By Ian Higgins
The 2020 NFL Draft has had an assortment of names and player come through its mock draft boards. Which of these names stands above the rest as an athlete?
The NFL is a league of speed and power. Rookies who can bring a new dimension of explosiveness to their team become valuable commodities, and shoot up draft boards depending upon their skill set.
Past prospects such as D.K. Metcalf, Robert Griffin III, and Chris Johnson have been influential in growing hysteria over freakish prospects, and when paired with the impact of social media, creates an online community of talent-seekers looking for the next generational talent still in high school.
The 2020 NFL draft provides a unique talent pool that could change the direction of numerous franchises, and these draft steals may be the keys to starting those changes. These prospects are not ranked in any specific order but are all standouts in their physical measurements and the way they play the game.
Athletes will be chosen based upon how they measure up compared to their fellow players within a position group. We will start on the offensive side of the ball at quarterback and work our way through to the back end of the defense.
Players chosen may also not be the typical picks for ‘most athletic.’ These players will be chosen based upon their athletic ability within their position, not just by their measurements and pure athletic capability.
