2020 Dynasty Rookie Mock Draft, Five Rounds With Commentary (from the 1.09 Spot)
1st-Round (pick 1.09)
Not a fan of this area of the DRD…not a fan at all. Last draft, I reached for Joe Burrow at 1.08. This draft, let’s say I’m good at QB on my FF team and I want to go after an RB or WR or TE? Well, there are no TEs worth it this year, so we’re looking at any of the WRs who I love more than anyone else (Mims, Edwards, Pittman types) or I reach for Moss-Dillon-Vaughn.
I have NO interest in Ke’Shawn Vaughn at all, so he’s out.
I’m not thrilled by Moss either, but as a Singletary cuff has some value.
I do like Dillon but he might fall to me next pick, but doubtful.
I’d trade out of this pick in reality but I have to make it here, so I will take Denzel Mims as a Julio Jones-like hopeful who could be the Jets #1 WR right out of the gates…but it’s with Sam Darnold, so I don’t have a ton of faith in that…but maybe we can get an old Blake Bortles-to-Allen Robinson blind bombs/prayer throwing magic from back in the day that one year here.
I’ll take Mims and pray Edwards (or Dillon) is there next pick.
1.1 Jonathan Taylor
1.2 C. Edwards-Helaire
1.3 Jerry Jeudy
1.4 CeeDee Lamb
1.5 J.K. Dobbins
1.6 D'Andre Swift
1.7 Jalen Reagor
1.8 Cam Akers
1.9 Denzel Mims
1.10 Justin Jefferson
1.11 Henry Ruggs III
1.12 Joe Burrow
2nd-Round (pick 2.09)
I got my choice of Dillon or Edwards, so I’ll take Dillon since I already took a WR 1st-round. In reality, Dillon won’t be here in MOST DRDs. I’m not sure what’s up with the FantasyPros rankings.
2.1 Ke'Shawn Vaughn
2.2 Tua Tagovailoa
2.3 M. Pittman
2.4 Zack Moss
2.5 Tee Higgins
2.6 Brandon Aiyuk
2.7 L. Shenault
2.8 Justin Herbert
2.9 A.J. Dillon
2.10 Bryan Edwards
2.11 Chase Claypool
2.12 Darrynton Evans
3rd-Round (pick 3.09)
OK, if you’ll let me take Joshua Kelley here…I won’t complain. Two RBs that I didn’t imagine leaving this #9 slot draft with. Nice!!!
3.1 Cole Kmet
3.2 Antonio Gibson
3.3 KJ Hamler
3.4 A. McFarland
3.5 Tyler Johnson
3.6 Devin Duvernay
3.7 Lynn Bowden Jr.
3.8 Adam Trautman
3.9 Joshua Kelley
3.10 Lamical Perine
3.11 Van Jefferson
3.12 A. Gandy-Golden
4th-Round (pick 4.09)
Things went so well already that I’ll just take my usual guys 4th and 5th…Joe Reed here, my Deebo-alike hopeful.
4.1 Jordan Love
4.2 Dalton Keene
4.3 Devin Asiasi
4.4 Justin Rohrwasser
4.5 Eno Benjamin
4.6 DeeJay Dallas
4.7 Jalen Hurts

4.11 Gabriel Davis
4.12 D. Peoples-Jones
5th-Round (pick 5.09)
TE Colby Parkinson to wrap things up on a surprising DRD from the 1.09 spot. I hate the 1.09 spot, but this went luckily well.
