Saints Use Their Last Pick On Tommy Stevens
With the 240th overall pick of the 2020 NFL Draft in the seventh round, the New Orleans Saints took Mississippi State quarterback Tommy Stevens. Is he the next Tom Brady?

Dane Jackson Goes To Buffalo
With the 239th overall pick in the NFL Draft in the seventh round, the Buffalo Bills selected Pittsburgh cornerback Dane Jackson. Jackson is only 6-foot, 187 pounds, but he makes up for it by playing with an attitude, and he can play outside near the sideline or in the slot, so that gives him a […]

T.J. Brunson Selected By Giants
The New York Giants added South Carolina inside linebacker T.J. Brunson with the 238th overall pick of the 2020 NFL Draft in the seventh round. Brunson is a physical off-ball linebacker, but he's not fast enough to play sideline-to-sideline and also doesn't thrive in coverage. Brunson will need to become more flexible and gain strength […]

Chiefs Take Thakarius Keyes In Last Round
The Kansas City Chiefs selected Tulane cornerback Thakarius Keyes with the 237th overall pick in the seventh round. Keyes has the physical traits to be effective in press coverage at the line in the NFL, but his recovery speed is suspect and he could be exposed deep down the field by quicker and speedier pass-catchers. […]

With the 220th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2020 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Chargers selected Ohio State wide receiver K.J. Hill.

Ravens Take A Flier On Geno Stone
The Baltimore Ravens selected Iowa safety Geno Stone with the 219th overall pick of the NFL Draft in the seventh round. Stone's size (5-foot-10, 207 pounds) and arms don't jump off the page, but he's naturally instinctive in the secondary with good recognition skills.

Giants Take Carter Coughlin With Pick No. 218
The New York Giants selected Minnesota outside linebacker Carter Coughlin with the 218th overall pick in the seventh round.

With the 204th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, the New England Patriots drafted Wyoming inside linebacker Cassh Maluia in the sixth round.

Cardinals Go With Evan Weaver At No. 202
The Arizona Cardinals selected California inside linebacker Evan Weaver with the 202nd overall pick in the sixth round.
