2020 NFL Mock Draft 16.0: Justin Herbert Before Tua Tagovailoa in Our First Seven-Round Mock
Not only is wide receiver the deepest position group in this year’s NFL draft class, it’s one of the best years ever for teams looking to improve their wide receiving corps.
Over the past decade, there have been an average of 31.3 receivers drafted per year, with a high of 34 (2014, ’15 and ’18). Based on my seven-round mock draft, 38 wide receivers will get drafted in 2020 including Mr. Irrelevant, the final pick of the draft.
Given the depth at receiver, it’s possible that teams wait before addressing their pass-catching need and target other, less deep, positions earlier in the draft. While no other position has more total players drafted, my seven-round mock draft has more cornerbacks (six) and offensive tackles (six) than wide receivers (five) selected on opening night.
ROUND 1
1. Cincinnati Bengals: Joe Burrow, QB, LSU
Given the unusual circumstances, this year’s draft may be less predictable than usual, but the Burrow-to-Cincinnati selection is as close as it gets to a sure thing. The 23-year-old Heisman-winning quarterback throws with pinpoint accuracy, maneuvers well within the pocket and uses his mobility to extend or make plays. Despite facing seven top-10 opponents en route to an unbeaten season, Burrow was remarkably consistent from start to finish yet he played his best during the biggest moments.
2. Washington: Chase Young, EDGE, Ohio State
My top-ranked prospect in this year’s draft, Young matches elite physical traits with elite production. Closing out his true sophomore season with six sacks over his final four games, Young built upon his 2018 end-of-season momentum to set an Ohio State single-season record with an FBS-high 16.5 sacks in 2019.
3. Detroit Lions: Jeffrey Okudah, CB, Ohio State
Signing Desmond Trufant to a two-year deal made it easier for the Lions to trade Darius Slay, but ultimately those two moves are a net downgrade for the secondary. Before those moves, the team was in need of an upgrade opposite its top cornerback. A complete corner, Okudah possesses an ideal blend of size, length, athleticism and competitiveness to develop into a shutdown corner for the Lions early in his career.
4. New York Giants: Isaiah Simmons, LB, Clemson
If Dave Gettleman doesn't use this pick on his choice of a "hog molly," the Giants could use an impact player (like Simmons) on defense. The converted safety won the Butkus Award, given to the nation's top collegiate linebacker, but Simmons is a defensive chess piece that has lined up nearly everywhere.
Testing off the charts at the combine (4.39 in the 40 at 238 pounds), the do-it-all defender has sideline-to-sideline range and disruptive playmaking ability.
5. Miami Dolphins: Justin Herbert, QB, Oregon
Once again, it’s Herbert to the Dolphins. As much as Tua Tagovailoa appears to have “won his medicals,” most signs point to the Dolphins leaning Herbert. Earlier this offseason, team owner Stephen Ross voiced his concerns about Tua’s health. While Herbert needs to become more consistent, he has across-the-board plus traits—size, arm strength, mobility and intelligence. Meanwhile, the Senior Bowl’s Jim Nagy called concerns about Herbert’s quiet leadership style a “false narrative” and said he has “far more charisma than many NFL starters we’ve been around.”
6. Los Angeles Chargers: Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Alabama
As the Chargers move into the post-Philip Rivers era, Tyrod Taylor and Easton Stick are the only quarterbacks currently under contract for 2020. Coach Anthony Lynn recently said that Taylor is “in the driver’s seat” to start as the team is more likely to add to the quarterback room through the draft than free agency. As well as his rehab has reportedly gone, Tagovailoa can take over in 2021 with Taylor as the bridge quarterback in 2020. When healthy, Tua throws with a quick release, elite accuracy and anticipation, and has the intangibles and leadership to develop into a franchise quarterback.
7. Carolina Panthers: Derrick Brown, IDL, Auburn
Not only did the Panthers allow a league-worst 5.2 yards per carry and 31 rushing scores last season, but they lost several defensive linemen in free agency this offseason as well. Due to his size, strength and consistent motor, Brown is a dominant run-stuffer with the versatility to play multiple spots along the line.
8. Arizona Cardinals: Jedrick Wills, OT, Alabama
The Cardinals re-signed left tackle D.J. Humphries to a three-year deal earlier this offseason. While the team has also re-signed right tackle Marcus Gilbert, the 32-year-old missed all of 2019 (ACL) and both he and Justin Murray will be free agents after the 2020 season. A two-year starter at right tackle for the Tide, Wills is dominant as a run blocker with outstanding movement skills that should allow him to play either tackle spot.
9. Jacksonville Jaguars: Javon Kinlaw, IDL, South Carolina
There has been some turnover on the Jags defensive line as they have declined Marcell Dareus’s option and traded Calais Campbell this offseason. In addition, Yannick Ngakoue could be (hopes to be) moved as we approach the draft. Due to his blend of size, length, strength and quickness, Kinlaw has as much pass-rush upside as any interior defender in this year’s draft.
10. Cleveland Browns: Tristan Wirfs, OT, Iowa
The Browns signed right tackle Jack Conklin to a three-year deal in free agency, but there is still a huge need at left tackle. The first true freshman to start at tackle during the Kirk Ferentz era at Iowa, Wirfs has freakish athleticism for his size and he has the versatility to play either tackle spot or kick inside, if necessary.
11. New York Jets: Mekhi Becton, OT, Louisville
The Jets ranked near the bottom of Football Outsiders offensive line rankings in both run blocking (31st) and pass blocking (30th) in 2019. While the Jets have made several additions to the offensive line via free agency, I don’t think Joe Douglas is done yet. A mountain of a man at 6' 7" and 364 pounds with vines for arms (35 5/8"), the 20-year-old Becton has work to do on technique, but he has rare movement skills for his size.
12. Las Vegas Raiders: CeeDee Lamb, WR, Oklahoma
Darren Waller had a breakout season (90/1,145/3) in 2019, but the trade for Antonio Brown turned out to be a failed experiment. Scoring 26 touchdowns in 27 games over the past two seasons, Lamb may not be a burner, but he has outstanding hands, body control and run-after-catch ability.
13. San Francisco 49ers (via IND): Jerry Jeudy, WR, Alabama
Based on the players available here, this pick likely comes down to Jeudy, his teammate Henry Ruggs or cornerback C.J. Henderson, who was slotted here in the previous iteration of my mock. Fortunately for the 49ers, the depth at both receiver and corner means there will be excellent options available at both positions with their next pick. Deebo Samuel had a productive rookie season including three 100-yard games in the second half, but Emmanuel Sanders has departed in free agency. The former (2018) Biletnikoff Award recipient is an advanced route-runner and ended his collegiate career on a high note (6/204/1 vs. Michigan).
14. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Andrew Thomas, OT, Georgia
Even if he turns out to be the fourth tackle off the board, you could argue that Thomas is the most pro-ready of the top-four tackles. With starting experience at both left and right tackle at Georgia, Thomas provides the Bucs with an immediate upgrade at right tackle and the long-term upside to slide over to the left side, if needed.
15. Denver Broncos: Henry Ruggs III, WR, Alabama
Both Drew Lock and Noah Fant showed promise in their rookie seasons and Courtland Sutton had a breakout sophomore campaign (1,112 yards). The Broncos could use an upgrade opposite Sutton, however, as no other returning wide receiver reached the 300-yard mark in 2019. Posting a combine-fastest 40-yard dash (4.27), Ruggs is an ideal field-stretching complement to Sutton.
16. Atlanta Falcons: K'Lavon Chaisson, EDGE, LSU
Even though the Falcons have signed Dante Fowler, the team finished with the second fewest sacks (28) in 2019 and last year’s team leader (Vic Beasley, eight) is now in Tennessee. While Chaisson missed nearly all of 2018 with a torn ACL, the 20-year-old has elite burst off the edge and came on late—4.5 sacks in final four games—to lead LSU in sacks, tackles for loss and QB hurries in 2019.
17. Dallas Cowboys: C.J. Henderson, CB, Florida
Not only did Byron Jones depart in free agency, but only one of the team’s top five corners—Anthony Brown—is under contract beyond 2020. Tied for the fewest interceptions (seven) in 2019, it’s been a perennial problem for the Cowboys, who are also tied for the fewest interceptions (43) over the past five seasons. Henderson is sticky in coverage due to his impressive combination of size, length, speed and fluid movement.
18. Miami Dolphins (via PIT): Josh Jones, OT, Houston
Most of Miami’s free-agent spending was focused on the defensive side of the ball. While Chris Grier has added Ereck Flowers and Ted Karras on the interior, the team still has one of the worst offensive lines in football and could use upgrades at both tackle spots. A four-year starter at Houston, Jones has the length, quick feet and movement skills coveted in a left tackle.
19. Las Vegas Raiders (via CHI): Kristian Fulton, CB, LSU
With the team’s two first-round picks, the Raiders have addressed their two biggest post-free agency needs (wide receiver and cornerback). Fulton is a patient and physical corner with decent size. While he may not have elite long speed, he checked the box with a 4.46 in the 40 at the combine and he's quick, fluid and sticky in coverage.
20. Jacksonville Jaguars (via LAR): Trevon Diggs, CB, Alabama
With both Week 1 2019 outside starting cornerbacks—Jalen Ramsey and A.J. Bouye—no longer on the roster, the Jags will likely use one (or more) of their first two or three picks on a cornerback. The younger brother of Bills receiver Stefon Diggs, (Trevon) Diggs has an elite combination of size and length and the former receiver has outstanding ball skills.
21. Philadelphia Eagles: Justin Jefferson, WR, LSU
Philadelphia’s top three receivers (entering 2019)—Alshon Jeffery, DeSean Jackson and Nelson Agholor—missed 24 games combined games last year. Agholor is now a Raider, Jeffery’s future in Philly is uncertain and second-rounder J.J. Arcega-Whiteside underwhelmed as a rookie. Jefferson has outstanding ball skills, ran a faster-than-expected 40-yard dash (4.43) and is coming off a prolific season (111/1,540/18) for the national champions.
22. Minnesota Vikings (via BUF): Austin Jackson, OT, USC
Mike Zimmer has talked about the potential of moving Riley Reiff to guard and Brian O’Neill from right to left tackle. The 20-year-old Jackson may have benefited from returning to USC for another season, but he has the quick feet and athleticism that could entice the Vikings to take a chance on his long-term upside as his technique catches up to his athleticism.
23. New England Patriots: A.J. Epenesa, EDGE, Iowa
While not a speed rusher, Epenesa could remind Bill Belichick of one of his former players, Trey Flowers. The former Hawkeye wins with a blend of power, length, technique and heavy hands, and has the versatility to rush from the inside as well. While he started 2019 slowly, Epenesa closed the season strong with eight sacks and four forced fumbles over his final five games.
24. New Orleans Saints: Patrick Queen, LB, LSU
A.J. Klein signed a three-deal with the Bills in free agency and four of the team’s top remaining linebackers—Demario Davis, Kiko Alonso, Alex Anzalone and Craig Robertson—are scheduled to become unrestricted free agents next offseason. One of the youngest prospects in the draft (he turns 21 in August), Queen played his best football down the stretch of LSU’s title run. While he’s a bit undersized, Queen is a three-down linebacker with outstanding speed that excels in coverage.
25. Minnesota Vikings: Jeff Gladney, CB, TCU
With Xavier Rhodes, Trae Waynes and Mackensie Alexander no longer in Minnesota, the Vikings could prioritize corner over wide receiver, given the wide receiver talent that could still be there with their second-round pick. Gladney plays with a more physical presence than his size would otherwise suggest. Blending foot quickness, agility and a feisty competitive toughness, Gladney has a nose for the ball that's led to 26 passes defended since 2018 and five interceptions in the past three seasons.
26. Miami Dolphins (via HOU): Xavier McKinney, S, Alabama
The Dolphins have added several new starters—Kyle Van Noy, Shaq Lawson and Byron Jones—on defense via free agency. They add another projected starter here with McKinney, a versatile defender with experience at both safety spots. The junior tied for the team lead in interceptions (three) last season at Alabama.
*Proposed trade: IND sends the 34th and 75th picks to SEA in exchange for the 27th pick.*
27. Indianapolis Colts: Jordan Love, QB, Utah State
As Peter King notes, John Schneider and the Seahawks have traded their first-round pick every year since 2012 for a total of 10 first-round trades over the past eight drafts. Meanwhile, trading back into the first round for the fifth-year option on Love would make sense for the Colts. Described by one NFL head coach as a “poor man's [Patrick] Mahomes,” Love has a live arm, plus mobility and improvisational skills. The current environment will make it more difficult than usual for rookies to start, but the high-upside signal-caller would have an adjustment year in this scenario as he sits behind Philip Rivers and Jacoby Brissett, both of whom are free agents in 2021.
28. Baltimore Ravens: Kenneth Murray, LB, Oklahoma
After losing C.J. Mosley in free agency last offseason, the Ravens lost both Josh Bynes and Patrick Onwuasor in free agency this offseason. A tackling machine for the Sooners, Murray has the non-stop motor, sideline-to-sideline range and leadership to become an impact defender in the middle of the Ravens defense.
29. Tennessee Titans: Yetur Gross-Matos, EDGE, Penn State
Harold Landry doubled his sack total from 4.5 to nine in his second season and the Titans signed Vic Beasley (eight sacks in 2019) to a one-year deal. Even so, adding another versatile edge defender like Gross-Matos would make sense. The former Nittany Lion has ideal length, a non-stop motor and quick first step, and has recorded 34.5 tackles for loss and 17 sacks over the past two seasons combined.
30. Green Bay Packers: Denzel Mims, WR, Baylor
The Packers signed Devin Funchess to a one-year deal this offseason, but Green Bay has struggled to find consistent production from its wide receiver corps outside of Davante Adams. Since the calendar flipped to 2020, few prospects have helped themselves as much as Mims. After an outstanding week at the Senior Bowl, Mims ran a sub-4.4 time in the 40 with a position-best 6.66 in the three-cone drill at the combine. Per PFF stats, the 207-pound wideout led all receivers with 20 contested catches.
31. San Francisco 49ers: A.J. Terrell, CB, Clemson
Richard Sherman turned 32 last month and three of the team’s top four cornerbacks (including Sherman) are scheduled to become unrestricted free agents next offseason. While he didn’t have a stellar performance against Ja’Marr Chase and LSU in the national championship game, Terrell is a long and athletic corner that would help address one of the team’s bigger long-term needs.
32. Kansas City Chiefs: Cesar Ruiz, IOL, Michigan
Even though there are already six corners off the board and the team has re-signed Bashaud Breeland since my last mock, Utah’s Jaylon Johnson is squarely in the (late) first-round mix. If they wait until later (Round 2 in this mock) for a corner, Ruiz makes sense here as the Chiefs could use an upgrade at center and left guard. A three-year starter at both center (26 games) and guard (five games), Ruiz sits atop my interior offensive rankings and has allowed just 19 pressures on 895 pass-blocking snaps since 2018, per PFF.
