Without a first- and third-round pick but acquiring a second from the Khalil Mack trade, the Bears turned out to have a pretty good class in the end. With said second-round pick, the Bears selected the first tight end off the board in Cole Kmet. After a slow start and low stats his first two … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #11 Chicago Bears

2020 Draft Class Review: #12 Carolina Panthers
The Panthers, coming off a 5-11 season, selected all defensive players in their class, and came out with a couple studs. Derrick Brown was selected with the seventh overall pick and has been the advertised monster in the middle of a defensive line. An every game starter, Brown has been getting better and better every … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #12 Carolina Panthers
2020 Draft Class Review: #13 Minnesota Vikings
The largest class of 2020 was a pretty good one. Trades are a big part of this class, including a notable first-round pick acquisition, a trade back in the same round to get two more picks, a trade of a third-round pick to get four more picks, among others. The star of the class is … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #13 Minnesota Vikings
2020 Draft Class Review: #14 Buffalo Bills
In probably the most balanced trade of all time, the Bills traded their first-round pick to the Vikings for star receiver Stefon Diggs, who's gone on to have four straight 1,000+ yard seasons, including being the league's top receiver in 2020. With their first pick of the draft, the Bills got some much needed pass … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #14 Buffalo Bills
2020 Draft Class Review: #15 New England Patriots
A very classic Belichick-Patriots draft. Traded out of the first round with the Chargers and selected a no-name defensive back in the second round, but for the first time it actually worked out. Kyle Dugger out of Division II Lenoir-Rhyne shined at the combine and Senior Bowl, and when he was selected, every Patriots fan … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #15 New England Patriots
2020 Draft Class Review: #16 San Francisco 49ers
While this class only has five players, the picks that weren't used were for good players, and the picks they did have got a superstar and some good depth players. After the trade of DeForest Buckner to the Colts and acquiring a first-round pick, the 49ers traded back one spot and acquired a fourth-rounder to … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #16 San Francisco 49ers
2020 Draft Class Review: #17 Green Bay Packers
If you were to rank this draft class a year ago, this would be towards the very bottom. But after sitting for three years behind Aaron Rodgers, Jordan Love got his opportunity and just got better with every game. The quarterback continuity in Green Bay is going to live on with Love at the helm … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #17 Green Bay Packers
2020 Draft Class Review: #18 Seattle Seahawks
A very typical Seahawks draft with a bunch of guys no one viewed highly, but they turned into solid players. Jordyn Brooks wasn't viewed as a round one prospect but was thrust into the starting lineup early and turned into an above average starter. He led the league in solo tackles in 2021, and has … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #18 Seattle Seahawks
2020 Draft Class Review: #19 Washington Redskins/Football Team/Commanders
With the second pick of the draft, the then Washington Redskins selected one of the best defensive prospects of the decade in pass rusher Chase Young. He lived up to the billing as a rookie, recording 7.5 sacks and was named Defensive Rookie of the Year. The next season, after recording only 1.5 sacks in … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #19 Washington Redskins/Football Team/Commanders
2020 Draft Class Review: #20 Philadelphia Eagles
This was by far the toughest class to evaluate. The Eagles got their franchise quarterback in the second round, but everywhere else was just so bad. The selection of Jalen Hurts at the time was a puzzling one as Carson Wentz had signed a massive contract extension the previous offseason and led them to the … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #20 Philadelphia Eagles
