Alabama won the CFP National Championship and the declarations have been announced, which means the pre-draft process is now in full swing.  Episode 16 takes a different look at the 2021 draft class on the offensive side of the ball.  We know that we'll have four QB's taken in Round 1 - Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance and Justin Fields.  But how many QB's can we expect to be drafted?  Looking at a five-year average, we'd expect 13 QB's to be drafted.  So who are they and when will they come off the board?  Did you know that 37 WR's were drafted in last year's draft, the highest total since 2003 when Charles Rogers, Andre Johnson and Anquan Boldin came off the board?  Looking at the WR class, you can make an argument we'll see that total again.  Using just the numbers and averages, Gregg looks at where 140 offensive prospects might land on Draft Day.
