53. . Wide Receiver. Cleveland Browns. DeVonta Smith. 13. player

The Cleveland Browns knew they needed to get better up front along the offensive line in the 2020 NFL Draft, and they got an absolute mauler in Alabama offensive tackle Jedrick Wills Jr. With their offensive line solidified, there are no more excuses for quarterback Baker Mayfield, who had a rough second season in the NFL last season.

In 2021, I like the Browns to dip into this deep wide receiver pool, adding a talented playmaker like DeVonta Smith from Alabama. The Crimson Tide will have two wideouts go in the first round next year, and adding a talent like Smith to a wideout group that already has Odell Beckham Jr. will make this Browns offense that much scarier.

Walker Little. 14. player. 13. . Offensive Tackle. Los Angeles Chargers

The Los Angeles Chargers knew they needed a new franchise quarterback heading into 2020, as they let veteran, and future Hall of Famer Philip Rivers walk in free agency this offseason. With pick No. 6 overall, the Chargers brought in Justin Herbert, who will be the perfect guy to lead this team into their next era of football.

At pick No. 14 in this mock draft, the Chargers add the guy who will protect Herbert’s blindside for the next ten season sin Walker Little from Stanford. This is a guy who could have been a first round talent in a very deep 2020 draft class, and with the Chargers appearing loaded on both sides of the ball, this is one area where they could stand to upgrade.
