Denzel Mims: 17 Percent

Denzel Mims comes in as the third most likely player for the Saints to draft in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft.

Mims, a 6-foot-3 207 pound wideout from Baylor, is hands down one of my favorite prospects in the 2020 NFL Draft. He has an insane catch radius and is a red zone threat every time down the field.

Mims shined in the 2020 NFL Combine.

He ran the forty-yard dash in 4.38 seconds, had a 4.43 twenty yard shuttle, and ran the three-cone drill in 6.66 seconds. He also banged out 16 bench press reps and leaped 38.5 inches in the vertical jump. He also had a broad jump of 131 inches.

Mims had a great college career logging 186 receptions for 2,925 yards and 28 touchdowns.

The Saints could use some young talent to team up with Michael Thomas and newly acquired Emmanuel Sanders. Who better to bring in than Denzel Mims? Mims is a tall, athletic, and ridiculously fast wide receiver and would likely be a top-three receiver in normal drafts.
