Might be early, but figured be helpful to have one spot to share info would be helpful.
Brugler in the Athletic (two rounds) has the Giants going with Wills at 4. He has 4 OTs going in top 11 (Thomas the third one) and 6 going in Round 1.
He has Biadasz sliding out of Round 2.
I am seeing some mocks having him go int he first/early second. I am hoping here is there when we pick in round 2. He would have an immediate impact on our OL.

He had OLB Baun going #28. I actually think Baun may have the most value, especially if we don't get an ER FA
He did a few days ago I believe. I honestly think they won't even address the Center position. Gettleman loves Halapio for some reason

Not convinced there is a a huge gap among the OT candidates.
The end.
On the flip side, I would love it if Gross-Matos fell to us in the 2nd round like he has.
Of course it's always fun to debate at any point who is getting drafted where - but no one has any clue at this point who is going where.

Of course you are right. This is just to keep BBI posters out of trouble and it's harmless fun.
My own hope is that at least one of the 'lesser' QBs wows the pants off people at Senior Bowl/Pro Day etc to put us in a better trade-down position.
The rankings will change.
This is the first mock I see him going that high. As he points out, his attraction is somewhat scheme based (but I think he'd be a fine WLB in a 4-3).
I would love to see him in Blue, esp if we trade down and have multiple picks.

and go back and look at the mock drafts from January of 2019 and then go look at the draft results from April.

I hear ya :)
I'll tell you what, I think you're going to get your wish come April.
I think that people are underestimating this year's QB crop and the amount of teams in need of a QB. I also think that the teams who are QB needy have the draft capital to make big move to get into the top 5.
If those QBs start shooting up every team's boards and DG has a chance to trade down for a king's ransom and doesn't do it- it would be a huge mistake.

He played exclusively RT because Alabama’s QB is Tua who throws left handed. Wills protected his blindside. Had Tua been a righty then Wills probably would have been at LT.
The best thing for the Giants is that Detroit falls in love with their guy at #3 and stays put and takes a non-QB. At that point, when the Giants are on the clock, and if that happens, I do believe there will be enough incentive for teams to make substantial offers to get Tua.
But Detroit would be foolish not to explore the same type of trade down scenarios. Tua can very well go at #3, lets all just cross our fingers and toes that he's on the board when the Giants are on the clock.

Detroit can explore but if they trade down there is a 50/50 chance the Giants grab the non qb they might have wanted. Giants might see a risk free scenario where they get something from the Dolphins and still get whoever they'd wanted at 4.
