16. . WR. Buffalo Bills. Henry Ruggs III. 9. player

Alabama wide receiver Henry Ruggs III is going to make the 2020 NFL Combine must watch. He’s that much of a speed freak and it shows on the field. And that also makes him seem tailormade for Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen. This is a quarterback whose success is half predicated on his deep ball prowess and Ruggs is a true downfield weapon that could help the Buffalo offense capitalize on that more consistently.

. CB. Denver Broncos. Kristian Fulton. 10. player. 45

There are talented cornerbacks on the Denver Broncos defense right now. At the same time, though, Chris Harris‘ future with this team is in doubt and that would leave them needing a true No. 1. LSU’s Kristian Fulton can be that player, a tremendous shutdown player on the outside that, though some may not want to admit it, was better than 2019 second-round Greedy Williams last season at LSU.

QB. Cincinnati Bengals. Jake Fromm. 11. player. 56.

It should be noted that Andy Dalton looked good for the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 1. Having said that, it’s time for this franchise to commit to hitting reset, which they do by taking Jake Fromm. Perhaps the safest quarterback pick, despite limited upside, in this class, Fromm can be a slight upgrade from Dalton while not offering a great deal of risk either.

87. . OT. Carolina Panthers. Tristan Wirfs. 12. player

After dropping to 0-2 on Thursday night, the Carolina Panthers clearly have problems. And few of those issues — outside of what Cam Newton looks like right now — are more glaring than the offensive line. Thus, they add a day-one starter in Tristan Wirfs out of Iowa. He’d be an immediate starter at offensive tackle and certainly help out Newton and Christian McCaffrey in being more consistently effective.
