Antonio Gandy-Golden was one of the most valuable picks in the 2020 draft

With their fourth pick of the 2020 NFL Draft, the Washington Redskins selected Antonio Gandy-Golden, a wide receiver from Liberty.

Fans may have heard the name in mock drafts and brief scouting reports in the months leading up to the draft, but few people may have actually know exactly who the Redskins were adding to the team. Now that a few days have passed, it’s clear that Washington got one of the bigger steals of the draft, and someone who a few analysts are saying could be one of the most valuable picks in the whole class.

NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah came out on Monday with his list of the best value picks from each round, and he had AGG jotted down as his choice from the 4th round, picking him over players like TE Harrison Bryant (Cleveland) and LB Troy Dye (Minnesota).

Jeremiah broke the list down using a simple scale where he took his overall rank of each player, subtracting it from the pick they were eventually drafted at. Gandy-Golden — who was drafted No. 142 overall — had a +63 rating, as he was Jeremiah’s 79th rated player in the draft.

Washington will now be able to add him to a deep receiving corp where they already have Terry McLaurin leading the way, whom they found max value with in 2019 as well.
