2020 NFL Draft pick order and team needs for the first two rounds

The 2020 NFL Draft was envisioned as a one-of-a-kind spectacle on the Las Vegas strip, with draft picks riding a boat to the stage to shake commissioner Roger Goodell’s hand, but the coronavirus crisis has led to the first-ever virtual draft. Team executives from across the league will be sending in picks from their own personal war rooms at home, and it’s almost guaranteed that we’ll see some technical difficulties delaying proceedings during one of the biggest events on the NFL calendar.

Former LSU quarterback Joe Burrow and Ohio State’s Chase Young are locks to go first and second overall, but anything is possible after that. Will a QB-needy team trade up to select Tua Tagovailoa at No. 3? Will the former Alabama star fall due to injury concerns? How many wideouts will go in the first round? We’re about to find out.

The 2020 NFL Draft will begin on Thursday, April 23rd at 8:00 p.m. ET on ABC, ESPN and the NFL Network.

Here is the draft order for the first two rounds, along with every team’s biggest needs:
