Almost everyone watching expected the New York Giants to select an offensive lineman or a defensive back with their final pick in the fifth round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
Instead, they selected RJ McIntosh, a defensive tackle out of the University of Miami.
The move was met with surprise and confusion for a few reasons. First, the Giants had already taken an athletic defensive tackle with their second pick in the third round. Secondly, the team was still badly in need of help and depth in both the offensive front and and defensive secondary.
