NFL Draft 2020: 3 best prospects available after Round 1
The 2020 NFL Draft left us with some expected picks, some shock, and left us with even more questions after round one. Who is the next best available?
One of the biggest surprises of the NFL draft in round one that we had was Green Bay trading up and taking Jordan Love. No one is positive why the Packers decided to trade up before the Seahawks, Ravens and Dolphins. All of which have a franchise quarterback or drafted one in 2020.
Other than the big surprise of Green Bay choosing a quarterback in the first round, there were a lot of expected results.
Joe Burrow came into the draft the consensus No. 1 overall pick and the Bengals made it official on Thursday night. The mock drafts nailed the first three for the most part after Chase Young and Jeff Okudah went thereafter to the Redskins and the Lions, respectively. A rash of wide receivers starting with Henry Ruggs III went in the middle of the first round, rounding it out with Justin Jefferson going to the Vikings at No. 22.
Now we look to the second and third rounds for Friday evening. There is still a ton of talent on the board with teams looking to fill big-time needs at multiple positions. The Bengals, Colts and Lions have the first three picks in the second round and anything could happen.
The Bengals need help on both sides of the ball, the Colts have to shore up some offensive woes and the Lions could also go both ways.
Here are the top three available players after the first round.
