The New York Giants passed on an heir apparent to two-time Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning and took a running back that many think is the best to come out of college in decade.
Dave Gettleman has learned many lessons as an NFL executive. The new general manager of the New York Giants has one mantra in the draft room.
Manning's admission comes even with the possibility of the New York Giants using the No. 2 overall pick to take an heir apparent to the two-time Super Bowl MVP.
The questions about tackle Ereck Flowers' future with the Giants are increasing as the 2015 first-round draft pick was a no-show for the team's first voluntary minicamp under new coach Pat Shurmur.
Flowers has struggled badly in pass protection, and last year there were reportedly problems with effort and attitude in the locker room.
It's draft season which means we're reading too deeply into things that top prospects say about their potential future employers.
The N.Y. Giants have opened their first organized team activities under coach Pat Shurmur with receiver Odell Beckham Jr. in the building.
It will be a who's who of top college prospects visiting the Giants' practice facility next week.
The Giants have said over and over they are not shopping Odell Beckham Jr. But that doesn't mean they don't have a wish list should they decide to trade the disgruntled superstar wide receiver.
Giants coach Pat Shurmur says he expects Odell Beckham Jr. to attend offseason workouts when they start in April.
Odell Beckham Jr. isn't on the trade market. He isn't untouchable, either.
What the Giants end up doing with the No. 2 pick in the draft now is anyone's guess.
One of the top quarterbacks available in this year's NFL Draft put on a show Wednesday, perhaps complicating the Giants' plans for the number 2 overall pick.
The Giants announced the moves Monday with the newcomers being receiver Cody Latimer, defensive end Josh Mauro and cornerback B.W. Webb.
The 29-year-old Solder was considered the top offensive lineman available in free agency. He will be the NFL's highest-paid lineman.
