21. Patrick Queen, LB, Baltimore Ravens

Ravens rookie Patrick Queen struggled a bit in the opening game against the Browns, but he’s slowly gotten better as the season has progressed. Queen has been effective when blitzing, registering a couple of quarterback hits and a sack so far this season. His processing speed has clicked more regarding working downhill into gaps, and the coverage skills are there.

22. Laviska Shenault, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars

If the NFL Draft process proved anything, it’s that analysts and fans overreacted to Laviska Shenault’s injury issues during the late winter, and he fell into the second round. Shenault has been a part of the game plan in a multitude of ways, from working the mesh point on crossers to carrying the football in the backfield. His versatility makes the Jaguars a more exciting offense.

23. Antonio Gibson, RB/WR, Washington Football Team

Many people during the 2020 NFL Draft were divided on what position best fit Antonio Gibson at the next level. It looks like running back will be his primary role for the Football Team, and while his patience and vision need work, his raw talent is helping him early. Gibson has gotten the ball when lined up as a receiver as well and looks dynamic after the catch.

24. Darnell Mooney, WR, Chicago Bears

Here’s where the wide receiver depth in the 2020 NFL Draft class is showing up. Darnell Mooney’s size is what made him go day three, but he’s been dynamic with his release package and at the top of routes. Mooney looks like the WR2 in Chicago already, and it’ll be exciting to watch him the rest of the season.

25. Solomon Kindley, OL, Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins offensive line rebuild is going well, and day three pick Solomon Kindley has been solid so far at guard. He’s been stout at the point of attack and has been crucial to the run game opening up more.
