No. 20 – Jacksonville Jaguars - Kenneth Murray, linebacker: “Kenneth Murray is a 4.52 (40-yard dash) player, a really good leader, son of a preacher,” Klatt has previous said, via 710 AM Seattle. “He would fit in that culture. He’s best in the blitz and running down plays from the backside but I’m saying if you have pluggers and you have a guy like Kenneth Murray who can run really good (from) sideline to sideline, I think that that could be a good fit if you’re looking at the second level as well … If you can plug up front and keep those linebackers free, maybe Kenneth Murray is a good selection at the second level.”
The 2020 NFL Draft is April 23-25 televised on ABC/ESPN/NFL Networks.
