2020 NFL mock draft: 3-round projections after Wild Card weekend
Luke Easterling updates his three-round projections for the 2020 NFL draft following a crazy Wild Card playoff round

After a hugely disappointing season, the Browns need to start their bounce-back by rebuilding the offensive line in front of Baker Mayfield. Thomas would be a fantastic first step in that direction, giving Mayfield an immediate upgrade at either tackle spot.

6. Los Angeles Chargers
Justin Herbert | QB | Oregon
The Philip Rivers era is limping to a halt, so it’s time for the Bolts to find a successor for the future Hall of Famer. Herbert went back to school to polish his skill set, and while he’s still somewhat inconsistent, he’s got more than enough tools to work with, and he should end up being a top-10 pick.
7. Carolina Panthers
Derrick Brown | DL | Auburn
There are needs at every level of this defense, to the Panthers just need to find the best value here. With Okudah off the board, they look to the trenches to rebuild what was once one of the league’s most feared defensive fronts. Browns is as dominant as they come in this year’s class, and a rare athlete for his size.
8. Arizona Cardinals
CeeDee Lamb | WR | Oklahoma
This may come as a surprise to some, but even with Jerry Jeudy still on the board, I’m betting Kyler Murry would be able to convince Kliff Kingsbury to make his college teammate the first receiver off the board. Lamb is a complete player who would make an immediate impact.
9. Jacksonville Jaguars
Jerry Jeudy | WR | Alabama
This is a fantastic scenario for the Jags, who desperately need a dynamic pass-catcher like Jeudy, and are still able to land him as the second receiver off the board. Jeudy’s explosiveness and precise route-running ability will make him a big-play machine at the next level.
