What do the New York Giants want at No. 11 in the 2021 NFL Draft? Immediate production, that’s what.
Asked during a pre-draft videonconference on Thursday if he needed a player at No. 11 who would contribute immediate rather than one with long-term potential, general manager Dave Gettleman gave a simple answer:
“Yes. The Cliff note answer on it is yes,” Gettleman said. “It’s really hard to take a guy that at 11 that you’re betting on the potential.”
Gettleman compared the situation to what the NBA’s Boston Celtics did in 2019.
