2020 NFL Mock Draft: Three rounds with latest rumors and predictions
In my final 2020 NFL Mock Draft, I gather all the latest rumors and buzz to form accurate predictions. How many players will Tua be looking up at in the end?
It is finally here! It is draft week The draft is TOMORROW! So it is time to lock in one final 2020 NFL Mock Draft before the Cincinnati Bengals are on the virtual clock at 8:00 pm ET.
For this final mock draft attempt, I tried to gather as much information I could about who each team may be interested in and pick up on all the latest rumors and buzz surrounding the draft. It’s far from an exact science, and you never know what might happen on draft day. Especially this year.
With everything that is going on in the world today, the 2020 NFL Draft can hopefully a welcomed distraction to football fans around the world. It is not to try to make light of what is a very serious matter, but the draft is always a highly anticipated event that is enjoyed globally.
The circumstances, however, will have their own effect on the draft. Everything will be done remotely, apparently down to the booing of Commissioner Roger Goodell. The league even conducted their own 2020 NFL Mock Draft of sorts, a dress rehearsal to ensure that they are prepared for anything that could happen come Thursday.
With hardly any college pro days or team visits, all communication has been done online. Scouts don’t meet up. Front offices don’t talk to players face-to-face. Prospects don’t have a final chance to show teams what they can do.
But one thing is for sure, aside from maybe some more or less advanced technology, every team is dealing with the same stuff and is in the same situation. This is a very unique draft that will be different for everyone involved. General managers, coaches, prospects and fans… everyone is going to have to adapt.
An accurate 2020 NFL Mock Draft might go down as one of the biggest impossibilities in history. Team staff members have already said that the mocks out there in the mainstream media are going to be way off. And that is before the inevitable twists and turns of draft night.
When you factor in possible trades, unknown medical reports, varying reports of prospect interest and the effect that the heavy use of technology all may play into this draft, it seems harder and harder to predict.
But here we are! No matter how wrong you may be, it’s always fun to give it your best guess. Taking into account all the information I could gather in the past couple of days leading up to the draft, here is my final take at a predictive, three-round 2020 NFL Mock Draft with trades.
