player. 59. . Edge. Miami Dolphins. Yetur Gross-Matos. 25

The Miami Dolphins hold the Houston Texans first round draft pick in 2020, this after trading away Laremy Tunsil to the Texans during the regular season. While the team could certainly add an offensive lineman with this pick, they may want to just continue to stack the best players available, and Yetur Gross-Matos from Penn State would be a perfect addition to this defensive line.

When it comes to edge rushers in this draft class, Gross-Matos is considered elite, and he has already declared for the 2020 NFL Draft. The Dolphins defense has played with a lot of pride under first-year head coach Brian Flores, and adding Gross-Matos and Javon Kinlaw in the first round next April would give them more building blocks around Christian Wilkins up front.

Miami has a great opportunity to really change the culture in South Beach, and they certainly appear to have the right guy steering the ship. If the Dolphins can hit on their three first round picks in 2020, there is no reason why they cannot improve year-over-year like  the Oakland Raiders did in 2019.

Kansas City Chiefs. Dylan Moses. 26. player. 124. . Linebacker

The Kansas City Chiefs are once again a team to beat in the AFC this season, and they have a chance to lock up the No. 3 overall seed in the AFC this weekend. The Chiefs have all the talent they need on the offensive side of the ball to win a Super Bowl, but this defense once again has some major holes.

Last season, the Chiefs struggled mightily against the pass, but they have been much better in that area in 2019. Against the run has been a different story, and with their first round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, they should look to bring in one of the better inside linebackers in this draft class.

Although Dylan Moses missed the entire 2019 season due to a torn ACL, he is still slated for the first round, and would be an excellent addition to this Chiefs defense. He is one of the better linebackers in this draft class against the run, and area of need for this Chiefs defense, as they continue to build up this roster around their elite franchise quarterback in Patrick Mahomes.
