3. Michael Onwenu, OG, Michigan

Height: 6-foot-3
Weight: 344 pounds

There are plenty of later-round interior offensive linemen worth taking a chance on in the 2020 NFL Draft. My favorite of the bunch is former Michigan offensive guard Michael Onwenu.

Onwenu is a massive man who shows tremendous power at the point of attack. He is a true people mover who fires his hands out quickly and consistently drives defenders down the field. He also shows great grip strength and plays with proper pad level. Simply put, when Onwenu gets his hands on a defender, it is typically game over for that defender.

While his power stands out the most, Onwenu is quicker and more athletic than you would expect for such a big man. I am not saying that he is an elite mover in space, but Onwenu can get out and make blocks at the second level. He is a great run blocker and solid pass protector who should be on the radar for any Gap-scheme team in the 2020 NFL Draft.

2. Antonio Gandy-Golden, WR, Liberty

Height: 6-foot-4
Weight: 223 pounds

This wide receiver class is absolutely loaded with talent and it will cause good players at the position to fall down the board. Antonio Gandy-Golden is expected to fall to the third day of the 2020 NFL Draft, but he is a gifted wide receiver prospect who should not be ignored.

Gandy-Golden is a big and physical wide receiver who tracks the ball well in the air and has a massive catch radius. He shows impressive body control in the air and shines in contested-catch situations. He does not have the speed and quickness to separate, but Gandy-Golden uses his big frame well and has great hands. This guy has a chance to grow into a real jump-ball weapon at the next level.

1. Khalil Davis, IDL, Nebraska

Height: 6-foot-1
Weight: 308 pounds

I simply cannot get enough of Khalil Davis. If I were running an NFL team, he would be my number one target on the third day of the 2020 NFL Draft, because he has a chance to make an immediate contributor as a situational player and has fantastic long-term upside.

Davis is incredibly quick off of the ball and has extremely active hands. He consistently shows great upfield burst and does a nice job of using his hands to keep opposing offensive linemen off of his body. Davis has a ton of natural upside as a one-gap penetrating interior defensive lineman at the next level, using a combination of quickness and power that cannot be ignored.

At worst, he should be able to come in and create some pressure on the interior on obvious passing downs. If he can become a more stable player at the point of attack, his long-term upside is through the roof.
