The Browns have selected Florida Atlantic tight end Harrison Bryant with the No. 115 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Bryant was a first-team All-American last season after caching 65 passes for 1,004 yards and seven touchdowns in Lane Kiffin’s offense, and he could immediately have a role for a Cleveland squad that wants to use multiple tight ends. This pick could mean David Njoku will be on the move with Austin Hooper locked in as the starter, but Bryant may have more of an H-back role to start his career.

The Chargers have selected UCLA running back Joshua Kelley with the No. 112 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Kelley is a smooth, all-around runner with great feel for the position, and this looks like an excellent value for Los Angeles. Austin Ekeler will of course be the lead back, but Kelley has a legitimate shot to basically take a chunk of the work left behind from Melvin Gordon, so he’s immediately on the redraft radar and a potential bargain in dynasty leagues compared to some of the runners drafted on Day 2. Our full scouting report for the UCLA product can be read in the link below.

The Saints have selected Dayton tight end Adam Trautman with the No. 105 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

The Saints gave up a handful of picks to move back into the third round to select Trautman, who will complement Jared Cook and eventually look to take over the top tight end role in Sean Payton’s offense. Our full scouting report on Trautman can be read in the link below. As a rookie, Trautman will likely need to rack up some red-zone scores to deliver fantasy value in redraft leagues.

The Patriots have selected Virginia Tech tight end Dalton Keene with the No. 101 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Keane is more of a physical tight end compared to vertical seam-stretcher Devin Asiasi that New England also drafted in the third round. Bill Belichick seems to be clearly be building around Jarrett Stidham at this point, and the weapons (N’Keal Harry being the other notable youngster) should be able to grow together. The landing spot for Keane makes him squarely in play as a quality option in dynasty leagues, but significant redraft value is unlikely in 2020.

The Packers have selected Cincinnati tight end Josiah Deguara with the No. 94 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Deguara will bring a more physical presence at tight end compared to last year’s third-rounder Jace Sternberger, but it’s clear the Packers want to be a more run-heavy football team in 2020—which could be a decision slightly impacted by how their season ended against San Francisco. Dynasty owners can probably target some higher upside receiving options for now, but Deguara has the talent to eventually develop into a difference-maker if you want to stash him.

The Titans have selected Appalachian State running back Darrynton Evans with the No. 93 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Tennessee is adding a dynamic runner to help complement reigning league-leading rusher Derrick Henry, and Evans will look to win the clear No. 2 running back role for the Titans this season. Evans will add more speed to an explosive offense that already has Henry and A.J. Brown among its big playmakers.

The Ravens have selected Texas wide receiver Devin Duvernay with the No. 92 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Duvernay is a tough, fast slot receiver with very reliable hands, so reigning league MVP Lamar Jackson should quickly take a liking to the Texas product. Last season, Duvernay broke out with 106 receptions for 1,386 yards and nine touchdowns, so we’ll see if he is able to earn a starting role out of the gate and become an immediate fantasy factor. Those in full PPR leagues should probably be more eager to roster the rookie, though his upside could be somewhat limited in Baltimore’s run-heavy offense.
