The 2020 NFL Draft will get underway on Thursday (barring any technical difficulties, which isn’t exactly out of the question at this point) with Round 1.
The SEC could set a record for first-round picks, and on Monday, NFL.com draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah took to Twitter to name some players who have seen their stock rise over the weekend.
As you can see below, he included Alabama CB Trevon Diggs and Tennessee edge rusher Darrell Taylor among the list of 4 players:
Talked to a bunch of GMs over the weekend. A couple of guys that will go higher than anticipated:
USC OT Austin Jackson
TCU WR Jalen Reagor
Bama CB Trevon Diggs
TENN Edge Darrell Taylor— Daniel Jeremiah (@MoveTheSticks) April 20, 2020
Diggs is a potential Round 1 pick, while Taylor is a likely Day 2 selection. But as Jeremiah said, those guys could come off the board earlier than many expect.
We’ll see this week exactly when these talented players hear their names called.
