NFL Mock Draft includes big trade up by Chargers

Previewing the 2020 NFL Mock Draft includes big trade up in the first round by the Los Angeles Chargers

11. New York Jets: OT Andrew Thomas, Georgia

The fourth offensive tackle off the board is Andrew Thomas, who protected Jake Fromm’s blindside at Georgia. Thomas would fill the Jets’ biggest need and would be a value at No. 11.

12. Las Vegas Raiders: WR CeeDee Lamb, Oklahoma

The Raiders need a No. 1 receiver, and they have to be delighted to see both CeeDee Lamb and Jerry Jeudy still available at pick No. 12. Mike Mayock goes with the bigger target as he would be a perfect fit in Jon Gruden’s West Coast offense.

13. Indianapolis Colts: IDL Derrick Brown, Auburn

The Colts continue to invest in the trenches as Derrick Brown, an arguably top-five player in this class, falls to them at No. 13. This is a dream pick for a defense that needs a star in the middle of their defense.

14. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: IDL Javon Kinlaw, South Carolina

After drafting Vita Vea in the first round in 2018, the Buccaneers grab an interior rusher who can play off Vea’s strength. Kinlaw might still be a year away from contributing, but he has Kansas City Chiefs DE Chris Jones’ potential if everything works out.

15. Denver Broncos: WR Jerry Jeudy, Alabama

The Broncos need to add a weapon opposite of Courtland Sutton, and Jerry Jeudy falling to No. 15 would be a dream selection. He can win from the slot or outside with quickness and route running. Jeudy is one of the most NFL-ready receivers in this class and would be a star in Denver’s offense.
