With the real thing right around the corner, we look at another three-round 2020 NFL Mock Draft which sees the Dallas Cowboys land an edge rusher and Las Vegas Raiders get a standout wide receiver

The NFL Draft has become a huge event that spans an entire weekend. Starting in primetime Thursday, April 23 and running through Saturday, April 25, fans from all over the nation will be tuning in to see which players land on their favorite teams.

This event has grown in popularity and started to travel around the country. What was once held annually in New York, the draft shifted to Chicago for a couple of seasons before heading to Philadelphia and Dallas. This past season, it was in Nashville and is scheduled to take place in Cleveland in 2021.

As for the 2020 NFL Draft, things were supposed to unfold in Las Vegas, the new home of the Raiders. Unfortunately, COVID-19 has affected all of our plans and the draft is now being held virtually — which will include NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell announcing picks from his basement. It should be an interesting event that’s sure to still be a huge draw.

And with it right around the corner, the speculation has been running rampant. There are as many rumors as ever in regards to who will be willing to move up — or down — the boards. There are also plenty of 2020 NFL Mock Drafts out there guessing which players will land on what teams, and we dive right into another here where we look at the first three rounds.

In this mock, we see the Raiders land themselves a No. 1 wide receiver while the Dallas Cowboys find a legitimate right defensive end to round out their defense. And with all that being said, we dive into the first pick of this mock.
