I know that's not your point, but it is mine. They traded up to get their franchise QB, that's much different. They also stackes their lines. They did not add an elite RB to take them over the top. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Re: 2018 Mock Drafts
very true, I do think we def need a Guard and a Center to solidify that line. Hope we get most of our holes filled this OS

Re: 2018 Mock Drafts
The Giants are in a great spot to trade down IMO, yes they could take Barkley but they could load up on picks, look how many teams want a QB.

I think Nelson could elevate our OL to elite status. He'd be playing next to an All-Pro OT on one side and, I believe, an up and coming young C who should make great strides this coming season. Even pedestrian RB's should be able to gain decent yardage running behind that OL. |

Re: 2018 Mock Drafts
If Barkley, Nelson, or Fitzpatrick is available you giggle all the way up to the podium and add a top 5 player at 13.

Re: 2018 Mock Drafts
Here's what Mike Mayock had to say about Vita Vea:
"He is a dancing bear. He's a freak,” Mayock said. “He's 340 pounds, and everybody says he's going to run a sub 5.40. The last defensive lineman to do that was Dontari Poe, and I think he went at No. 11. And Vea is a better player than Poe was coming out of college, more advanced. He's a plug-and-play nose tackle in any scheme. If he runs 4.85 or 4.9 at 342 pounds, to me that's more impressive than watching John Ross run a 4.” |

Re: 2018 Mock Drafts
Drafting Barkley or any RB or WR with our first round pick would be the definition of the expressions putting "the cart before the horse".
Excellent lineman are very expensive in FA and should be a priority in the draft. It is looking like several teams drafting ahead of us at 13 will be reaching for QB's. There are a ton of QB needy teams desperate to reach for a QB early in the draft. That benefits us greatly. “As far as interior offensive line class, the top end of it’s really good," Mayock said in a conference call on Monday. OG Notre Dame’s Quenton Nelson is a instant starter and star. OSU center/guard Billy Price is a rock. Aubrun OG Braden Smith and UTEP OG Will Hernandez are strong. There is a huge drop off in talent after these guys. We must get one of them. They will not be there when we pick in the second round. Getting a second tier guard in the free agency is getting another Shawn Lauvao. I do not want that. |

That said, Id take Barkley over Hernandez, Price, or Smith. Nelson, Barkley, and Vea are elite IMO. You don't turn down elite for excellent even at a hard to find position. Edit: I've also heard a lot of good things about Isaiah Wynn and Wyatt Teller. I need to watch done of Teller because I've seen him ranked much lower than these guys. Point being, I think you can get a good starting G in rounds 2 and 3 of this draft, but to your point, Nelson is head and shoulders above Teir 2. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
