Central Michigan held its pro day on Tuesday and 11 NFL teams had scouts or coaches in attendance. Among them were the New York Giants, who sent offensive line coach Bobby Johnson to oversee the event.

While there, Johnson and the other O-line coaches got close looks at Bernhard Raimann and Luke Goedeke.

Although the Giants have spent what few resources they had this offseason on linemen, they are still likely to address that area of concern in the 2022 NFL draft. That will come via a first-round tackle and then depth later on.

Here’s what NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein had to say about Raimann, who drew a pro comparison of Sebastian Vollmer.

With alluring athleticism and an impressive skill set, Raimann is just scratching the surface of his potential. His initial transition from tight end to left tackle occurred in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic, making his rapid transformation fairly remarkable. He is a much better technician than he should be at this stage, but his approach is also mechanical and he could struggle against sophisticated edge defenders until he learns to diversify his pass sets and hand usage. Raimann’s instincts and fundamentals at the position are still in a developmental phase so bumps in the road are expected, but his best football is ahead of him and he should become a long-time starter at left tackle.

Raimann is widely mocked to go in the second round, but some mocks have seen him go anywhere from Round 1 to Round 4. However, his stock is steadily rising.

Meanwhile, here’s what Zierlein had to say about Goedeke, who drew a pro comparison to Connor McGovern.

Tight end turned tackle whose final landing spot could be at guard due to a lack of necessary length. Goedeke is a rancorous run blocker with a talent for rooting opponents off the spot. He balances a surly field demeanor with above-average technique and frequently sustains and finishes the block like an NFL veteran. He has put the time in to build out his frame but shorter arms will offer matchup challenges from time to time. Goedeke had a strong 2021 season against modest competition, but his strengths profile well as a good starter with the ability to make an impact sooner rather than later.

Goedeke has been mocked as high as Round 3 but as low as Round 7. He was considered an undrafted free agent-like talent as recently as December but like Raimann, his stock has risen considerably.
