NFL Draft results: Giants select Minnesota LB Carter Coughlin in Round 7, 218th overall

The New York Giants have selected Minnesota linebacker Carter Coughlin in Round 7 of the 2020 NFL Draft, 218th overall. The Giants have three more selections in Round 7.

In his 2020 Draft Guide, Dane Brugler of The Athletic said:

He rarely took himself off the field and was Mr. Reliable for the Gophers’ defense, finishing his career third in school history in sacks (22.5) and fourth in tackles for loss (40.0). Coughlin competes with the upfield urgency and active play style that stressed blockers at the college level and led to several hustle plays.
