ROUND THREE
65. Cincinnati Bengals: Carlos Basham Jr., Edge, Wake Forest
The Bengals need a youth movement along the defensive line. Basham has been stellar in 2019 and should be able to contribute immediately.
66. New York Jets: Jaylon Johnson, Cornerback, Utah
The Trumaine Johnson signing was a disaster. The Jets need help at cornerback in the worst way. Jaylon Johnson can start as a rookie and has the potential to develop into a quality player.
67. Atlanta Falcons: Kenny Willekes, Edge, Michigan State
The Falcons are poised to lose Vic Beasley in free agency, as they are in cap hell. Finding a productive pass rusher in the 2020 NFL draft will be necessary.
68. Washington Redskins: Albert Okwuegbunam, Tight End, Missouri
The Redskins can no longer rely on Jordan Reed, so drafting a dynamic tight end for Dwayne Haskins is smart.
69. Miami Dolphins: Cesar Ruiz, Offensive Line, Michigan
The Dolphins need to throw legitimate resources at the offensive line. Drafting Ruiz here would allow them to release Dan Kilgore and upgrade the center position.
70. Detroit Lions: Netane Muti, Offensive Line, Fresno State
The Lions’ offensive line was supposed to be one of the teams’ strengths, as they have invested serious resources into improving the unit; however, their guard play has been terrible.
71. Arizona Cardinals: Justin Jefferson, Wide Receiver, LSU
Creating an environment where Kyler Murray can excel is paramount for the Arizona Cardinals. In the first round, they found an offensive tackle, whom can protect him. Now, they find a receiver with some size and good playmaking ability to be the successor for Larry Fitzgerald.
72. Los Angeles Chargers: Prince Tega Wanogho, Offensive Tackle, Auburn
Getting a quality left tackle with starting potential in round three is something that should be applauded. Tega Wanogho is a massive man, whom can protect Justin Herbert’s blindside for the next decade.
73. Denver Broncos: Marvin Wilson, Defensive Tackle, Florida State
Before his injury, Marvin Wilson was playing better than any interior defensive linemen in college football. That injury pushes him down the draft board some, allowing the Broncos to pounce on a future pro bowl caliber defensive tackle.
74. Jacksonville Jaguars: Isaiah Wilson, Offensive Tackle, Georgia
Can Cam Robinson stay healthy? That is a question that the Jacksonville Jaguars really need to ask themselves.
75. New York Jets: Khalid Kareem, Edge, Notre Dame
The Jets are able to snag one of the most underrated players in the draft with this pick. Khalid Kareem is a stout edge defender, whose game is reminiscent of Trey Flowers. The Jets get some much needed help at defensive end.
76. Carolina Panthers: Ben Bredeson, Offensive Line, Michigan
The run of draft steals continues, as the Panthers are able to land a reliable and effective guard in Ben Bredeson.
77. Cleveland Browns: Richard LeCounte, Safety, Georgia
The Browns need an enforcer in their secondary. Enter Richard LeCounte, who plays like his hair is on fire and isn’t afraid to lay the lumber.
78. Philadelphia Eagles: Alton Robinson, Edge, Syracuse
Brandon Graham cannot play forever and the Eagles are at their best when they have the ability to rotate talented players along the defensive line.
79. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Najee Harris, Running Back, Alabama
Over the course of the last few weeks, Najee Harris has proved that he is a big time NFL potential. He has been a complete workhorse for the Alabama Crimson Tide and gives the Buccaneers a massive upgrade to Peyton Barber.
80. Las Vegas Raiders: Rashard Lawrence, Defensive Tackle, LSU
Mike Mayock will take the best player on the board when it mirrors a position of need. Rashard Lawrence has been masterful in 2019 and this selection gives the Raiders a quality player to pair with Maurice Hurst on the interior of their defensive line.
