The Giants let Rome Odunze slip to the Bears at 9? And J.J. McCarthy to the Vikings at 11? That would make for some interesting reading on BBI. I guess if nothing else, Joe Schoen selecting Olumuyiwa Fashanu at 6 would not be the biggest vote of confidence in Evan Neal.
1) Chicago Bears (from CAR): Caleb Williams, QB, USC
2) Washington Commanders: Drake Maye, QB, North Carolina
3) New England Patriots: Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU
4) Arizona Cardinals: Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Ohio State
5) Los Angeles Chargers: Malik Nabers, WR, LSU
6) New York Giants: Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OT, Penn State
7) Tennessee Titans: Joe Alt, OT, Notre Dame
8) Atlanta Falcons: Dallas Turner, EDGE, Alabama
9) Chicago Bears: Rome Odunze, WR, Washington
10) New York Jets: Taliese Fuaga, OT, Oregon State
11) Minnesota Vikings: J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan
6) New York Giants: Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OT, Penn State
"Another team with a multitude of potential outcomes on Day 1, the New York Giants have offensive needs similar to those of the Chargers, but with the added caveat of a quarterback conundrum. Daniel Jones’ contract complicates a QB selection, but at least one PFN analyst has the franchise striking for a Michigan standout if available."
"Wide receiver is also a distinct possibility, but if the team wants to evaluate Jones fully for life beyond this year, protection is key. Olu Fashanu has quietly gone about his business in this class, becoming something of a forgotten man. Yet, he’s a legitimate OT1 contender, and it shouldn’t be a surprise to see his highly intelligent brand of tackle play be valued highly on April 25."
"Other players receiving consideration: Joe Alt, OT, Notre Dame; J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan; Malik Nabers, WR, LSU"
47) New York Giants (from SEA): Bo Nix, QB, Oregon
"The Giants have a major question mark at QB, and Bo Nix provides them with immediate competition for Daniel Jones. You can question whether this would be the high-upside move, but Jones was a swing for the fences while Nix feels a little more conventional. The value here is solid, and Nix has plenty of traits to like, but it feels like a middling upgrade over Jones at best."
70) New York Giants: Jonathon Brooks, RB, Texas
"This just makes a ton of sense for the Giants to add Jonathon Brooks with Saquon Barkley having left. Devin Singletary is a stop-gap, but Brooks could be the future in this offense. It is a perfect fit and a solid choice to fill it. It is so obvious that it has to happen, right?"
107) New York Giants; Javon Baker, WR, UCF
166) New York Giants (from CAR); Isaiah Davis, RB, South Dakota State
183) New York Giants; Tip Reiman, TE, Illinois

I don't think they are going in that direction in the first round however.
OL does seem like the wrong play at #6.
He might. I think he'll go in the first, but there is a recent history of QBs falling after being talked about in the first round. Willis and Levis are examples.
OL does seem like the wrong play at #6.
I just don't like picking a RT in the top 10.
If the Giants traded down? Different story.
