Talent level between pick 5 and 12.

DonnieD89 : 1/9/2022 12:36 pm
I just wanted to get opinions on the talent level in this range. To me, I don’t see that huge of a drop off. A Chicago loss would be very helpful, but how much of a big difference will it make? Can we still find what we need and want? Looking for thoughts.
Big difference in chances of hitting on the fifth pick than the 12th

I totally agree there, they need to really hit the first pick, I guess my question was more alluded to the second pick.
They will trade away one of their first round picks...

IMO a few things

1) The draft position gives you the ability to pick your guys vs whoever is left
2) #1 doesn't matter if you draft poorly
3) BPA vs Need is a bunch of shit.. You pick the best player available at a position of need. Thats how you build great a great team.

I feel that a Dallas 12 pick is of more value than Giants 5 pick.
Lots of excellent players in the top 12!

Who is left when we pick may not match up with our biggest needs or positional value, but cases can be made for 4 OL, 3 Edge, 3 DBs, 2 ILBs, 3WRs, 2QBs and a DL. That’s 18 players.

We all have our preferences but a new GM should have plenty of good options wherever we pick, with or without a trade down.

That Chicago pick, if 7 or 8. Would definitely give more wiggle room for a trade back, if the talent leve is not that big of a drop off.
As long as the Giants have a good football mind picking

and Mara does not overule and screw it up
And Kyle Hamilton wouldn’t be a good pick
