2020 NFL MOCK DRAFT!
| Order | Team | Pick | Explanation |
| 1 | Cincinnati | QB Joe Burrow LSU | Burrow had the best statistical season maybe ever for a college QB. He should fit well into Zac Taylors offense. |
| 2 | Washington | EDGE Chase Young OSU | The Redskins should not over think this decision. Take the best edge rusher available to bolster their line. |
| 3 | (T) Miami via Lions | QB Justin Herbert OREGON | Miami’s tanking gives them ammo to move up to guarantee a QB. They won’t be competitive this season so they can bring Herbert along at his pace. |
| 4 | (T) Chargers via Giants | QB Tua Tagovailoa BAMA | Tua is a great fit in the chargers system. He will thrive in LA and will have weapons from day one. |
| 5 | (T) Detroit via Dolphins | CB Jeffrey Okudah OSU | Detroit trades back for a 2nd and 3rd round pick and still gets the player they love at a position they really need. Okudah is a true lockdown corner. |
| 6 | (T) NY Giants via Chargers | LB Isaiah Simmons CLEMSON | A source for the Giants thinks GM Gettleman is drafting for his job. He moves back for extra swings and still gets Simmons. |
| 7 | Carolina | OT Tristan Wirfs IOWA | Carolina needs to pick best player available and also protect Teddy B. Wirfs is the best athlete on the O-lIne available who can get out ahead and run with CM. |
| 8 | (T)Las Vegas via Cardinals | WR Jerry Jeudy BAMA | GM Mike Mayock admitted they need and want a wideout. Jeudy is the best all around wideout and his route running will translate right away. |
| 9 | Jacksonville | DL Derrick Brown AUBURN | Brown dominated most every game he played in 2019. The rebuilding jags just need to add talent. |
| 10 | Cleveland | OT Andrew Thomas GEORGIA | The Brows solved RT with Jack Conklin and now they get the best pass protecting LT in Thomas. |
| 11 | NY Jets | OT Mekhi Becton LOUISVILLE | The Jets take the LT over a wideout with the goal of keeping Sam Darnold healthy and upright. |
| 12 | (T)Arizona via Raiders | WR Ceedee Lamb OKLAHOMA | Cardinals trade back for a 2nd round pick and still get to pair Lamb with his former college QB Kyler Murry. |
| 13 | San Francisco | WR Henry Ruggs BAMA | Ruggs is a perfect replacement for the 49ers losing Emmanuel Sanders. He will be a fun new toy for Kyle Shannahan. |
| 14 | (T)Minnesota via Buccaneers | CB C.J. Henderson FLORIDA | Minnesota needs better corner play and Henderson is a lockdown corner. |
| 15 | Denver | DL Javon Kinlaw SOUTH CAROLINA | Kinlaw will be a steal at pick 15. He is a physical specimen and will be a day one starter. |
| 16 | Atlanta | EDGE K’Lavon Chaisson LSU | Atlanta needs pass rush help. Chaisson seems to be a reach this high. |
| 17 | Dallas | S Grant Delpit LSU | Jerry Jones enjoys taking a big name. Delpit came into the year as a top 5 prospect who under performed. |
| 18 | Miami | OT Austin Jackson USC | Jackson is still raw but possesses a great frame and supers traits to develop to an all pro LT. Miami can afford to bring him along slowly. |
| 19 | las Vegas | CB Kristian Fulton LSU | Fulton had a rough Championship game but is an all around solid CB. Raiders needs help in the secondary. |
| 20 | Jacksonville | S Xavier McKinney BAMA | Some have McKinney as the best S and some have him as a day 2 pick. Jags like his aggressive style of play. |
| 21 | Philadelphia | WR Justin Jefferson LSU | The eagles will take a WR in the first round. Jefferson ran a solid 40 time and backed up his ridiculous stats this season. |
| 22 | (T) Tampa Bay via Vikings | OT Jedrick Wills BAMA | Wills falls farther than expected and played RT at Bama. This is a value pick and helps add talent to the O-line. |
| 23 | New England | QB Jordan Love UTAH ST. | Many think the Pats may trade up for Love. In this case they don’t need to and may finally have their Tom Brady replacement. |
| 24 | New Orleans | LB Patrick Queen LSU | With no pressing need the Saints take best player available. |
| 25 | Minnesota | WR Brandon Aiyuk ASU | Vikings replace Stefon Diggs with Aiyuk. Very similar skillsets. |
| 26 | Miami | RB Jonathan Taylor WISCONSIN | Taylor should be RB1 after a tremendous combine and three incredible years at Wisconsin. |
| 27 | (T)Indianapolis via Seahawks | Yetur Gross-Matos PENN ST. | Matos is more projection that stats at this point but his frame size and speed could make him a star down the line. |
| 28 | Baltimore | Kenneth Murray OKLAHOMA | Murray has the size speed and body to be a day 1 starter. Ravens add a quality player to shore up the defense. |
| 29 | Tennessee | Trevon Diggs BAMA | Diggs has great size and ball skills. He can help replace the loss of Logan Ryan. |
| 30 | Green Bay | OT Ezra Cleveland BOISE ST. | What a perfect match for the Packers. They need WR help but can address that in round 2 in a deep class. |
| 31 | San Francisco | DT Ross Blacklock TCU | The 49ers were dominant because of their front 4. Blacklock can help replace the loss of Deforest Buckner up front. |
| 32 | Kansas City | RB J.K. Dobbins OSU | The chiefs don’t need anymore weapons but that’s just what they get. Dobbins excels both rushing and receiving. |
