Draftniks O-line in this draft?

Lots of talk about it. It seems to me that if we trade back we may end up with several picks in rounds two and three. These are names I am hearing good things about. We could get two or even three of them. Sign Solder and possibly Norwell and we have a solid OL? What do you all think?

Wyatt Teller is a guard I like in round 3 or later

He is pancake machine in the run game, and only gave up 4 total pressures all of last season. He can put some more muscle on his frame. Former defensive player, that plays guard with mean streak.

His downside is that he has ADHD. He had a ton of penalties his Junior year (He admitted to being off of his ADHD meds during games). This past season he played on half the ADHD meds he is normally prescribed, and wasn't nearly as penalized. Scouts were higher on him as a Junior then after this past season because they felt he wasn't the same player as the year before.

I think trading down if . . . .

the Giants don't believe any of the QB's are worth the #2 pick to stock up in the trenches is a potentially useful strategy. But not just the OL, there are some very appealing prospects on the DL also.

Won't happen, but wouldn't this place be entertaining if the Giants took Nelson or Brown at #2? But I expect the pick to be a QB if any are rated high enough.

Thanks it seems like there are a lot of well regarded interior OL in this draft. There are also a bunch of solid DT players. We could really stock the trenches if we accumulate some picks.
