2020 NFL mock draft: Bengals land Justin Herbert
By Brad Weiss
The Seattle Seahawks, like the San Francisco 49ers, have gotten off to a 2-0 start in 2019, and are firmly in place to make a run at the NFC West division title. This is a division that has three teams who have gotten off to fast starts, as the Los Angeles Rams also join the 49ers and Seahawks in starting off undefeated.
Seattle has the luxury of having Russell Wilson under center, a player who makes everyone around him, even on the other side of the ball better. This is a Seahawks team that are still building after losing all of their Legion of Boom defense, but they could look to target a talented cornerback in the first round in 2020.
Not saying that Paulson Adebo could step in and be the next Richard Sherman in Seattle, but he certainly has the skill set to be a standout corner at the next level. Tre Flowers and Shaquill Griffin are two very good cornerbacks, and Adebo could come in and not only learn from them, but be a solid No. 3 in Year No. 1.
The Baltimore Ravens have gotten out to a fast start to the 2019 NFL season, and it is mostly due to a quarterback who many wanted to say was a running back coming out of Louisville. Lamar Jackson is not only incredible with his legs, but he is showing off a rocket of a right arm, and has his Ravens in first place in the AFC North early on.
Jackson is putting up video game numbers for the Ravens, and he is only making everybody else around him better. While the combination of Gus Edwards and Mark Ingram are a nice tandem in 2019, the Ravens could use their first round pick in 2020 on who could be the only running back taken within the first 32.
Jonathan Taylor has been a dynamic running back for years at Wisconsin, and could have an incredible impact on an already explosive Ravens offense in Year 1. Taylor is not only adept at making people miss, but he loves to run over people as well, a key attribute of the kind of running back John Harbaugh likes to deploy.
