The surprised a lot of NFL fans when they decided to hire Joe Douglas as general manager after the conclusion of the 2019 NFL Draft. Due to the timeline for when they hired Douglas, the 2020 NFL offseason was his first fair chance to put his stamp on building a roster around quarterback . Unlike his predece sor, Douglas prioritized the offensive line and protecting Darnold first. His quantity over quality approach in free agency seemed odd, but given how weak the top of the free-agent offensive line cla s was, it made perfect sense. In the 2020 NFL Draft, he didn't hesitate to use his first pick on  DaQuan Jeffries Jersey offensive tackle .
