2021 NFL Draft complete first-round results

The 2021 NFL Draft kicked off Thursday night with the first round of selections in Cleveland.

The Jaguars opened the night with the first overall pick, which they used on Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence, who’s widely considered the best QB prospect in years. The Jets followed that up by taking BYU quarterback Zach Wilson, as expected, with the second overall pick.

The real mystery started with the third overall pick and the 49ers, who took North Dakota State’s Trey Lance after trading up earlier in the offseason. The Falcons took Florida tight end Kyle Pitts and Bengals landed LSU wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase to round out the top five.

The Bears shook up at the draft by trading up to the 11th overall pick, which they used to take Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields. It’s the team’s latest big swing at trying to find a true franchise QB.

The results of the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft are below.
