29. Tennessee Titans: Marlon Davidson, DL, Auburn

The Titans surprised a lot of people late in the season after the switch from Marcus Mariota to Ryan Tannehill at quarterback. The Titans’ most important needs are to build the lines on both sides of the ball with some younger faces.

In the 2019 NFL Draft, the Titans added Jeffery Simmons in the first round and this time around, they find a player to play on the opposite side of him in Marlon Davidson. Davidson can complete with veteran defender Jurrell Casey for the starting job next season.

Unlike Epenesa who’s stats are more polished the last two years, Davidson has shown improvement slowly each year of college. I think he will do just fine at the next level but will take him more time to develop than other edge payers selected earlier on in the night.

30. Green Bay Packers: Kenneth Murray, LB, Oklahoma

The clear direction for the Packers is linebacker but they need a wide receiver as well. With most of the top receivers already off the board, the Packers stick to defense and take Kenneth Murray.

Murray has been a very productive linebacker the last two seasons at Oklahoma he has had over 250 tackles. One stat to note is his 29.5 tackles for loss over the past two seasons. He will surely be able to get into the backfield at the next level with his speed and cause chaos for opposing quarterbacks. I believe that Murray is one of the most NFL ready linebackers in the entire 2020 NFL draft class.

31. Kansas City Chiefs: Austin Jackson, OT, USC

The Chiefs could go in many directions with this pick, one possibility is one of the running backs like J.K. Dobbins or Johnathan Taylor as they relied on LeSean McCoy and Damien Williams most of last season. They could also look at the defensive side of the ball and go cornerback or safety.

The Chiefs could also look to solidify their offensive line, doing anything they can to Patrick Mahomes on his feet. Jackson has a lot of upside as run blocker but some think he may not be an elite pass blocker. Time will tell with Jackson, but I see him as the fourth-best offensive tackle in this class and should still be a starter in the future.

32. San Francisco 49ers: Grant Delpit, S, LSU

I’m surprised that Delpit is still on the board at this point and so are the 49ers and they can not let him slide any further. They take him with the last pick of this 2020 NFL mock draft, even though safety is not their number one pressing need.

The 49ers may also consider cornerbacks and interior offensive linemen with this pick if Delpit happens to be already off the board. His stats are down a bit in 2019 from the 2018 season, but that was because of some injuries which is mainly why I believe he falls to the 49ers.
