2020 NFL Mock Draft: Breaking Down Post-Week 6 Predictions
Although the 2019 regular season is still young, several teams already know it's time to focus on the 2020 NFL draft. Week 6 also provided a little bit of separation at the top, too.
Of course, we mean the top of the draft order.
Both the New York Jets and Washington picked up their first wins of the campaign, and the latter result was potentially crucial for draft purposes. Washington clipped the Miami Dolphins, who "secured" the tiebreaker to stay higher than the NFC East squad if they end up level on wins come the end of the campaign.
Miami remains locked in a, uh, thrilling race with the Cincinnati Bengals for the No. 1 overall pick in next April's draft.

Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Alabama
He's probably going to be the No. 1 overall pick. Where's he headed?
After Sunday's action in Week 6, it appears the Bengals and Dolphins are the most likely destinations. Cincinnati mustered only 250 yards in a loss to the Ravens, and Miami's dropped two-point conversion handed Washington its first win of the season.
Expecting a surge from either team is unwise, and neither are tied to their current quarterbacks.
Tagovailoa, meanwhile, continues to obliterate box scores for Alabama. He's guided the Crimson Tide to a 6-0 start while racking up 2,011 yards and 27 touchdowns to one interception in six games. The junior has also scampered for two scores.
While he's hoping to lead Alabama back to the College Football Playoff, Tagovailoa might have Dec. 22 circled on his calendar. Miami hosts Cincinnati that day, perhaps with the No. 1 pick at stake.
Jerry Jeudy, WR, Alabama
Tagovailoa's favorite target is Jerry Jeudy, a smooth and dynamic route-runner who absolutely has top-five upside.
Jeudy won the Biletnikoff Award in 2018 after amassing 1,315 yards and 14 touchdowns on 68 catches. So far in 2019, he's grabbed 42 passes for 538 yards and six scores.
And the Jets sure could use a wideout like him.
Sam Darnold is their long-term quarterback, but New York's receiving corps has Jamison Crowder, Robby Anderson―whose contract is expiring―and not much else at the position. While Quincy Enunwa has talent, his injury history is a major cause for concern. The Jets absolutely need to upgrade around Darnold.
Given the premium placed on quarterbacks, left tackles and playmaking rushers, New York has a great chance to snag Jeudy.
Tyler Biadasz, C, Wisconsin

The Rams need offensive help.
Considering the deserved praise for Sean McVay over the last two years, that sentence feels strange. However, the truth is Los Angeles has lost the dynamic portion of its rushing attack.
We can debate Todd Gurley's health and long-term value, but the more important issue is the offensive line. The Rams chose to not re-sign center John Sullivan this offseason, and though he had a mediocre 2018, his replacement―Brian Allen―is having a worse campaign. Starting tackles Andrew Whitworth and Rob Havenstein are having poor seasons, too.
Los Angeles should have a close eye on Tyler Biadasz, a terrific run-blocker who can replace Allen in the middle and be a powerful force up front immediately.
One player will not settle the offensive line. Gurley's health is a major question too. But adding Biadasz would be a positive, critical step in the right direction for the Rams.
