2020 NFL Draft grades: Instant reactions for every Day 3 pick

Handing out instant grades for every 2020 NFL Draft pick on Day 3, from the late-round steals to the dart-throws at the board.

Some people may scoff at Day 3 of the 2020 NFL Draft simply because most (if not all) of the blue-chip prospects are off of the board. But the truth of the matter is that the NFL Draft can legitimately be won or lost in Rounds 4-7. Yes, the name-brand picks aren’t there but finding valuable contributors late in the draft is where teams make their money.

Of course, you could already make the case that some teams are big winners or losers after the first two days of the draft. Teams like the Dallas Cowboys and Baltimore Ravens have done phenomenally, landing Trevon Diggs and J.K. Dobbins on Day 2, respectively. Meanwhile, franchises such as the Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles have drawn the ire of fans with the selections of AJ Dillon and Jalen Hurts, respectively.

But even clubs like the Packers and Eagles, among others, can salvage the class to some degree if they do well on Day 3 of the 2020 NFL Draft. Of course, they could also make it worse.

That’s what we are here to decide. As we have for the first two days — but with much more volume — we’re going to hand out NFL Draft grades for every pick from the fourth round, fifth round, sixth round and seventh round.

Starting with the No. 107 pick and going all the way to No. 255 and Mr. Irrelevant, let’s get into it.

Round 4

107. Cincinnati Bengals – Akeem Davis-Gaither, LB, Appalachian State

An incredible athlete that’s undersized, Davis-Gaither should be a nice move piece for Cincinnati. Grade: A

108. Washington Redskins – Saahdiq Charles, OT, LSU

Red flags are why Charles dropped, not talent. He can replace Trent Williams, who was traded to San Fran just before the pick. Grade: A

109. Las Vegas Raiders – John Simpson, IOL, Clemson

If you wanna play in Vegas, go to Clemson or Alabama. Simpson is a nice player though who should help the Raiders O-line. Grade: B+

110. New York Giants – Darnay Holmes, CB, UCLA

Love this pick for the Giants. Their secondary left a lot to be desired and Holmes should see the field right away. Grade: A

111. Miami Dolphins – Solomon Kindley, OL, Georgia

Maybe a reach for the Dolphins here but Kindley helps to continue protecting Tua. Grade: B-

112. Los Angeles Chargers – Joshua Kelley, RB, UCLA

Great pick here. Kelley isn’t a game-changer but his pairing with Austin Ekeler behind an improved offensive line is quite tantalizing. Grade: B+

113. Carolina Panthers – Troy Pride Jr., CB, Notre Dame

The fourth round is starting off strong. Carolina has some tough receiver matchups and Pride Jr. is a high-end man-coverage player. Grade: A

114. Arizona Cardinals – Leki Fotu, DT, Utah

Arizona lacked a presence on the defensive front and, while Fotu isn’t versatile, he’s tough and effective. Grade: B+

115. Cleveland Browns – Harrison Bryant, TE, Florida Atlantic

The Browns now have one of the strongest tight end rooms in the league as Bryant gives the offense another weapon. Grade: B

116. Jacksonville Jaguars – Ben Bartch, OT, St. John’s

Top prospects still on the board are flying off. Bartch has small-school pedigree but big talent. He’s a tackle of the future for the Jags. Grade: A-

117. Minnesota Vikings – D.J. Wonnum, DE, South Carolina

This is a bit of a reach on Wonnum for me but I do think he can be an effective player, especially in a good environment like Minnesota. Grade: C+

118. Denver Broncos – Albert Okwuegbunam, TE, Missouri

Elite athlete but the film leaves a lot to be desired. The Broncos are loading up on weapons in a big way as he pairs with Noah Fant. Grade: B-

119. Atlanta Falcons – Mykal Walker, LB, Fresno State

Linebackers are basically pick your preferred poison at this point. Walker does some good things but has warts too. Grade: B-

120. New York Jets – Lamical Perine, RB, Florida

Don’t hate this pickup at all for the Jets. Bell wasn’t all that good in 2019 and they need someone to spell him. Perine’s a good football player. Grade B+

121. Detroit Lions – Logan Stenberg, OG, Kentucky

Stenberg is hugely powerful and it’s clear that the Lions value revamping the interior of the O-line. Grade: B

122. Indianapolis Colts – Jacob Eason, QB, Washington

Philip Rivers is near 40 and on a one-year deal. Letting big-armed Eason come in and learn behind him is not the worst idea for the Colts. Grade: A

123. Dallas Cowboys – Reggie Robinson II, DB, Tulsa

One of my favorites, Robinson checks boxes for size and athleticism. With some technical refinement, he can be a stud. Grade: A

124. Pittsburgh Steelers – Anthony McFarland Jr., RB, Maryland

High upside pick here. McFarland has speed to burn and the Steelers might need to replace James Conner. Grade: B

125. New York Jets – James Morgan, QB, FIU

This makes a ton of sense. Last year showed the Jets don’t have a backup for Sam Darnold. Morgan is raw but the talent is there. Grade: B+

126. Houston Texans – Charlie Heck, OT, North Carolina

Trading up to make this pick gets the Texans right back on track with questioning what Bill O’Brien is doing. Grade: C-

127. Philadelphia Eagles – K’Von Wallace, S, Clemson

Wallace is a great pickup here for the Eagles. His versatility and coverage in the secondary should make him a day-one starter. Grade: A

128. Buffalo Bills – Gabriel Davis, WR, UCF

A big-play threat, the Bills get Josh Allen another quality weapon that should be a nice addition. Grade: B+

129. New York Jets – Cameron Clark, OL, Charlotte

Man, this felt like a reach. Clark has some upside but I’m not sure he makes a ton of sense in the top 150. Grade: C+

130. Minnesota Vikings – James Lynch, DL, Baylor

Lynch isn’t a great athlete but he works his tail off on the field and makes plays with that. Like his mentality in Minnesota. Grade: B+

131. Arizona Cardinals – Rashard Lawrence, DL, LSU

A player who never fully realized his potential, even if he works hard, this could be a nice presence in Arizona. Grade: B

132. Minnesota Vikings – Troy Dye, LB, Oregon

Dye doesn’t make a ton of sense for the Vikings in their current situation but I like his upside if he can bulk up a bit. Grade: C+

133. Seattle Seahawks – Colby Parkinson, TE, Stanford

Parkinson is a guy a lot of people like. I’m take-it-or-leave-it but think he can help the Seahawks offense. Grade: B+

134. Atlanta Falcons – Jaylinn Hawkins, S, California

Safety depth has been an issue for the Falcons and Hawkins has the potential to upgrade that. He’s a smart player who provides some juice, even if he’s a reach. Grade: B-

135. Pittsburgh Steelers – Kevin Dotson, OG, Louisiana

Whew, this was a reach. A big one. The Steelers needed interior line depth but there were better places to find it. Grade: D

136. Los Angeles Rams – Brycen Hopkins, TE, Purdue

Is Hopkins good value here? For sure. Does he make any sense for what the Rams need? That’s a definite no. Grade: C-

137. Jacksonville Jaguars – Josiah Scott, CB, Michigan State

Continuing to reshape this defense, Josiah Scott has nice upside as a nickel and should fit well with the Jags. Grade: A-

138. Kansas City Chiefs – L’Jarius Sneed, DB, Louisiana Tech

Traits and versatility, Sneed has a ton of upside and the Chiefs are obviously in the position to take a gamble or two. Grade: B+

139. Las Vegas Raiders – Amik Robertson, CB, Louisiana Tech

The first non-Power 5 player the Raiders have grabbed, Robertson is a potential stud. Diminutive in size, his ball skills and footwork are tremendous. Grade: A

140. Jacksonville Jaguars – Shaquille Quarterman, LB, Miami

Quarterman isn’t versatile but he’s a tone-setter and great run defender who gives the Jags another piece on that side of the ball. Grade: B

141. Houston Texans – John Reid, CB, Penn State

There’s nothing out of this world about Reid but he does many things well and should be a nice addition in the secondary. Grade: B-

142. Washington Redskins – Antonio Gandy-Golden, WR, Liberty

Gandy-Golden dominated competition at Liberty and has a ton of tools that could help expand the Redskins offense. Grade: A-

143. Baltimore Ravens – Ben Bredeson, OG, Michigan

The Ravens need to replace Marshal Yanda and, while Bredeson isn’t one-for-one, he’s a good player who can help the line. Grade: A

144. Seattle Seahawks – DeeJay Dallas, RB, Miami

I said yesterday that the Seahawks need to outsource their drafting. Dallas is fine but, at No. 144, I stand by that statement. Grade: C-

145. Philadelphia Eagles – Jack Driscoll, OT, Auburn

This makes sense to me. While the Eagles hope Andre Dillard is the tackle of the future, they need depth now and Driscoll should be a solid fill-in piece on the roster. Grade: B+

146. Dallas Cowboys – Tyler Biadasz, IOL, Wisconsin

Dallas trades up to No. 146 and gets a legitimate possible replacement for Frederick. If Biadasz is healthy, he’s a monster. Grade: A

Round 5

147. Cincinnati Bengals – Khalid Kareem, EDGE, Notre Dame

Kareem gives the Bengals nice value and pop off the edge. Grade: A-

148. Seattle Seahawks – Alton Robinson, EDGE, Syracuse

Robinson never realized his potential but has tools and fills a big need. Grade: B+

149. Indianapolis Colts – Danny Pinter, OL, Ball State

A bit of a reach here for Pinter but the Colts keep that position group strong. Grade: C+

150. New York Giants – Shane Lemieux, OG, Oregon

The Giants clearly want to keep their offense moving and Shane Lemieux helps. Grade: B

151. Los Angeles Chargers – Joe Reed, WR, Virginia

Route-running needs work but Reed is a speed weapon for the Bolts. Grade: B+

152. Carolina Panthers – Kenny Robinson, S, West Virginia

By way of the XFL, Robinson has come a long way and should be a nice addition to the Panthers defense. Grade: B

153. San Francisco 49ers – Colton McKivitz, OT, West Virginia

The upside of McKivitz isn’t all that enticing but he can play as a depth role. Grade: B-

154. Miami Dolphins – Jason Strowbridge, DL, North Carolina

Strowbridge is a bit of a tweener but he’s a good player who can help the Dolphins defensive front. Grade: A

155. Chicago Bears – Trevis Gipson, EDGE, Tulsa

Gipson has a ton of explosiveness and, with NFL coaching, could be a weapon. Grade: B

156. Washington Redskins – Keith Ismael, C, San Diego State

Not an immediate need for Washington and Ismael is a hit-or-miss prospect for me. Grade: B-

157. Jacksonville Jaguars – Daniel Thomas, S, Auburn

Obviously Thomas has SEC pedigree and could be another nice piece for the Jaguars. Grade: B

158. New York Jets – Bryce Hall, CB, Virginia

Love the value of Hall here who, prior to his injury, was a top-50 prospect to many. Grade: A

159. New England Patriots – Justin Rohrwasser, K, Marshall

Of course the Patriots took a kicker. Kickers need love too even though I don’t know a thing about Justin Rohrwasser. Grade: A+

160. Cleveland Browns – Nick Harris, OL, Washington

Harris has a ton of value and gives the Browns versatility and depth on the offensive line. Grade: A-

161. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Tyler Johnson, WR, Minnesota

Phenomenal pick here. Johnson should come right into the slot for the Bucs and thrive. Grade: A+

162. Washington Redskins – Khaleke Hudson, LB, Michigan

Hudson has some warts but is experienced and worth a look from Washington. Grade: B-

163. Chicago Bears – Kindle Vildor, CB, Georgia Southern

If Vildor can iron out some technical flaws and add some strength, he can be a gem. Grade: A-

164. Miami Dolphins – Curtis Weaver, EDGE, Boise State

Just another solid addition for Miami in this draft class as Weaver is valuable at this point. Grade: A

165. Jacksonville Jaguars – Collin Johnson, WR, Texas

Johnson is massive but doesn’t offer much else. He diversifies the Jacksonville receiver room though. Grade: B

166. Detroit Lions – Quintez Cephus, WR, Wisconsin

The tape on Cephus is far better than the testing but he has value as depth here. Grade: B

167. Buffalo Bills – Jake Fromm, QB, Georgia

Fromm is the antithesis of Josh Allen but the Bills did need a heady backup. Grade: B

168. Philadelphia Eagles – John Hightower, WR, Boise State

Philly is clearly trying to add speed when they take receivers and do so here. Grade: A-

169. Minnesota Vikings – Harrison Hand, CB, Temple

Continuing to add depth on defense, Hand could develop into a nice role player for the Vikings. Grade: B+

170. Baltimore Ravens – Broderick Washington, DL, Texas Tech

Washington is very one-dimensional and he might be the first Ravens pick I’m not totally a fan of. Grade: C+

171. Houston Texans – Isaiah Coulter, WR, Rhode Island

Coulter is a sleeper in this class and gives the Texans more depth at a position they are clearly reshaping. Grade: B+

172. Detroit Lions – Jason Huntley, RB, New Mexico State

Maybe a reach here, Huntley has some juice and a bit of versatility to play as a pass-catcher, change-of-pace runner or returner. Grade: B-

173. Chicago Bears – Darnell Mooney, WR, Tulane

Chicago adds another fast player that they lost in Taylor Gabriel to try and give the offense a chance. Grade: A-

174. Tennessee Titans – Larrell Murchison, IDL, NC State

Love Murchison next to Jeffery Simmons on the Titans D-line as that duo can create a ton of pressure up front. Grade: A

175. Green Bay Packers – Kamal Martin, LB, Minnesota

Martin brings some necessary depth to the Packers defense at linebacker. Grade: B

176. Minnesota Vikings – K.J. Osborn, WR, Miami

The Vikings have so many Day 3 picks it’s hard to hate any but Osborn was likely an UDFA. Grade: D

177. Kansas City Chiefs – Michael Danna, EDGE, Michigan

Danna is pretty unexciting as a prospect with limited explosiveness. Grade: C+

178. Denver Broncos – Justin Strnad, LB, Wake Forest

If healthy, Strnad could be a valuable linebacker addition to the Broncos defense. Grade: A-

179. Dallas Cowboys – Bradlee Anae, EDGE Utah

Anae at this point is a wonderful addition, giving Dallas a solid player who can rotate in right away. Grade: A

Round 6

180. Cincinnati Bengals – Hakeem Adeniji, OT, Kansas

Adeniji is a developmental player despite his college experience but he could be good depth for Cincinnati. Grade: B+

181. Denver Broncos – Netane Muti, OG, Fresno State

The value here for Denver is too great to pass up. If healthy, Muti is a Pro Bowl caliber guard. Grade: A+

182. New England Patriots – Michael Onwenu, OG, Michigan

Onwenu is a nice guard prospect who should help fortify the D-line. Grade: B

183. New York Giants – Cam Brown, LB, Penn State

Experienced linebacker who can do a lot of things well, Brown helsp the Giants defense right away. Grade: B+

184. Carolina Panthers – Bravvion Roy, DT, Baylor

Roy rejoins Matt Rhule and the big defensive tackle should be able tof ind a role as depth on the line. Grade: B+

185. Miami Dolphins – Blake Ferguson, LS, LSU

LONG. SNAPPER. Grade: Thumbs Up

186. Los Angeles Chargers – Alohi Gilman, S, Notre Dame

Not that the Chargers really need a safety but Gilman is a nice player who can do several things. Grade: B-

187. Cleveland Browns – Donovan Peoples-Jones, WR, Michigan

Peoples-Jones was a top-60 player on my board and he’s an immediate threat in the Browns offense. Grade: A+

188. Buffalo Bills – Tyler Bass, K, Georgia Southern

To be honest, I don’t know much about Bass’ kicking prowess but he could be worht a flier. Grade: C

189. Jacksonville Jaguars – Jake Luton, QB, Oregon State

The Jaguars need a backup for Minshew and Luton is as enticing a late-round prospect as any. Grade: B

190. San Francisco 49ers – Charles Woerner, TE, Georgia

Woerner isn’t my favorite tight end prospect but he does some things well. Moreover, I trust Shanahan. Grade: C+

191. New York Jets – Braden Mann, P, Texas A&M

The Jets special teams actually needed some work so I don’t completely hate this. Grade: B

192. Green Bay Packers – Jon Runyan, OL, Michigan

O-line depth is key for the Packers and Runyan is unspectacular but solid. Grade: A-

193. Indianapolis Colts – Robert Windsor, DT, Penn State

Windsor is another good depth addition at this point of the draft. Grade: B

194. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Khalil Davis, IDL, Nebraska

Man, the Bucs are slaying the offseason, getting the uber-athletic Davis and trying to make it work. Grade: A+

195. New England Patriots – Justin Herron, OL, Wake Forest

O-line depth is valuable in New England and Herron has a shot to develop into something nicely. Grade: B

196. Philadelphia Eagles – Shaun Bradley, LB, Temple

Bradley is small for the position but has good burst and feel for the game. Grade: B-

197. Detroit Lions – John Penisini, DT, Utah

This feels like a Matt Patricia pick right here as Penisini is a beefy man. Grade: C+

198. Pittsburgh Steelers – Antoine Brooks Jr., S, Maryland

Brooks can do some nice things on the back end, even if he isn’t the most versatile. Grade: B

199. Los Angeles Rams – Jordan Fuller, S, Ohio State

Fuller’s tape shows he’s not a great athlete but he made plays for the Buckeyes. Grade: B-

200. Philadelphia Eagles – Quez Watkins, WR, Southern Miss

A nice wide receiver, the Eagles are throwing as many darts at the board with speed guys as they can. Grade: B

201. Baltimore Ravens – James Proche, WR, SMU

Proche should’ve been off the board roughly 60 picks ago. The Ravens get a possible stud addition to their offense. Grade: A+

202. Arizona Cardinals – Evan Weaver, LB, California

Weaver may not offer too much in coverage but he’s a very nice run defender. Grade: B

203. Minnesota Vikings – Blake Brandel, OG, Oregon State

More O-line depth as the Vikings take shots at the dart board is something I’ll never hate. Grade: B-

204. New England Patriots – Cassh Maluia, LB, Wyoming

This feels like a special teams pick for the Pats as Maluia doesn’t have film to sugges he’s an NFL linebacker right now. Grade: C

205. Minnesota Vikings – Josh Metellus, S, Michigan

Nice value here as Metellus could find a role on an NFL defense and on special teams. Grade: B

206. Jacksonville Jaguars – Tyler Davis, TE, Georgia Tech

Solid athleticism with little production, Davis is a flier with some upside. Grade: C+

207. Buffalo Bills – Isaiah Hodgins, WR, Oregon State

Hodgins is a great big-bodied wideout to pair with Josh Allen at this point in the draft. Grade: A-

208. Green Bay Packers – Jake Hanson, IOL, Oregon

A longtime starter at Oregon, Hanson should be able to provide serviceable depth. Grade: B

209. Green Bay Packers – Simon Stepaniak, OT, Indiana

Decent player who, again gives the Packers a shot at more O-line depth. Grade: C+

210. Philadelphia Eagles – Prince Tega Wanogho, OT, Auburn

Tega Wanogho’s injuries clearly have teams shook but, when healthy, he has really nice upside. Grade: B

211. Indianapolis Colts – Isaiah Rodgers, CB, UMass

Small for sure, Rodgers has nicel potential and can help as a returner. Grade: C+

212. Indianapolis Colts – Dezmon Patmon, WR, Washington State

Patmon is a big body with shocking athleticism but needs to show it and more strength on the field. Grade: B+

213. Indianapolis Colts – Jordan Glasgow, S, Michigan

Secondary depth is never a bad thing, especially when still filling out depth and special teams. Grade: B-

214. Seattle Seahawks – Freddie Swain, WR, Florida

With the right coaching, the toolbox is there for Swain to be an effective NFL receiver. Grade: B

Round 7

215. Cincinnati Bengals – Markus Bailey, LB, Purdue

If Bailey is healthy and can stay that way, this is a phenomenal addition for the Bengals. Grade: A

216. Washington Redskins – Kamren Curl, DB, Arkansas

Curl brings a ton of versatility to the table and he should help the Redskins there. Grade: B

217. San Francisco 49ers  – Jajuan Jennings, WR, Tennessee

Jennings is not a good athlete but his route-running and hands are impressive. Grade: B-

218. New York Giants – Carter Coughlin, EDGE, Minnesota

In all likelihood, Coughlin is too slight for an every-down player. But his situational talent is impressive as a pass-rusher. Grade: A

219. Baltimore Ravens – Geno Stone, S, Iowa

Smart and athletic enough, Stone should be a nice player in this secondary as depth. Grade: B+

220. Los Angeles Chargers – K.J. Hill, WR, Ohio State

Productive in college and a great route-runner already, Hill could learn behind Keenan Allen. Grade: B+

221. Carolina Panthers – Stanley Thomas-Oliver III, CB, FIU

Converted wide receiver, the FIU product has some intriguing potential for Carolina. Grade: A-

222. Arizona Cardinals – Eno Benjamin, RB, Arizona State

Benjamin has a ton of juice and is great value as he stays in state for the Cards. Grade: A

223. Jacksonville Jaguars – Chris Claybrooks, CB, Memphis

Unbelievably raw reciever-to-corner convert, Claybrooks’ NFL projection is wherever his athleticism is best utilized. Grade: C

224. Tennessee Titans – Cole McDonald, QB, Hawai’i

McDonald is raw but he’s athletic and has a ton of arm talent. He’s a high-upside backup. Also, he should grow his dreadlocks back out, obviously. Grade: A+

225. Minnesota Vikings – Kenny Willekes, EDGE, Michigan State

Willekes isn’t exceptional in any measurable but was effective and productive in college. That’ll be his game in the NFL too. Grade: A

226. Chicago Bears – Arlington Hambright, OL, Colorado

Coupled with the next pick for the Bears, it’s clear that Chicago is taking fliers at developmental offensive linemen. Grade: C+

227. Chicago Bears – Lachavious Simmons, OL, Tennessee State

See above. Grade: C+

228. Atlanta Falcons – Sterling Hofrichter, P, Syracuse

Big leg on a small man, Hofrichter could be a nice special teams weapon. But then again, it’s a punter. Grade: C+

229. Washington Redskins – James Smith-Williams, EDGE, NC State

Smith-Williams tested like a crazy athlete at the NFL Combine. He’s worth a shot at developing. Grade: A-

230. New England Patriots – Dustin Woodard, C, Memphis

Part of a great line in college, Woodard is worth developing. Grade: B

231. Dallas Cowboys – Ben DiNucci, QB, James Madison

DiNucci transferred from Pitt and was highly productive at JMU. Worth a shot at quarterback. Grade: B

232. Pittsburgh Steelers – Carlos Davis, DT, Nebraksa

Davis is not quite as athletic as brother Khalil but is still a crazy athlete in his own right. Grade: A-

233. Philadelphia Eagles – Casey Toohill, EDGE, Stanford

Flashy pass-rusher but poor run defender at his size, he could be a move piece for the Eagles. Grade: B-

234. Los Angeles Rams – Clay Johnston, LB, Baylor

Johnston doesn’t have the overall size or athleticism to be a starter but as depth and a special teamer, he’s solid. Grade: B

235. Detroit Lions – Jashon Cornell, DT, Ohio State

A former Buckeye, there’s obviously some traits. But he’s No. 235 for a reason. Grade: B-

236. Green Bay Packers – Vernon Scott, S, TCU

Packers needed some depth at defensive back and get some here. Grade: C+

237. Kansas City Chiefs – BoPete Keyes, CB, Tulane

Not a speedy guy but one with length and IQ, Keyes could be nice value for the champs. Grade: B+

238. New York Giants – T.J. Brunson, LB, South Carolina

Brunson can definitely make some plays as a special teamer while giving depth at linebacker. Grade: C+

239. Buffalo Bills – Dane Jackson, CB, Pittsburgh

While small, Jackson is a good player who is great value at the end of the seventh round. Grade: A

240. New Orleans Saints – Tommy Stevens, QB, Mississippi State

Stevens didn’t look like a draftable player to me but the Saints take a shot here. Grade: C

241. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Chapelle Russell, LB, Temple

Two torn ACLs is rough for Russell but he’s a tough player with plenty of talent. Grade: B-

242. Green Bay Packers – Jonathan Garvin, EDGE, Florida

Garvin could’ve gone in the fourth round for me. Great depth pickup for Green Bay. Grade: A

243. Tennessee Titans – Chris Jackson, DB, Marshall

Defensive back depth is never a bad thing. Grade: B-

244. Minnesota Vikings – Nate Stanley, QB, Iowa

Some have been enamored with Stanley’s tools. That doesn’t include me but I get the flier here for the Vikings. Grade: B

245. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Raymond Calais, RB, Louisiana

Calais isn’t the most versatile back but he has home run speed and can be another weapon. Grade: A-

246. Miami Dolphins – Malcolm Perry, WR, Navy

Perry broke one record after another at Navy and could be some type of weapon. Grade: B

247. New York Giants – Chris Williamson, CB, Minnesota

Not partciularly adept in coverage, Williamson looks like a special teams contributor for Big Blue. Grade: C+

248. Los Angeles Rams – Samuel Sloman, K, Miami (Ohio)

Lost Greg Zuerlein, time for a kicking competition. Grade: B

249. Minnesota Vikings – Brian Cole II, S, Mississippi State

All of Day 3 has felt like the Vikings just taking fliers on defensive players. Grade: B-

250. Los Angeles Rams – Tremayne Anchrum, OL, Clemson

Anchrum has experience and versatility and could help the Rams right away potentially. Grade: A-

251. Seattle Sehawks – Stephen Sullivan, TE, LSU

Sullivan has a lot of tools but wasn’t developed much. Could be nice if the Seahawks coach him up. Grade: B

252. Denver Broncos – Tyrie Cleveland, WR, Florida

Why not add another deep threat to the mix for Drew Lock? Grade: B

253. Minnesota Vikings – Kyle Hinton, OG, Washburn

All tools, little polish, Hinton is a worthwhile project for the Vikings. Grade: B-

254. Denver Broncos – Derek Tuszka, EDGE, N Dakota State

Tuszka is a legit sleeper who could see the field soon with NFL coaching. Grade: A

255. New York Giants – Tae Crowder, LB, Georgia

Mr. Irrelevant has some range and tackling ability but should be a special teamer. Grade: B-

We’ll see who the late-round gems mined on Day 3 of the 2020 NFL Draft ultimately end up being down the line. But for now, these are the grades and analysis of every pick — and I’m sticking to it.
