New York Giants Draft Day 3 Preview: 13 Best Remaining Prospects

The New York Giants still have some needs to fill in rounds 4, 5, and 6 on Day 3 of the 2016 NFL Draft: offensive line (right guard or right tackle), interior defensive line, inside linebacker, and running back. Let’s look at the best remaining prospects at those positions.

Big Blue found their complement to Odell Beckham, Jr. in Oklahoma Sooners wide receiver Sterling Shepard. The G-Men got a guy to compete for the starting free safety spot opposite strong safety Landon Collins in Boise State ball-hawk Darian Thompson. And, the Giants stunned a ton of people with their first pick, Ohio State corner Eli Apple, a potential shutdown cover corner who will most likely blanket the opposition’s #3 wideout. Apple gives the Giants possibly the best trio of corners in the league.

So, what’s left? According to the NFL.com draft tracker, it’s “Finding a boss man in the middle of the linebacker corps”. Of course, with the right side of the Giants offensive line still not as settled as everyone would like it to be, they could certainly add a body or two from the draft. And with Johnathan Hankins coming back from a torn pec and entering the final year of his contract, adding depth on the interior of the D-line is essential. Lastly, even though the Giants have four capable backs (though Orleans Darkwa fractured his leg), many project Jerry Reese to take one.

Here are the top remaining prospects in need positions that I think the Giants should seriously consider selecting…
