Out of players like Niko Lalos, Carter Coughlin, Tae Crowder, and Cam Brown I am very excited to see what he can do with more talented players like Ojulari and Elerson Smith.
RE: His skill set is perfect....he is speed rusher....
That's exactly what was missing. We are going to have good coverage. We are going to be tough to run against. Now we need to quicken that clock. I want to see our coverage hold for 6 seconds but the pass rush only needs 4.
I wanted him at 42 and when we traded to 50 I was very disappointed thinking no way he would be available to us at 50.
Still numb and in shock that 8 more teams passed on him (42-49). I wonder who we would have taken had he not been available? I can’t imagine I would have been as happy as I was and am with AO.
He is my favorite pick value wise cause he can do the one
from a pure pass rushing standpoint. Problem is that guy is a pure 3rd and long specialist for at least a couple years. Ojulari in college screamed decent, but not spectacular pro. There is a reason he fell as far as he did and it’s not purely medical. His medical issues are more along the line of his knee being degenerative which is a later career issue.
That being said our top end talent at edge is so suspect he’ll find himself in starting lineup. Great pick and even better we got some more picks in process.
The only problem....is if QB has too much to roam, extend play...and finally find an open WR.
With Carter (if he comes back to his potential) and Azeez....it will quicken the clock....which is exactly what they need
NY Post Azeez Ojulari Article - ( New Window )
is shades of Justin Tuck v San Diego.
“I was excited to see him there, to be honest with you,’’
and some scouts call AO the "best natural pass rusher in the draft"
I'm psyched to have this guy and getting him and a pick at 50 is beautiful.
And if Graham's is excited, why the heck shouldn't Giant fans be?

I can see him lined up all over IF he flashes well in camp and beats our OL'men.
