Now that the 2019 NFL Draft is in the books, it's never too early to talk about 2020.
The 2020 NFL Draft will be stronger on quarterbacks than this year, especially if Alabama's Tua Tagovailoa and Georgia's Jake Fromm decide to forego their senior seasons, as expected, and join Oregon's Justin Herbert at the top of the draft.

The draft order was determined based on teams' Vegas odds to win the Super Bowl with some shuffling based on possible playoff positioning and SN projections. We know a lot can change between now and next April, but we're still going to mock this out anyway. You can check out our 2020 Top 50 big board here, too.

NFL mock draft 2020
1. Oakland Raiders: Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Alabama
The Raiders need a bold move before the move to Las Vegas, and Jon Gruden and Mike Mayock go with the accurate passer from Alabama. The Raiders have their franchise quarterback. Ken Stabler would approve.
2. New York Giants: Jerry Jeudy, WR, Alabama
The Giants add Jeudy to an offense that already features Saquon Barkley, and that erases the sting of the Odell Beckham, Jr. trade a year later. It should. Jeudy is the most-talented playmaker on the board.
3. Miami Dolphins: Derrick Brown, DT, Auburn
Miami cannot pass up Brown, a 6-5, 325-pound defensive tackle who fortifies a position of need. Brown becomes the most-coveted defensive lineman after a monster senior season with the Tigers.
4. Washington Redskins: Andrew Thomas, T, Georgia
The Redskins need help at other places, but Thomas impresses at the Combine and prompts Washington to prepare for life after Trent Williams, who will be an unrestricted free agent in 2021.
5. Cincinnati Bengals: Justin Herbert, QB, Georgia
The Bengals start over at quarterback with Herbert an accurate passer who fits in Zac Taylor's system and offers a fresh start at the position.
6. Arizona Cardinals: A.J. Epenesa, DE, Iowa
A year after passing on Nick Bosa, the Cardinals bring in another Big Ten defensive end in Epenesa, who doesn't have the same name recognition but has a similar skill-set off the edge.
7. Buffalo Bills: Grant Delpit, S, LSU
Delpit had five interceptions and five sacks last season. He fills a need for another play-maker in the secondary for the Bills.
8. Detroit Lions: Jake Fromm, QB, Georgia
Detroit begins the process of moving on from Matthew Stafford, and the fact Fromm went to the same school will draw some groans. Fromm, however, is more than capable of being a franchise quarterback in the future.
9. Tennessee Titans: Chase Young, DE, Ohio State
The Titans get a steal at No. 8 in Young, who adds even more to the pass rush for coach Mike Vrabel. Young might not fall this far if he has a double-digit sack season as a junior for the Buckeyes.
10. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Walker Little, T, Stanford
The Bucs could go for a quarterback here, too, but they opt to stick with Jameis Winston and they give him one of the best offensive linemen on the board.
11. New York Jets: Trey Smith, T, Tennessee
The Jets take the third premier tackle off the board and get another long-term solution to protect franchise quarterback Sam Darnold.
12. Denver Broncos: Isaiah Simmons, LB, Clemson
The Broncos pick up Simmons, a versatile linebacker who chose to stay in school for one more season. Simmons finished with 88 tackles and nine tackles for loss in 2018. He shores up the secondary.
13. Carolina Panthers: Tee Higgins, WR, Clemson
Cam Newton is at his best with a receiver who can stretch the field, and Higgins will pile on with Trevor Lawrence in his junior season.
14. Houston Texans: Travis Etienne, RB, Clemson
The Clemson first-round run continues. There is a boom-or-bust factor at work, but Etienne's prolific TD rate on a reasonable workload is too much too pass up. Etienne shares a backfield with Deshaun Watson. That will be fun.
15. Seattle Seahawks: Shaq Quarterman, LB, Miami
The Seahawks reach here, but Quarterman is one of the more complete linebackers in the FBS, and he'll get better with the Hurricanes with another year under Manny Diaz.
16. Baltimore Ravens: Dylan Moses, LB, Alabama
Ozzie Newsome is gone, but the Ravens' affinity for Alabama players continues with Moses, a linebacker who will be ready to play right away.
17. Jacksonville Jaguars: Trey Adams, T, Washington
The fourth tackle off the board is Adams, who has struggled with injuries but still has top-10 potential when healthy.
18. Atlanta Falcons: Jonathan Taylor, RB, Wisconsin
Taylor falls this far, and the Falcons can't pass this up. They go for the prolific Wisconsin running back who might have another 2,000-yard season under his belt.
19. San Francisco 49ers: Laviska Shenault, WR, Colorado
The 49ers missed out on some big-time receivers this year, but Shenault is one who could develop into a full-fledged star at the next level.
20: Minnesota Vikings: Albert Okwuegbunam, TE, Missouri
Kyle Rudolph is in the final year of his contract, so the Vikings get a replacement with the best tight end on the board.
21. Pittsburgh Steelers: C.J. Henderson, CB, Florida
The Steelers get another cornerback to work with in the AFC North, and Henderson finds a mentor in Joe Haden.
22. Green Bay Packers: Tyler Biadasz, G, Wisconsin
It's not a splash pick, but the Packers get some help on the interior line from the nearby school that does a fantastic job of producing that talent.
23. Los Angeles Chargers: Collin Johnson, WR, Texas
Johnson becomes the fourth receiver taken in the first round and gives Philip Rivers a big target that will remind him the good-ole days with Vincent Jackson.
24. Philadelphia Eagles: Paddy Fisher, LB, Northwestern
Fisher is an all-around stud for the Wildcats, and if he chooses to come out early he would be a good fit in Jim Schwartz's defense in Philadelphia.
25. Chicago Bears: Nick Coe, DE/DT, Auburn
The Bears have the edge rushers, but Coe gives them another disruptive piece up front for a dominant defense.
26. Cleveland Browns: Jaylon Johnson, CB, Utah
Johnson falls farther than he should, and Browns general manager John Dorsey is quick to grab a value pick at a position of need this late in the first round.
27. Dallas Cowboys: Curtis Weaver, EDGE, Boise State
The Cowboys go back to the Boise State well for an underrated edge rusher who should shoot up the draft boards.
28. Indianapolis Colts: Kristian Fulton, CB, LSU
Fulton must show he's recovered from last season's ankle injury, and if he does then he will be one of the top defensive backs in the FBS.
29. New Orleans Saints: Raekwon Davis, DE, Alabama
Davis slips lower than expected, but he finds a home in New Orleans. Davis is the fourth first-round pick from Alabama in this mock.
30. Kansas City Chiefs: CeeDee Lamb, WR, Oklahoma
The Chiefs can't help themselves. They go get another home-run hitter for Patrick Mahomes to throw to, and the Oklahoma connection doesn't hurt.
31. L.A. Rams: Mekhi Becton, T, Louisville
Andrew Whitworth will be an unrestricted free agent in 2020, and Becton continues the runs of tackles in this draft. It makes sense to add more protection for Jared Goff.
32. New England Patriots: Kenny Willekes, DE, Michigan State
Willekes isn't a flashy pick, but he has evolved into one of the best defensive linemen in the Big Ten. Epenesa and Young will get more headlines, but Willekes fits into what the Patriots want out of their defensive ends.
