I can also post Dane Bruglars scouting report that is for The Athletic subscribers.  Man he is long winded. 
I will add to each draft pick. 

That would be great. I heard The Beast has around 250 000 words. How is it formatted ? I couldn't find snippet anywhere.

Mel Kiper's final draft

 

It's time for one final first-round mock draft before the 2020 NFL draft. I'm projecting picks 1-32 based on what I'm hearing and where I think prospects could come off the board and using my top 300 Big Board and position rankings as a guide.

This is going to be a chaotic draft. There will be trades that throw off the order, with teams moving up and down. I'm not including trades in this mock draft, but I'll note the picks that have the potential to be moved.

Live coverage of Round 1 kicks off at 7 p.m. ET Thursday on ABC, ESPN and the ESPN App, and I'll be on for all seven rounds through Saturday night. Here we go, projecting Round 1:

_end_rule.pngcin.png?w=110&h=110&transparent=true

1. Cincinnati Bengals

Joe Burrow, QB, LSU | Highlights

Burrow is just what the Bengals need after a 2-14 season. The Heisman Trophy winner can step in and be the starter from day one. He's the clear top quarterback in this class.

2. Washington Redskins

Chase Young, DE, Ohio State | Highlights

Ron Rivera said Washington has talked to teams about trades for this pick, but I'm not buying that being serious. Rivera is a defensive coach, and he can't pass up Young, the best overall prospect in this class and an elite edge rusher.

3. Detroit Lions

 

Derrick Brown, DT, Auburn | Highlights

Detroit needs to go defense here -- cornerback Jeff Okudah also makes sense -- and Brown fills a huge hole in the middle of this front seven. Plus, he's more than just a run-plugger. This is a spot to watch for a trade.

4. New York Giants

Tristan Wirfs, OT, Iowa | Highlights

My thinking here is that the Giants' void at tackle is too great for them to pass on one here. Wirfs is an instant upgrade at right tackle. As I wrote on Wednesday, though, the Giants' best-case scenario would be to trade down a couple of spots and still get Wirfs.

5. Miami Dolphins

Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Alabama | Highlights

It's smoke screen season, and I've gone back and forth on this pick a few times. But I just can't see Miami passing on a quarterback, and Tagovailoa is higher on my board than the rest of the QBs.

6. Los Angeles Chargers

Justin Herbert, QB, Oregon | Highlights

This scenario would leave Herbert for the Chargers, and he's a great fit for a team that has some weapons on offense. That said, I wouldn't be shocked if L.A. skipped quarterback altogether, drafted an offensive tackle and went all-in on Tyrod Taylor for 2020.

7. Carolina Panthers

Isaiah Simmons, OLB, Clemson | Highlights

I just can't see Simmons falling out of the top 10, though not every team will prioritize an off-ball linebacker this early. I have called Simmons the safest pick in the draft, and Carolina's defense has undergone an offseason makeover.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
