2020 NFL Mock Draft: Indianapolis Colts find their franchise quarterback

This 2020 NFL mock draft of the entire first-round sees multiple quarterbacks taken early.

The 2020 NFL draft which is set to take place in Las Vegas this April could see four quarterbacks taken early in the first round. This draft class is also loaded with wide receiver talent throughout all rounds.

I believe we will see four quarterbacks taken in the first round with Joe Burrow the LSU graduate, Tua Tagovailoa from Alabama, Jordan Love from Utah State and Justin Herbert from Oregon all off of the board. These four quarterbacks could be gone before the midway point in the first round and if that happens it wouldn’t shock me to see a fifth quarterback taken near the end of the first round.

So keep an eye on Washington’s Jacob Eason and Jake Fromm from Georgia if teams start making a run at quarterbacks early on to be potential late first-rounders, if not early second-round players.

Looking back at the receiver class there are nine wide receivers in Daniel Jeremiah’s top 50 prospect list. Seven of those land in his top 29, making for the potential to see this as the highest prospect total of any position on the night.

I believe the first-round has the potential to see more offensive players being drafted than defensive players. That being said there still is top defensive talent in this class, and the best talent of the entire class being defensive end Chase Young from Ohio State. Defensive tackle Derrick Brown, cornerback Jeff Okudah and linebacker Isaiah Simmons are also top ten talents in the 2020 NFL Draft class.

The draft order is set for draft selections 1-30, only picks 31st and 32nd are yet to be determined until after the Super Bowl. For the purpose of this mock draft, we will decide those two picks by their respective records. So Kansas City will be placed 31st because of their 12-4 record and San Francisco will be placed 32nd after finishing 13-3.

The Miami Dolphins have the most picks in round one with three selections, followed by the Las Vegas Raiders and the Jacksonville Jaguars who have two apiece. Pittsburgh, Chicago, Houston, and the Los Angeles Rams are all without first-round picks in the 2020 NFL Draft unless they were to trade up.

Now, it is time for this 2020 NFL mock draft, Cincinnati you are now on the clock!
