5 takeaways from Mel Kiper’s 2020 Big Board

Ohio State’s Chase Young is the big prize at edge rusher
The NFL loves pass rushers, and the 2020 NFL draft will offer another group of first-round worthy prospects who can challenge for top-five status.
The title of best-in-class right now belongs to Young, who’s been crowned the next in line at Ohio State to follow the footsteps of Joey and Nick Bosa as elite pass-rushers. There’s no reason to doubt that projection.
Young had a fantastic 2018 season when he finished with 9.5 sacks and 14.5 tackles for loss, a stat line that feels like an appetizer for the main course he’ll deliver in 2019.
