Here's a mock that has Hutchinson going first overall...

Great player. High ceiling high floor. No risk that I can see.

If the Giants are gonna select an ER and a safety with back to back picks inside the top 10, I'd take take the safety first!

Yesterday a mock had the Pitt QB going to us at 7. In this one he’s not even in the top 10. Mocks don’t really begin to stabilize until late March-early April. Before that it’s mostly a crapshoot. I mean Trey Lance is a great example. I’m not sure any of us on this board knew anything about him on 12/2/20. Then he’s a top 5 pick.

…I’d sign off on that!

But, it’s early.

At this point I think he has. But I’m not an expert and it’s hard to tell. Kid looks like the cousin of a Bosa or Watt though.

in round 1. they just can't

I don't want them reaching for one either. That's how Ereck Flowers happened.

I feel the same way. But what if the value just isn’t there.

there are lots of first round OL this year. maneuver the draft. or sit tight and take an all-pro C from iowa. he is very bit worth a top 10 pick

That's aggressive.

If Devin Lloyd drops to #40 I will be stunned. He's a top 10-15 talent.

I would break a few remotes taking Karlaftis that high. And taking a S in the lottery would be insane...

Those 2 players but if the draft sets up like this then the giants are screwed with getting a good OL in the draft.

Having mock drafts when no one knows the order yet and who’s declaring to come out as an underclassman.

I'm gonna hold out on the notion That NFL scouts know a little bit more than BBI knows about the quality of the OL talent in the draft.

No choice.

The team needs to address both OL and ER with the two first round picks, and another OL in round 2. These positions have been weaknesses for too many years running and need to finally be addressed. As it stands right, the team only has one reliable O-lineman. Supposedly, this is a deep draft class for teams seeking to build up the trenches, there is no excuse for the Giants to once again kick the can down the road.

Especially since Detroit will have the first pick.

In that order

They have the Jets trading their 2nd pick to the Rams. What exactly can the Rams offer in a trade to get a top 5 pick.

Jalen Ramsey or Aaron Donald?

2 years ago at this time Andrew Thomas was head and shoulders above the rest of the tackles and we didn't even think he'd be available. fast forward to draft day everyone is weary of the pick and guys are arguing about it lol

.

Might move down almost to #20, but they will want a 2nd rd as compensation.

Jets situation with Lawson means that unless they are convinced of super-stardom, they will pass on Edge in 1st rd and pick a developmental type with later #1 or even 2nd rd.

Jets actually have a decent roster except at TE, and 2022 is all Zack Wilson and the OC. Develop or bust.

It's never too early.

I could see the Giants talking themselves into taking one of the QBs, especially Corral and Pickett. I hope they don't.

and it's not what I would like to see, but it's not crazy. BPA makes sense in the top 10. You don't pass on a blue-chip prospect for a red chip at a position of need.

I agree with GK being selected that high, I’d rather Drake from USC rather GK. Hamilton is a rare player that is worth that high of a draft pick imo
