2020 NFL Mock Draft: Panthers start anew with Jalen Hurts, Cowboys luck into Delpit

Talk about a position that an organization didn’t expect to find themselves in. The Jacksonville Jaguars paid Nick Foles handsomely to be their franchise quarterback and, upon returning from his collarbone injury, has been promptly benched for the guy that filled in for him when he was out injured, sixth-round rookie Gardner Minshew. Now there’s a viable quarterback controversy moving forward.

While the Jaguars do need to shore up their secondary and perhaps the middle of the defense, they have another first-round pick and drastically need more weapons in the passing game. That’s why they take WR1 in this 2020 NFL Mock Draft, Alabama’s Jerry Jeudy. The Crimson Tide wideout is the complete package that could be a No. 1 weapon opposite D.J. Chark for years to come, no matter who is lining up under center.

Perhaps the most impressive thing that the Atlanta Falcons have shown in 2019 is their onside kick coverage after bringing in Younghoe Koo. On Thanksgiving, the Falcons recovered three consecutive onside kicks (one of which was nullified) against the Saints to make a blowout suddenly interesting. Outside of that, though, this team has left a lot to be desired, especially on defense.

The Falcons need to find a way to get pressure up front and they can’t ready to do it. They would love to get an edge presence but an elite force like Derrick Brown out of Auburn is too enticing to pass up at the No. 6 pick. Brown offers a matchup nightmare with his explosion and power in the trenches and would pair beautifully with Grady Jarrett in the middle to shore up the defensive line in Atlanta.
