NFL Draft Countdown
2021 NFL Draft NFL Coverage

All-Rookie Team (2021)

Ja'Marr Chase, Rookie

After evaluating the 2021 NFL Draft class, there were plenty of players who were known to be for sure studs while others came from the late rounds to surprise and have tremendous rookie seasons. 

My choices aren’t necessarily who had the best stats or played the most, but, in terms of talent, who emerged and should continue to see their star rise in the NFL. It may lead to some controversial choices for players who weren’t statistic grabbers or full-time players being ranked ahead of others. If you want to voice your displeasure, please tweet at me @ShanePHallam
