New York Giants make pair of unexpected selections in latest FOX Sports mock
In the final mock draft from FOX Sports' Joel Klatt, the New York Giants make a pair of unexpected selections in Round 1.
Mock draft season is thankfully almost over as the real NFL draft descends upon us this week in Pittsburgh. Experts have mocked a dozen players to the New York Giants the past few months, from linebackers and safeties to offensive linemen and running backs. Few, however, predict the Giants will select a pass rusher with the fifth overall pick.
That is, before they traded away defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence this past weekend to the Cincinnati Bengals for the tenth overall selection. With two high picks in their pockets, the Giants can afford to grab the best available player and a player at a position of need. FOX Sports' top college football analyst, Joel Klatt, published his final mock draft on Monday, and this is what he sees the Giants doing in Round 1 .
Are the Giants trying to package their two top-10 picks to move further up? I don't know about that. But I do know they love one of these offensive players in this draft.
I think they're moving around and trying to position themselves into a place where they can target and draft Jordyn Tyson. I don't think they'll need to draft him at No. 5, though.
