Round 4
4.01 (Jordan) Gabriel Davis, WR – Baltimore Ravens (3rd)
I’m higher on UCF’s Gabriel Davis than most fantasy analysts, so I’m ecstatic to see the wide receiver here in the fourth round. Davis has the physical makeup to be a starter in the NFL, and he lands with one of the WR-neediest teams in the league. Baltimore’s wide receiver corps hurt their offense in the NFL Playoffs, and Davis is talented enough to make an impact in year one.
4.02 (Frosty) Antonio Gandy-Golden, WR – Cincinnati Bengals (6th)
I’m very happy that Gandy-Golden was here to take as my second WR of this draft. Gandy-Golden is someone I would not be surprised to see their name called on Day 2 of the draft, but because of the incredible depth at the position and him coming from a small school, he fell to the sixth round in Neal’s draft. A.J. Green has to be on his way out of Cincinnati at some point, and Gandy-Golden could catapult himself as the Bengals’ WR2 in no time alongside Tyler Boyd.
4.03 (Tommy) James Morgan, QB – Pittsburgh Steelers (4th)
Since this is Superflex, I felt it necessary to select a quarterback and managed to land a player who is under the radar but starting to get some love by NFL teams. Former FIU QB James Morgan is not going to be a Day 1 starter like Burrow, Tua, or Herbert, but sitting behind a veteran where he can learn and develop is the best-case scenario. From a size, mobility, and arm talent perspective, Morgan checks the boxes.
There are issues with decision making and accuracy, but sitting behind an aging Ben Roethlisberger to work on that is what he needs. Morgan is a high-end developmental quarterback prospect given his physical traits.
4.04 (Corey) Van Jefferson, WR – New York Giants (3rd)
Van Jefferson had a few things going for him at this point in the draft. One, I think he is probably the best route runner remaining, and two, he had a third-round investment in Neal’s mock draft. The Giants do have three solid WRs that will play ahead of him, but I’m not sure how long Golden Tate will be around. This is a flier on a late-round guy that I like.
4.05 (Houtz) Quintez Cephus, WR – Dallas Cowboys (4th)
Cephus was the best wide receiver available, and although I don’t know how effective he will be early on in Dallas, there’s still plenty of question marks surrounding that offense. I felt like the value at 4.05 greatly outweighed the rest of the board.
4.06 (Andrew) Tyler Johnson, WR – Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4th)
Looking at my team, I realize that I have a need, a need for speed. And while a 4.52 unofficial 40 might not seem speedy, in the fourth round, it’s pretty good to me. Add to that his fourth-round capital and working alongside future Hall-of-Famer Tom Brady, and this pick feels like a future investment worth making. He might stay on my taxi squad all year, but I like the future potential of Tyler Johnson at this stage.
4.07 (Jordan) Isaiah Hodgins, WR – Detroit Lions (5th)
I was targeting former Minnesota WR Tyler Johnson here, but naturally, he gets selected one pick before my turn. With Hodgins landing in Detroit, the former Oregon State wide receiver is a decent consolation prize. Hodgins didn’t test extremely well at the NFL Combine, but he has some of the best hands in the draft and lands in an ideal situation for early-career playing time. Kenny Golladay is a superstar-in-the-making in Detroit, but the rest of the wide receivers on the roster are 30+ or JAG’s.
4.08 (Frosty) Lamical Perine, RB – Kansas City Chiefs (5th)
Based on the landing spot, I feel as though this is the steal of the draft. Many fans and analysts believe that the Chiefs will take a running back with an early selection, but in his mock, Driscoll did not have them taking one until the fifth round with Perine. This would probably indicate at least one more year with Damien Williams as the man in Kansas City, but Perine can buy his time in, arguably, the best offense of the NFL.
4.09 (Tommy) Devin Duvernay, WR – Las Vegas Raiders (3rd)
If I am going to miss on a flier, I am going to miss fast, and Devin Duvernay and his 4.39 speed are precisely that. I don’t believe he will be the Raiders’ WR1, especially after selecting Ruggs earlier, but he can find an instant role as a WR3/WR4 on what was arguably the worst pass-catching group of 2019. If he shows promise, his role can only go up and he’ll turn into a focal point in the slot for Derek Carr or whoever ends up playing QB in 2020.
4.10 (Corey) Brycen Hopkins, TE – Arizona Cardinals (4th)
The 2020 TE class is far from special, but sometimes, you can find a guy who surprises you. Hopkins has a solid athletic profile, he is a capable route runner, and he has the ability to separate from defenders. I think he could develop into a solid fantasy asset in a few years. Plus, the Cardinals’ TE room is severely lacking.
4.11 (Houtz) Anthony Gordon, QB – Eagles (4th)
Carson Wentz has durability issues, and I believe Anthony Gordon has the tools to potentially be a starting QB in the NFL. His skill-set fits nicely in Philadelphia, and if Wentz were to suffer another unfortunate injury, I think Gordon, coupled with Mims, could have boom-or-bust potential. And let’s be honest, he was also the best available QB at 4.11.
4.12 (Andrew) Deejay Dallas, RB – New York Jets (6th)
With the last pick in our mock draft, I can’t help but go back to the “J” well and grab Deejay Dallas. Yes, he’s behind Bell and Powell, at least, and yes, he’s on a Gase-run offense, but I think he has the potential to break out in the preseason (if they have it), and I might be able to move him for someone better who underperforms. Getting my third “J” player is just the icing on the cake.
