Saquon adding to an already strong running game and a 4 additional recieving threats, the Giants have enough to have a balanced attack. If DJ has the goods, there is no excuse. I think he'll be successful.
The only thing that can trip up this attack is if the pass pro isn't good. For this reason, I hope they bolster the line.
IOL Creed Humphrey - Oklahoma
G Trey Smith - Tennessee
OL Jalen Mayfield - Michigan
G Ben Cleveland - Georgia
G Wyatt Davis - Ohio State
IOL Quinn Meiner - Wisconsin Whitewater
OL Brady Christensen - BYU
At least one of those guys will be there when we pick in the third round. Humphrey and Smith are the clear-best on the list, IMO.
Exactly what I'm referring to here. can get 2 of these guys possibly over the 3rd and 4th. Or if not the 4th, we can get Deonte Brown in the 4th. I think he could be great because he's like 370 lbs and acts as just a huge plug in the middle to stop the pass rush. Can't allow pass rush right up the middle anymore.
Brown offers NO mobility though. I mean he's not getting to the second level. Sure, he could block out the Sun and he's the epitome of the "Planet Theory" but I prefer my O-Linemen to at least have SOME athleticism and mobility.
2 reasons I think of Brown are 1) the Alabama connection, 2) because he's coming in as depth, not to start. If your starting guard on either side gets hurt and you have to go to the well, the main you think you want to make sure of is that they're not going to let pass rushers through every single play. I agree he isn't ideal for run blocking, but I just feel like when it comes to specifically DEPTH I think a high-floor on pass protection is more important than a high-floor on run blocking. We could also get him in the 5th, because I do think he's going to fall for the reasons you mentioned. There are worse things that can happen than getting a serviceable backup guard in the 5th.
DG loves the senior bowl and this guy played G & C there.
We've definitely been Senior Bowl heavy in our picks recently. Toney a Senior Bowl guy too. This is a great point.
I would love Meinerz but we still have like 15 picks to go. A lot of these "Best Available" guys we're looking at at this moment are going to be gone.
I'm sure a few come off the board, wouldn't be shocked if there's a little run at that position either but the Giants should have options there and at other positions. Teams have their own lists and priorities, so not every one of those 15 picks will be guys that the Giants would be targeting or guys on a fan board radar. We saw it in the trade down, Ojulari and JOK were both on the board when nobody would have faulted you for saying that both would be gone by then.
he got hurt trying to avoid contact on the edge and was twisted. People thinking he is going to save the day are crazy. NFL RB's that can take contact and keep going are not what he is. Sending him out as a receiver may be his best use.

Trask looks lime the actor theyd cast to play Tim Tebow in a hallmark movie where a simple country boy shows a busy city girl the meaning of Christmas.

anyone know the story behind that one? I found it sort of creepy
Probably just a joke

JonC was not in favor of him because of this.

Well Werner is gone, but I would go with Ossai as well. Save Olineman for next year.

In the 1st, yes thats a problem. In the 2nd, a different story if just ACL and Andrews gave the nod.
We might have stolen the draft with the first 2 picks plus the compensation for dropping down.
Daviyon Nixon
Paulson Adebo
I would have no problem if the Giants took Ossai in round 3. Ojulari helps but they could always use more pass rushers.
Same here. Ojulari’s knees concern me and he’s a light guy who might get overpowered by tackles. Still looking for the next Michael Strahan.

way too early for that label but I'd put them on my short-list of teams who should be damned good for the next 5 years.
AND: Just for Ghits and shiggles, can we trade EE and our 4th for a 2nd next year? That single 2nd rounder looks lonely.
Or Wyatt Davis
Milton Williams
Elijah Molden
Joseph Ossai
Andre Cisco
W davis
Ben cleveland
Dylan moses(prob wait til 4th)
My top 3
Yes. Or Davis, Smith or Kendrick Green
