Clemson. 9. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. 52. LB/S. Isaiah Simmons. player

The Jacksonville Jaguars have two selections in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft, and with their first pick, they select Isaiah Simmons out of Clemson. While Simmons played the majority of this season at linebacker, he shouldn’t be limited to that position. He can cover in the slot and play in a single high look with his speed and ball skills. The Jaguars can put him in multiple spots to succeed in the NFL.

Tristan Wirfs. 10. OT. Iowa. player. 53. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis

The Cleveland Browns made a decision to go with Kevin Stefanski as their new head coach, which will hopefully help out Baker Mayfield and the running game. With that said, offensive line needs to be the pick for Cleveland in the first round. Tristan Wirfs would be a very good selection here for the Browns. Wirfs has experience on both sides of the line at tackle and is a very good athlete in space and powerful at the point of attack.

OT. 30. Pick Analysis. Alabama. Jedrick Wills. 11. player. Scouting Report

The New York Jets also need offensive line help in the 2020 NFL Draft after watching Sam Darnold get pressured all season long. Jedrick Wills would be a great add here at 11th overall. Wills has excellent footwork for a tackle and can recover with quick feet. He can also get out in space and move and bully defensive linemen at the point of attack. Wills is arguably the best tackle in the class.

Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. WR. Alabama. Henry Ruggs III. 12. 28. player

The Las Vegas Raiders have two first-round selections in this draft, and with plenty of needs, it would be good to stay put and get two very talented players. The first of those two in this mock is Henry Ruggs III. When Ruggs lines up and runs at the combine and the result comes up, there’s a chance he goes higher than this. His speed and contested-catch ability make him a very good number one for the Raiders.
