The flurry of exercise within the NFL this week has shaken up the order for the 2022 NFL draft. The New York Giants have the fifth and seventh picks in mentioned draft and at one time sure gamers have been considered lengthy gone by the point they have been on the clock.
Not so anymore.
Draft Wire’s Luke Easterling maps out how he sees the primary spherical of the draft enjoying out and it advantages the Giants, who land offensive sort out Evan Neal at No. 5 total.
5. New York Giants | Alabama OT Evan Neal
You may make an argument that Neal needs to be the primary decide on this draft and also you wouldn’t get a lot resistance. A freak of an athlete at 6’7″ 1/2 and 337 kilos, Neal would come proper in begin at both left or proper sort out for the Giants. The Giants’ offensive line would now not be a legal responsibility. A godsend of a decide right here.
With their second decide of the primary spherical, the Giants land one other Day 1 starter. Nevertheless, this choice might include a bit criticism given what remained on the board.
7. New York Giants (from CHI) | Florida State EDGE Jermaine Johnson II
Some would foyer for Georgia’s Travon Walker on this spot and I don’t have a problem with that, however they need to take one other take a look at Johnson’s tape. The 6-foot-5, 265 pounder had gotten misplaced as a result of his switch from Georgia to Florida State and his generic identify hasn’t helped. Make no mistake, this child is a harmful defender who offensive coordinators must account for.
Briefly, the Giants get two huge our bodies, one on both sides of the ball, and eventually give themselves an opportunity to compete.
