Sure First Round Picks
Chase Young – Defensive End
Young might be the most talented football player in the draft. He is a game-wrecker that demands a lot of attention unless you want him in your backfield all day. He set the single-season Ohio State record for sacks and someone’s going to be very happy to pick him up. He is unlikely to go as the top pick because the Cincinnati Bengals need themselves a QB. He’ll go quickly thereafter.
Projected: First round, top three — likely No. 2 overall to the Washington Redskins
Jeff Okudah – Cornerback
Okudah is widely considered to be the best defensive back in the 2020 draft and he’ll go extremely early. He is rangy, long, athletic and fast, and has all the makings of a No. 1 lockdown corner at the next level. The stats don’t jump out at you because hardly anyone threw his direction. He’s a good one though. Unless there’s movement at the top, he’s likely off the board very, very early.
Projected: First round, top ten — could go No. 3 overall to the Detroit Lions or shortly after. Carolina has also been talked about at No. 7.
