Full 7 Round NFL Mock Draft 2020 with Hudson ridley ’22
NFL 2020 Mock Draft
The date for the NFL draft is set, but unlike most events these days, it seems to be set in stone. Commissioner Roger Goodell announced that the first round of the NFL draft will still take place on Thursday April 23rd. There’s no better way to celebrate the only event in sports than by making a mock draft. The first round selection will come with an explanation of the pick. Rounds 2-7 will only have the team, player, position, and school.
Round 1
- Cincinnati: Joe Burrow – Quarterback – LSU
Joe Burrow is the favored first overall pick in many mock drafts. The Bengals need a quarterback. Burrow is a Heisman winning quarterback. It couldn’t be any simpler.
- Washington: Chase Young – Defensive end – Ohio State
Chase Young is arguably the best player in this 2020 draft. If the Bengals didn’t need a quarterback so bad Young would undoubtedly go number one. The Redskins have a lot of holes to fix and pass rush in one of them making this the perfect fit.
- Detroit: Jeffrey Okudah – Cornerback – Ohio State
Jeffrey Okudah is one of many talented Ohio State products in this year’s draft. The Lions lost Darius Slay to free agency and picking up Desmond Trufant won’t entirely fill the hole.
- NY Giants: Tristan Wirfs – Offensive tackle – Iowa
Tristan Wirfs had one of the best combine performances for a lineman in years. Wirfs ran a 4.85 second 40-yard dash at 6ft 5in 320lbs and tacked on a 36.5in vertical and a 121in broad jump. Pairing Wirfs with Saquon Barkley would cause an avalanche on outside run plays.
- Miami: Tua Tagovailoa: – Quarterback – Alabama
Tua Tagovailoa is one of the most intriguing prospects in a long time. He’s a complete quarterback which is hard to find at his age. The only problem is his lower body health. However, Tagovailoa and his trainers have confirmed that he’s back up to 100% healthy and fully functional.
- LA Chargers: Justin Herbert – Quarterback – Oregon
Justin Herbert would arguably have the best chance to succeed right away out of this year’s quarterback prospects. Dropping him on a nearly complete roster will help him grow quickly. Herbert would be the Chargers best quarterback option if they do not sign Cam Newton.
- Carolina: Derrick Brown – Defensive tackle – Auburn
Derrick Brown is a very under the radar player at defensive tackle but the Panthers desperately need him. After both Gerald McCoy and Dontari Poe left in free agency, the Panthers defensive line is nearly empty. Brown would be the perfect pass rushing and run stopping fill in.
- Arizona: Jedrick Wills – Offensive Tackle – Alabama
Jedrick Wills would help out a desperate Cardinals offensive line. After acquiring DeAndre Hopkins the Cardinals are set to jumpstart their passing game. Wills is nothing special but very solid and that’s exactly what you want from a tackle.
- Jacksonville: Isaiah Simmons – Linebacker/ Safety – Clemson
Isaiah Simmons is the most versatile player in this year’s draft. Simmons is extremely athletic with blazing fast speed who can not only pass rush but is also good in coverage. After losing most of their talent on defense a rebuild is definitely in order and this is a great way to start.
- Cleveland: Mekhi Becton – Offensive tackle – Louisville
Mekhi Becton bulldozing defenders to clear the way for Pro-bowler Nick Chubb is exactly what Browns fans envision in their dreams. After the arrest of Greg Robbison that tackle position is wide open. Becton is also the biggest player this year with a combine invite.
- NY Jets: Jerry Jeudy – Wide Receiver – Alabama
Jerry Jeudy is the first wide receiver to go off the board in this mock draft. Jeudy is said to be the next Julio Jones and paired up with Sam Darnold and Le’Veon Bell it might be the quarterback, running back, wide receiver trio that the Jets have been waiting for.
- Las Vegas: CeeDee Lamb – Wide Receiver – Oklahoma
CeeDee Lamb and Nelson Aghalor combined would be quite a step up for whoever is throwing the ball in Vegas. However, that quarterback may not be Carr or Mariota. Check pick number 19 for a prediction.
- San Francisco (Via IND): Henry Ruggs – Wide Receiver – Alabama
Henry Ruggs would be the final piece the 49ers need to take home the Lombardi trophy. The pair of Ruggs and Debo Samuel might make Jimmy G a little more comfortable in the pocket.
- Tampa Bay: Andrew Thomas – Offensive Tackle – Alabama
Andrew Thomas has been regarded by draft experts to be a high level player for a long time. This is the perfect opportunity to protect 42 year old Tom Brady.
- Denver: Justin Jefferson – Wide receiver – LSU
Justin Jefferson racked up stats in his last year of college at LSU.He caught more touchdowns in the Mercedes Benz superdome last season than Julio Jones. Jefferson is a truly underrated and special talent who would bring a lot to the Mile High.
- Atlanta: CJ Henderson – Cornerback – Florida
CJ Henderson has enough speed to keep up with any wide receiver so adding him to a desolate secondary can’t hurt the Falcons. A lot of talent on offense can get you a long way but defense wins championships.
- Dallas: Yetur Gross-Matos – Defensive end – Penn State
Yetur Gross-Matos has all the intangibles that you want in a solid pass rusher. He has size, speed, and explosiveness. Pairing that with a good hardworking demeanor is what will make Gross-Matos successful.
- Miami (Via PIT): Javon Kinlaw – Defensive tackle – South Carolina
Javon Kinlaw has been predicted to go higher than the 18th pick in many mock drafts but it seems like teams may want to prioritize positions in this year’s draft because of its depth. The Dolphins will most likely take the best available player which takes Kinlaw off the board.
- Las Vegas (Via CHI): Jordan Love – Quarterback – Utah State
Jordan Love came out of nowhere when the season ended catching scouts eyes with his physical intangibles. Love is virtually a carbon copy of Jameis Winston which would really sting for new Raider addition Marcus Marriota.
- Jacksonville (Via LAR): A.J. Terrell – Cornerback – Clemson
A.J. Terrell is one of the most athletic corners in the draft who will most likely turn out to be a great plug and play player. He can pick up right where A.J Bouye left off.
- Philadelphia: Kenneth Murray – Linebacker – Oklahoma
Kenneth Murray turned a lot of heads at the beginning of the season until his momentum slowly died off. Murray is a pass rusher who is solid in coverage making him a good choice to replace Kamu Grugier-Hill.
- Minnesota (Via BUF): Tee Higgins – Wide Receiver – Clemson
Tee Higgins was one of the most explosive and exciting players in college football last year getting to shine on a stacked Clemson team. After losing Stefon Diggs and Laquon Treadwell a wide receiver is exactly what the purple people eaters need.
- New England: K’Lavon Chaisson – Defensive end – LSU
K’Lavon Chaisson was another player that slipped in this mock draft. Make no mistake though Chaisson is very talented, and with some coaching from defensive mastermind Bill Belicheck he could become a Pro-bowler in years to come.
- New Orleans: Patrick Queen – Linebacker – LSU
Patrick Queen is another possible LSU first rounder. The Saints are pretty strong at every position and could use the best overall player at this point which would be Queen.
- Minnesota: A.J. Epenesa – Defensive end – Iowa
A.J. Epenesa started the year at the five to eight spot in most mock drafts but fell all the way down to 25 in this one. Epenesa would replace Everson Griffen on that defensive line.
- Miami (Via Hou): D’Andre Swift – Running back – Georgia
D’Andre Swift is the first running back to go off the board in this year’s draft. First round running backs are always risky but Jordan Howard is not a starting quality back so the Dolphins will have to look elsewhere. Swift is arguably the best running back in this draft.
- Seattle: Austin Jackson – Offensive Tackle – USC
Austin Jackson to Seattle would be like putting an ok sized band-aid on a crack in a dam. Jackson is talented and a good fit for sure but Seattle lost a boatload of offensive lineman this offseason so they need to expand the size of that band-aid quick.
- Baltimore: Zack Baun – Linebacker – Wisconsin
Zack Baun is this year’s star linebacker out of Wisconsin. It seems like every year a good badger linebacker declares for the draft. The Raven’s main issue last year was defense and a high powered offense alone can only do so much.
- Tennessee: Laviska Shenault – Wide receiver – Colorado
Laviska Shenault, if picked by the Titans, would be the second wide receiver the Titans have used a first round pick on in as many years. Derrick Henry can only do so much when it comes to carrying a team.
- Green Bay: Ross Blacklock – Defensive tackle – TCU
Ross Blacklock is a good addition to help sure up the swiss cheese (no pun intended) run defense of the cheeseheads. The Packers could have looked for a future quarterback with this pick but there will be more chances later on.
- San Francisco: Xavier McKinney – Safety – Alabama
Xavier McKinney is the best safety in a draft with little to no depth at the position. This is one of two puzzle pieces the 49ers need in order to keep the wheels turning.
- Kansas City: Jonathan Taylor – Running back – Wisconsin
Jonathan Taylor had quite the career at Wisconsin but it’s on to bigger and better things for the former Badger. Even though Dameian Williams was amazing in the superbowl he was quiet the rest of the season. A Mahomes, Hill, Taylor, Kelce team would be unstoppable.
