2020 NFL Mock Draft: Raiders hit reset at quarterback, Jets get star on edge
By Randy Gurzi
6. Buffalo Bills: Jerry Jeudy, WR, Alabama
In 2018, the Buffalo Bills landed a potential franchise quarterback in the first round when they took Josh Allen out of Wyoming. Gifted with a cannon for an arm, Allen showed off great mobility as a rookie and ended up with a 5-6 record as a starter. While there was plenty about his play that could be criticized — namely his accuracy — he at least showed flashes despite having limited weapons to work with.
This season, the Bills hope to see him take another step forward and have gotten him a few players to work with as he aims to improve. At wide receiver, they added John Brown and Cole Beasley in free agency as well as former Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tyler Kroft. They also picked up two rookie tight ends in Dawson Knox from Ole Miss and Tommy Sweeney, the Boston College product.
Buffalo adds more help for Allen here as they take the first wide receiver in this class, which is Alabama’s Jerry Jeudy. A breakout star as a sophomore, Jeudy recorded 68 receptions for 1,315 yards and 14 touchdowns. He averaged just over 19 yards per reception and could give Buffalo a true No. 1 receiver, which will only help Allen look better as a passer.
