2020 NFL Mock Draft: Raiders, Jaguars make big trades in round one
With the Scouting Combine complete, we take a look at how it may affect the 2020 NFL Draft with this first-round 2020 NFL Mock Draft with trades.
Well folks, the 2020 NFL Draft Scouting Combine is officially completed. Now having a few days to digest the week-long congregation of NFL brain trusts and draft prospects in Indianapolis, we can now create an even more accurate 2020 NFL mock draft.
With the rumors that have swirled regarding which team likes which player and having a chance to see the prospects go through workouts, the picture has started to become ever so slightly clearer how things may play out in April at the 2020 NFL Draft.
The draft prospects were measured (including their hand size) and tested on the field, at the podium, in the “gym” and in the medical room. The combine has pretty clearly been the most important week in the draft process for quite some time and will certainly play a large role this year as well.
Will the medical evaluations help clear some injury question marks surrounding some top prospects like Tua Tagovailoa? How much will a poor showing hurt a guy with top-of-the-draft film like Derrick Brown? Will blazing 40 times and athletic performances help launch guys like Isaiah Simmons, Justin Jefferson, Tristan Wirfs and Donovan Peoples-Jones up draft boards?
There is still a lot of time between now and April 23rd when the 2020 NFL Draft officially opens in Las Vegas. Plenty of time for storylines to develop, prospects to meet with and impress teams and the entire landscape of the draft to play out completely different than in this 2020 NFL mock draft.
But knowing what we know right now, with the Scouting Combine in the books, this is one way that I could realistically see the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft playing out, including a few trades.
