Updated: Athletic Mock Draft; All 255 picks


Recommended Posts

11. New York Jets – Jedrick Wills, OT, Alabama
The Jets have a solid interior line, but the tackles are still an area that needs to be addressed. The biggest concern with Wills is he has been a right tackle only his entire life so a move to left tackle would be a projection, but he has all the talent to make the move and thrive.

48. New York Jets – Laviska Shenault, WR, Colorado

68. New York Jets (from NYG) – Cameron Dantzler, CB, Mississippi State

79. New York Jets – Julian Okwara, Edge, Notre Dame

120. New York Jets – Shane Lemieux, OG, Oregon

158. New York Jets – Colby Parkinson, TE, Stanford

191. New York Jets – James Morgan, QB, FlU

211. New York Jets (from KC) – Michael Warren, RB, Cincinnati

 

 

A few weeks before the draft each year, I attempt to do one seven-round mock draft, covering all 255 picks.

It’s an exhaustive exercise because I’m not focusing just on team needs. I also pay close attention to fit (scheme and culture) and the breadcrumbs (draft trends, visits, workouts, etc.). However, it was tougher this year without the 30 visits and one-on-one workouts. We have knowledge of team meetings at the combine and FaceTime or Skype calls, but teams are allowed unlimited virtual meetings as long as they stay under an hour in length.

Like always, I included a team-by-team view of each organization’s draft class at the bottom so it is easier to see each team’s draft haul.

Here we go.

First Round

1. Cincinnati Bengals – Joe Burrow, QB, LSU
The Bengals do things their own way, but it would still be a shock if Burrow is not the top pick to Cincinnati. Nothing more to say here.

2. Washington Redskins – Chase Young, Edge, Ohio State
No surprise at No. 1 and no surprise at No. 2. Young has been the top player in the draft since the summer and nothing has changed. It is highly unlikely the Redskins will receive a lucrative enough trade offer to move away from this pick.

3. Detroit Lions – Jeff Okudah, CB, Ohio State
The Lions are hoping a team trades up to No. 2 for a quarterback so Chase Young falls in their laps, but if that doesn’t happen (and they don’t receive a trade offer to move back), they will be just fine with his Ohio State teammate. With Darius Slay now in Philadelphia, Okudah will grow into the CB1 role in Detroit.

4. New York Giants – Tristan Wirfs, OT, Iowa
The Giants’ decision could come down to their highest-ranked tackle or a defensive playmaker like Isaiah Simmons. One of the reasons I think they will lean toward tackle is the impact that will make on other recent first-round picks like Saquon Barkley and Daniel Jones.

5. Miami Dolphins – Justin Herbert, QB, Oregon
We are all guessing when it comes to the Dolphins and which player they will draft here. Many around the league feel strongly that this will be a quarterback, but there is no consensus on which one. Since the Combine, I have leaned towards Herbert.

6. Los Angeles Chargers – Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Alabama
We aren’t talking enough about Tagovailoa and the potential of him dropping farther than this due to the durability and medical concerns. Each team has its own appetite for risk and we don’t know how the Chargers feel, but it might be worth the risk for that organization.

7. Carolina Panthers – Isaiah Simmons, LB, Clemson
As Matt Rhule builds the roster his way, he is looking for dynamic athletes with football character and Simmons falls in that category. And especially with the retirement of Luke Kuechly, Simmons brings another impact player who can fill multiple roles.

8. Arizona Cardinals – Derrick Brown, DT, Auburn
There is a good chance this pick comes down to the trenches, either offensive or defensive line. And while I think upgrading the right tackle spot should be the priority, the Cardinals have been searching for that hog molly on the defensive line who can help reset the line of scrimmage.

9. Jacksonville Jaguars – CJ Henderson, CB, Florida
The Jaguars cornerback depth chart is a group of replacement-level players and Henderson is worthy of top-10 consideration so this pick is about talent and need. Henderson with his 4.3 speed and 6-1 size won’t be available when Jacksonville drafts again at No. 20

10. Cleveland Browns – Mekhi Becton, OT, Louisville
The Browns made a sizable upgrade at right tackle with the signing of Jack Conklin, but left tackle remains a large question mark. You could make an argument for any of these top tackles here or even a trade down for a player like Ezra Cleveland, but I think Becton fits what they want on offense.

11. New York Jets – Jedrick Wills, OT, Alabama
The Jets have a solid interior line, but the tackles are still an area that needs to be addressed. The biggest concern with Wills is he has been a right tackle only his entire life so a move to left tackle would be a projection, but he has all the talent to make the move and thrive.

12. Las Vegas Raiders – CeeDee Lamb, WR, Oklahoma
If Henderson is still available, I could easily see the Raiders going CB and then WR with their two first-round picks. But with him off the board, they get their choice of the top receiver and Lamb seems to be a great fit with his ball skills, football IQ and YAC skills.

13. San Francisco 49ers (from IND) – Henry Ruggs, WR, Alabama
The 49ers will be hunting for another offensive playmaker in this draft and Ruggs could be that guy. He is a ridiculous athlete who could be a lot of fun in Kyle Shanahan’s offense, forcing defenses to account for him, Deebo Samuel and George Kittle.

14. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Andrew Thomas, OT, Georgia
The Buccaneers know they have a window to win right now and the best way to do that is help protect Tom Brady. Right tackle is currently a question spot, but Thomas would give them immediate depth with the potential to be a high-end starter.

15. Denver Broncos – Jerry Jeudy, WR, Alabama
The Broncos are looking for another playmaker opposite Courtland Sutton and I hear they really like CeeDee Lamb and Denzel Mims. But they also really like Jerry Jeudy with his brake-and-balance skills to uncover at will mid-route.

16. Atlanta Falcons – K’Lavon Chaisson, Edge, LSU
The Falcons were busy in free agency as they looked to upgrade at edge rusher, but they are far from set at the position. Chaisson is similar to Vic Beasley in some ways, but he has the potential for more diversity as an NFL player, both rushing the passer and dropping in space.

17. Dallas Cowboys – Trevon Diggs, CB, Alabama
The Falcons break the Cowboys heart because Chaisson is who Dallas wants. And with their top two options (Chaisson, Henderson) off the board, I think the Cowboys’ focus might shift to the Alabama secondary where Diggs or Xavier McKinney make sense.

18. Miami Dolphins (from PIT) – Austin Jackson, OT, USC
Regardless of which quarterback the Dolphins draft, Miami needs to add reinforcements at tackle to help protect him. Jackson will make youthful mistakes as a rookie, but he might also outplay his draft spot if he lives up to his immense potential.

19. Las Vegas Raiders (from CHI) – A.J. Terrell, CB, Clemson
The Raiders-Clemson pipeline is alive and well. Terrell is a big-bodied corner with speed to stay attached to routes up and down the field. His last college game wasn’t pretty vs. LSU’s Ja’Marr Chase, but his body of work as a player could land him in the top-25.

20. Jacksonville Jaguars (from LAR) – Javon Kinlaw, DT, South Carolina
Kinlaw isn’t the most clean prospect with his average production and minor medical concerns, but his talent is unquestioned. The Jaguars went to the SEC with their first two picks last year (Josh Allen and Jawaan Taylor) and they might do it again with Henderson and Kinlaw.

21. Philadelphia Eagles – Kenneth Murray, LB, Oklahoma
Under Howie Roseman, the Eagles traditionally draft the best player available at a position of relative need in the first round and Murray fits that criteria. He can be late to sort at times, but his play speed and competitive energy will quickly make him a fan favorite in Philadelphia.

22. Minnesota Vikings (from BUF) – Denzel Mims, WR, Baylor
With the first-rounder they received from Buffalo in the Stefon Diggs trade, the Vikings might turn around and add his replacement at receiver. No player has helped himself more since the end of the season than Mims, who several teams grade as a top-25 caliber prospect in this draft.

23. New England Patriots – Marlon Davidson, DL, Auburn
Some NFL scouts see Davidson as a “Jumbo” end while others see a penetrating three-technique. I’m guessing Bill Belichick sees a natural disruptor who offers inside-outside versatility in his front. His balance and hand use allow him to shake free from blockers.

24. New Orleans Saints – Patrick Queen, LB, LSU
Queen was one of the top prep athletes in Louisiana and was a critical piece of LSU’s national championship team this past season. Being drafted to his home state Saints would be a great next chapter in his story, giving New Orleans an explosive and rangy defender.

25. Minnesota Vikings – Ezra Cleveland, OT, Boise State
The Vikings drafted one of this year’s top risers with their initial first-rounder and they take another riser here. Cleveland played the entire 2019 season with a turf toe issue and still produced quality tape. That combined with his testing and football character and he has a great shot of landing in Round One.

26. Miami Dolphins (from HOU) – J.K. Dobbins, RB, Ohio State
It is tough to find landing spots for running backs in this year’s first round, but the Dolphins could be one of the destinations. Brian Flores is looking for a tone-setting back who can help create an offensive identity and Dobbins fits that mold.

27. Seattle Seahawks – Josh Uche, Edge, Michigan
The Seahawks are always a wild card on draft day so I wouldn’t be surprised to see a stunner here like Wisconsin’s Jonathan Taylor. But I’m going with Uche, who gives Seattle an explosive edge threat and a player just scratching the surface of his ability.

28. Baltimore Ravens – Zack Baun, LB, Wisconsin
Although he was almost exclusively a rusher at Wisconsin, Baun showed flashes of being able to do everything for the Badgers. He can be an off-ball linebacker for the Ravens while also giving them blitzing options on subpackages.

29. Tennessee Titans – Yetur Gross-Matos, Edge, Penn State
The Titans added Vic Beasley and Harold Landry is a promising player, but more edge rushing depth is needed in Tennessee. Gross-Matos has the versatile talent where he can stand up, put his hand on the ground or even reduce inside as a three-technique in some packages – the type of versatility that will appeal to Mike Vrabel.

30. Green Bay Packers – Justin Jefferson, WR, LSU
The Packers traditionally are a team that waits until Day 2 to draft receivers (Javon Walker in 2002 is the only receiver Green Bay has drafted in the first round since 1989). But it will be tough to pass up a talent like Jefferson and the impact he would make on the Packers’ offense.

31. San Francisco 49ers – Cesar Ruiz, iOL, Michigan
With the 49ers not picking again until the fifth round, good bet they look to trade back (maybe for a team looking to trade up for Jordan Love?). But if they stay put, upgrading the interior offensive line is on the priority list and Ruiz has big upside as a center-guard.

32. Kansas City Chiefs – Jaylon Johnson, CB, Utah
After Okudah and Henderson, there are differing opinions about the order the next corners will come off the board. And Johnson is right there in the mix to be drafted in the first round.

Second Round

33. Cincinnati Bengals – Josh Jones, OT, Houston
34. Indianapolis Colts (from WAS) – Jordan Love, QB, Utah State
There is a good chance a team trades into the first round to draft Love, but that could be the Colts or he could fall to them in the second round, giving the organization a quarterback succession plan for the future.

35. Detroit Lions – Jonathan Taylor, RB, Wisconsin
36. New York Giants – A.J. Epenesa, Edge, Iowa
37. Los Angeles Chargers – Brandon Aiyuk, WR, Arizona State
38. Carolina Panthers – Kristian Fulton, CB, LSU
39. Miami Dolphins – Xavier McKinney, DS, Alabama
40. Houston Texans (from ARI) – Ross Blacklock, DT, TCU
41. Cleveland Browns – Jeremy Chinn, DS, Southern Illinois
42. Jacksonville Jaguars – Grant Delpit, DS, LSU
43. Chicago Bears (from LVR) – Lloyd Cushenberry, iOL, LSU
44. Indianapolis Colts – Michael Pittman, WR, USC
Of all the picks in this mock draft, this might be my favorite fit. The Colts are looking for players with high football character and Pittman also fits the mold of the power forward receiver who can outrebound the football downfield.

45. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – D’Andre Swift, RB, Georgia
46. Denver Broncos – Noah Igbinoghene, CB, Auburn
47. Atlanta Falcons – Jordan Elliott, DT, Missouri
48. New York Jets – Laviska Shenault, WR, Colorado
49. Pittsburgh Steelers – Clyde Edwards-Helaire, RB, LSU
50. Chicago Bears – Curtis Weaver, Edge, Boise State
51. Dallas Cowboys – Terrell Lewis, Edge, Alabama
52. Los Angeles Rams – Tee Higgins, WR, Clemson
The Rams unloaded Brandin Cooks, but with Cooper Kupp best in the slot, they might be looking for an outside receiver who can be a matchup type downfield. Higgins has the catch radius and reflexes to be a specialized weapon in the NFL.

53. Philadelphia Eagles – Jalen Reagor, WR, TCU
54. Buffalo Bills – Jeff Gladney, CB, TCU
55. Baltimore Ravens (from ATL) – KJ Hamler, WR, Penn State
56. Miami Dolphins (from NO) – Jonathan Greenard, Edge, Florida
57. Los Angeles Rams – Isaiah Wilson, OT, Georgia
Wilson is a tough player to get a read on – some teams think he will be a first-round pick while others think he falls outside the top 50. He falls a little in this scenario, but that works out for the Rams, who find their eventual replacement for Andrew Whitworth.

58. Minnesota Vikings – Antoine Winfield Jr., DS, Minnesota
59. Seattle Seahawks – Kyle Dugger, DS, Lenoir-Rhyne
60. Baltimore Ravens – Robert Hunt, iOL, Louisiana
61. Tennessee Titans – Damon Arnette, CB, Ohio State
62. Green Bay Packers – Ben Bartch, OT, St. John’s (Minn.)
63. Kansas City Chiefs (from SF) – Chase Claypool, WR/TE, Notre Dame
The Chiefs have plenty of bodies at the receiver position, but Claypool gives them a different type of pass catcher who can play inside or outside and provide immediate depth at the receiver and tight end positions.

64. Seattle Seahawks (from KC) – Matt Peart, OT, Connecticut

Third Round

65. Cincinnati Bengals – Akeem Davis-Gaither, LB, Appalachian State
66. Washington Redskins – Cole Kmet, TE, Notre Dame
67. Detroit Lions – Justin Madubuike, DT, Texas A&M
68. New York Jets (from NYG) – Cameron Dantzler, CB, Mississippi State
69. Carolina Panthers – James Lynch, DT, Baylor
The relationship between Matt Rhule and Lynch is tough to ignore when doing a mock draft. It wouldn’t be a surprise if Rhule makes a few moves to ensure he drafts Lynch, someone he describes as “one of the most selfless, diehard players I’ve ever been around.”

70. Miami Dolphins – Matt Hennessy, OC, Temple
71. Los Angeles Chargers – Ashtyn Davis, DS, California
72. Arizona Cardinals – Cam Akers, RB, Florida State
73. Jacksonville Jaguars – Darrynton Evans, RB, Appalachian State
74. Cleveland Browns – Jordyn Brooks, LB, Texas Tech
75. Indianapolis Colts – Adam Trautman, TE, Dayton
76. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Jacob Eason, QB, Washington
I don’t know if Eason will fall this far, but it would be a great fit for both sides. Eason needs a vertical offense where he can sit and develop. And being part of the same quarterback room as Tom Brady won’t hurt his chances of becoming a starter one day.

77. Denver Broncos – Willie Gay, LB, Mississippi State
78. Atlanta Falcons – Jake Fromm, QB, Georgia
79. New York Jets – Julian Okwara, Edge, Notre Dame
80. Las Vegas Raiders – Jalen Hurts, QB, Oklahoma
81. Las Vegas Raiders (from CHI) – John Simpson, OG, Clemson
82. Dallas Cowboys – Logan Wilson, LB, Wyoming
Linebacker is a sneaky important need for the Cowboys and Wilson is one of my favorite players in the draft. He was a high school cornerback who moved to linebacker and logged over 400 tackles as a four-year starter and three-year captain.

83. Denver Broncos (from PIT) – Davon Hamilton, DT, Ohio State
84. Los Angeles Rams – Amik Robertson, CB, Louisiana Tech
85. Detroit Lions (from PHI) – Prince Tega Wanogho, OT, Auburn
86. Buffalo Bills – Darrell Taylor, Edge, Tennessee
87. New England Patriots – Harrison Bryant, TE, Florida Atlantic
88. New Orleans Saints – Van Jefferson, WR, Florida
89. Minnesota Vikings – Neville Gallimore, DT, Oklahoma
90. Houston Texans – Bradlee Anae, Edge, Utah
91. Las Vegas Raiders (from HOU) – Terrell Burgess, DS, Utah
I haven’t talked to Mike Mayock specifically about Burgess, but I would bet good money he has a high grade on Burgess. A former defensive back himself, Mayock has an understandable affinity for smart, tough safeties who can cover – this would be a great fit for both sides.

92. Baltimore Ravens – Raekwon Davis, DL, Alabama
93. Tennessee Titans – Lucas Niang, OT, TCU
94. Green Bay Packers – Albert Okwuegbunam, TE, Missouri
95. Denver Broncos (from SF) – Hakeem Adeniji, OT/G, Kansas
96. Kansas City Chiefs – Damien Lewis, OG, LSU
97. Cleveland Browns (from HOU) – Trevis Gipson, Edge, Tulsa
98. New England Patriots – Jabari Zuniga, Edge, Florida
99. New York Giants – Bryan Edwards, WR, South Carolina
Out of sight and out of mind – unfortunately that has been the theme of Edwards’ draft process after injuries sidelined him for the Senior Bowl and combine. But teams know what type of competitor he is after his record-setting career for the Gamecocks.

100. New England Patriots – KJ Hill, WR, Ohio State
101. Seattle Seahawks – Nick Harris, OC, Washington
102. Pittsburgh Steelers – Antonio Gandy-Golden, WR, Liberty
103. Philadelphia Eagles – Reggie Robinson, CB, Tulsa
104. Los Angeles Rams – Malik Harrison, LB, Ohio State
105. Minnesota Vikings – Bryce Hall, CB, Virginia
106. Baltimore Ravens – Zack Moss, RB, Utah

Fourth Round

107. Cincinnati Bengals – Ben Bredeson, OG, Michigan
108. Washington Redskins – Josiah Scott, CB, Michigan State
109. Detroit Lions – Jonah Jackson, OG, Ohio State
110. New York Giants – Kenny Robinson, FS, XFL
Robinson is expected to be drafted in the mid-rounds, which would make him the first XFL player selected in the NFL Draft.

111. Houston Texans (from MIA) – Gabriel Davis, WR, UCF
112. Los Angeles Chargers – Alex Highsmith, Edge, Charlotte
113. Carolina Panthers – Tyler Biadasz, OC, Wisconsin
114. Arizona Cardinals – Hunter Bryant, TE, Washington
115. Cleveland Browns – Donovan Peoples-Jones, WR, Michigan
116. Jacksonville Jaguars – D.J. Wonnum, Edge, South Carolina
117. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Devin Duvernay, WR, Texas
118. Denver Broncos – K’Von Wallace, DS, Clemson
119. Atlanta Falcons – Antonio Gibson, RB, Memphis
While he lined up primarily at receiver in college, Gibson projects best in the backfield where he can be a playmaker with the ball in his hands. He scored a touchdown every 5.5 times he touched the ball on offense in 2019 for Memphis.

120. New York Jets – Shane Lemieux, OG, Oregon
121. Las Vegas Raiders – Leki Fotu, DT, Utah
122. Indianapolis Colts – Brandon Jones, DS, Texas
123. Dallas Cowboys – Devin Asiasi, TE, UCLA
124. Pittsburgh Steelers – Troy Dye, LB, Oregon
125. New England Patriots (from CHI) – Davion Taylor, LB, Colorado
126. Los Angeles Rams – Jonathan Garvin, Edge, Miami (Fla.)
127. Philadelphia Eagles – AJ Dillon, RB, Boston College
The Eagles are expected to target a “big” back at some point in this year’s draft and at 247 pounds, Dillon certainly fits the bill. He needed only three seasons to become Boston College’s all-time leading rusher.

128. Buffalo Bills – Joshua Kelley, RB, UCLA
129. Baltimore Ravens (from NE) – Alton Robinson, Edge, Syracuse
130. New Orleans Saints – Troy Pride Jr., CB, Notre Dame
131. Arizona Cardinals (from HOU) – Michael Ojemudia, CB, Iowa
132. Minnesota Vikings – Khalid Kareem, Edge, Notre Dame
133. Seattle Seahawks – Lynn Bowden, WR, Kentucky
134. Baltimore Ravens – Markus Bailey, LB, Purdue
135. Pittsburgh Steelers (from MIA) – Logan Stenberg, OG, Kentucky
136. Green Bay Packers – Justin Strnad, LB, Wake Forest
137. Jacksonville Jaguars (from DEN) – Collin Johnson, WR, Texas
138. Kansas City Chiefs – Eno Benjamin, RB, Arizona State
139. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – McTelvin Agim, DT, Arkansas
140. Jacksonville Jaguars (from CHI) – Kevin Dotson, OG, Louisiana
The highest-drafted non-combine draft pick in this scenario, Dotson put together an All-American senior season and put himself in the mid-round discussion. He controls the line of scrimmage like a pissed off club bouncer.

141. Miami Dolphins – Julian Blackmon, DS, Utah
142. Washington Redskins – Francis Bernard, LB, Utah
143. Atlanta Falcons (from BAL) – Darnay Holmes, CB, UCLA
144. Seattle Seahawks – Dane Jackson, CB, Pittsburgh
145. Philadelphia Eagles – Geno Stone, DS, Iowa
146. Philadelphia Eagles – James Proche, WR, SMU

Fifth Round

147. Cincinnati Bengals – Brycen Hopkins, TE, Purdue
148. Carolina Panthers – Tyre Phillips, OT, Mississippi State
149. Detroit Lions – Tyler Johnson, WR, Minnesota
150. New York Giants – Keith Ismael, OC, San Diego State
151. Los Angeles Chargers – Joe Bachie, LB, Michigan State
152. Carolina Panthers – Kenny Willekes, Edge, Michigan State
A former walk-on, Willekes lacks ideal length and athleticism for the position, but he competes with a touch of insanity. His impeccable character and work ethic will be appealing to Matt Rhule and the culture he is establishing in Carolina.

153. Miami Dolphins (from ARI) – Stanford Samuels, CB, Florida State
154. Miami Dolphins (from PIT) – Rashard Lawrence, DL, LSU
155. Minnesota Vikings (from BUF) – Cameron Clark, OT/G, Charlotte
156. San Francisco 49ers (from DEN) – L’Jarius Sneed, CB, Louisiana Tech
157. Jacksonville Jaguars (from ATL) – Charlie Heck, OT, North Carolina
158. New York Jets – Colby Parkinson, TE, Stanford
159. Las Vegas Raiders – Tanner Muse, LB, Clemson
Another Raiders-Clemson connection, Muse might struggle to see consistent snaps on defense, but with his speed and toughness, he should play for a long time as a special teams ace.

160. Indianapolis Colts – Jason Strowbridge, DL, North Carolina
161. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Josh Metellus, DS, Michigan
162. Washington Redskins (from SEA) – Saahdiq Charles, OT, LSU
163. Chicago Bears – J.R. Reed, DS, Georgia
164. Dallas Cowboys – Jack Driscoll, OT, Auburn
165. Jacksonville Jaguars (from LAR) – Javaris Davis, CB, Auburn
166. Detroit Lions (from PHI) – Anthony Gordon, QB, Washington State
167. Buffalo Bills – Jacob Phillips, LB, LSU
168. Philadelphia Eagles (from NE) – Derrek Tuszka, Edge, North Dakota State
169. New Orleans Saints – Larrell Murchison, DT, NC State
170. Baltimore Ravens (from MIN) – Thaddeus Moss, TE, LSU
171. Houston Texans – Danny Pinter, OG, Ball State
172. New England Patriots (from DET) – Anfernee Jennings, Edge, Alabama
173. Miami Dolphins (from LAR) – Netane Muti, OG, Fresno State
If not for the durability concerns, Muti has the skill set that warrants top-50 overall consideration. With the most selections in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Dolphins can afford to take a chance on a player with his lengthy medical history but impressive talent.

174. Tennessee Titans – Anthony McFarland, RB, Maryland
175. Green Bay Packers – A.J. Green, CB, Oklahoma State
176. San Francisco 49ers – Alex Taylor, OT, South Carolina State
177. Kansas City Chiefs – Benito Jones, DT, Ole Miss
178. Denver Broncos – Isaiah Hodgins, WR, Oregon State
179. Dallas Cowboys – Jordan Fuller, DS, Ohio State

Sixth Round

180. Cincinnati Bengals – Harrison Hand, CB, Temple
181. Denver Broncos (from WAS) – Carter Coughlin, EDGE, Minnesota
182. Detroit Lions – Braden Mann, PT, Texas A&M
183. New York Giants – Evan Weaver, LB, California
184. Carolina Panthers – Isaiah Coulter, WR, Rhode Island
185. Miami Dolphins – John Hightower, WR, Boise State
186. Los Angeles Chargers – Trey Adams, OT, Washington
187. Cleveland Browns (from ARI) – John Reid, CB, Penn State
Reid doesn’t pass the eye test at only 5-10 and 187 pounds, but he was productive (37 passes defended, seven interceptions) and tested well, posting the best short shuttle (3.97) at this year’s combine. Those numbers will be more impressive to the Browns than the size measurements.

188. Buffalo Bills (from CLE) – Jon Runyan, OT/G, Michigan
189. Jacksonville Jaguars – Clay Johnston, LB, Baylor
190. Philadelphia Eagles (from ATL) – Kamal Martin, LB, Minnesota
191. New York Jets – James Morgan, QB, FlU
192. Green Bay Packers (from LVR) – Lamical Perine, RB, Florida
193. Indianapolis Colts – DeeJay Dallas, RB, Miami (Fla.)
194. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Darryl Williams, OG/C, Mississippi State
195. New England Patriots (from DEN) – Tyler Bass, PK, Georgia Southern
After cutting Stephen Gostkowski, the Patriots need to address the kicker position this offseason. Several teams believe Bass will be the first kicker drafted in April.

196. Chicago Bears – Ke’Shawn Vaughn, RB, Vanderbilt
197. Indianapolis Colts (from MIA) – Brian Cole, DB, Mississippi State
198. Pittsburgh Steelers – Broderick Washington, DT, Texas Tech
199. Los Angeles Rams – Solomon Kindley, OG, Georgia
200. Chicago Bears (from PHI) – Quez Watkins, WR, Southern Miss
201. Minnesota Vikings (from BUF) – Shaquille Quarterman, LB, Miami (Fla.)
202. Arizona Cardinals (from NE) – James Smith-Williams, Edge, NC State
203. New Orleans Saints – Raymond Calais, RB, Louisiana
204. New England Patriots (from HOU) – Jake Luton, QB, Oregon State
205. Minnesota Vikings – Michael Onwenu, OG, Michigan
206. Jacksonville Jaguars (from SEA) – Josiah Deguara, TE/HB, Cincinnati
The Jaguars signed Tyler Eifert this offseason and won’t be giving up on Josh Oliver just yet, but Jacksonville can use more depth at the position. Aside from his offensive contributions, Deguara will be a standout on special teams.

207. Buffalo Bills (from NE) – Antoine Brooks, DS, Maryland
208. Green Bay Packers (from TEN) – Robert Windsor, DL, Penn State
209. Green Bay Packers – Daniel Thomas, DS, Auburn
210. San Francisco 49ers – Alohi Gilman, DS, Notre Dame
211. New York Jets (from KC) – Michael Warren, RB, Cincinnati
212. New England Patriots – Tremayne Anchrum, OG, Clemson
213. New England Patriots – Kindle Vildor, CB, Georgia Southern
214. Seattle Seahawks – James Robinson, RB, Illinois State
Robinson is a very Seahawks-style runner with his explosive testing numbers (40-inch vertical) and workhorse style ability in college (5,218 all-purpose yards).

Seventh Round

215. Cincinnati Bengals – Azur Kamara, Edge, Kansas
The Bengals have not been shy about their interest in Kamara, scheduling multiple meetings and attending his pro day. A native of Ivory Coast, Kamara is still very raw, but he is a 4.5 athlete with plenty of potential.

216. Washington Redskins – David Woodward, LB, Utah State
217. San Francisco 49ers (from DET) – Malcolm Roach, DL, Texas
218. New York Giants – Rodrigo Blankenship, PK, Georgia
219. Minnesota Vikings (from MIA) – Jauan Jennings, WR, Tennessee
220. Los Angeles Chargers – Dalton Keene, TE, Virginia Tech
221. Carolina Panthers – JaMycal Hasty, RB, Baylor
222. Arizona Cardinals – Cam Brown, LB, Penn State
223. Jacksonville Jaguars – Raequan Williams, DT, Michigan State
224. Tennessee Titans (from CLE) – Khalil Davis, DT, Nebraska
225. Baltimore Ravens (from NYJ) – Cohl Cabral, OC, Arizona State
226. Chicago Bears (from LVR) – Parnell Motley, CB, Oklahoma
227. Miami Dolphins (from IND) – Jonah Williams, DL, Weber State
228. Atlanta Falcons (from PHI) – Quintez Cephus, WR, Wisconsin
Cephus disappointed at the combine with a 4.73 40-yard dash, but he improved that number at his pro day (4.62) and his basketball background shows at the catch point. Growing up an hour outside of Atlanta, he has the talent to stick on the roster and outplay this draft spot.

229. Washington Redskins (from DEN) – Cole McDonald, QB, Hawaii
230. New England Patriots (from ATL) – Joe Reed, WR, Virginia
231. Dallas Cowboys – Cordel Iwuagwu, OG, TCU
232. Pittsburgh Steelers – Trevon Hill, Edge, Miami (Fla.)
233. Chicago Bears – Colton McKivitz, OT, West Virginia
234. Los Angeles Rams – Trishton Jackson, WR, Syracuse
235. Detroit Lions (from NE) – Cale Garrett, LB, Missouri
236. Green Bay Packers (from CLE) – Quartney Davis, WR, Texas A&M
237. Tennessee Titans (from DEN) – Kalija Lipscomb, WR, Vanderbilt
238. New York Giants (from NO) – Jared Pinkney, TE, Vanderbilt
239. Buffalo Bills (from MIN) – Michael Turk, PT, Arizona State
240. Houston Texans – Lamar Jackson, CB, Nebraska
241. New England Patriots (from SEA) – Terence Steele, OT, Texas Tech
242. Green Bay Packers (from BAL) – Calvin Throckmorton, OG/C, Oregon
Few collegiate resumes are as impressive as Throckmorton’s. A four-year starter, he started 52 straight games for the Ducks at four positions (everywhere on the line except left guard), allowing only one sack over his final 45 starts in college.

243. Tennessee Titans – Kyle Hinton, OC, Washburn
244. Cleveland Browns (from GB) – Cheyenne O’Grady, TE, Arkansas

11. New York Jets – Jedrick Wills, OT, Alabama
The Jets have a solid interior line, but the tackles are still an area that needs to be addressed. The biggest concern with Wills is he has been a right tackle only his entire life so a move to left tackle would be a projection, but he has all the talent to make the move and thrive.

We don’t need to draft a TE this year.  I would be very disappointed if we spent one of our draft picks on the tight end.. I think Herndon is going to be pretty special if he can stay healthy and Ryan Griffin is cool.

I'm okay with Shenault but not if he's our only WR.  If we grabbed another one in the 3rd, I'd be much happier.

We had picks 68 and 79. The only WRs chooses in the 3rd were ...

We don't need a TE this year, then again no one drafts a prospect in the 6th round base on current year needs.

What?!  That is not accurate.  Wasn’t DT Shepard a 6th td pick.  He isn’t a beast but he is a quality rotational player.I know what you mean that by the time you get to the six and seventh round you’re just picking someone as a gamble but you can get some good players in this draft in the sixth round.

 I know what you mean that by the time you get to the six and seventh round you’re just picking someone as a gamble but you can get some good players in this draft in the sixth round this year.  There will definitely be some quality offensive guards in the sixth

Not a huge fan of Shenault.  Would rather go with Hamler. More explosive and JD is looking for explosion.

Hamler is tiny.  I don't mind the idea, but I'd question it in the 2nd.  He is faster, but I don't know if I'd use the term "explosive."  Shenault has 50 lbs on Hamler.  Neither of them tested much.  I find them both interesting, but we probably need more of a standard starting WR than either can be relied on for week 1.

A few weeks before the draft each year, I attempt to do one seven-round mock draft, covering all 255 picks.

It’s an exhaustive exercise because I’m not focusing just on team needs. I also pay close attention to fit (scheme and culture) and the breadcrumbs (draft trends, visits, workouts, etc.). However, it was tougher this year without the 30 visits and one-on-one workouts. We have knowledge of team meetings at the combine and FaceTime or Skype calls, but teams are allowed unlimited virtual meetings as long as they stay under an hour in length.

Like always, I included a team-by-team view of each organization’s draft class at the bottom so it is easier to see each team’s draft haul.

Here we go.

First Round

1. Cincinnati Bengals – Joe Burrow, QB, LSU
The Bengals do things their own way, but it would still be a shock if Burrow is not the top pick to Cincinnati. Nothing more to say here.

2. Washington Redskins – Chase Young, Edge, Ohio State
No surprise at No. 1 and no surprise at No. 2. Young has been the top player in the draft since the summer and nothing has changed. It is highly unlikely the Redskins will receive a lucrative enough trade offer to move away from this pick.

3. Detroit Lions – Jeff Okudah, CB, Ohio State
The Lions are hoping a team trades up to No. 2 for a quarterback so Chase Young falls in their laps, but if that doesn’t happen (and they don’t receive a trade offer to move back), they will be just fine with his Ohio State teammate. With Darius Slay now in Philadelphia, Okudah will grow into the CB1 role in Detroit.

4. New York Giants – Tristan Wirfs, OT, Iowa
The Giants’ decision could come down to their highest-ranked tackle or a defensive playmaker like Isaiah Simmons. One of the reasons I think they will lean toward tackle is the impact that will make on other recent first-round picks like Saquon Barkley and Daniel Jones.

5. Miami Dolphins – Justin Herbert, QB, Oregon
We are all guessing when it comes to the Dolphins and which player they will draft here. Many around the league feel strongly that this will be a quarterback, but there is no consensus on which one. Since the Combine, I have leaned towards Herbert.

6. Los Angeles Chargers – Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Alabama
We aren’t talking enough about Tagovailoa and the potential of him dropping farther than this due to the durability and medical concerns. Each team has its own appetite for risk and we don’t know how the Chargers feel, but it might be worth the risk for that organization.

7. Carolina Panthers – Isaiah Simmons, LB, Clemson
As Matt Rhule builds the roster his way, he is looking for dynamic athletes with football character and Simmons falls in that category. And especially with the retirement of Luke Kuechly, Simmons brings another impact player who can fill multiple roles.

8. Arizona Cardinals – Derrick Brown, DT, Auburn
There is a good chance this pick comes down to the trenches, either offensive or defensive line. And while I think upgrading the right tackle spot should be the priority, the Cardinals have been searching for that hog molly on the defensive line who can help reset the line of scrimmage.

9. Jacksonville Jaguars – CJ Henderson, CB, Florida
The Jaguars cornerback depth chart is a group of replacement-level players and Henderson is worthy of top-10 consideration so this pick is about talent and need. Henderson with his 4.3 speed and 6-1 size won’t be available when Jacksonville drafts again at No. 20

10. Cleveland Browns – Mekhi Becton, OT, Louisville
The Browns made a sizable upgrade at right tackle with the signing of Jack Conklin, but left tackle remains a large question mark. You could make an argument for any of these top tackles here or even a trade down for a player like Ezra Cleveland, but I think Becton fits what they want on offense.

11. New York Jets – Jedrick Wills, OT, Alabama
The Jets have a solid interior line, but the tackles are still an area that needs to be addressed. The biggest concern with Wills is he has been a right tackle only his entire life so a move to left tackle would be a projection, but he has all the talent to make the move and thrive.

12. Las Vegas Raiders – CeeDee Lamb, WR, Oklahoma
If Henderson is still available, I could easily see the Raiders going CB and then WR with their two first-round picks. But with him off the board, they get their choice of the top receiver and Lamb seems to be a great fit with his ball skills, football IQ and YAC skills.

13. San Francisco 49ers (from IND) – Henry Ruggs, WR, Alabama
The 49ers will be hunting for another offensive playmaker in this draft and Ruggs could be that guy. He is a ridiculous athlete who could be a lot of fun in Kyle Shanahan’s offense, forcing defenses to account for him, Deebo Samuel and George Kittle.

14. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Andrew Thomas, OT, Georgia
The Buccaneers know they have a window to win right now and the best way to do that is help protect Tom Brady. Right tackle is currently a question spot, but Thomas would give them immediate depth with the potential to be a high-end starter.

15. Denver Broncos – Jerry Jeudy, WR, Alabama
The Broncos are looking for another playmaker opposite Courtland Sutton and I hear they really like CeeDee Lamb and Denzel Mims. But they also really like Jerry Jeudy with his brake-and-balance skills to uncover at will mid-route.

16. Atlanta Falcons – K’Lavon Chaisson, Edge, LSU
The Falcons were busy in free agency as they looked to upgrade at edge rusher, but they are far from set at the position. Chaisson is similar to Vic Beasley in some ways, but he has the potential for more diversity as an NFL player, both rushing the passer and dropping in space.

17. Dallas Cowboys – Trevon Diggs, CB, Alabama
The Falcons break the Cowboys heart because Chaisson is who Dallas wants. And with their top two options (Chaisson, Henderson) off the board, I think the Cowboys’ focus might shift to the Alabama secondary where Diggs or Xavier McKinney make sense.

18. Miami Dolphins (from PIT) – Austin Jackson, OT, USC
Regardless of which quarterback the Dolphins draft, Miami needs to add reinforcements at tackle to help protect him. Jackson will make youthful mistakes as a rookie, but he might also outplay his draft spot if he lives up to his immense potential.

19. Las Vegas Raiders (from CHI) – A.J. Terrell, CB, Clemson
The Raiders-Clemson pipeline is alive and well. Terrell is a big-bodied corner with speed to stay attached to routes up and down the field. His last college game wasn’t pretty vs. LSU’s Ja’Marr Chase, but his body of work as a player could land him in the top-25.

20. Jacksonville Jaguars (from LAR) – Javon Kinlaw, DT, South Carolina
Kinlaw isn’t the most clean prospect with his average production and minor medical concerns, but his talent is unquestioned. The Jaguars went to the SEC with their first two picks last year (Josh Allen and Jawaan Taylor) and they might do it again with Henderson and Kinlaw.

21. Philadelphia Eagles – Kenneth Murray, LB, Oklahoma
Under Howie Roseman, the Eagles traditionally draft the best player available at a position of relative need in the first round and Murray fits that criteria. He can be late to sort at times, but his play speed and competitive energy will quickly make him a fan favorite in Philadelphia.

22. Minnesota Vikings (from BUF) – Denzel Mims, WR, Baylor
With the first-rounder they received from Buffalo in the Stefon Diggs trade, the Vikings might turn around and add his replacement at receiver. No player has helped himself more since the end of the season than Mims, who several teams grade as a top-25 caliber prospect in this draft.

23. New England Patriots – Marlon Davidson, DL, Auburn
Some NFL scouts see Davidson as a “Jumbo” end while others see a penetrating three-technique. I’m guessing Bill Belichick sees a natural disruptor who offers inside-outside versatility in his front. His balance and hand use allow him to shake free from blockers.

24. New Orleans Saints – Patrick Queen, LB, LSU
Queen was one of the top prep athletes in Louisiana and was a critical piece of LSU’s national championship team this past season. Being drafted to his home state Saints would be a great next chapter in his story, giving New Orleans an explosive and rangy defender.

25. Minnesota Vikings – Ezra Cleveland, OT, Boise State
The Vikings drafted one of this year’s top risers with their initial first-rounder and they take another riser here. Cleveland played the entire 2019 season with a turf toe issue and still produced quality tape. That combined with his testing and football character and he has a great shot of landing in Round One.

26. Miami Dolphins (from HOU) – J.K. Dobbins, RB, Ohio State
It is tough to find landing spots for running backs in this year’s first round, but the Dolphins could be one of the destinations. Brian Flores is looking for a tone-setting back who can help create an offensive identity and Dobbins fits that mold.

27. Seattle Seahawks – Josh Uche, Edge, Michigan
The Seahawks are always a wild card on draft day so I wouldn’t be surprised to see a stunner here like Wisconsin’s Jonathan Taylor. But I’m going with Uche, who gives Seattle an explosive edge threat and a player just scratching the surface of his ability.

28. Baltimore Ravens – Zack Baun, LB, Wisconsin
Although he was almost exclusively a rusher at Wisconsin, Baun showed flashes of being able to do everything for the Badgers. He can be an off-ball linebacker for the Ravens while also giving them blitzing options on subpackages.

29. Tennessee Titans – Yetur Gross-Matos, Edge, Penn State
The Titans added Vic Beasley and Harold Landry is a promising player, but more edge rushing depth is needed in Tennessee. Gross-Matos has the versatile talent where he can stand up, put his hand on the ground or even reduce inside as a three-technique in some packages – the type of versatility that will appeal to Mike Vrabel.

30. Green Bay Packers – Justin Jefferson, WR, LSU
The Packers traditionally are a team that waits until Day 2 to draft receivers (Javon Walker in 2002 is the only receiver Green Bay has drafted in the first round since 1989). But it will be tough to pass up a talent like Jefferson and the impact he would make on the Packers’ offense.

31. San Francisco 49ers – Cesar Ruiz, iOL, Michigan
With the 49ers not picking again until the fifth round, good bet they look to trade back (maybe for a team looking to trade up for Jordan Love?). But if they stay put, upgrading the interior offensive line is on the priority list and Ruiz has big upside as a center-guard.

32. Kansas City Chiefs – Jaylon Johnson, CB, Utah
After Okudah and Henderson, there are differing opinions about the order the next corners will come off the board. And Johnson is right there in the mix to be drafted in the first round.

Second Round

33. Cincinnati Bengals – Josh Jones, OT, Houston
34. Indianapolis Colts (from WAS) – Jordan Love, QB, Utah State
There is a good chance a team trades into the first round to draft Love, but that could be the Colts or he could fall to them in the second round, giving the organization a quarterback succession plan for the future.

35. Detroit Lions – Jonathan Taylor, RB, Wisconsin
36. New York Giants – A.J. Epenesa, Edge, Iowa
37. Los Angeles Chargers – Brandon Aiyuk, WR, Arizona State
38. Carolina Panthers – Kristian Fulton, CB, LSU
39. Miami Dolphins – Xavier McKinney, DS, Alabama
40. Houston Texans (from ARI) – Ross Blacklock, DT, TCU
41. Cleveland Browns – Jeremy Chinn, DS, Southern Illinois
42. Jacksonville Jaguars – Grant Delpit, DS, LSU
43. Chicago Bears (from LVR) – Lloyd Cushenberry, iOL, LSU
44. Indianapolis Colts – Michael Pittman, WR, USC
Of all the picks in this mock draft, this might be my favorite fit. The Colts are looking for players with high football character and Pittman also fits the mold of the power forward receiver who can outrebound the football downfield.

45. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – D’Andre Swift, RB, Georgia
46. Denver Broncos – Noah Igbinoghene, CB, Auburn
47. Atlanta Falcons – Jordan Elliott, DT, Missouri
48. New York Jets – Laviska Shenault, WR, Colorado
49. Pittsburgh Steelers – Clyde Edwards-Helaire, RB, LSU
50. Chicago Bears – Curtis Weaver, Edge, Boise State
51. Dallas Cowboys – Terrell Lewis, Edge, Alabama
52. Los Angeles Rams – Tee Higgins, WR, Clemson
The Rams unloaded Brandin Cooks, but with Cooper Kupp best in the slot, they might be looking for an outside receiver who can be a matchup type downfield. Higgins has the catch radius and reflexes to be a specialized weapon in the NFL.

53. Philadelphia Eagles – Jalen Reagor, WR, TCU
54. Buffalo Bills – Jeff Gladney, CB, TCU
55. Baltimore Ravens (from ATL) – KJ Hamler, WR, Penn State
56. Miami Dolphins (from NO) – Jonathan Greenard, Edge, Florida
57. Los Angeles Rams – Isaiah Wilson, OT, Georgia
Wilson is a tough player to get a read on – some teams think he will be a first-round pick while others think he falls outside the top 50. He falls a little in this scenario, but that works out for the Rams, who find their eventual replacement for Andrew Whitworth.

58. Minnesota Vikings – Antoine Winfield Jr., DS, Minnesota
59. Seattle Seahawks – Kyle Dugger, DS, Lenoir-Rhyne
60. Baltimore Ravens – Robert Hunt, iOL, Louisiana
61. Tennessee Titans – Damon Arnette, CB, Ohio State
62. Green Bay Packers – Ben Bartch, OT, St. John’s (Minn.)
63. Kansas City Chiefs (from SF) – Chase Claypool, WR/TE, Notre Dame
The Chiefs have plenty of bodies at the receiver position, but Claypool gives them a different type of pass catcher who can play inside or outside and provide immediate depth at the receiver and tight end positions.

64. Seattle Seahawks (from KC) – Matt Peart, OT, Connecticut

Third Round

65. Cincinnati Bengals – Akeem Davis-Gaither, LB, Appalachian State
66. Washington Redskins – Cole Kmet, TE, Notre Dame
67. Detroit Lions – Justin Madubuike, DT, Texas A&M
68. New York Jets (from NYG) – Cameron Dantzler, CB, Mississippi State
69. Carolina Panthers – James Lynch, DT, Baylor
The relationship between Matt Rhule and Lynch is tough to ignore when doing a mock draft. It wouldn’t be a surprise if Rhule makes a few moves to ensure he drafts Lynch, someone he describes as “one of the most selfless, diehard players I’ve ever been around.”

70. Miami Dolphins – Matt Hennessy, OC, Temple
71. Los Angeles Chargers – Ashtyn Davis, DS, California
72. Arizona Cardinals – Cam Akers, RB, Florida State
73. Jacksonville Jaguars – Darrynton Evans, RB, Appalachian State
74. Cleveland Browns – Jordyn Brooks, LB, Texas Tech
75. Indianapolis Colts – Adam Trautman, TE, Dayton
76. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Jacob Eason, QB, Washington
I don’t know if Eason will fall this far, but it would be a great fit for both sides. Eason needs a vertical offense where he can sit and develop. And being part of the same quarterback room as Tom Brady won’t hurt his chances of becoming a starter one day.

77. Denver Broncos – Willie Gay, LB, Mississippi State
78. Atlanta Falcons – Jake Fromm, QB, Georgia
79. New York Jets – Julian Okwara, Edge, Notre Dame
80. Las Vegas Raiders – Jalen Hurts, QB, Oklahoma
81. Las Vegas Raiders (from CHI) – John Simpson, OG, Clemson
82. Dallas Cowboys – Logan Wilson, LB, Wyoming
Linebacker is a sneaky important need for the Cowboys and Wilson is one of my favorite players in the draft. He was a high school cornerback who moved to linebacker and logged over 400 tackles as a four-year starter and three-year captain.

83. Denver Broncos (from PIT) – Davon Hamilton, DT, Ohio State
84. Los Angeles Rams – Amik Robertson, CB, Louisiana Tech
85. Detroit Lions (from PHI) – Prince Tega Wanogho, OT, Auburn
86. Buffalo Bills – Darrell Taylor, Edge, Tennessee
87. New England Patriots – Harrison Bryant, TE, Florida Atlantic
88. New Orleans Saints – Van Jefferson, WR, Florida
89. Minnesota Vikings – Neville Gallimore, DT, Oklahoma
90. Houston Texans – Bradlee Anae, Edge, Utah
91. Las Vegas Raiders (from HOU) – Terrell Burgess, DS, Utah
I haven’t talked to Mike Mayock specifically about Burgess, but I would bet good money he has a high grade on Burgess. A former defensive back himself, Mayock has an understandable affinity for smart, tough safeties who can cover – this would be a great fit for both sides.

92. Baltimore Ravens – Raekwon Davis, DL, Alabama
93. Tennessee Titans – Lucas Niang, OT, TCU
94. Green Bay Packers – Albert Okwuegbunam, TE, Missouri
95. Denver Broncos (from SF) – Hakeem Adeniji, OT/G, Kansas
96. Kansas City Chiefs – Damien Lewis, OG, LSU
97. Cleveland Browns (from HOU) – Trevis Gipson, Edge, Tulsa
98. New England Patriots – Jabari Zuniga, Edge, Florida
99. New York Giants – Bryan Edwards, WR, South Carolina
Out of sight and out of mind – unfortunately that has been the theme of Edwards’ draft process after injuries sidelined him for the Senior Bowl and combine. But teams know what type of competitor he is after his record-setting career for the Gamecocks.

100. New England Patriots – KJ Hill, WR, Ohio State
101. Seattle Seahawks – Nick Harris, OC, Washington
102. Pittsburgh Steelers – Antonio Gandy-Golden, WR, Liberty
103. Philadelphia Eagles – Reggie Robinson, CB, Tulsa
104. Los Angeles Rams – Malik Harrison, LB, Ohio State
105. Minnesota Vikings – Bryce Hall, CB, Virginia
106. Baltimore Ravens – Zack Moss, RB, Utah

Fourth Round

107. Cincinnati Bengals – Ben Bredeson, OG, Michigan
108. Washington Redskins – Josiah Scott, CB, Michigan State
109. Detroit Lions – Jonah Jackson, OG, Ohio State
110. New York Giants – Kenny Robinson, FS, XFL
Robinson is expected to be drafted in the mid-rounds, which would make him the first XFL player selected in the NFL Draft.

111. Houston Texans (from MIA) – Gabriel Davis, WR, UCF
112. Los Angeles Chargers – Alex Highsmith, Edge, Charlotte
113. Carolina Panthers – Tyler Biadasz, OC, Wisconsin
114. Arizona Cardinals – Hunter Bryant, TE, Washington
115. Cleveland Browns – Donovan Peoples-Jones, WR, Michigan
116. Jacksonville Jaguars – D.J. Wonnum, Edge, South Carolina
117. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Devin Duvernay, WR, Texas
118. Denver Broncos – K’Von Wallace, DS, Clemson
119. Atlanta Falcons – Antonio Gibson, RB, Memphis
While he lined up primarily at receiver in college, Gibson projects best in the backfield where he can be a playmaker with the ball in his hands. He scored a touchdown every 5.5 times he touched the ball on offense in 2019 for Memphis.

120. New York Jets – Shane Lemieux, OG, Oregon
121. Las Vegas Raiders – Leki Fotu, DT, Utah
122. Indianapolis Colts – Brandon Jones, DS, Texas
123. Dallas Cowboys – Devin Asiasi, TE, UCLA
124. Pittsburgh Steelers – Troy Dye, LB, Oregon
125. New England Patriots (from CHI) – Davion Taylor, LB, Colorado
126. Los Angeles Rams – Jonathan Garvin, Edge, Miami (Fla.)
127. Philadelphia Eagles – AJ Dillon, RB, Boston College
The Eagles are expected to target a “big” back at some point in this year’s draft and at 247 pounds, Dillon certainly fits the bill. He needed only three seasons to become Boston College’s all-time leading rusher.

128. Buffalo Bills – Joshua Kelley, RB, UCLA
129. Baltimore Ravens (from NE) – Alton Robinson, Edge, Syracuse
130. New Orleans Saints – Troy Pride Jr., CB, Notre Dame
131. Arizona Cardinals (from HOU) – Michael Ojemudia, CB, Iowa
132. Minnesota Vikings – Khalid Kareem, Edge, Notre Dame
133. Seattle Seahawks – Lynn Bowden, WR, Kentucky
134. Baltimore Ravens – Markus Bailey, LB, Purdue
135. Pittsburgh Steelers (from MIA) – Logan Stenberg, OG, Kentucky
136. Green Bay Packers – Justin Strnad, LB, Wake Forest
137. Jacksonville Jaguars (from DEN) – Collin Johnson, WR, Texas
138. Kansas City Chiefs – Eno Benjamin, RB, Arizona State
139. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – McTelvin Agim, DT, Arkansas
140. Jacksonville Jaguars (from CHI) – Kevin Dotson, OG, Louisiana
The highest-drafted non-combine draft pick in this scenario, Dotson put together an All-American senior season and put himself in the mid-round discussion. He controls the line of scrimmage like a pissed off club bouncer.

141. Miami Dolphins – Julian Blackmon, DS, Utah
142. Washington Redskins – Francis Bernard, LB, Utah
143. Atlanta Falcons (from BAL) – Darnay Holmes, CB, UCLA
144. Seattle Seahawks – Dane Jackson, CB, Pittsburgh
145. Philadelphia Eagles – Geno Stone, DS, Iowa
146. Philadelphia Eagles – James Proche, WR, SMU

Fifth Round

147. Cincinnati Bengals – Brycen Hopkins, TE, Purdue
148. Carolina Panthers – Tyre Phillips, OT, Mississippi State
149. Detroit Lions – Tyler Johnson, WR, Minnesota
150. New York Giants – Keith Ismael, OC, San Diego State
151. Los Angeles Chargers – Joe Bachie, LB, Michigan State
152. Carolina Panthers – Kenny Willekes, Edge, Michigan State
A former walk-on, Willekes lacks ideal length and athleticism for the position, but he competes with a touch of insanity. His impeccable character and work ethic will be appealing to Matt Rhule and the culture he is establishing in Carolina.

153. Miami Dolphins (from ARI) – Stanford Samuels, CB, Florida State
154. Miami Dolphins (from PIT) – Rashard Lawrence, DL, LSU
155. Minnesota Vikings (from BUF) – Cameron Clark, OT/G, Charlotte
156. San Francisco 49ers (from DEN) – L’Jarius Sneed, CB, Louisiana Tech
157. Jacksonville Jaguars (from ATL) – Charlie Heck, OT, North Carolina
158. New York Jets – Colby Parkinson, TE, Stanford
159. Las Vegas Raiders – Tanner Muse, LB, Clemson
Another Raiders-Clemson connection, Muse might struggle to see consistent snaps on defense, but with his speed and toughness, he should play for a long time as a special teams ace.

160. Indianapolis Colts – Jason Strowbridge, DL, North Carolina
161. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Josh Metellus, DS, Michigan
162. Washington Redskins (from SEA) – Saahdiq Charles, OT, LSU
163. Chicago Bears – J.R. Reed, DS, Georgia
164. Dallas Cowboys – Jack Driscoll, OT, Auburn
165. Jacksonville Jaguars (from LAR) – Javaris Davis, CB, Auburn
166. Detroit Lions (from PHI) – Anthony Gordon, QB, Washington State
167. Buffalo Bills – Jacob Phillips, LB, LSU
168. Philadelphia Eagles (from NE) – Derrek Tuszka, Edge, North Dakota State
169. New Orleans Saints – Larrell Murchison, DT, NC State
170. Baltimore Ravens (from MIN) – Thaddeus Moss, TE, LSU
171. Houston Texans – Danny Pinter, OG, Ball State
172. New England Patriots (from DET) – Anfernee Jennings, Edge, Alabama
173. Miami Dolphins (from LAR) – Netane Muti, OG, Fresno State
If not for the durability concerns, Muti has the skill set that warrants top-50 overall consideration. With the most selections in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Dolphins can afford to take a chance on a player with his lengthy medical history but impressive talent.

174. Tennessee Titans – Anthony McFarland, RB, Maryland
175. Green Bay Packers – A.J. Green, CB, Oklahoma State
176. San Francisco 49ers – Alex Taylor, OT, South Carolina State
177. Kansas City Chiefs – Benito Jones, DT, Ole Miss
178. Denver Broncos – Isaiah Hodgins, WR, Oregon State
179. Dallas Cowboys – Jordan Fuller, DS, Ohio State

Sixth Round

180. Cincinnati Bengals – Harrison Hand, CB, Temple
181. Denver Broncos (from WAS) – Carter Coughlin, EDGE, Minnesota
182. Detroit Lions – Braden Mann, PT, Texas A&M
183. New York Giants – Evan Weaver, LB, California
184. Carolina Panthers – Isaiah Coulter, WR, Rhode Island
185. Miami Dolphins – John Hightower, WR, Boise State
186. Los Angeles Chargers – Trey Adams, OT, Washington
187. Cleveland Browns (from ARI) – John Reid, CB, Penn State
Reid doesn’t pass the eye test at only 5-10 and 187 pounds, but he was productive (37 passes defended, seven interceptions) and tested well, posting the best short shuttle (3.97) at this year’s combine. Those numbers will be more impressive to the Browns than the size measurements.

188. Buffalo Bills (from CLE) – Jon Runyan, OT/G, Michigan
189. Jacksonville Jaguars – Clay Johnston, LB, Baylor
190. Philadelphia Eagles (from ATL) – Kamal Martin, LB, Minnesota
191. New York Jets – James Morgan, QB, FlU
192. Green Bay Packers (from LVR) – Lamical Perine, RB, Florida
193. Indianapolis Colts – DeeJay Dallas, RB, Miami (Fla.)
194. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Darryl Williams, OG/C, Mississippi State
195. New England Patriots (from DEN) – Tyler Bass, PK, Georgia Southern
After cutting Stephen Gostkowski, the Patriots need to address the kicker position this offseason. Several teams believe Bass will be the first kicker drafted in April.

196. Chicago Bears – Ke’Shawn Vaughn, RB, Vanderbilt
197. Indianapolis Colts (from MIA) – Brian Cole, DB, Mississippi State
198. Pittsburgh Steelers – Broderick Washington, DT, Texas Tech
199. Los Angeles Rams – Solomon Kindley, OG, Georgia
200. Chicago Bears (from PHI) – Quez Watkins, WR, Southern Miss
201. Minnesota Vikings (from BUF) – Shaquille Quarterman, LB, Miami (Fla.)
202. Arizona Cardinals (from NE) – James Smith-Williams, Edge, NC State
203. New Orleans Saints – Raymond Calais, RB, Louisiana
204. New England Patriots (from HOU) – Jake Luton, QB, Oregon State
205. Minnesota Vikings – Michael Onwenu, OG, Michigan
206. Jacksonville Jaguars (from SEA) – Josiah Deguara, TE/HB, Cincinnati
The Jaguars signed Tyler Eifert this offseason and won’t be giving up on Josh Oliver just yet, but Jacksonville can use more depth at the position. Aside from his offensive contributions, Deguara will be a standout on special teams.

207. Buffalo Bills (from NE) – Antoine Brooks, DS, Maryland
208. Green Bay Packers (from TEN) – Robert Windsor, DL, Penn State
209. Green Bay Packers – Daniel Thomas, DS, Auburn
210. San Francisco 49ers – Alohi Gilman, DS, Notre Dame
211. New York Jets (from KC) – Michael Warren, RB, Cincinnati
212. New England Patriots – Tremayne Anchrum, OG, Clemson
213. New England Patriots – Kindle Vildor, CB, Georgia Southern
214. Seattle Seahawks – James Robinson, RB, Illinois State
Robinson is a very Seahawks-style runner with his explosive testing numbers (40-inch vertical) and workhorse style ability in college (5,218 all-purpose yards).

Seventh Round

215. Cincinnati Bengals – Azur Kamara, Edge, Kansas
The Bengals have not been shy about their interest in Kamara, scheduling multiple meetings and attending his pro day. A native of Ivory Coast, Kamara is still very raw, but he is a 4.5 athlete with plenty of potential.

216. Washington Redskins – David Woodward, LB, Utah State
217. San Francisco 49ers (from DET) – Malcolm Roach, DL, Texas
218. New York Giants – Rodrigo Blankenship, PK, Georgia
219. Minnesota Vikings (from MIA) – Jauan Jennings, WR, Tennessee
220. Los Angeles Chargers – Dalton Keene, TE, Virginia Tech
221. Carolina Panthers – JaMycal Hasty, RB, Baylor
222. Arizona Cardinals – Cam Brown, LB, Penn State
223. Jacksonville Jaguars – Raequan Williams, DT, Michigan State
224. Tennessee Titans (from CLE) – Khalil Davis, DT, Nebraska
225. Baltimore Ravens (from NYJ) – Cohl Cabral, OC, Arizona State
226. Chicago Bears (from LVR) – Parnell Motley, CB, Oklahoma
227. Miami Dolphins (from IND) – Jonah Williams, DL, Weber State
228. Atlanta Falcons (from PHI) – Quintez Cephus, WR, Wisconsin
Cephus disappointed at the combine with a 4.73 40-yard dash, but he improved that number at his pro day (4.62) and his basketball background shows at the catch point. Growing up an hour outside of Atlanta, he has the talent to stick on the roster and outplay this draft spot.

229. Washington Redskins (from DEN) – Cole McDonald, QB, Hawaii
230. New England Patriots (from ATL) – Joe Reed, WR, Virginia
231. Dallas Cowboys – Cordel Iwuagwu, OG, TCU
232. Pittsburgh Steelers – Trevon Hill, Edge, Miami (Fla.)
233. Chicago Bears – Colton McKivitz, OT, West Virginia
234. Los Angeles Rams – Trishton Jackson, WR, Syracuse
235. Detroit Lions (from NE) – Cale Garrett, LB, Missouri
236. Green Bay Packers (from CLE) – Quartney Davis, WR, Texas A&M
237. Tennessee Titans (from DEN) – Kalija Lipscomb, WR, Vanderbilt
238. New York Giants (from NO) – Jared Pinkney, TE, Vanderbilt
239. Buffalo Bills (from MIN) – Michael Turk, PT, Arizona State
240. Houston Texans – Lamar Jackson, CB, Nebraska
241. New England Patriots (from SEA) – Terence Steele, OT, Texas Tech
242. Green Bay Packers (from BAL) – Calvin Throckmorton, OG/C, Oregon
Few collegiate resumes are as impressive as Throckmorton’s. A four-year starter, he started 52 straight games for the Ducks at four positions (everywhere on the line except left guard), allowing only one sack over his final 45 starts in college.

243. Tennessee Titans – Kyle Hinton, OC, Washburn
244. Cleveland Browns (from GB) – Cheyenne O’Grady, TE, Arkansas
245. San Francisco 49ers – Sean McKeon, TE, Michigan
246. Miami Dolphins (from KC) – Blake Ferguson, LS, LSU
247. New York Giants – Rico Dowdle, RB, South Carolina
248. Houston Texans – Sewo Olonilua, RB, TCU
249. Minnesota Vikings – DeMarkus Acy, CB, Missouri
250. Houston Texans – Josh Pearson, WR, Jacksonville State
After zero production his first three years on campus, Pearson was a dominant player the last two seasons with a combined 30 receiving touchdowns. He also backed up his resume with impressive numbers at his pro day with a 4.46 40-yard dash and 41 ½-inch vertical at 6-3 and 205 pounds.

251. Miami Dolphins – Juwan Johnson, WR, Oregon
252. Denver Broncos – Justin Herron, OT/G, Wake Forest
253. Minnesota Vikings – Kyahva Tezino, LB, San Diego State
254. Denver Broncos – Zane Lewis, CB, Air Force
255. New York Giants – Stantley Thomas-Oliver III, CB, FIU

I kinda hate this draft.  We don't have the roster depth to draft a project QB who at best will be a back up and another TE.  We are so deficient at OL and CB that I'd rather take a flyer on guys at those postions, even late in the draft.

As a poster said before me - I'd lose my sh*t if we picked Shenault while Tee Higgins was still on the board.

Hamler is tiny.  I don't mind the idea, but I'd question it in the 2nd.  He is faster, but I don't know if I'd use the term "explosive."  Shenault has 50 lbs on Hamler.  Neither of them tested much.  I find them both interesting, but we probably need more of a standard starting WR than either can be relied on for week 1. 

Sub 4.40 speed. An inch shorter than Tyrek Hill.  178 vs 185. A bit smaller but not much. Not as fast but fast enough.  Can stretch the field as evidenced by his highlights.  Defenders cannot stay with him. Will go in round 2.

If Shenault doesn't have injury issues and thats a big if, he will be a very solid player at a minimum and a stud on the high end. Hamler is very explosive but is tiny, seems more of a gadget guy on offense and then a special teamer. My other problem with Shenault is he is Enunwa, same body types and playing styles, but as we have seen it leads to injuries. But also, if Enunwa is in fact healthy you already have that player. 

Someone else mentioned him here but don't think Tee Higgins is getting enough love in the run up to draft, his catch radius is absurd and had actual on field production to match his physical traits (~25 TDs last two years). Sam (too much so at times) likes to just simply give his guys a chance and a receiver who can body DBs and go up and get the ball I think is something that would fit well. 

Perriman is the speed element, Crowder is a very good slot receiver, need a Michael Thomas type that you can just feed the ball to and get 10-12 receptions a game week in and week out.

I think Douglas wants speed all over the field.  I'm not so sure he's going to take 6'4" guys who have a hard time separating from College CB's. And there are a bunch of highly rated guys like that this year that I think the Jets will pass on.

I'm not sure I agree that he had a hard time separating in college, purely basing separation off of speed (Higgins did run a 4.43 at Clemson pro day) is also not right. There is only one Tyreek, trying to find other exceptions like him I think is a very dangerous game. He's also coached by arguably the best offensive mind in football right now and plays alongside a generational QB.

I know who he is.  The point is, can he play outside?  What are the odds that this kid can get off the line of scrimmage against NFL defenders?  I like the prospect, but if he is going in round 2, I am off him because I don't think he fits what we have.  I think he and Shenault are both kind of luxury guys that need you to manufacture touches. 

Everybody likes to wave Tyreek Hill around for every little fast guy, but this guy seems way more fragile and most of these guys are more Taylor Gabriel than Tyreek Hill.  Not that Gabriel is a bad player, but that isn't what you are looking for in the 2nd.  I don't see picking him in the 2nd, especially when he didn't run.

All of this. If Douglas really feels a major need for this roster is speed, then just take Ruggs at 11. Not saying I agree with it, but if its as big a priority as some are saying then he should be in consideration at 11.
