Okay we NOW know this:
#1 - Rams - Qb
#2 - Eagles - Qb
we will assume this:
#3 - Chargers - Cb Ramsey
#4 - Cowboys - DE Bosa
#5 - Jaguars - LB Jack
#6 - Ravens - OT Tunsil
#7 - 49ers - DE - Buckner
#8 - Browns - OT - Stanley
#9 - Bucs - OT - Conklin

Of the above picks, I am only confident in the first 6. 9ers are a wild card, and it all goes from there.

That being said, Giants need help. They spent the offseason working on the Def. Mainly the DL and DBs...but Linebacker is thin.

I can see one of four picks...and one may shock you...
First at OLB - you have Leonard Floyd Georgia, Darron Lee THE Ohio State
At ILB you have Reggie Ragland Alabama

OR

Ezekiel Elliot Rb THE Ohio State

Yes defense was an issue. But this offense could really use an every down back, a guy who can run, block and catch and give Eli some help. Add him in, to ODBJr and Cruz(if finally healthy) and you have a great offense to go with an improved defense. This draft is Defense heavy, taking a flyer on the best rb helps.

So I say Elliot

I will add, I can see teams trading up into this spot to maybe nab someone who has dropped, or Miami to move up to get the Rb.

Thoughts?

Though your top 10 makes sense, there are only 3 ball handlers in the group.

I think this number doubles on draft day.

no way, value in Wr and Rb is not there. Sorry, but this will be a lineman and def driven draft. With Qb in the first two slots

Coming at you
I think Elliott. Rare combination of runner, pass catcher and excellent blocker. Giants offense will be tough to defend.
