Round 3 (75): G Jonah Jackson, Ohio State. Round 4 (121): G Logan Stenberg, Kentucky. Round 5 (166): WR Quintez Cephus, Wisconsin. Round 5 (172): RB Jason Huntley, New Mexico State. Round 6 (197): DI John Penisini, Utah. Round 7 (235): DI Jashon Cornell, Ohio State.): Then: A, Now: B.: There was plenty of reason to get excited about this class when draft weekend wrapped up, but it has not been pretty since then. Though Swift's overall PFF grade was down this year compared to last, he had two really strong performances before a shoulder injury killed his momentum this season. After tough rookie years for Jackson and Okwara, both bounced back big time during their sophomore seasons in the league. As for the top of the draft, Okudah looked overwhelmed his rookie season and tore his achilles in 2021. The injury isn’t Okudah’s fault, but he does need to play better than he’s shown.): https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-regrading-2020-nfl-draft#DET
