2020 NFL Draft: Justin Herbert goes No. 1 in first-round NFL mock draft

Pick Analysis. Wide Receiver. 26. player. 16. Scouting Report. TCU. Jalen Reagor
Josh Allen has continued to develop in 2019. The team’s overall fortunes this year have improved, and yet it’s still hard to take the team seriously as a playoff contender. The Bills used their first-round pick last year on the franchise quarterback of their future but have so far surrounded him with only limited receivers. The Bills will need to draft a wide receiver who can break open a game at any moment and provide a deep target for the 2nd year quarterback and his cannon of an arm.
Jalen Reagor is the perfect candidate for this team. In the 2020 NFL draft, he is a top 5 wide receiver that will be available to be drafted this late in the draft. Last year he had over 1,000 yards receiving and provided a great release valve for the TCU offense. He has all the skills a team is looking for in a number one receiver.
Besides running deep he is good at selling double moves, can separate after catching the ball and can play physically against his defenders. This year has been a little disappointing from a stats side of things. He also plays for a less popular team than some of the other receivers on this list, which is why I think he will fall as far as he does on this list.
Reagor has the raw talent to spare and could become the difference maker this team needs to make the jump to the next level.
For the first time in years, this team has a good defense, quarterback and running game. Their offensive line has been average, but the NFL average is about as good as you are going to get. It’s time Bills fans. No more rebuilds. The 2020 NFL draft is a great time for the Bills to get the final skill position pieces it needs to complete this offense. This team has all the things it needs to make a run at the AFC East, after years of Patriots hegemony.
Reagor could become the key to making the Bills the team no one wants to play. With a true blue-chip receiver like him peeling the tops off defenses in the AFC, expect the Bills to make a run for more than playoff contention.
