At least three different post-combine mock drafts from national draft analysts sent Baylor receiver Denzel Mims to the Green Bay Packers at No. 30 overall in the 2020 draft.

Mims, one of the stars of the NFL Scouting Combine, is quickly becoming a favorite pick for the Packers, who desperately need speed and playmaking ability at the receiver position.

Daniel Jeremiah of NFL.com, Mike Renner of Pro Football Focus and Trevor Sikkema of The Draft Network all had the Packers taking Mims in the first round of their post-combine mocks.

From Jeremiah: “Mims has helped himself as much as any player in the draft during the spring, between his awesome Senior Bowl and outstanding combine.”

From Renner: “It’s difficult to see Mims escaping the first round after putting up the most complete Combine of any receiver in attendance. His 4.38 40, 38.5-inch vertical, 10-foot-11 broad and, especially, 6.66 three-cone were all scintillating numbers for a 6-foot-3, 207-pound wideout. That explosion and catch radius is something the Packers are sorely lacking.”

From Sikkema: “Denzel Mims’ week reminded me a lot of Chris Godwin’s. Godwin was already seen as a good prospect coming into the combine, but he put up athletic numbers that raised his ceiling even higher than even his biggest fans originally thought. That’s what happened with Mims. His 4.38-second 40-yard dash, 10-foot 11-inch broad jump and 6.66-second 3-cone drill were all above the 90th percentile for his position.”

Mims (6-3, 207) ran the 40-yard dash in 4.39 seconds, hit 38.5″ in the vertical leap and 10-11 in the broad jump, finished the three-cone drill in 6.66 seconds and put up 16 reps on the 225-pound bench press.

His Relative Athletic Score was 9.78 out of a possible 10. He received an Athleticism Score of 99 from Next Gen Stats. His overall Sparq score was in the 95th percentile of all NFL receivers. In every possible way, Mims tested like an elite athlete.

As noted by Jeremiah, Mims was a standout at the Senior Bowl and had three years of terrific production in Waco.

Mims caught 186 passes for 2,925 yards and 28 touchdowns at Baylor. He caught at least eight touchdowns in each of his last three seasons, including a career-high 12 in 2019. He went over 1,000 receiving yards twice, once in 2017 and again in 2019. According to PFF, Mims had more contested catches than any other collegiate receiver between 2017-19.
