Todd McShay's latest ESPN mock draft focuses on a linebacker

Where are the New Orleans Saints going to try and upgrade during the 2020 NFL Draft? Their list of roster needs has been whittled down through free agency, thanks to the addition of veterans like safety Malcolm Jenkins and wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders. But the Saints were also able to retain plenty of their own pending free agents, keeping together a core that’s won 26 of their last 32 regular season games.

One position that could use help is linebacker. Demario Davis is a first-team All-Pro, but he’s surrounded by multiple projected starters returning from season-ending injuries. Adding a young, high-upside prospect who can reliably start next to him would be huge.
