The regular season has come to an end, which means a majority of the first round 2020 NFL Draft order is set. NFL Draft projections will start to become more consistent over the next four months. The early declaration deadline in late January will solidify the pool of talent available to each of these teams. 

In the latest projection, we make a guess on Tua Tagovailoa's Jan. 6 announcement and the corresponding impact. There is little early debate over the first two picks, so the draft essentially starts at No. 3 overall with the Detroit Lions. 

Let's get to it!

NFL Mock Draft
Round 1
Round 1 - Pick 1
LSU • 5 • 6'4" / 215 lbs
Projected Team
Cincinnati
PROSPECT RNK
2nd
POSITION RNK
1st
Cincinnati is in need of a quarterback. They have already shown that Andy Dalton and Ryan Finley are not a part of their future plans.
Round 1 - Pick 2
Ohio State • 5 • 6'5" / 264 lbs
Projected Team
Washington
PROSPECT RNK
1st
POSITION RNK
1st
Young is the best prospect regardless of position. Washington drafted their quarterback last year so Young should be an obvious choice for them.
Round 1 - Pick 3
Ohio State • 5 • 6'1" / 205 lbs
Projected Team
Detroit
PROSPECT RNK
3rd
POSITION RNK
1st
The Lions have undergone some changes in their secondary. The franchise appears ready to usher in a new age of talent. Okudah is easily the best cornerback available. He is a bit slight in frame but aggressive in run support, similar to Denzel Ward.
Round 1 - Pick 4
Georgia • 5 • 6'5" / 315 lbs
Projected Team
N.Y. Giants
PROSPECT RNK
4th
POSITION RNK
1st
General manager Dave Gettleman and the Giants have prioritized the offensive line but it has not worked out just yet. Thomas can slide in at left tackle for the expensive yet under-performing Nate Solder.
Round 1 - Pick 5
Clemson • 5 • 6'4" / 238 lbs
Projected Team
Miami
PROSPECT RNK
8th
POSITION RNK
1st
Simmons can be successful inside or outside. He is a really talented, fluid player. There is no prospect better at making open field tackles. Miami needs talent upgrades across the board and Simmons is the best available.
Round 1 - Pick 6
Alabama • 5 • 6'4" / 307 lbs
Projected Team
L.A. Chargers
PROSPECT RNK
30th
POSITION RNK
4th
Los Angeles has not been able to rely on Russell Okung. Wills has been playing right tackle but his athleticism would likely allow him to transition to left tackle seamlessly.
Round 1 - Pick 7
Alabama • 5 • 6'1" / 225 lbs
Projected Team
Carolina
PROSPECT RNK
5th
POSITION RNK
2nd
Tagovailoa announces his NFL Draft decision on Jan. 6 so this selection could be irrelevant in four days. Carolina appears poised to make a change this offseason. Cam Newton is a very talented player but he can not be relied upon.
Round 1 - Pick 8
Iowa • 5 • 6'6" / 260 lbs
Projected Team
Arizona
PROSPECT RNK
10th
POSITION RNK
2nd
Kyler Murray and Kliff Kingsbury have provided a lot of optimism on offense but now Arizona needs to improve on defense. Epenesa is a really gifted pass rusher. The team needs to apply more pressure beyond Chandler Jones.
Round 1 - Pick 9
Alabama • 5 • 6'1" / 195 lbs
Projected Team
Jacksonville
PROSPECT RNK
6th
POSITION RNK
1st
DJ Chark Jr. had a great season for Jacksonville but they need more production from the position. Jeudy has the highest floor of any wide receiver in this draft class. His attention to detail is much further along than most of his peers.
Round 1 - Pick 10
LSU • 5 • 6'3" / 208 lbs
Projected Team
Cleveland
PROSPECT RNK
9th
POSITION RNK
2nd
Cleveland's decision comes down to Javon Kinlaw and Delpit here. They need offensive tackle help but the remaining options do not warrant such an early selection.
Round 1 - Pick 11
Iowa • 5 • 6'5" / 320 lbs
Projected Team
N.Y. Jets
PROSPECT RNK
15th
POSITION RNK
2nd
The Jets are going to prioritize the improvement of their offensive line this season. It was a common core value in Philadelphia and fans have already been able to see that carry over to New York. Wirfs can play inside or on the edge.
Round 1 - Pick 12
Oklahoma • 5 • 6'2" / 200 lbs
Projected Team
Las Vegas
PROSPECT RNK
7th
POSITION RNK
2nd
The Raiders are commonly attached to wide receivers. Antonio Brown was supposed to be their No. 1 wide receiver that could stretch the field, but that clearly did not work out. Lamb can fulfill their original expectation, with Tyrell Williams and Hunter Renfrow able to capitalize.
Round 1 - Pick 13
Auburn • 5 • 6'5" / 320 lbs
Projected Team
Indianapolis
PROSPECT RNK
12th
POSITION RNK
1st
Brown will be a common projection for the Colts. The team has attempted to add defensive tackle help capable of drawing attention from their smaller but talented linebacker unit. Brown will allow them to be stronger at the point of contact.
Round 1 - Pick 14
LSU • Sr • 5'11" / 197 lbs
Projected Team
Tampa Bay
PROSPECT RNK
14th
POSITION RNK
2nd
Fulton is the second cornerback off the board. He was also the best value at this position. Tampa Bay needs more consistent production at the position. They need offensive tackle help but it was too early for some of the remaining talent.
Round 1 - Pick 15
Alabama • 6'0" / 190 lbs
Projected Team
Denver
PROSPECT RNK
11th
POSITION RNK
3rd
Ruggs working underneath with Courtland Sutton on the edge and Noah Fant flexed out would be difficult for opposing defenses to defend. It is a great combination of size and speed. From there, the attention should turn to improving the offensive line for quarterback Drew Lock.
Round 1 - Pick 16
Boise State • Soph • 6'2" / 265 lbs
Projected Team
Atlanta
PROSPECT RNK
44th
POSITION RNK
5th
The Falcons need to find a way to generate more pass rush next season. Takk McKinley has not been the answer. Weaver is fast and does a great job shedding blocks. He could step in and start as a down defensive end in Dan Quinn's system from Day 1.
Round 1 - Pick 17
Alabama • 5 • 6'0" / 201 lbs
Projected Team
Dallas
PROSPECT RNK
21st
POSITION RNK
3rd
McKinney continues to be one of my favorite players to watch because of his fluid motion and positional flexibility. He is a chess piece for whoever ends up being Dallas' head coach next season. At the end of the day, improvement in the secondary was a must.
Round 1 - Pick 18
LSU • 5 • 6'3" / 245 lbs
Projected Team
Miami
PROSPECT RNK
42nd
POSITION RNK
4th
Chaisson showed his capabilities against Oklahoma in the Peach Bowl. His bend around the edge may be the best in this class and he looked comfortable in coverage. With Simmons and now Chaisson, Miami has fortified their linebacker unit.
Round 1 - Pick 19
Washington • Jr • 6'6" / 226 lbs
Projected Team
Las Vegas
PROSPECT RNK
20th
POSITION RNK
3rd
Jon Gruden has his choice of Justin Herbert, Jordan Love and Jacob Eason at this stage. Love is probably the least likely because of his poor decision-making. It comes down to Gruden's personal preference but Eason is a great option as the team looks to become more explosive before their first game in Las Vegas.
Round 1 - Pick 20
South Carolina • 5 • 6'5" / 319 lbs
Projected Team
Jacksonville
PROSPECT RNK
13th
POSITION RNK
2nd
Jacksonville showed some flaws on their front seven this season but they still have some strong structural pieces with Josh Allen and Calais Campbell. Kinlaw can push the pocket from the interior, which makes them even more difficult to stop.
Round 1 - Pick 21
Clemson • 5 • 6'4" / 219 lbs
Projected Team
Philadelphia
PROSPECT RNK
18th
POSITION RNK
4th
Philadelphia could be staring down some wholesale changes at the wide receiver position this offseason. Higgins is a No. 1 caliber wide receiver, which would allow Philadelphia to move the ball downfield more aggressively.
Round 1 - Pick 22
Oklahoma • 5 • 6'2" / 241 lbs
Projected Team
Tennessee
PROSPECT RNK
17th
POSITION RNK
1st
Murray seems like the missing piece for Mike Vrabel's defense. Vrabel wants someone that he can trust to communicate the calls and make plays; Murray is a great option. He is a fluid mover capable of playing sideline to sideline.
Round 1 - Pick 23
LSU • 5 • 6'1" / 195 lbs
Projected Team
Buffalo
PROSPECT RNK
38th
POSITION RNK
7th
John Brown had a great season but, is it sustainable? Justin Jefferson is either a great compliment or an insurance policy for a team that wants to push the ball downfield with the strong-armed Josh Allen. Jefferson has great hands and body control. He supplies a highlight reel catch seemingly every day.
Round 1 - Pick 24
Alabama • Jr • 6'5" / 312 lbs
Projected Team
Minnesota
PROSPECT RNK
47th
POSITION RNK
8th
Minnesota addressed the center position in the first round last year and now they need to strengthen the edge. Leatherwood is a strong player that has been playing left tackle for the Crimson Tide, but he could slide over to right tackle if the Vikings felt it was in his best interest.
Round 1 - Pick 25
Wisconsin • 5 • 6'4" / 318 lbs
Projected Team
Miami
PROSPECT RNK
22nd
POSITION RNK
3rd
The Dolphins need to strengthen their offensive line before throwing a franchise quarterback or running back in there. Running backs have the shortest career span, so it does not make much sense to waste a year of that until the team is ready to compete.
Round 1 - Pick 26
Florida • 5 • 6'1" / 204 lbs
Projected Team
Seattle
PROSPECT RNK
23rd
POSITION RNK
4th
Pass rush and secondary help were the two primary considerations for Seattle at this point in the first round. Henderson has great potential but he battled through injuries this season. Seattle could land a steal in the second half of the first round.
Round 1 - Pick 27
Virginia • 5 • 6'1" / 202 lbs
Projected Team
New England
PROSPECT RNK
26th
POSITION RNK
5th
New England's secondary has been fantastic this season but Bill Belichick is proactive, not reactionary. The addition of Hall, who is an aggressive player that does a good job locating the ball in the air, is a plan for the future. Hall is coming off a season-ending ankle surgery in October.
Round 1 - Pick 28
TCU • 5 • 5'11" / 197 lbs
Projected Team
Green Bay
PROSPECT RNK
25th
POSITION RNK
5th
Reagor is a reliable Randall Cobb-like contributor that Green Bay has been missing. The TCU product could work out of the slot with Davante Adams over the top. The Packers need to take advantage of the final years with quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
Round 1 - Pick 29
Oklahoma • Sr • 6'4" / 302 lbs
Projected Team
Kansas City
PROSPECT RNK
66th
POSITION RNK
13th
Humphrey is a rock, solid replacement for Mitch Morse, who departed last offseason. He blocks with great leverage and would serve as Phase 1 in the organization's effort to improve the offensive line.
Round 1 - Pick 30
Colorado • 5 • 6'1" / 224 lbs
Projected Team
New Orleans
PROSPECT RNK
27th
POSITION RNK
6th
Michael Thomas can not do it all himself forever. Shenault is a great fit because he is not going to challenge Thomas as an outside receiver. Shenault has some running back like ability that would allow him to be more effective closer to the line of scrimmage.
Round 1 - Pick 31
Penn State • 5 • 6'5" / 265 lbs
Projected Team
San Francisco
PROSPECT RNK
19th
POSITION RNK
3rd
San Francisco has exceeded everyone's expectations this season. Their defensive line has been tremendous but the linebacker unit has room for improvement. Gross-Matos would be a great addition as an outside linebacker in that scheme. The attention commanded by the defensive line would only free him up to make more plays.
Round 1 - Pick 32
Georgia • 5 • 5'9" / 215 lbs
Projected Team
Baltimore
PROSPECT RNK
16th
POSITION RNK
1st
Yes, the Ravens have Mark Ingram and Justice Hill, but Swift is all in one. He can also serve as the future alongside Lamar Jackson. Swift is great a pass protector and pass catcher, which allows for even more wrinkles in that creative Baltimore offense.
