26. Kansas City Chiefs
Jonathan Taylor | RB | Wisconsin
There are bigger needs on defense, but the Chiefs have the opportunity to take the best running back in a deep class. Taylor is a complete player who would give Patrick Mahomes yet another dynamic weapon, helping balance one of the league’s most explosive offenses.
27. Seattle Seahawks
K’Lavon Chaisson | EDGE | LSU
It’s still not a sure thing that Jadeveon Clowney will return to Seattle next season, so the Seahawks could be in the market for an explosive, athletic edge rusher to replace him. Chaisson’s combination of physical tools, intelligence and technique should make him a first-round pick.
28. Green Bay Packers
Dylan Moses | LB | Alabama
This defense desperately needs a difference-maker at linebacker who can make plays all over the field. A top-10 prospect before a knee injury stole his entire 2019 season, Moses would be a huge steal here once he’s back to full strength.
29. New England Patriots
Raekwon Davis | DL | Alabama
The Pats do their best drafting when they let the board fall to them, prioritizing value over need. That’s what happens here, as they grab one of the biggest, most versatile defensive linemen in this year’s class. Davis is still barely scratching the surface of his lofty potential.
30. New Orleans Saints
Jalen Hurts | QB | Oklahoma
Who knows if Drew Brees or Teddy Bridgewater will be back in 2020, so the Saints need to start thinking about a new quarterback. Even if Brees returns for a swan song next season, Hurts would be the perfect understudy to the future Hall of Famer.
31. San Francisco 49ers
Paulson Adebo | CB | Stanford
Richard Sherman has proven he’s still one of the NFL’s best corners, but it would be wise to find an understudy in this draft. Why not go back to Sherman’s alma mater for Adebo, an athletic cover man with the smarts and technique to quickly develop into a difference-maker.
