NFL Mock Draft 2020: Six receivers taken in Round 1, but none inside the top 10

The obvious No. 1 selection throughout the process.

Washington would be better served trading down, but probably won’t.

Matt Patricia came to Detroit from New England where he deployed all kinds of versatile linebackers within Bill Belichick’s scheme. Simmons may be even more versatile than anyone he had with the Pats.

Figuring out a way to make Daniel Jones successful has to be New York’s No. 1 priority. Start by affording him better protection.

Landing Tua at No. 5 is a coup, especially when you consider that pretty much everyone thought the Dolphins would have to tank to the bottom of the league for him.

I’m not entirely sure why more people don’t see tackle as an obvious need for the Bolts. Bryan Bulaga is locked in at one spot, but what about the other side of the line?

After letting James Bradberry walk in free agency, the Panthers find his long-term replacement right here.

Kyler Murray was among the worst-protected quarterbacks in the NFL last season so upgrading the unit in front of him has to be a top priority, and landing Becton helps immensely.

If the Jaguars were really sold on Gardner Minshew, they wouldn’t have given the job back to Nick Foles last season. Just because Foles was sent packing, doesn’t mean they aren’t still looking for their long-term answer here.

You should be sensing a theme here, with teams that have young quarterbacks desperately needing to upgrade the protection in front of them. The Browns have been a rumored destination for Trent Williams, but if that doesn’t come to fruition, this is a nice backup plan.

The Jets desperately need to provide Sam Darnold a real No. 1 receiver. They have their pick of the litter in this mock and go with Jeudy.

The Raiders add some deep speed on the outside to complement Darren Waller and Hunter Renfrow over the middle.

The best run-after-catch guy in the class fits in perfectly with the 49ers’ skill position ethos.

Shaq Barrett is essentially on a one-year deal and Jason Pierre-Paul is entering his mid-30s. There needs to be somebody besides those two guys around to rush the passer.

Who’s getting the snaps opposite A.J. Bouye at corner? Bryce Callahan is a pure slot guy, and what was once one of the deepest units in the league is now pretty thin beyond those two players.

Letting Brown and Grady Jarrett try to wreck offensive lines from the middle of the formation would be pretty fun.

The Cowboys let Byron Jones walk, and have yet to find a suitable replacement. Even after extending Anthony Brown, there is still a need at the position in both the short and long-term, with two more corners up for free agency next year.

Tua is going to need somebody to throw to beyond DeVante Parker, who can’t necessarily be counted on as a No. 1 guy anyway. Jefferson is a game-breaker who fits the mold.

McKinney has the flexibility to play several spots in the secondary, which should help a defense in need of help all over the place.

The Jags have hemorrhaged defensive linemen over the past several years, and here they get lucky with a potential stud falling into their laps in the mid-first.

Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson are a nice start, but the Eagles need to provide Carson Wentz with more on the perimeter. Especially in the long-term.

Mike Zimmer and Rick Spielman love drafting corners.

Baun is essentially the prototypical Patriots linebacker, a versatile player who can rush the edge and play in coverage.

The New Orleans linebacker group is aging and could use an infusion of youth and flexibility.

Minnesota’s offensive line was better last year, but still needs improvement. Jones would help a lot.

Three picks, three premium-position upgrades on offense.

Consider this a do-over for the L.J. Collier pick.

Baltimore has seen C.J. Mosley and Patrick Onwuasor leave in back-to-back offseasons. Murray steps right in as a replacement.

The Titans need to get Adoree’ Jackson some help on the outside. Diggs provides that and more.

There are any number of receivers the Packers could go with in this spot, but they need to get Aaron Rodgers somebody to throw to other than Davante Adams.

Arnette isn’t thought of quite as highly as Okudah, but that shouldn’t matter to the Niners this late in the first.

Epenesa provides the versatility to rush inside and out and would be a strong complement to Frank Clark on the edge.
