Pick Analysis. RB. Ohio State. 57. player. Scouting Report. J.K. Dobbins. 51

There are likely to be many people who aren’t fans of this pick but the simple truth is that the Rams need a high-level replacement for Todd Gurley. J.K. Dobbins can be that as a dual-threat player out of the backfield that can re-open the play-action passing that helps the LA offense thrive.

Pick Analysis. EDGE. Boise State. Curtis Weaver. player. Scouting Report. 58. 60

Curtis Weaver just feels like the exact type of player that Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer is going to love. While the Boise State product isn’t the greatest athlete nor does he have atypical size, his production in college and his motor stand out and he’s going to be a gritty presence at a position where there’s a newfound hole.

59. player. 36. Pick Analysis. OT. Houston. Scouting Report. Josh Jones

This is just a gut feeling but the fact that Josh Jones didn’t go in the first round tells me he might not be valued quite as highly as some think. For the Seahawks, however, they take the mountain out of Houston to try and provide some long-term protection for Russell Wilson on the O-line.

60. WR. Michigan. Donovan Peoples-Jones. player. 26. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis

It’s pretty much take-your-pick for the Ravens and the wide receivers left on the board at No. 60. For me, Donovan Peoples-Jones seemingly fits the mold for what they could use. He’s a great blend of size, athleticism and skill/potential to give Baltimore’s offense a new dynamic.

Raekwon Davis. 35. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Alabama. 61. player. IDL

Trading Jurrell Casey has left a substantial hole on the Titans defensive line. Raekwon Davis is a big enough man to fill that hole. A former 5-star recruit, Davis was never the star many thought he’d be for Alabama but his size and traits make him well worth a late-second-round pick.

WR. Laviska Shenault Jr.. 62. 49. Pick Analysis. Colorado. player. Scouting Report

Taking Jordan Love at No. 26 — yes, they traded up for him — was the Packers’ big surprise for everyone. Now they get their quarterback of the now, Aaron Rodgers, the weapon he needs in Laviska Shenault. The Colorado product can be a stud if healthy but injuries allow him to fall to Green Bay in this spot.

player. Pick Analysis. IOL. Ohio State. Jonah Jackson. 63. 124. Scouting Report

Taking a running back in Round 1 tells me the Chiefs are willing to focus on their offensive “needs”. The next up to get this unit in the best shape possible is the interior of the O-line, which Jonah Jackson can fill. While he still needs some technique work, the tool chest is full for the former Buckeye.

64. Scouting Report. EDGE. Notre Dame. 36. Pick Analysis. Julian Okwara. player

All signs point to the fact that the Seahawks aren’t going to have Jadeveon Clowney for the 2020 season. That means Julian Okwara becomes an incredibly valuable prospect for them. While his inconsistency is frustrating, there is plenty of talent for Seattle to mine out of the Notre Dame standout.
