New York Giants
For all the grief we’ve all given Dave Gettleman in recent years, he looked like a genius with this class. Georgia’s Andrew Thomas is the most polished, pro-ready tackle in a loaded class, and Alabama safety Xavier McKinney could have easily been a top-25 pick.
UConn’s Matt Peart has tons of upside at offensive tackle, and the value got better for the Giants on Day 3. UCLA’s Darnay Holmes is a starting-caliber corner with big-play ability, Oregon’s Shane Lemieux is a mauler of a guard, and the rest of their Day 3 selections all have special teams ability with potential for more.
The rebuild took a big step forward with this draft, and I guess we’ll have top stop making fun of Gettleman for a while now.
