The best draft class of 2020 belongs to the Baltimore Ravens. One of the best-run franchises developed this class into several defensive starters and Pro Bowlers. Patrick Queen had a rough first two seasons in the NFL, but started putting it together in 2022, and the arrival of All-Pro Roquan Smith turned Queen into a … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #1 Baltimore Ravens

2020 Draft Class Review: #2 Cincinnati Bengals
The second-best draft class of 2020 got a franchise quarterback, a good receiver, and a starting linebacker. I also love this class as the Bengals had seven picks, one in each round, no compensatory picks, all their original picks, no trades, and all are the first of each round. Quite satisfying. Joe Burrow was the … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #2 Cincinnati Bengals

2020 Draft Class Review: #5 Indianapolis Colts
Entering the top 5 classes of 2020 is the Indianapolis Colts, who despite not having a day one pick, had the best day two.

The former top 10 pick has been nothing short of a star as one of the … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #5 Indianapolis Colts
2020 Draft Class Review: #6 Cleveland Browns
At #6 is the Cleveland Browns with a very well-rounded draft. After hall-of-famer Joe Thomas retired in 2018, it's been a revolving door at left tackle, with the likes of Spencer Drango, Desmond Harrison and Greg Robinson starting games for two seasons, the Browns finally found their hopeful long-term left tackle in Jedrick Wills. The … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #6 Cleveland Browns
2020 Draft Class Review: #7 Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The #7 draft class of 2020 features two players at the top of their respective positions. Entering this draft, there was a "Big Four" of offensive tackles and the Bucs came out with the fourth one, but the best one. Tristan Wirfs has been the model of dominant consistency. After starting his first three seasons … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #7 Tampa Bay Buccaneers

2020 Draft Class Review: #9 New York Giants
Cracking in at #9 is the New York Giants...who would've thought. After a very bad rookie season where he finished 59th/79 in PFF rankings, Andrew Thomas has only gotten better, finishing in the top 20 the last three seasons, including 3rd in 2022 with a 90.3 grade. Last offseason, Thomas signed a massive five-year, $117.5 … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #9 New York Giants
2020 Draft Class Review: #10 Los Angeles Chargers
The #10 draft class of 2020 isn't a big one, but it produced one of the league's biggest stars which overtakes the lack of picks and remaining class. Justin Herbert is a top 5 quarterback...when everything is going right. His arm talent is off the charts, but poor coaching and roster building, plus injuries, have … Continue reading 2020 Draft Class Review: #10 Los Angeles Chargers
