...just want to throw out an opinion that we could do a lot worse than selecting Charles Harris at #23!
I say that even though the Giants are fairly desperate to fix an offensive line beginning with their Left Tackle, who has become a big-time problem, with no clear view of what to do with him. Add to that a Center who was up-and-down in 2016; a nicked-up Left Guard... and blah, blah, blah, you get the idea.
So, why Charles Harris at 23?
I saw 4 Missouri games over the past two years and here's my amateur appraisal:
1) This guy is a non-stop, thick set end who doesn't quit. Have no idea how fast he is, but he looks like he knows the snap count and gets out of the blocks like a sprinter;
2) Multiply his first 3-step speed with his size and you've got a brute force problem on your hands;
3) He attacks with great leverage and uses his hands like a Kung fu Master;
4) Fantastic body control to make himself small darting around and under Left Tackles.
I loved our defense last year, and the amazing strides it took in restoring pride and respectability. But whether JPP stays or goes... doesn't matter. We need more pass rushing capability on this roster. Charles Harris is ready-made in my opinion.
Lawson and Harris aren't in the same stratosphere as JPP.
Exactly. Mind boggling to me that people want to throw huge $$ at 2 DEs.
They play a 3-4.
