4 NY Giants targets for fans to watch at the 2024 Senior Bowl

3. Washington QB Michael Penix Jr.

Penix is another quarterback in a very similar situation to Nix. Penix was sensational at Washington during his time there. Schoen will take a hard look at Penix leading up to the draft and time will tell if he ends up with Big Blue in April. Penix will be another player fighting for a positional ranking. Penix has an injury history, including two torn ACLs at Indiana.

However, the kid is a fighter, has a great demeanor about him and he puts up numbers. Another big factor for Schoen to consider if he wants to draft Penix is the fact that he is lefty. The factor doesn't directly have to do with him, but more so the fact that with Penix being a lefty, his blindside protector would be Evan Neal.

The Giants can't afford to try and switch franchise left tackle Andrew Thomas to the right side. Schoen has stated he doesn't want to give up on Neal as the right tackle of the future, but Neal's performance hasn't exactly left anyone confident of that. While we hold out hope of him turning it around after a dismal first two years, Penix would be in a tough spot if drafted by the Giants. Still, Giants fans should give Penix a good look. If he's available in the second round or later, the Giants could consider him.

UPDATE: It has since been announced that Penix has decided not to play in Saturday's game. Next up, Schoe and Co. will be able to watch him at the NFL Combine.
