Cowboys enjoy draft edge over Giants in one key area

ARLINGTON, Texas — Once again, the Giants will meet up with the Cowboys and get a reminder — and perhaps a smack in the mouth — what a team looks like when it truly builds around its offensive line.

The Giants tried to do it — since 2013, they selected Justin Pugh, Weston Richburg and Ereck Flowers in the first or second rounds of the draft — but they failed, as all three are no longer with the team. This is why the Giants go into Sunday’s season opener with only one home-grown product (Will Hernandez) among the five starters on their offensive line.
