2020 NFL Mock Draft: The Virtual, Fantasy Football-Like Draft


Published by Daniel Lewis on April 15, 2020

The 2020 NFL Draft will be like none other due to the coronavirus pandemic, with the proceedings expected to take place entirely in a virtual format.  As such, all general managers will be tasked with not only focusing on selecting their targeted players, but also, in the case of Giants GM Dave Gettleman, learning how to use a computer.  Fortunately, at least Texans GM Bill O’Brien and Rams GM Les Snead will not have to log in to the draft until Day 2 as a small reward for their short-sighted trades within the past year.

Below are team-by-team predictions for the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft:

1. Cincinnati Bengals: Joe Burrow, QB, LSU
