Sy thought he'd be gone in the 2nd so hope springs eternal. Also, Perine if Asiata is gone.
I was disappointed that the Giants didn't take Asiata in the 3rd so if they were, by some miracle, able to get him in the 4th, I would feel better about the Webb pick, which I was't thrilled with. I would also be content with Perine.
We've drafted three players who are incredibly clean on and off the field and scored well on the Wonderlic and in interviews about how much they know the game.
Combining both high end ability and smarts.
I would not be disappointed seeing Jordan Evans drafted.
That's a good point. The Giants organization seems to have reoriented itself towards valuing character, work ethic and brains the last few seasons. Worth keeping in mind when the 2018 draft rolls around.
Perrine would be a great pick for us in fourth.
Butt would be icing but we really don't need it but he might be too good to passup.
Holden in 5th would be a good OT to get.
The human joystick is a KR , Cohen also back out of backfield.
A kicker would be nice
during these picks - "these guys probably don't know any more than me and I sure as hell don't know who to pick - WTF are they getting so hysterical for?"
I hate to say this but this Giants offensive line is BAD! I Don't see them doing as well this year, harder schedule then last year. Must draft at least one hopeful offensive lineman with one of the next four picks, prefer two but likely to get one. If the Giants don't improve their offensive line they will be lucky to go 8 and 8. Yes, improve and what they have now.
Well, did he play predominantly guard or center for the Utes?
My other question, now that other kid McDermott (UCLA),
is he that big LT? I would hope they go O Line in 4th.
Maybe RB in the 5th?
Off topic, I noticed James Conner went in the 3rd to the
Steelers, was kind of hoping he would be around day 3.
I was on his bandwagon, and I am pulling for that young man!
Relax. After failing to secure a first round talent with each day three pick, Jerry Reese will be forced to admit,"Gee, this drafting process isn't as easy as I
thought it would be."
I wonder if we see the Giants trade a later round pick for a veteran who can fill in for one year or so. That could be pretty much in any area of need (OL, DL, LB, RB). I'd be curious if they pull a trigger like that in the 5th or 6th round.
in golf is moving day. In football, its scouts day. The picks today will likely be made by the Giants scouts. Most day three picks fail, so Id like get a few extra to increase our chances. But Reese apparently does not trade down, and is now about 0 for 75. I dont know a single context where that is a good statistic. This team also has a lot of holes. We need an edge rusher, OL, a CB, and a RB.
Today is about finding players with upside. High ceiling, low floor players. That is the right approach. Reese has simply picked the wrong players. Adrian Robinson (JPP of TEs), Markus Kuhn, every OL (Whimper, Mosley, Brewer, Petrus, McCants, Herman), Geremy Davis, Cooper Taylor, Williams, Jackson, etc. Moore and Bromley were round three picks.
Kennard, Goodson, Perkins, Adams, and possibly Hart create hope, as do his UDFAs, including Lewis, Tye, and Adams. We have to hope that improvement continues.
Here are some players the Giants should target by position, with my favorites being Isaac Asiata, Dorian Johnson, Avery Moss, and Samson Ebukam.
RB: Samaje Perine, Brian Hill, Marlon Mack, Jamal Williams.
WR: Malachi Dupree, Chad Henson.
OT: Andreas Knappe, Joseph Dieugot Jermaine Eleumunor, Adam Bisnowaty, Julien Davenport,
Aviante Collins, and Collin Buchannon. The Giants will add a developmental OT, but it has to be somebody who has a chance to play LT.
G: Dorian Johnson, Isaac Asiata, Kareem Are.
DT: Grover Stewart, Rashaad Coward.
DE: Avery Moss.
LB: Carl Lawson, Samson Ebukam, Paul Magloire,
CB: Jeremy Cutrer, Brian Allen, Marquez White, Channing Stribling.
S: Tedric Thompson.
Let's get some good players. Hopefully, no "rouge" picks.
we are woefully thin at OT. We could use depth at DE and Corner. LBers have gotten better but no one stands up. Another RB would make sense.
I know they will find a couple of UDFA that will make the team
I unfortunately feel we wasted the 3rd pick....I sure hope I am wrong but lets make up for it today
Bucky Hodges
George Kittle
Jeremy Sprinkle
Jordan Leggett

As if anyone here but probably Sy, really has a clue about the players at the bottom of the draft.
Butt would be icing but we really don't need it but he might be too good to passup.
Holden in 5th would be a good OT to get.

RB Brian Hill in the 6th
Lacking any, (if so) a RB that can get to the edge DAMN QUICK-LIKE might help alleviate the weak run situation and lack of play action.
Quick I mean quick

Giants picked 11 spots lower in 4th round today as part of penalty for "walkie-talkie gate" game against Cowboys.

All BBI will rejoice.

Could have been worst, could have lost a pick TBH.
Thanks for the reminder, kind of forgot myself.
What would that take
BBI didn't pick the likes of Adriene Robinson and Mykelle Thompson.

I love the draft but this is the day I dread on BBI given the reactions to 4-7 round picks.
BBI didn't pick the likes of Adriene Robinson and Mykelle Thompson.
And I still don't like those picks

why does every controversial story thats related to breaking rules have to have the word "gate" at the end lol
Uconn tackle
Rounds 4 and 6
5 and 7 go Edge and CB
RB Samaje Perine of Oklahoma
RB Marlon Mack of South Florida
RB Jeremy McNichols of Boise State
I'm sure one of them will be there.
Keep an eye on OT Julie'n Davenport of Bucknell. A worthy project at OT.
