It’s that time of year again. The NFL Combine is over and now colleges and universities will begin to host pro days to showcase their NFL Draft-eligible players.
On Friday, Auburn was conducting their pro day and New York Giants head coach Joe Judge was one of the many NFL coaches, scouts and executives in attendance.
We’re here at @AuburnFootball Pro Day, where Derrick Brown and Marlon Davidson are weighing in. #Giants HC Joe Judge and #Lions HC Matt Patricia have both checked in and so too have four GMs (#Lions, #Panthers, #Dolphins, #Patriots). Check out @nflnetwork for the latest…

Pretty sure next to Henderson is DC Patrick Graham, who is the only coach in America who doesn't wear team-issued gear at all times.
Also, Giants will have a bunch of coaches, scouts and executives at pro days over the next month. It's their job to attend. Don't over-analyze. https://t.co/naDO7FHoll

The Giants had been rumored to be enamored with Brown, who is slated to be an early first-round pick even after an extremely disappointing performance at the combine that showed him to be slow and lumbering. Many experts believe it won’t impact Brown’s draft status too much.
It would be a surprise if the Giants picked Brown at No. 4 overall considering they are essentially set on the interior defensive line and there will be several offensive linemen and/or linebacker Isaiah Simmons starring them in the face on draft day.
Last year, the Giants selected Auburn wide receiver Darius Slayton in the fifth round of the draft.
