Cleveland Browns 2020 mock draft: Post Kevin Stefanski hire edition
By Mike Graham
Picks 16-20
16. Atlanta-A.J. Epenesa-DE-Iowa-Epenesa was a force in 2019 with 11.5 sacks and 4 forced fumbles, he also fits the Falcons who need a bigger defensive end, need and value align for Atlanta here who sorely need a pass rusher.
17. Dallas-Grant Delpit-S-LSU-Delpit is someone to watch in this draft cycle, he seemingly underachieved this season at LSU, and still won the Thorpe award. Dallas can’t go into next season with Jeff Heath as a starting safety. He was a force in 2018 with five picks, and five sacks, and was widely considered a top 10 pick before the season.
18. Miami (From Steelers)-Henry Ruggs-WR-Alabama-Dolphins need weapons, and Ruggs like his Alabama counterpart can take a simple pass and go to the house. It helps that he is now teamed up with his college QB. He may break the combine 40 records and his play backs up the hype that is coming. He had 40 catches for 746 yards and 7 TDs in 2019.
19. Las Vegas Raiders (From Bears)-Laviska Shenault-WR-Colorado-Shenault is a swiss army knife, and if properly used, can be a force. He scored 17 touchdowns either through the air or on the ground the last two years for the Buffaloes. He may be this year’s Percy Harvin or a Parris Campbell who can get touches in a variety of ways and hurt you.
20. Jacksonville (from Rams)-Javon Kinlaw-DT-South Carolina-Kinlaw falls a little here to the Jags, who have a decent need on the inside of their defensive line. The clock is running on Taven Bryan‘s time in Jacksonville, and an upgrade is needed. Kinlaw had his best season in 2019 with 35 tackles and 6 sacks, he has been a consistent force on the inside for the Gamecocks.
