have a lot of the top underclassmen declare.
You forgot LB Dylan Moses (Alabama) since he didn't play last year
It's a combination of rankings from several respected websites with 2021 rankings posted. I looked at how they ranked them and then put together my own top ten based on personal prejudices (in terms of position, school, and conference).
For example, I know nothing about Patrick Surtain, but I suspect he is being overrated based on his dad and the fact that he plays for Alabama. Dylan Thomas is another who I downgraded based on the fact that he plays ILB and the Alabama factor again has me assuming he is being overrated. I'm not saying they don't belong in the first round, but I pushed them outside the top ten in favor of Trey Lance and Walker Little.
If you're Lawrence or Sewell, you can really only hurt your stock or (worse) hurt your body. And if the season winds up being pushed to the Spring semester, it should be a no-brainer to forego playing. You can't be expected to play a college schedule in the spring and immediately follow that up with NFL minicamps and OTA's in May and June, training camp in August, and a Fall/Winter 16-game season.
Clemson has got Justyn Ross, Minnesota has a big WR that is expected to have a big year, if they play CFB... alot of good WRs this year... but LSU's Chase is absolutely the cream of the crop. Best WR I've seen in CFB period
Really, really wanted to see Okudah vs Chase last year
Edge Rusher, Center, and cornerback would be our top needs without seeing the team and in that order. Offensive tackle would be another and inside linebacker and safety the rest. A whistling in the dark projection of our needs. Meant to say, not in that order, the biggest needs would show up during the season, if I had to wack at it, then its, edge, center, corner, wideout, tackle, inside linebacker, safety and defensive tackle.
Who is the top rated OC or IOL who might transition to OC?
Giants still have a few serious needs or at least serious question marks, like CB. Whiffing on Baker (I'm betting he's gonna be jettisoned by Joe Judge) really hurt.
Another 1st round CB with horrible attitude, so similar to the Apple FU.

...So you've never seen either of them play, but you just didn't include them based on what you suspect?
FWIW, if you look up both players, you'll find that many think that they're top-10 guys (in Moses' case, top-5)

I didn't include them based on the fact that they weren't universally regarded as top ten prospects (of the draftniks I surveyed, at least as many had them outside the top ten than inside the top ten and none had both inside the top ten). And, btw, nobody had Moses in their top 5.
So as I said, given that neither of them were universally loved (as you imply), I applied my own personal prejudices and chose to leave them out in favor of two others who also made some top tens, but were not universally loved by the draftniks. You are free to put together your own top ten based on your own prejudices.
Miami has three potentially elite EDGE guys in Rousseau, Roche and Phillips.
I also really like Patrick Surtain II (Alabama). I think he'll end up in the top-15, if not top-10.
I'd knock out Little and Lance and put in Surtain and Moses.
Warren Jackson of Colorado State, Tamorrion Terry of Florida State and TJ Vasher of Texas Tech!
The draft will be interesting if College Football doesn't happen. Some really good players could be had later....

DraftTek Top 100
Larry Parker of GBN 2021 mock draft
Scott Wright 2021 Mock Draft
Draft Ace (Ryan McCrystal) 2021 Mock Draft
After how many trade downs?
;>)
Do not go gentle into that good draft!

Travis Etienne Jr. will be a first rounder
Justyn Ross may never play football again...
