Say that the Giants take one of Darnold, Barkley, or Rosen at #2 and you have on day two one of RB Sony Michel, CB Isaiah Oliver, OG Will Hernandez, and Edge Rusher Sam Hubbard sitting there at #34, Who do you take? I find these types of scenarios evident when I am playing firstpick.com. Fome, I always pick Will Hernandez; however, I always think should I take Isaiah Oliver. I also think where are the edge rushers after the first round. What are your choices?
I always tend to add top Oline and/or CB/S picks in this range.
O-Line takes priority and he represents value at that spot.
While many think he will be picked in the first due to his combine, I suspect that scouts will hold the level of competition against him at El Paso making him available at the top of the second.
This draft is deep in red-chip prospects overall ,some good CBs, AND in plug and play OL for there not to be any left by the time we get to 34.
6 CBs who should be effective or better year 1:
Isaiah Oliver
Denzel Ward
Mike Hughes
Carlton Davis
Joshua Jackson
Jaire Alexander
1 of these guys SHOULD make 34. Not likely round 3 though.
[u]12 OL Guys who should be plug and play (year 1):
Nelson
McGlinchey
Conor Williams
Isaiah Wynn
Will Hernandez
Billy Price
James Daniels
Frank Ragnow
Braden Smith
Kolton Miller
Austin Corbett
Tyrell Crosby
Will ALL be gone by 34? I highly,highly doubt it. At least 4-5 of this group should be there at 34. Could all these guys be gone by our top of 3 pick? Possible, or 1 or 2 may slip through.
9 Guys who COULD play effectively year 1 (or may need a year of development):
Martinas Rankins
Orlando Brown( yes I still think he has a chance to be a decent OL despite the terrible combine)
Brian O'Neill (but probably needs a year of development)
Alex Cappa
Geron Christian
Desmond Harrison
Mason Cole
Brandon Parker
Skyler Phillips
Half or more of these guys WILL be available round 3. And with Gettlemans eye for OL talent ,he likely will pluck a good one that may be able to start right away.
...second round with the 34th pick.
No questions asked.
Eli needs a brand spanking new wall around him that will calm his nerves.

I wouldn't consider another RB if we took Barkley
If we don't take Barley Guice or Nick Chub I have little faith in what we have at RB right now . There are some good backs coming out we need one !
Gallman is Ok but we need better quality than Wayne .
Really, really like Oliver. Now if we accumulate picks itd be easy to pull this off and still get good OL.
However there should still be good OL at the top of the 3rd.
Prospects NYG may like rd 2 who aren't getting much buzz around here

Martinas Rankin and Austin Corbett are two guys NFL people like better than most draftniks.
