#5 – DE Avery Moss (Fifth-Round, Pick No. 167)
The Giants were tied for the fewest team sacks in the NFL prior to Thursday’s game against the Washington Redskins. But even a season-high six sacks against their NFC East rival wasn’t enough to get the win. Big Blue’s starting defensive ends Jason Pierre-Paul and Olivier Vernon have struggled to stay consistent this season, and adding a pass rusher in the 2017 draft was a smart move given the team’s play this season.
Moss has played in eight games and has started in two for the G-Men in his rookie year. The 6-foot-3, 271-pound defensive end has recorded 13 tackles and one forced fumble. Moss is still a work in progress, but he could prove to be Reese’s best value pick from the 2017 class over time.
