New first round 2020 NFL Draft predictions after divisional playoff weekend features three quarterbacks in the top six.

It’s been a wild week since our last Monday mock draft at NFL Mocks. Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa officially declared for the 2020 NFL Draft, along with his teammate, Henry Ruggs III. We also got to see a great group of games on divisional weekend.

The San Francisco 49ers took down the Minnesota Vikings 27-10 in the first game, with a big performance from Tevin Coleman on the ground and an outstanding performance once again by the defense, who limited Dalvin Cook and constantly put pressure on Kirk Cousins.

The Tennessee Titans shocked the world on Saturday night, with a 28-12 win over the top seed Baltimore Ravens. Derrick Henry became the first running back in NFL history to put up 180+ rushing yards in three straight games, and the defense made life difficult for Lamar Jackson.

On Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs took the first quarter off after some special teams issues and found themselves down to the Houston Texans 24-0 early in the second quarter. After a failed fake punt by the Texans, the Chiefs found a groove, scoring on six straight possessions unanswered to take a 41-24 lead, and the Chiefs won 51-31 in a classic.

The Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks finished off the weekend, and the Packers built a 21-3 lead heading into halftime. The Seahawks rallied, but the Packers picked up two key third downs to ice the game, 28-23.

For four more NFL teams, their focus shifts to the offseason and the 2020 NFL Draft. How could the first round shake out? Let’s take a look!
