The 2021 NFL Draft was the 86th National Football League Draft, the annual meeting of National Football League (NFL) franchises to select newly eligible players for the 2021 NFL season. The draft was held in Cleveland from April 29 to May 1, 2021.[1]
Five quarterbacks were selected in the first round — Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, Justin Fields, and Mac Jones — the second highest number of first-round quarterback selections (tied with the 1999 and 2018 drafts) after the six selected in 1983. The draft also marks the third time the first three picks (Lawrence, Wilson, and Lance) were quarterbacks, following the 1971 and 1999 drafts. A total of eight quarterbacks were selected in the first three rounds, the most in NFL Draft history. Conversely, only two quarterbacks were taken in rounds four through seven.
In addition to the high number of quarterbacks, six Alabama players were taken in the first round, which is tied with the six Miami players in 2004 for the most first-round selections from an individual school. Conversely, no Big 12 Conference players were drafted in the first round for the first time since the conference began play in 1996, and no Michigan State players were selected for the first time since 1941.
Scouts considered the later rounds of the draft lacking desirable prospects due to the COVID-19 pandemic shortening the 2020 college football season. The NCAA granted an extra year of eligibility and an opt-out option for athletes because of the shortened season, resulting in many prospects returning to school instead of declaring for the draft.[2]

The host city was chosen during the NFL Spring League Meeting on May 22, 2019.[3] Cleveland and Kansas City were announced as the hosts for 2021 and 2023, respectively, from the remaining finalists from the 2019 draft after Las Vegas was chosen to host the 2020 event (later moved to the 2022 edition of the draft).[4]

2020 Resolution JC-2A picks
In November 2020 the NFL passed that year's Resolution JC-2A, which rewards teams for developing minority candidates for head coach and/or general manager positions.[17] The resolution rewards teams whose minority candidates are hired away for one of those positions by awarding draft picks. These draft picks are at the end of the third round, after standard compensatory picks; if multiple teams qualify, they are awarded in draft order from the first round. These picks are in addition to, and have no impact on, the standard 32 compensatory picks.[18] Four picks have been awarded for the draft pursuant to the resolution.
- ^ San Francisco received a third-round selection along with 2022 and 2023 third-round selections when its defensive coordinator Robert Saleh was hired by the New York Jets as head coach and its vice president of player personnel Martin Mayhew was hired by Washington as general manager.[6][7][8]
- ^ The Los Angeles Rams received a third-round selection along with a 2022 third-round selection when their college scouting director Brad Holmes was hired by Detroit as general manager.[9]
- ^ Baltimore received a third-round selection along with a 2022 third-round selection when its assistant head coach and passing game coordinator David Culley was hired by Houston as head coach.[10]
- ^ New Orleans received a third-round selection along with a 2022 third-round selection when its director of pro scouting Terry Fontenot was hired by Atlanta as general manager.[11]
Notes
- ^ The NFL originally announced 32 compensatory selections. On March 19, it released a revised list of 33 selections. After correcting an error in the original calculation, the Patriots earned an additional fifth-round compensatory selection. The NFL Management Council and NFLPA agreed to add an extra compensatory selection instead of removing a previously awarded one.[12]
- ^ While Las Vegas originally forfeited its sixth-round selection as punishment for repeated COVID-19 protocol violations during the 2020 season,[13] this penalty was not reflected in the NFL's official release of draft picks.[14]
- ^ While New Orleans forfeited its seventh-round selection as punishment for repeated COVID-19 protocol violations during the 2020 season,[16] the penalty was not included in the NFL's official draft order.
Forfeited picks
- ^ New England forfeited its third-round selection as punishment for illegal filming of the field and sidelines by the team's television crew of a 2019 game between Cincinnati and Cleveland.[5]
- ^ Minnesota forfeited its seventh-round selection as punishment for a salary cap violation involving a 2019 practice squad player.[15]
