ERIC EDHOLM: Welcome again to Yahoo Sports. I'm Eric Edholm. Day two of the 2020 NFL draft is in the books, and I'm here to give you some teams that fared pretty darn well, in my opinion, and others that left us with some questions.

Let's start with the Ravens. I thought they got off to a great start with the Patrick Queen pick on Thursday night, and they followed it up with a banner Friday. JK Dobbins, a great value pick in round two, and then three inspiring picks in round three, Justin Madubuike, Devin Duvernay out of Texas, and Malik Harrison. Two on offense, two on defense. Love the symmetry there. Thought they got great value.

Dallas Cowboys didn't have as many picks. They got CeeDee Lamb Thursday night, but came back with two strong [? needs ?] and two great values too, Trevon Diggs Alabama, Neville Gallimore in round three. I didn't [? love him ?] as much as some other people, but I thought he was really nice there with the 82nd pick.

Now, two teams I'm scratching my head over. The first one is the Green Bay Packers. Certainly the Jordan Love pick got everybody talking on Thursday night. And then they followed up with two more head scratchers.

We're talking about AJ Dillon, really interesting power runner, but was he great value in round two? Round three Josiah Deguara. Kind of a Danny Vitale type. I didn't think he was worth a top 100 pick, even though I like the player.

And what about the Philadelphia Eagles? Talk about shocking quarterback picks here.

Jalen Hurts at number 53. Could I have seen him go that early? Yes, but not to Philly with Carson Wentz there. How are they going to use him? Is it a referendum on Wentz? We can't wait to find out what that means.

They also came back with Davion Taylor, a very fast linebacker, but a player who I think needs a little bit more seasoning. Came from a track background, didn't play much in high school. He's not ready to perform right away.

Those are the teams I liked and didn't like here in day two of the NFL draft. Stay tuned to Yahoo Sports for all the draft coverage as we finish up in 2020.
