G Cody Ford

CMicks3110 : 1/13/2019 7:38 pm
anyone watch him play for Oklahoma. Seems very similar to Will Hernandez in terms of strength and push. Probably more athletic with the ability to play tackle. I'd be totally in favor of trading down a few spots and grabbing him, sticking him at RG, next to perhaps Daryl Williams.
It would have to be in the late teens

The only offensive linemen I would take in the top 12 is Jonah Williams. Williams can play LT, RT, or G but he might thrive at guard. I like Ford a lot but using that early of a pick on a G is tough to swallow with all the other needs on the roster.
I think he could be a RT in the NFL

He has exceptionally long arms and is actually quite athletic for someone his size
I am hoping for a OL in round 2

It's possible that David Edwards or Dalton Risner will be available.

Greg Little might actually be a top-15 player for me. His game tape was up and down, but the guy clearly has better physical traits than someone like Jonah Williams does. Little is very much like Cam Robinson was a couple of years back.

Or Yodny Cajuste, who I'm also a big fan of. Edwards or Cajuste. Haven't seen much of Risner, but I know he's versatile.

Yes sir I forgot to mention Cajuste who would also be a good option. Scouts feel that Cajuste can also play guard. If the Giants did sign a good RT like Daryl Williams in FA then Cajuste can play guard for a year or two then shift over to LT when Solder is gone.
Almost have to go edge rusher in the 1st

take BPA O-line in round #2

While I wouldn't target specific positions I think there is a very good chance that this is how it will work out for the Giants.
edge rushers

Chances are good that Bosa, Ferrell, and Allen are off the board by Giants pick. May be choosing among Haskins, DL or OT.

Should be interesting but free agency will probably impact the decision

Montez Sweat could end up being a very real option come draft time. Dude is freakish in his own right and was very productive this season .
According to some scouts

there are some concerns about Jonah Williams, particularly his ability to hold up against NFL power. They think he may not weigh more than about 290 lbs.
I really like Greg Little as a LT prospect, Anak,  
yatqb : 1/14/2019 7:23 am : link
but at present his run blocking isn’t ideal for a RT. He really doesn’t move people too well. Great feet though.
This year's draft looks deep on DTs, edge rushers and OL  
BlueLou'sBack : 1/14/2019 7:37 am : link
all with mid-first to mid- second round grades. Ideally we can trade back and get an extra second in this year's and 2020's draft, and pick up a very good DT, OL, and edge rusher all in this draft - while accumulating an extra 2nd round slot in 2020.

Especially if Haskins goes before 6 as I suspect he will.
Or we can trade up for Haskins
