2020 NFL Mock Draft: Raiders score Isaiah Simmons, Eagles address secondary

Even with the emergence of D.J. Chark in the 2019 season, the pass-catchers for the Jacksonville Jaguars leave a lot to be desired right now. Yes, this team has questions at quarterback after Gardner Minshew‘s breakout performance but they need to get him some help. Enter CeeDee Lamb, a big target capable of doing it all. Contested catches, big plays and getting yards after the catch, the Oklahoma product can do it all and really help open up things in Duval County.

The Cleveland Browns have yet to fill their head coach vacancy but you’re blind if you don’t think this team still has clear, immense talent with Baker Mayfield, Odell Beckham Jr., Nick Chubb and Jarvis Landry on offense. But to make those weapons work, they need to get something cooking in the trenches, which is where Alabama’s Jedrick Wills comes into the fold. Wills’ 2019 tape was phenomenal and he projects as a Day 1 starter that will immediately help solidify the line.

Tristan Wirfs falling to the New York Jets is a gift for Adam Gase and Gang Green. The Iowa offensive tackle is readymade to take the field as soon as he’s drafted and that’s what the Jets offense needs in front of Sam Darnold and Le’Veon Bell, both of whom were rendered largely ineffective in 2019 thanks to the shortcomings of the offensive line. Wirfs can help remedy that and get this offense on track.

After working to get culture-setting type guys in the draft last season, I would love to see Jon Gruden and Mike Mayock be aggressive in 2020 to try and make a game-changing move in the draft with their two first-round picks. But with no trades in this NFL Mock Draft, they stay put and still get a game-changer in Isaiah Simmons.

The do-it-all defender from Clemson is as versatile as they come, just as effective as a linebacker playing downhill as he is playing safety and dropping into coverage. He’s the exact type of piece the Las Vegas Raiders need to help anchor the middle of the defense.
