The National Football League’s 2020-21 season is now in the rearview mirror with the completion of Super Bowl LV and while the Tampa Bay Buccaneers continue to bask in the glory of their pro football title, the sport continues to move along.
Many of us are already looking forward to the next big date on the NFL calendar, which happens to also cross paths with the college football ranks: the 2021 NFL draft. The upcoming selection process distributes collegiate talent among the 32 professional teams in the league and will feature several former Florida Gators looking to play in the highest level of their beloved sport.
Among those expected to be taken are Mackey Award-winning tight end Kyle Pitts and the celeritous receiver Kadarius Toney, as well as Heisman Trophy finalist quarterback Kyle Trask — two of whom could be drafted in the first round, and possibly all three.
Below are the ten UF alumni who have entered the 2021 NFL draft pool for 2021, complete with profiles and some of our own Gators Wire player profile cards.
