The Washington Football Team had a great season in 2020, despite their woes at the quarterback position. The team went 7-9, won the NFC East, and went blow-for-blow with the eventual Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After a solid free agency, the Washington Football Team find themselves in a good position to repeat as NFC East champions. In this mock draft, the Washington Football Team use their remaining picks to address their short-term and long-term needs.<\/p>\n

The Penn State product is easily the best coverage linebacker in the class and has the sideline-to-sideline speed that scouts crave. He\u2019s no slouch against the run either and is truly the ideal three-down player for today\u2019s era of football. Parsons did have some off-field issues during his time at Penn State, so the Football Team will need to do their homework with him. However, assuming the character concerns aren\u2019t serious, he\u2019d be an immediate contributor and would make a great defense even better.<\/p>\n Micah Parsons NFL Draft Profile<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n We here at Last Word on NFL have a late first-round grade on Jalen Mayfield, so snagging him with the 51st<\/sup> overall pick is an absolute no-brainer. The Michigan product is remarkably consistent, blessed with great footwork and versatility to play both tackle positions. He\u2019s better as a pass blocker than a run blocker, which is a good thing in today\u2019s pass-happy NFL. He should be able to start right away and could easily develop into a franchise cornerstone at the position.<\/p>\n Jalen Mayfield NFL Draft Profile<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Ryan Fitzpatrick is a solid bridge quarterback, and Taylor Heinicke looked great against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, neither player is the long-term answer at quarterback, and every teams\u2019 first goal should be securing the most important position in the sport. Davis Mills will need time to develop, as he only had 11 starts at the NFL level. However, when on the field, Mills looked like a solid game manager that always knew where to go with the football. Spending a year or two on the bench would probably be the best thing for him, and he has an outside shot of turning into Washington\u2019s long-awaited answer under center.<\/p>\n Davis Mills NFL Draft Profile<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n The Washington Football Team have a good defense, but they could certainly use more help in the secondary. Campbell might not be ready to start right out of the gate, as a lot of his game still needs some polish. However, he has the size, build, and traits to be a great starting cornerback. In this Washington mock draft, the team shoots for the moon and drafts one of the bigger boom-or-bust players in the class.<\/p>\n It\u2019s been a long time coming , but we see you Tyson Campbell \ud83e\udd76 pic.twitter.com\/MET7QmzQ4I<\/a><\/p>\n — \ud83d\udeab LEE Ring (@HBTFD1) November 29, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nWashington Football Team Seven Round Mock Draft: Post-Free Agency Edition<\/h2>\n
