2020 NFL mock draft: Jalen Hurts lands with Titans
By Brad Weiss
25. player. 59. . Wide Receiver. Miami Dolphins. Tyler Johnson
With their third and final selection in the 2020 NFL Draft’s first round, the Miami Dolphins continue to stay on the offensive side of the ball. After drafting their franchise quarterback and left tackle early in round one, the Dolphins will pick late as well, thanks to the Laremy Tunsil trade with the Houston Texans, and should look to bring in a top wide receiver.
If the Dolphins are going to give Tua Tagovailoa the tools to success, a wide receiver like Tyler Johnson would be a perfect fit in Miami. Johnson is an absolute freak when it comes to his pass-catching abilities, and is a perfect blend of speed to go along with his great route-running. He is going to have an impact as a rookie.
Of course, the Dolphins head coach is a former defensive coach for the New England Patriots, so he may want to start adding to his defense next April in the first round. However, the team also has two first round picks in 2021, so the main thing this team wants to do over the next two drafts is start stacking talent, as they look to rebuild the culture in South Beach.
Buffalo Bills. Jalen Reagor. 26. player. 16. . Wide Receiver
The Buffalo Bills have gotten out to a 4-1 start this season, with their only loss coming in a close one to division rival New England. For the Bills, they have been getting it done on both sides of the ball, as they look like they have one of the better defenses in football, and second-year quarterback Josh Allen is continuing in his development on offense.
On Monday night, the Bills decided to trade away wide receiver Zay Jones to the Oakland Raiders, a move that netted them a fifth round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. For now, it looks like Duke Williams will take over as the No. 1 wideout in Buffalo, but this team needs to give Allen a few more weapons than that.
Looking at this 2020 NFL Draft class, one of the stronger positions is at wide receiver, so it would make sense for the Bills to add one at No. 26 overall. Jalen Reagor is a guy who can take the lid off the defense, and as Allen continues to develop in terms of his accuracy, surrounding him with as much talent at the position is only going to help him, as the Bills are rounding into a complete football team.
