Based on the article we did earlier this year that covered team-by-team results for the 2017 NFL Draft using our prospect rankings, I figured now—when nothing is going on—was a good time to do it for 2020. It should take about three years to evaluate a draft class, so it will be interesting to look back when we get a much better idea of the class. Today will be the AFC, followed by the NFC to close out the week.

 

And just to note, the picks were based on best player available and common sense (ex: I wouldn’t draft Jonathan Taylor in the second round for a team like the Bengals because they already have Joe Mixon) with scheme fit and need as smaller factors, so there wasn’t any cheating the board. Also, I obviously didn’t have the ability to trade up/down or interview prospects.
