If the New York Giants still have designs on being a power-running team, Kinnard has the size and strength to be an anchor along the interior.

At 6-foot-5 and 344 pounds, Kinnard has the size and experience at offensive tackle to make him a versatile option along New York’s offensive line. His versatility could also make him a nice fit in the screen game.

This past season, Kinnard produced an 85 grade in both run-blocking and pass protection, from Pro Football Focus. That’s the kind of production and consistency along the offensive line that the New York Giants have largely lacked for decades. And he had that dominant season in the SEC.
