Andrew Lalama's final NFL mock draft projects picks for rounds two and three of the 2020 NFL Draft, including spots for rookies affecting fantasy football in dynasty and redraft.
Welcome to day two of the 2020 NFL Draft. The first round is in the books, but the draft is just heating up. The second and third rounds are opportunities for teams to add potential starters and fill needs.
There are still high-upside prospects on the board, especially at running back, wide receiver, offensive tackle, and safety. Expect more movement on the trade front, as decision-makers will have had all day to make deals.
This mock draft is a projection of what I think will happen tonight. Click here for my top 100 and undervalued players and here for my top 50 players with write-ups.

Round 2
33. Bengals - Cole Kmet - TE, Notre Dame
The Bengals need more weapons for Joe Burrow, especially at tight end. Most believe Cole Kmet is the best tight end in the draft.
34. Colts (f/WAS) - Denzel Mims - WR, Baylor
It's quite surprising that a player with the profile of Denzel Mims fell to the second round. He won't be available very long.
35. Lions - Yetur Gross-Matos - EDGE, Penn St.
The Lions added to the third level of their defense with Jeff Okudah. Yetur Gross-Matos can help apply some pressure on quarterbacks and set the edge in the run game.
36. Giants - Matt Hennessy - C, Temple
After adding Andrew Thomas at tackle with the fourth overall pick, the Giants solidify their offensive line even more with one of the best interior prospects in this class.
37. Patriots (f/LAC) - Raekwon Davis - DT, Alabama
The Patriots had no problem trading down all the way to pick No. 37. They may have been targeting an impact defensive lineman like Raekwon Davis.
38. Panthers - Trevon Diggs - CB, Alabama
Trevon Diggs fell out of the first round but has the talent to develop into a starting corner. Diggs is the brother of Stefon and actually played some wide receiver at Alabama.
39. Dolphins - Jonathan Taylor - RB, Wisconsin
The Dolphins will surely use one of their many picks on a running back. Jonathan Taylor is arguably the best pure runner in this class and should still be available.
40. Texans (f/ARI) - Ross Blacklock - DT, TCU
The Texans traded for Brandin Cooks but still may go receiver here if they move on from Keke Coutee. They also need help along the defensive line, though, so Blacklock makes sense.
41. Browns - Xavier McKinney - S, Alabama
The Browns luck out and have their top-ranked safety in the draft fall into their laps.
42. Jaguars - Michael Pittman Jr. - WR, USC
After addressing the defense in the first round, the Jaguars opt for a big-bodied target for Gardner Minshew.
43. Bears (f/LVR) - A.J. Epenesa - DE, Iowa
The Bears stop A.J. Epenesa's surprising slide. Epenesa's poor 3-cone time is a bad sign but his film shows strength at the point of attack.
44. Colts - Kristian Fulton - CB, LSU
After getting a first-round talent at wide receiver, the Colts fill a need with a highly productive and talented cornerback.
45. Buccaneers - D'Andre Swift - RB, Georgia
The Bucs wanted to go defense here but decide they can't pass on the talents of D'Andre Swift. Swift's pass-catching ability makes him a perfect fit in Tom Brady's offense.
46. Broncos - John Simpson - OG, Clemson
Simpson is not always technique-sound or balanced, but he has mauler capabilities on the inside.
47. Falcons - Neville Gallimore - DT, Oklahoma
Despite rumors they would trade up, the Falcons stand pat and add another talented young piece to an underachieving defense.
48. Jets - Tee Higgins - WR, Clemson
The Jets took the risk with Mekhi Becton in the first round, probably in part due to the receiver depth of this class. Tee Higgins has WR1 written all over him and is slipping due to durability concerns.
49. Steelers - Ezra Cleveland - OT, Boise State
The Steelers need a tackle and did not expect Ezra Cleveland to fall this far.
50. Bears - Antoine Winfield Jr. - S, Minnesota
The Bears could use a safety opposite Eddie Jackson, and Antoine Winfield Jr. can play free safety or slot corner.
51. Cowboys - Jaylon Johnson - CB, Utah
After filling a need at slot receiver in the first round, the Cowboys upgrade the secondary with Jaylon Johnson.
52. Rams - Zack Baun - EDGE, Wisconsin
The Rams need help on the defensive line and at linebacker. There are questions about whether Zack Baun is an edge-player or off-ball linebacker, but there's no denying he's a quality football player.
53. Eagles - Logan Wilson - LB, Wyoming
Logan Wilson had over 400 tackles at Wyoming and the Eagles need help at linebacker.
54. Bills - J.K. Dobbins - RB, Ohio St.
Regardless of the constant debate about running back value, J.K. Dobbins is a quality football player that fits Buffalo's tough, physical style.
55. Ravens (f/NE t/ATL) - Laviska Shenault Jr. - WR, Colorado
It's no secret the Ravens want to keep adding weapons for Lamar Jackson. Laviska Shenault Jr. is one of the most explosive players in this draft.
56. Dolphins (f/NO) - Grant Delpit - S, LSU
Good players will undoubtedly fall further than expected. In this projection, the Dolphins steal a sliding Grant Delpit to be a starting safety for years to come.
57. Rams (f/HOU) - Lloyd Cushenberry - C, LSU
The Rams need a center and Lloyd Cushenberry was the leader of the National Champion LSU Tigers' offensive line.
58. Vikings - Josh Jones - OT, Houston
While the Vikings don't have a glaring need at tackle right now, they can't pass up the value of Josh Jones outside the top-50.
59. Seahawks - Lucas Niang - OT, TCU
The Seahawks need a right tackle. Lucas Niang doesn't have the best-looking body, but he gets it done.
60. Ravens - Cam Akers - RB, Florida St.
Mark Ingram is going to be 31 next season and the Ravens surely don't want to run Lamar Jackson as much as they did last year.
61. Titans - Marlon Davidson - DL, Auburn
The Titans worked on the offensive line in the first round, so go to the trenches on the defensive side of the ball with their second pick.
62. Packers - K.J. Hamler - WR, Penn St.
The Packers add a legitimate deep threat for Aaron Rodgers... and Jordan Love.
63. Chiefs (f/SF) - Bryce Hall - CB, Virginia
Bryce Hall flashes on film. If he can stay healthy, he can be a starter in the NFL.
64. Seahawks (f/KC) - Lynn Bowden Jr. - WR, Kentucky
In a mild surprise, the Seahawks add to their offensive weaponry with the explosive and versatile Lynn Bowden Jr.
