9. Cedric Ogbuehi, OT (Texas A&M)

Ogbuehi is another player whose draft stock plummeted because of an injury. If it were not for his ACL tear in his last game with Texas A&M he would surely be a first round draft pick.

An ACL injury was once a death sentence to a football player, but in this day and age it does not ruin careers. Ogbuehi may start his NFL career at a disadvantage but 1st round talent doesn’t simply vanish.

If Ogbuehi is taken in the 2nd round, he could be a draft steal. Ogbuehi is a really strong pass protector. He has exceptional footwork and his high football IQ makes it hard for pass rushers to beat him by any method.

There is no doubting that the Giants need help on the offensive line. Ogbuehi could be a draft steal, and he can play any position other than center on the offensive line.
