2020 NFL Draft: Who goes after Burrow, Young in first-round mock draft?

We know that the 2020 NFL Draft is likely to begin with Joe Burrow and Chase Young going back-to-back, but what will happen after that? In this 2020 NFL mock draft, we take a look at an interesting first-round scenario.

With the NFL regular season behind us, the 2020 NFL Draft is rapidly approaching. Within the next couple of weeks, we will have the Senior Bowl and not long after that, the entire league will head to Indianapolis for the NFL Scouting Combine. Before you know it, the 2020 NFL Draft will be here.

While we still have some potential early declarations before we know what the class will completely look like, this is shaping up to be an impressive group of players who will be entering the league. The top two picks are starting to look extremely obvious, but the rest of the first round will undoubtedly be interesting and up in the air.

Today, we are going to predict the entire first round of the 2020 NFL Draft with a mock draft scenario. Who does your favorite team end up with? Follow along to find out.

The Cincinnati Bengals hold the first overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft and have a major need at the quarterback position. Joe Burrow has been absolutely incredible for LSU this season and will look to lead the Tigers to a National Championship a week from now. Burrow is the top quarterback prospect in the 2020 NFL Draft and the Bengals need a guy to lead them into the future. Burrow is great and the Bengals are going to take him. It’s as simple as that.

This one is pretty easy as well. Chase Young is considered by most to be the top prospect in the 2020 NFL draft class. Unless the Washington Redskins trade this pick in order to fill a more pressing need, Young will be the pick for Washington here. Adding Young to a defensive line that already features Jonathan Allen, Matthew Ioannidis, Montez Sweat and Da’Ron Payne. With this pick, Washington all of a sudden has the best young defensive line in the NFL.
