Now, to the picks.
NFL Mock Draft
Round 1
Round 1 - Pick 1
No changes. Burrow to Bengals at No. 1 overall.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 2
At this point, I think the Redskins still go Young at No. 2 despite getting a plethora of calls about Tua at this spot.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 3
Okudah was the longest, largest cornerback at the combine and tested through the roof. Matt Patricia needs press man specialists for his defense to really cook. Easy decision.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 4
Really a no-brainer for the Giants after signing James Bradberry and Blake Martinez in free agency. Get Daniel Jones a premier pass-protector.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 5
Dream come true for the Dolphins here with Tua falling into their lap. After the dust settles on the free-agent quarterback market, there's likely to be a team that wants to leapfrog Miami to get the Alabama passer. For now, he lands in South Beach.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 6
Herbert doesn't need to play instantly with Tyrod Taylor on the roster but does give the franchise long-term viability at the game's most vital position.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 7
So you like high-caliber athletes, Matt Rhule? Here you go.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 8
After the blockbuster trade to acquire DeAndre Hopkins, the Cardinals make the logical choice to fortify the left tackle spot with the mountainous Becton.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 9
How about this pairing? Jacksonville very well could trade Nick Foles in the near future, and Love could start behind Gardner Minshew then ultimately take over, at the latest, in 2021.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 10
After signing right tackle Jack Conklin to a big deal in free agency, this may seem like an overreaction up front, but it's not. The line was pretty bad in 2019, and Thomas is a road-grader in the run game with mostly solid pass-protection chops.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 11
The offensive line still needs to be addressed, but so does the receiver group and Jeudy falls into the lap of Gang Green.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 12
The Raiders have mostly addressed the defense in free agency and Ruggs gives Derek Carr a freaky speedster and YAC monster.
| |||
From
Indianapolis Colts
Round 1 - Pick 13
Kyle Shanahan probably loves YAC ability more than any other coach in the league, and Lamb is the best YAC wideout in this class by a wide margin.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 14
Now with Tom Brady in the mix, the Buccaneers have to prioritize strengthening the offensive line, and Wills is a plug-and-play right tackle.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 15
The Broncos have to add some beef inside on their defensive front. Brown is the best run defender in the class and flashed as a pass rusher in 2019.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 16
After the release of Desmond Trufant, the Falcons will be in the market for a No. 1 cornerback. Henderson fits the bill here.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 17
After losing Robert Quinn, the Cowboys want another bendy, edge rusher with juice on the edge. That describes Chaisson perfectly.
| |||
From
Pittsburgh Steelers
Round 1 - Pick 18
The Dolphins add another piece to their defensive line in Epenesa, who can win with power on the edge or hand work and quickness in the middle.
| |||
From
Chicago Bears
Round 1 - Pick 19
Fulton has two years of super-clean tape in the SEC and the speed to stay with wideouts down the field.
| |||
From
Los Angeles Rams
Round 1 - Pick 20
With Calais Campbell gone, the Jaguars get another tall, incredibly disruptive defensive lineman who can play anywhere up front.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 21
Jefferson showed off unexpected speed at the combine and was outstanding in contested-catch situations in 2019 at LSU.
| |||
From
Buffalo Bills
Round 1 - Pick 22
Minnesota uses the pick it got from Buffalo in the Stefon Diggs trade to add a small, quick, downfield speedster at wideout.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 23
With Kyle Van Noy signing with the Dolphins in free agency, the Patriots need a versatile linebacker/edge rusher hybrid. That's what Bill Belichick gets here in Baun.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 24
The Saints get arguably the most difficult-to-tackle receiver in this class in Shenault to pair with Michael Thomas.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 25
The Vikings re-invested in Kirk Cousins, so they get him an upgrade at the left tackle spot in Jones.
| |||
From
Houston Texans
Round 1 - Pick 26
Cleveland needs to get stronger in his lower half, but his pass protection technique and athletic prowess pop in every game. Good option for the Dolphins.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 27
Welcome to the first round, Mr. Peart. He was one of the longest and most athletic tackles at the combine and has instant starting ability at right tackle.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 28
Murray has all the twitch you could want in a linebacker and is an outstanding blitzer. He'd be in for huge statistics behind Baltimore's mammoth defensive line.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 29
Even with the free-agent signing of Vic Beasley, the Titans could use more edge rush. Gross-Matos might not be completely NFL ready but has been an ascending player in college and has an exquisite defensive end frame.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 30
Kenny Clark needs a running mate on the inside, and Blacklock has a lightning quick first step.
| |||
Mock Trade from
San Francisco 49ers
Round 1 - Pick 31
Instead of double-dipping in the first round, the 49ers are content trading out to get some Day 2 picks, and the Colts pick Eason to be the heir apparent to Philip Rivers.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 32
Love this pairing. Igbinoghene is a freaky athlete with some rawness to his game, but he also had high-level reps in the SEC on the outside.
