At No. 7 in the annual SB Nation NFL writers’ mock draft, I face an interesting choice for the New York Giants.
I got the offensive tackle the Giants have to have at No. 5, with the selection of Evan Neal. Here, it is time to address the defense.
There are two premium edge defenders — Travon Walker of Georgia and Jermaine Johnson II of Florida State — available. There are also two premium cornerbacks — Ahmad ‘Sauce’ Gardner of Cincinnati and Derek Stingley Jr. of LSU — available.
Traditional positional value would say ‘take the best pass rusher, stupid.
