NFL: ***2020 NFL Draft Thread***

[BigJCy]

With the Draft tomorrow figured I would start this up. Hopefully we gets some trades & surprises.

Here is the NFL Network's Draft "expert" final Mock Draft:



Fox Sports Joel Klatt did one as well:

My Packers need a WR weapon for Rodgers to go along with Adams and Lazard. Either that or a OT to replace Bulaga.

If they go QB in rd 1 like some have said.... I give up.

They have a 2-3 year window to possibly win another Super Bowl with Rodgers. They need to go all out and surround him with weapons NOW!

Just admit it.... you're not even a Giants fan... you just want to see Wirfs go #4.

I do think Wirfs is a homerun pick though. I don't think he'll ever be the best OL in the league, but he will be a very solid long time NFL starter for sure.

Sounds like Epenesa will probably go late first round as well. That's a reach IMO. Disappeared way too often at Iowa and is mostly a situational player. Teams would run at him on purpose. He wasn't good against the run.

I've been a NYG fan since 1984.

I believe you. But just admit it, you want to see Wirfs in a NYG uniform. I wouldn't blame you for that. Hard to pass on a sure thing NFL starter at the tackle position. There is no way Wirfs will be a bust. That's huge.

Reports coming out Falcons tried trading up to Redskins #2 and the Skins are staying put.

 

[CloneGuy8]

Lot of talk about Tua slipping. We'll see if its just smoke another team is putting out there

To get Chase Young I assume? What were the Falcons going to offer I wonder?

I'd be down with Wirfs or Becton. I've been wanting them to focus on the OL the past several drafts, ever since Flowers proved to be a bust. Hernandez at G wasn't bad but other than that they've done nothing.

Would have had to be a ton that's for sure.

If the bears wanted to take him I wouldn't mind

I think where Tua goes could be the most interesting thing to watch tomorrow night. A lot of other things seem pretty well established. I guess Jordan Love is another interesting tidbit. I've seen him anywhere from middle of round 1, to not going in round 1 at all.

Dont know the offer yet:

Theres a stat out there that a lefty hasn't made an NFL pass in like two years. Crazy.

AJ had an 85 grade against the run per PFF.

A lot of smoke coming out about the Chiefs trading Chris Jones before the draft tomorrow and then taking the TCU DT as a replacement.

Hope not. Jones was one of the reasons the Chiefs won the SB. Hopefully we can have him for the repeat and then you’ll probably have to cut ties.

I have been doing mock drafts for a long time and do two every year - one with no trades and one with. I predict the picks correctly just as well as any of the experts, and I put in hundreds of hours scouting players and all that. So I want to throw out a crazy trade scenario.....

First off... The Chargers jump up to #4 and take Justin Herbert. The Dolphins surprise everyone and pass on Tua. Instead, they trade pick #5 and a late 3rd round pick to Jacksonville for pick #9 and a 2021 1st round pick. The plan is to have the ammunition to trade up for Trevor Lawrence in next year's draft. So in the meantime, they focus on building an o-line and getting weapons for when Lawrence arrives next year. They select Mekhi Becton with pick #9, Cesar Ruiz with pick # 18, Justin Jefferson with pick #26 and D'Andre Swift with pick #39. They added some solid defensive players in free agency so they can focus on offense in the draft. With their other 2nd round pick, I have them taking Grant Delpit, and then it's back to adding offensive players in round 3.

I have the Vikings taking Ruggs with pick #22 after Philly passes on him to take Kenneth Murray, and then I have Minnesota taking DE Yetur Gross-Matos at pick 25.
