2020 NFL Mock Draft: Dolphins rebuild starts with Tua Tagovailoa
25. player. 123. . S. Dallas Cowboys. Xavier McKinney
While the Dallas Cowboys appear confident in the secondary and they have performed well, they could still stand to upgrade from Jeff Heath. Xavier McKinney could do that for them. The Alabama product is a great athlete that can really cause problems in the box and, with some coaching, he can develop as a coverage player when asked to drop back deep.
. CB. Tennessee Titans. Jeffrey Okudah. 26. player. 35
A potentially sneaky need for the Tennessee Titans in the 2020 draft could be at cornerback. Malcolm Brown has been frustrating since the team signed him and, outside of Adoree’ Jackson, there’s not much future to feel confident in. The Titans can be confident in Jeffrey Okudah, though, as the Ohio State product is a man coverage guru ready to play in that role at the pro level right now.
27. player. 51. . EDGE. Los Angeles Rams. Julian Okwara
Aaron Donald severely needs some help in the Los Angeles Rams front and Dante Fowler isn’t the long-term answer. Julian Okwara might be, though. The Notre Dame edge rusher is a bit lean but has juice coming off the edge and getting after the quarterback. With some technical development, he can be a true asset for the Rams defense.
. LB. New Orleans Saints. Dylan Moses. 28. player. 15
The New Orleans Saints are not afraid to take a risk in the NFL Draft and that’s what they do here. Dylan Moses figured to be LB1 in the 2020 class but tore his ACL leading up to this season at Alabama. Should he still choose to leave Tuscaloosa, though, the Saints could well look to answer a need with a phenomenal athlete and defensive general that could be a steal this late in the first round once healthy and developing again.
