Jordan Katz’s “What Would I Do” 2020 NFL Mock Draft: Final (5.0)

Posted on April 15, 2020 Updated on April 21, 2020

Well ladies and gentlemen, we have hit the final few stages of #MockDraftSZN. As we wrap up 2020 and get ready for the NFL Draft to take place, I decided to add in a fourth round for your viewing pleasure. As always, trades that took place in this mock draft are denoted with an asterisk. Any previous trades that occurred beforehand have a parenthesis with the team that formerly held the selection. We have a few surprising player trades in here as well.

Once again, a big thank you to those that have kept up with my draft coverage this year. I truly appreciate every read and every like on social media. Even if you were just clicking on the links and giving a quick scroll to see what your favorite team did, that means a lot to me.

The First Round of the NFL Draft is about a week away, but the first round of my final “What Would I Do” Mock (yes we changed the name from Jordan Katz Personal mock) starts….

….right….

…now!

ROUND ONE

1) Cincinnati Bengals: Joe Burrow, QB LSU

I still don’t think the offensive line can hold up, but this pick is going to be Joe Burrow. Therefore, we’ll just move on.

2) Washington Redskins: Andrew Thomas, OT Georgia

Washington would love to trade out here, but based on my board, there is no rush for the Dolphins or Chargers to move up for a quarterback. 

Thomas is the best offensive tackle I’ve ever scouted. What catapulted him to the top spot on my big board (https://draftstock.net/2020/03/19/jordan-katz-2020-big-board-2-0-top-50/) was his athletic testing at the combine. His three cone drill and 10-yard split were phenomenal, which answered my one question about him. How well can Thomas be at the second level? His kick-slide on tape is outstanding, he has the power to bully defensive linemen, but his quickness off the snap was my one knock. He answered that. 

Washington nabs a franchise left tackle to replace Trent Williams.

3) *Miami Dolphins via Detroit Lions: Justin Herbert, QB Oregon

Herbert is ahead of Tua Tagovailoa on my board by a fair amount. Herbert has a big arm, he’s smart with where to place the football when pushing it down the field, and he has plus arm strength outside the hash marks. Touch can be a question at times, and mechanics can evade him if he rushes a throw. Having said that, there’s a lot of star potential here because of his athleticism and raw arm talent. 

Trading up to three costs significantly less than trading up to five. Hence why Miami waits, and then comes up.

4) New York Giants: Chase Young, EDGE Ohio State

Okay Giants fans, this looks like an improbable situation, and a pipe dream at best. However, instead of selling Chase Young the prospect, because we all know how good Young is, I’m going to sell y’all on how this happens in real life.

What if all three of the top selections are quarterbacks? The first overall pick is guaranteed to be Joe Burrow. Let’s assume Washington successfully baits Miami into trading up for the second overall pick. Detroit is so desperate to trade out that they would take less from a team to move backwards in the draft. A team like New England that needs a quarterback desperately, could pay less than advertised to come up from down the draft board. Even a team like New Orleans could move up. They could attempt what the Chiefs pulled with Patrick Mahomes and Alex Smith a few years ago. All of this could bait the Chargers to make the move up from six. Contrary to popular belief, it’s unlikely the Chargers are series about starting Tyrod Taylor.

The scenario I just drew up is a reasonable and realistic idea. Washington will look to trade because Chase Young alone does not make them a playoff team. Plus, they need a franchise left tackle to protect their franchise quarterback. Detroit will look to trade because…. well let’s face it; Detroit will look to trade.

Just like that, the Giants have Chase Young fall into their lap.

5) *Detroit Lions via Miami Dolphins: Jeffrey Okudah, CB Ohio State

Detroit trading down is basically a lock. Now the reason people feel it’s a lock is because Chase Young goes second overall. He did not do so here.

However, even if Young is on the board at three, trading down still makes sense for the Lions. They need a number one cover corner just as much as they need an elite pass rusher. You could argue that, because of the trading of Darius Slay, and the signing last year of Trey Flowers, they need the cornerback more.

That is why Detroit passes on Young, acquires some assets, and picks Okudah.

6) *Tampa Bay Buccaneers via Los Angeles Chargers: Jedrick Wills Jr., OT Alabama

Following the surprising acquisition of Tom Brady, Tampa Bay catapults to a title contender in 2020. Having said that, they still have a few holes to fix. One of those is a starting right tackle.

Only one of the top tackles in this draft played right tackle during his final season in college; Jedrick Wills. Wills is a force up front, possessing ridiculous grip strength and raw power. He’s a perfect fit for an offensive line that Tom Brady captains.

Tampa Bay gets aggressive and trades up to find their right tackle of the present, as well as the future.

7) Carolina Panthers: Isaiah Simmons, OLB/ILB Clemson

The unicorn of the draft once again finds himself landing with the Carolina Panthers. Truth be told, this is the most realistic spot for Simmons to land in real life as well. If the Giants pass on Simmons at four, I can’t imagine him making it past the Panthers at seven.

Simmons can do it all. He can bring pressure off the edge, as well as filling lanes against the run from the interior. He can cover running backs and tight ends, but he also knows how to read the quarterback’s eyes in zone coverage. The team that can use him the best is a defensive minded team like Carolina.

8) Arizona Cardinals: Tristan Wirfs, OT Iowa

Wirfs is an unbelievable athlete for the offensive line position. In a Kliff Kingsbury offense, which is guaranteed to be up tempo, having a guy up front that can excel at the second level is a must. Having that player also be an elite pass protector is an added bonus. Wirfs and Arizona are a perfect match. 

9) *Las Vegas Raiders via Jacksonville Jaguars: CeeDee Lamb, WR Oklahoma

The Raiders have a lot of assets later on in this draft. This provides them with the ammunition to pay a little extra to slide up a few spots, should the opportunity present itself.

The Jaguars have so many needs that trading down in this draft early on feels like a must.

10) Cleveland Browns: Mekhi Becton, OT Louisville

Easy selection here. The Browns are in a perfect position to grab their starting left tackle at the 10th overall selection. The best fit for the Browns remains rushing to the virtual podium and selecting the top remaining offensive tackle on the board.

11) New York Jets: Henry Ruggs III, WR Alabama

For the large majority of the draft season, I have had Henry Ruggs as my number two wide receiver. Ruggs is a better route runner than he is given credit for, and he’s the most dynamic playmaker with the ball in his hands amidst this entire draft class. Nothing against Jerry Jeudy, he is phenomenal. I just prefer Ruggs because of his upside.

He’s also been the selection for the Jets for quite some time. More often than not, they miss on all four of the top offensive linemen. 

In short, this is more of the same.

12) *Jacksonville Jaguars via Las Vegas Raiders: Derrick Brown, IDL Auburn

Jacksonville trades backwards and still selects the player they would have picked at nine. Brown had a disappointing combine athletically, but his tape is too good to ignore. He’s quick off the snap, he’s a bull at the point of attack, and he has a relentless motor. I don’t think Brown is exclusively a one technique at the next level either. His versatility, along with his size, make him a star prospect.

13) San Francisco 49ers (from Colts): Jerry Jeudy, WR Alabama

The Niners and Colts pulled off a shocking offseason trade that sent DeForest Buckner to the Colts in exchange for the 13th overall selection. Now that the Niners select in this spot, look for one of the top receivers to come off the board here. 

Kyle Shanahan does an excellent job of making something out of nothing when it comes to offensive weapons. Having said that, his offense is at its best when there are legitimate playmakers in it. The Niners need a skilled route runner that can also take the top off of a defense to compliment Deebo Samuel. Enter, Jerry Jeudy.

14) *Los Angeles Chargers via Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Jacob Eason, QB Washington

If you have followed my draft coverage from the start of this season, you know I am all in on Jacob Eason. It’s well documented that Eason has incredible arm talent. Where my evaluation is different from others is his touch throws. While Eason does need to become more adept at delivering the touch throw, he can do it. Plus, in a clean pocket, he has the ability to make touch throws. 

The Chargers trading back and selecting their future franchise quarterback is likely a scenario that is only possible in my personal mock draft. In real life, look for the Chargers to select one of Jordan Love of Justin Herbert early on.

Editor’s Note: Love is actually a better scheme fit than Eason because the Chargers offensive line is in shambles. In my scenario, Eason will sit the first year, which is why I am comfortable having the Chargers trade back and take him later. Plus, Eason is significantly higher on my personal board. Love turns the ball over a lot, and his mechanics inside the pocket are a concern.

15) *Seattle Seahawks via Denver Broncos: K’Lavon Chaisson, EDGE LSU

K’Lavon Chaisson is head and shoulders better than every edge rusher in this draft not named Chase Young. His dip and bend ability off the edge is out of this world. Seattle desperately needs a top pass rusher, so they fly up the board to grab the former LSU star.

16) Atlanta Falcons: Javon Kinlaw, IDL South Carolina

Kinlaw is an athletic specimen. He can dip and rip past opposing offensive linemen, and his quickness makes him a matchup nightmare along the interior. Atlanta needs “dogs,” on the defensive side of the ball. Kinlaw is definitely that kind of dude.

17) Dallas Cowboys: CJ Henderson, CB Florida

The analysis here is simple. If by some miracle on draft day CJ Henderson made it to the Cowboys selection, it would be the fastest record pick in virtual draft history. Henderson is viewed by many as the best cover corner in the draft not named Jeffrey Okudah. He also has the athleticism to succeed against upper echelon receivers at the next level.

18) Miami Dolphins (from Steelers): Grant Delpit, FS/SS LSU

Somewhere along the way everyone forgot how much of a game changer Grant Delpit is when he is on. Sure, his 2019 tape is up and down, something I’ve mentioned on numerous occasions. 

Having said that, when he’s near the line of scrimmage, he’s a game wrecker. Delpit generates pressure in the box the way Jamal Adams does in New York. 

He is worthy of a first round pick; it’s that simple.

19) Las Vegas Raiders (from Bears): Patrick Queen, OLB/ILB LSU

Even with the addition of Corey Liddleton to their defense, Queen still makes the most sense for the Raiders at 19. On the weak side of a 4-3 defense, Queen can change games. He excels in coverage. Queen reads and reacts well when he’s in zone, but he also can lock down running backs out of the backfield, as well as tight ends on the line of scrimmage. Against the run, Queen plays with ruthless aggression. It sometimes causes him to miss tackles, but Head Coach Jon Gruden will love his attitude. All in all, this is a perfect fit.

20) Jacksonville Jaguars (from Rams): Kristian Fulton, CB LSU

Cover corner is a massive need for the Jaguars in this draft. While they could wait until day two because of the depth at cornerback, Jacksonville is in perfect range to select one of Fulton or Jeff Gladney at 20.

Fulton is slightly higher than Gladney on my personal board because he’s a more complete cover corner. His footwork in off coverage exceeds Gladney’s by a sizable margin.

21) Philadelphia Eagles: Justin Jefferson, WR LSU

The Eagles are an interesting team to attempt to mock. Part of me thinks Philly is a dark horse team to move up and acquire one of the big three receiving targets. 

However, because they gave up multiple assets to land Darius Slay, staying put at 21 might be the move they are forced into making. Fortunately, Justin Jefferson is a terrific talent that fits perfectly into Head Coach Doug Pederson’s offense. He can win from anywhere on the field, he makes plays with the ball in his hands, and he can win contested catches.

22) Minnesota Vikings (from Bills): Jeff Gladney, CB TCU

Much like Jacksonville above, cover corner is a must for Minnesota early in this draft. Unlike Jacksonville above, Minnesota does not have an early second round pick to fall back on. The Vikings have to select the best cornerback on the board at either the 22nd or 25th overall selection. 

Jeff Gladney’s man cover skills make him the pick here. He can mirror receivers from the boundary, as well as the slot position.

23) New England Patriots: Tua Tagovailoa, QB Alabama

Once again, I feel the need to reiterate that Tua Tagovailoa is not going to make it this low. The mock draft is what I would do if I were in charge of all 32 teams. Not only is Tua my QB4, but his injury concerns would make him drop down the draft board if I ran the show for everyone.

Nevertheless, the gamble would be worth it for a team like New England. With Tom Brady taking his talents to Tampa Bay, the Patriots are in need of a starting quarterback. Contrary to popular belief, that player is not Jarett Stidham.

Tua is actually an ideal selection for the Patriots. If he works, they have their starting quarterback for the next decade. Tua could also lead the Patriots to the playoffs right away if he’s healthy. He has a big arm, he makes plays outside the pocket, and he’s becoming smarter with the football.

If he doesn’t, there’s a kid out of Clemson that I’ve heard is pretty good…

24) New Orleans Saints: Damon Arnette, CB Ohio State

New Orleans is a tough team for me to gauge. Their only immediate need is a quarterback of the future, and I am much lower on Jordan Love than the public. They could trade out of this spot, something they might be able to do in real life. Having said that, I can’t justify any team trading up to this spot.

Arnette can be an immediate contributor in the nickel corner spot, while eventually taking over the second boundary position opposite Marshon Lattimore. Frankly, that could happen as early as this upcoming season because Janoris Jenkins is not what he once was.

25) Minnesota Vikings: Yetur Gross-Matos, EDGE Penn State

Minnesota needs to revamp what was once a vaunted front four on defense. Gross-Matos has a better move set than people realize. He can long arm tackles with his length, and he has a decent bull rush. He likes the cross-chop method of beating opposing tackles as well.

Gross-Matos struggles with countering the punch from opposing offensive tackles. He’s also not an elite athlete on the edge. 

Nevertheless, there is enough in the tool box to make Gross-Matos a quality edge player in the NFL.

26) Miami Dolphins (from Texans): Austin Jackson, OT USC

Austin Jackson is a very polarizing tackle. Truth be told, liking him as much as I do goes against everything I stand for in terms of offensive line traits. What I typically look for is smart players with good technique, and the intelligence to play in multiple schemes.

Jackson is a big time athlete with a terrific kickslide. However, he lacks the power in his grip strength. He also lacks the intelligence to handle extra rushers or counter moves from edge rushers.

Why do I like him so much, you ask? Jackson already has a feel for how to properly cut off edge rushers from successfully running the arch. Considering his youth (just 20 years old), that’s extremely impressive.

I think over time Jackson’s technique will get better, making him a quality tackle in the future.

27) *Denver Broncos via Seattle Seahawks: Cesar Ruiz, IOL Michigan

Unlike Jackson above, Ruiz is the exact kind of offensive lineman I typically like. He understands twists and stunts up front. He possesses the power to wall off interior rushers. Lastly, his athleticism is big time. He can pull into space, find his target, and finish his blocks. Denver trades back and selects a day one starter.

28) Baltimore Ravens: Kenneth Murray, ILB Oklahoma

Baltimore is a good trade down candidate should they miss on Murray or Patrick Queen in round one. Fortunately for them, Murray is here for them to select.

Many people like Murray in the top 20, but I have Queen over Murray because of Queen’s ability in coverage. Having said that, Murray is a do-it-all linebacker in his own right, and worthy of a first round selection. He’s a tackling machine, and a stud against the run. Improving his cover skills would make him an elite linebacker in the NFL.

29) Tennessee Titans: AJ Epenesa, DL Iowa

Epenesa makes sense to move inside to a 3-4 defensive end at the next level. He can play as a five technique, but he can use his quickness and move-set to his advantage. Epenesa does not have the dip and bend ability to be an edge player. Move him inside, to a team like Tennessee, and you’ll see success.

Editor’s Note: If only someone could have told the rest of the draft community that this is where Epenesa should have been all along. What mock draft analyst has seen this for multiple months now?…. Oh that’s right, ya boy did.

30) Green Bay Packers: Denzel Mims, WR Baylor

Pass catcher is atop the wish list for the Green Bay Packers this offseason. There are a bounty of them to choose from at 30, which means trading down could be in play for them. However, no one wanted to move up, so Mims is the pick.

What makes me excited about this selection is the idea of Mims playing with Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers loves back shoulder throws. He likes throwing to players that remain strong at the catch point against tough coverage. Both of these are areas that Denzel Mims excels in.

31) San Francisco 49ers: Ross Blacklock, DT TCU

Blacklock is a great candidate to replace DeForest Buckner. He has big time quickness as a pass rusher. Blacklock’s lethal first step and ability to rip past opposing interior offensive linemen make him a matchup problem for opposing offensive lines.

32) Kansas City Chiefs: Bryce Hall, CB Virginia

While I would love to give Kansas City a running back here, the bottom line is the Chiefs need defense much more. Hall is a perfect scheme fit for Defensive Coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. Hall excels in cover three, showing terrific instincts in off coverage and a great first step. He’s a willing tackler, and possesses the ability to be physical in coverage. This is a terrific fit.

TRADES IN ROUND ONE

1) Miami Dolphins trade the #5, #39, #153 and a 2021 4th Round Pick to the Detroit Lions for the #3 and a 2021 6th Round Pick.

2) Tampa Bay Buccaneers trade the #14, #45, #117 and a 2021 4th Round Pick to the Los Angeles Chargers for the #6 and a 2021 5th Round Pick.

3) Las Vegas Raiders trade the #12, #80 and #121 to the Jacksonville Jaguars for the #9 and #157.

4) Seattle Seahawks trade the #27. #59 and #101 to the Denver Broncos for the #15 and #178.

ROUND TWO

33) Cincinnati Bengals: Lloyd Cushenberry III, IOL LSU

The Bengals once again get Burrow’s starting center at LSU to play alongside him in Cincinnati. Chances are, Cushenberry would move to guard in this scenario. However, he has the athleticism and intelligence to do so.

34) Indianapolis Colts (from WAS): Laviska Shenault, WR Colorado

Playmaker is actually a major need for the Colts in this draft. Shenault is a better system fit here than others because he can create big plays with the ball in his hands. Based on where Philip Rivers is at in his career, he will need a few “YAC,” guys to help him out.

35) Detroit Lions: Xavier McKinney, FS Alabama

Detroit continues to revamp their secondary. McKinney is the single high safety with elite range that Head Coach Matt Patricia has lacked in recent years.

36) New York Giants: Lucas Niang, OT TCU

Offensive line remains a need for the Giants, particularly on the right side of the line. While Niang is not the highest remaining tackle on my board, he is the best fit. Niang mauls opponents in the run game. He has the size and build of a prototypical left tackle.

37) Los Angeles Chargers: Matthew Peart, OT UCONN

Matthew Peart has elite size and length for the position. Also, Peart is light on his feet, and shows the intelligence to pick up extra rushers. Peart can play the right side for a year before transitioning to left tackle.

38) Carolina Panthers: Antoine Winfield, CB/FS Minnesota

Carolina does have to replace James Bradberry early in this draft. However, what they need above all is playmakers in the secondary. Winfield is a playmaker. He plays nickel corner, single high safety, and a cover two spot. Winfield has the intelligence and athleticism to do all three at the next level. 

39) *Cincinnati Bengals via Miami Dolphins: Jeremy Chinn, LB/S Southern Illinois

Chinn is a lesser version of Isaiah Simmons. He can read and react from the safety position, he ranges sideline to sideline with elite athleticism, and he plays downhill with poise. While some may select him to be a starting safety at the next level, I think a 4-3 weakside linebacker also fits his skill set tremendously. Cincinnati selects him to do the latter.

40) *Los Angeles Rams via Houston Texans: JK Dobbins, RB Ohio State

The Rams rushing attack is what makes their offense go. The down year on the ground correlated with their missed playoff appearance. With running backs falling a bit, the Rams get aggressive and trade up for a feature back.

41) Cleveland Browns: Josh Uche, EDGE/OLB Michigan

If you’ve kept up with my draft analysis, you know that I would love to see Josh Uche in a LEO linebacker role at the next level. Cleveland needs pass rush help, but they also need to improve the second level of their defense. This is a perfect spot for Uche.

42) Jacksonville Jaguars: D’Andre Swift, RB Georgia

Leonard Fournette’s days in Jacksonville are numbered. This is the draft to land his replacement. It just so happens that running backs fell in this draft, so the Jaguars land a three down back like Swift.

43) Chicago Bears (from Raiders): Matt Hennessy, IOL Temple

The Bears desperately need help along the interior of their offensive line. Hennessy has the intelligence to slide to guard if asked to. He could also play his natural position of center, with the incumbent Cody Whitehair, sliding to the guard spot. Whitehair was successful at guard in the past, so the transition should be easy. 

44) Indianapolis Colts: Ashtyn Davis, SS California

Davis is a favorite among the draft community. He flies to the football, he plays aggressive downhill, and ranges sideline to sideline with big time athleticism. Davis shows enough range to be a successful safety in cover two. However, if you put him next to a single high safety like Malik Hooker, you could get the best possible Ashtyn Davis at the next level.

45) *Los Angeles Chargers via Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Clyde Edwards-Helaire, RB LSU

Even if you are a team’s primary “bell cow,” nowadays you have to be able to do something in the passing game. Edwards-Helaire can tote the rock, as well as making plays in the passing game. The Chargers will go running back at some point in this draft. Edwards-Helaire and Austin Eckler would be a dynamic tandem.

46) Denver Broncos: Van Jefferson, WR Florida

Denver needs a number two wide receiver to compliment Courtland Sutton. A route running technician like Van Jefferson would be perfect to play on the opposite side. Sutton stretches the field, while Jefferson moves the chains.

47) Atlanta Falcons: AJ Terrell, CB Clemson

Tough call here between Terrell and Jaylon Johnson. Johnson has the physicality that Head Coach Dan Quinn would like in his cornerbacks. However, I went with Terrell because of his ability in off coverage, as well as his ball skills.

48) New York Jets: Julian Okwara, EDGE Notre Dame

Assuming the Jets go receiver at 11, my guess is that they will get aggressive in their pursuit of Trent Williams. At the very least, that’s what I would do.

If they opt to do that, Okwara is a very interesting option on day two. His motor runs high, and he has big time athleticism off the edge. He’s not the most technically sound. Okwara struggles to set the edge, and has a tendency to play high. However, in a weak edge class, Okwara’s dip and bend ability make him an attractive day two option for a defense led by Gregg Williams.

49) *Tennessee Titans via Pittsburgh Steelers: Ben Bartch, OT St John’s

The Titans seem confident in their offensive line moving forward, but Dennis Kelly is more of a swing tackle in my estimation. Bartch is a smart, athletic offensive linemen that can start at right tackle from day one. The Titans use some assets to trade up and land their guy in round two.

50) *Carolina Panthers via Chicago Bears: Justin Madubuike, IDL Texas A&M

Madubuike was in consideration for the Panthers at their selection earlier in the round. He’s the best of the “second tier,” guys against the run at the interior defensive line spot. With him still on the board, Carolina uses assets and moves up to land another defensive starter.

51) Dallas Cowboys: Kyle Duggar, SS Lenoir-Rhyne

This is a little early for Duggar, but safety flew off the board in this mock. Duggar is a big time athlete. He has a terrific nose for the football close to the line of scrimmage. Duggar would make an immediate impact for the Cowboys in their run defense.

52) *Houston Texans via Los Angeles Rams: Neville Gallimore, IDL Oklahoma

Front seven has gone from the Texans strength, to one of their needs entering the 2020 NFL Draft. Gallimore’s quick first step and athleticism as a pass rusher would make him a good compliment on the opposite side of JJ Watt.

53) Philadelphia Eagles: Malik Harrison, ILB Ohio State

Philadelphia needs help at the second level of their defense. While this is high for Harrison, it’s also a major need for the Eagles. Plus, there are teams below them that would scoop Harrison, should they look to trade backwards.

Harrison is a big time athlete who is best when playing downhill against the run. He shoots the correct gaps, and rarely misses tackles.

54) *Jacksonville Jaguars via Buffalo Bills (Bills acquire Yannick Ngakoue): Jalen Reagor, WR TCU

Why not go all in if you’re the Buffalo Bills? They have the cap space, and they now have the path to a division title with the departure of Tom Brady in New England. I think multiple day two selections would land Yannick Ngakoue, because Jacksonville knows Ngakoue does not want to return.

The Jaguars then select an actual deep threat for Gardner Minshew. Reagor can stretch the field, and make big plays happen with the ball in his hands.

55) Baltimore Ravens (from teams): Ben Bredeson, IOL Michigan

Physicality and intelligence. These are the two adjectives best used to describe Ben Bredeson. He’s a perfect fit in the middle of the Ravens offensive line. Baltimore wants to run the football, but their schemes demand intelligence up front. I love this pick.

56) Miami Dolphins (from Saints): Cam Akers, RB Florida State

I really believe this could be the scenario for running backs on draft day. We could see none of them go on day one, perhaps one player at most. 

Then the flood gates open on day two and running backs come flying off the board. It’s all about positional value, and running backs do not have the value that other positions do.

Akers is my best running back available, so Miami snatches him up to be their bell cow in 2020 and beyond.

57) Los Angeles Rams (from Texans): Jaylon Johnson, CB Utah

Los Angeles played out the perfect draft here. They got aggressive for a running back, which will help bring their offense back to normal. Johnson then fell to their second selection, making him an easy pick. Johnson’s man-to-man skills along with his physicality make him a perfect compliment to Jalen Ramsey in the back-end.

58) Minnesota Vikings: Jonah Jackson, IOL Ohio State

Offensive line remains a need for the Vikings. Jackson’s intelligence upfront makes him an attractive day two selection for any team. However, it’s his nimble feet in pass protection that has me excited about this fit in particular. The Vikings struggle protecting Kirk Cousins at times. Jackson will help that.

59) *Denver Broncos via Seattle Seahawks: Noah Igbinoghene, CB Auburn

The Broncos need a number two cornerback to play opposite AJ Bouye. Igbinoghene is new to the position, but he’s picked it up very quickly. Plus, he’s physical, which Head Coach Vic Fangio demands his defenders to be.

60) Baltimore Ravens: Bradlee Anae, EDGE Utah

It’s weird when the Ravens need to draft multiple defensive pieces early. However, that is where we are. Anae feels like a perfect fit for Baltimore. He can line up in multiple spots along the defensive front, and has the ability to win pass rushing reps in multiple ways.

61) *Pittsburgh Steelers via Tennessee Titans: Isaiah Wilson, OT Georgia

I don’t love the idea of Wilson going in round two, but he’s the perfect scheme fit for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Wilson is a mauler; he has impressive length, and terrific grip strength. His footwork leaves a lot to be desired, and he has a tendency to play high. However, Pittsburgh’s late third rounder could be too late in terms of landing their ideal tackle. Hence why they choose to do so here.

62) Green Bay Packers: Marlon Davidson, DL Auburn

Much like Isaiah Wilson a few spots ago, this is high for Davidson based on my draft profile of him. Much like Isaiah Wilson a few spots ago, this is such an ideal fit, that I made the selection anyway.

Green Bay needs beef up front and has to improve against the run in 2020. Davidson is a quality run stopper along the interior.

63) Kansas City Chiefs (from 49ers): Saahdiq Charles, OT/IOL LSU

I’m very intrigued by a team kicking Charles inside at the next level. He has big time athleticism and really good footwork, but his grip strength is less than stellar and his punches do not always land. An athletic front could move him inside and turn him into a terrific guard. Charles could even transition back to tackle later in his career because he’s intelligent enough to do so.

64) Seattle Seahawks (from KC): Ezra Cleveland, OT Boise State

The Seahawks love athletic offensive linemen, but their drafted selections have struggled in recent memory. Part of the reason is because they look for players with premium athletic traits and not necessarily the athletes with elite footwork. 

Cleveland may have issues at times with his pad level, but he has elite footwork. This is an athlete that could work very well in Seattle.

TRADES IN ROUND TWO

1) Los Angeles Rams trade the #52, #84 and #126 to the Houston Texans for the #40 and #111.

2) Tennessee Titans trade the #61 and #93 to the Pittsburgh Steelers for the #49 and #199.

3) Carolina Panthers trade #69, #113 and a 2021 3rd Round Pick to the Chicago Bears for the #50 and a 2021 6th Round Pick.

4) Buffalo Bills trade the #54 and a 2021 Conditional 3rd Round Pick to the Jacksonville Jaguars for EDGE Rusher Yannick Ngakoue.

ROUND THREE

65) Cincinnati Bengals: Michael Pittman Jr., WR USC

66) Washington Redskins: Zack Baun, EDGE/OLB Wisconsin 

67) Detroit Lions: Jabari Zuniga, EDGE Florida

68) New York Jets (from Giants): Michael Ojemudia, CB Iowa

69) *Chicago Bears via Carolina Panthers: Troy Pride Jr., CB Notre Dame

70) Miami Dolphins: Bryan Edwards, WR South Carolina

71) Los Angeles Chargers: KJ Hamler, WR Penn State

72) *New Orleans Saints via Arizona Cardinals: Jordan Love, QB Utah State

73) Jacksonville Jaguars: Prince Tega Wanogho, OT Auburn

74) Cleveland Browns: Robert Hunt, IOL Louisiana

75) Indianapolis Colts: Alton Robinson, EDGE Syracuse

76) Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Alohi Gilman, SS Notre Dame

77) Denver Broncos: Troy Dye, ILB Oregon

78) Atlanta Falcons: Eno Benjamin, RB Arizona State

79) *Washington Redskins via New York Jets (Jets Acquire Trent Williams): Tee Higgins, WR Clemson

80) *Jacksonville Jaguars via Las Vegas Raiders: Darnay Holmes, CB UCLA

81) Las Vegas Raiders (from Bears): Davon Hamilton, IDL Ohio State

82) Dallas Cowboys: Cole Kmet, TE Notre Dame

83) Denver Broncos via Pittsburgh Steelers: Terrell Burgess, SS Utah

84) *Houston Texans via Los Angeles Rams: Jonathan Greenard, EDGE Florida

85) Detroit Lions via Philadelphia Eagles: Donovan Peoples-Jones, WR Michigan

86) Buffalo Bills: Alex Highsmith, EDGE Charlotte

87) New England Patriots: Adam Trautman, TE Dayton
