2020 NFL Draft: Chicago Sun-Times’ final mock draft has four QBs among top 12 picks

The Bears don’t have a first-round pick Thursday, but there’s plenty worth watching as the NFL Draft opens. Here is one last crack at predicting who goes where:

1. Bengals: LSU QB Joe Burrow

This pick is as easy as it gets. The reigning Heisman Trophy winner and national champion is the Bengals’ new franchise quarterback.

2. Redskins: Ohio State DE Chase Young

Maybe even more so than Burrow, Young is a can’t-miss talent.

3. Lions: Auburn DT Derrick Brown

Brown would be an instant starter for the Lions, who probably will be fielding trade proposals from teams that need a quarterback right up until the pick.

4. Giants: Louisville OT Mekhi Becton

He is an incredibly uncommon talent (6-7, 364 pounds, 5.1 seconds in the 40-yard dash) at a position of huge need.

5. Dolphins: Oregon QB Justin Herbert

So much for ‘‘Tanking for Tua,’’ as the Dolphins have a late change of heart.

6. Chargers: Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa

It’s a perfect plan for the Chargers: They have a shot with Tyrod Taylor this season, then they go to Tagovailoa in 2021.

7. Panthers: Ohio State CB Jeff Okudah

Okudah is widely projected to go higher than this, so it’s a tremendous value pick.

8. Cardinals: Clemson LB Isaiah Simmons

He’s an extremely versatile linebacker who can play safety in a pinch.

9. Jaguars: Alabama OT Jedrick Wills

There’s a lot of debate about Becton, Wills and Tristan Wirfs at offensive tackle, so their order is interchangeable. But Wills is the pick here.

10. Browns: Iowa OT Tristan Wirfs

It’s a pretty good consolation prize when the top two offensive tackles are off the board and you still can land an elite college blocker.

Alabama wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (4) scores against Arkansas.

11. Jets: Alabama WR Jerry Jeudy

Coach Adam Gase loves wide receivers more than you love Italian beef, and Jeudy is clearly the best of a loaded class at the position.

12. Raiders: Utah State QB Jordan Love

Everyone wants to find the next Patrick Mahomes, especially a team that has to beat him in its division. The Raiders hope Love is the guy.

13. 49ers (from Colts): Oklahoma WR CeeDee Lamb

A dynamic playmaker for an offense that needs some juice.

14. Buccaneers: South Carolina DT Javon Kinlaw

Already having virtually everything Tom Brady needs offensively, the Bucs beef up their D-line.

15. Broncos: Alabama WR Henry Ruggs III

A lifeless offense gets a firecracker with the fastest player in the draft.

16. Falcons: Florida CB C.J. Henderson

Henderson is the clear No. 2 cornerback in his class and even might sneak into the top 10.

17. Cowboys: Clemson CB A.J. Terrell

He would be the ninth Clemson cornerback drafted since 2010.

18. Dolphins (from Steelers): Georgia OT Andrew Thomas

Thomas’ stock has risen steadily in the last few weeks, and the Dolphins need a tackle after dealing Laremy Tunsil.

19. Raiders (from Bears): Clemson WR Tee Higgins

He put up 1,167 yards and 13 touchdowns as a junior.

20. Jaguars (from Rams): LSU ILB Patrick Queen

The Jaguars have unloaded a lot of top defensive talent lately and need to replenish.

LSU linebacker K’Lavon Chaisson (18) takes down a Georgia Southern player last season.

21. Eagles: LSU OLB K’Lavon Chaisson

Chaisson is an explosive pass rusher who might play defensive end with the Eagles.

22. Vikings (from Bills): LSU WR Justin Jefferson

This works out wonderfully for the Vikings after trading Stefon Diggs.

23. Patriots: Washington QB Jacob Eason

Anybody else find it suspicious that the Patriots didn’t make a significant acquisition at quarterback?

24. Saints: Utah CB Jaylon Johnson

Their next pick is No. 88, so they had better make this one count.

25. Vikings: Houston OT Josh Jones

The Vikings get a long-term tackle who can be plugged in as an athletic guard for now.

26. Dolphins (from Texans): Minnesota S Antoine Winfield Jr.

He’ll replace former Pro Bowl safety Reshad Jones, who was cut.

27. Seahawks: Penn State DE Yetur Gross-Matos

He racked up an impressive 34.5 tackles for loss in his last 24 college games.

28. Ravens: Alabama S Xavier McKinney

A nice match for the Ravens as the best player available fits well with a need.

29. Titans: Alabama CB Trevon Diggs

Stefon Diggs’ little brother projects as an NFL-ready starter.

30. Packers: Oklahoma ILB Kenneth Murray

The Packers get a replacement for Blake Martinez, who left for the Giants.

31. 49ers: TCU DT Ross Blacklock

The 49ers traded Pro Bowler DeForest Buckner for the No. 13 pick and find his successor here.

32. Chiefs: Iowa DE A.J. Epenesa

Epenesa averaged close to a sack a game in his final two seasons of college.
