Anything but oline let's gooo.

I would love DeSean, Kool-aid, Ennis, Bullard, Trotter Jr, or Jonathan Brooks

I think Dejean is listed as a corner I think he could be an elite safety, him or Nubin.

Prediction that almost always seems to come true on day 2- there will be players that drop to our slot that most of us think would be a no-brainer grab him pick and we will end up with some other dude or weird position that throws us for a loop.  :ok:

Nothing ... what is there to say ?

Nabers will never have lasted to the second and Mcconkley wasn't getting picked by anyone that early

It would just be a good pick by the Chargers

Multiple beat writers covered it but the talking Giants guys clarified that was the final offer and Wolfe accepted but Kraft declined after bringing in an outside consultant firm and that firm saying take the qb.

Remarkably, with the Giants 8 picks away from their 3rd Round selection, the value is STILL at WR and CB. There is a guy here or there at other positions (TE, RB, G) but they may have a a decent CB still sitting there in the 3rd.

CBS are going.  There should be a good RB available.  Would this be a spot where you would grab one?

Nubin was an excellent pick; probably the best and most versatile Safety in the Draft. Phillips is another Grade A pick at CB either inside or outside. 3 picks, 3 A grades. Well Done!

I think we lost our shot at the best Day 1 starting Guards.  Zinter was the last.  My guess is they like their FA signings.

Looks like DT and RB are their holes they may focus on.

I think they might be looking at TEs. They brought in Theo Johnson (the only TE) for a visit. They also brought in RB Trey Benson (the only RB), but he's gone. DT's have been picked clean except for Gabe Hall. We're on the clock tomorrow with the 6th pick, I expect it could be TE Theo Johnson or TE Cade Stover, DT3 Gabe Hall, or maybe one of the RBs Jaylen Wright, Braelen Allen, or Ray Davis  :-??

Cade Stover had the highest pass block rating of any TE in college...basically an extra offensive lineman. But we picked up two "block only" type TEs in FA, so probably won't happen. I think they like Theo, but your guess is as good as mine. Personally, if there is a RB they really like, they probably ought to get him because he won't be there in round 5...most likely

Personally, I'd be pretty happy with DT Mekki Wingo. He's undersized for DT3, but he's a ball of muscle who plays like the cartoon character, the Tasmanian Devil

I love Nubin, I am OK with Phillips (just wish he had hands). Not much 3T help left if we cannot get Wingo or Dorlus early day 3. Edge depth also not terrific. Several decent TE and RB fits still out there. Still some CBand WR help if we want to double-dip at high tariff positions. Only a handful of guards left with solid developmental potential. Not much at T.
