21. Philadelphia Eagles
Denzel Mims | WR | Baylor
After filling their biggest need on defense by trading for Darius Slay, the Eagles free themselves up to do the same for their offense with this pick. Mims backed up his strong film by blowing up the NFL Scouting Combine, showing off the size and athleticism it takes to be a top target at the next level.
22. Minnesota Vikings (from BUF)
Jalen Reagor | WR | TCU
In trading away Stefon Diggs, the Vikings lost a polished route-runner and explosive playmaker from their passing game. It only makes sense for them to use one of their first-round picks to fill that void with a similar player, and Reagor has the skill set to be the perfect fit.
23. New England Patriots
Jordan Love | QB | Utah State
As hard as it may be to believe, the Tom Brady era if officially over in New England. The Pats are still high on Jarrett Stidham, but his upside is nowhere near what Love brings to the table. He’s still plenty raw, but Love has all the physical and mental tools to quickly rise to the top of this depth chart and take command of the next generation for the Pats.
24. New Orleans Saints
Trevon Diggs | CB | Alabama
Marshon Lattimore is still one of the league’s top corners, but the Saints could use an upgrade on the other side of the field. Diggs has the size, length, athleticism and ball skills to quickly develop into a valuable playmaker at the next level, making it difficult for opposing quarterbacks to choose which side of the field they want to challenge.
25. Minnesota Vikings
Xavier McKinney | S | Alabama
There are bigger needs on both sides of the ball for Minnesota, but the value just isn’t there at corner or offensive tackle. Instead, they opt for the best safety in this year’s class, grabbing a smart, athletic and punishing defender in McKinney. The Vikings would have one of the league’s most talented safety groups if this is the pick.
