2020 NFL Draft: Clint Lamb’s mock draft 3.0, picks 1-16

Alabama is expected to see several of its former players hear their names called during the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft.

The 2020 NFL Draft is less than a month away, which means it’s time for another mock draft to keep the offseason busy. This is the third edition of my mock (picks 1-16), with the first being available here.

The Alabama Crimson Tide is expected to see several of its former players hear their names called during the first round, including four in the first half of this mock.

Note: The is only the first half (pick No. 1-16) of Clint Lamb’s 3.0 mock draft. The second part will be released later this week.

Previous pick: Joe Burrow, QB, LSU

Analysis: Until something drastic happens, LSU quarterback Joe Burrow will continue to be mocked No. 1 to the Bengals. He’s never had an issue with his health, he’s from the Ohio area and he had a phenomenal senior season.

There’s no reason to believe he won’t be the first player taken come April.
