It was a rather low-key weekend for the Giants, who potentially held the keys to the draft with fourth-overall pick. Instead, Dave Gettleman played it safe and took the first tackle off the board, the plug-and-play Andrew Thomas. Solidifying the offensive line seemed like a clear goal for New York this year, as lineman were the only offensive players they drafted.
The Giants snagged possible Dallas target Xavier McKinney early in the second round. The standout Alabama safety is set join Jabrill Peppers in the back of their secondary, which ranked 31st last season in pass defense DVOA.
