5 NY Giants targets Joe Schoen must avoid with the No. 6 overall pick
3. TE Brock Bowers, Georgia
Unlike the previous two players mentioned, this has almost nothing to do with Brock Bowers' abilities on the football field. In this draft, there may not be a more guaranteed star than him. Despite this, the Giants have far too many holes on both sides of the ball to take a tight end with the No. 6 overall pick. This isn't even because they already have Darren Waller, as releasing Waller to create cap and drafting Bowers could improve the Giants' offense a good bit, but taking him so high just isn't the move.
Through 10 games this season, Bowers caught 56 passes for 717 yards and six touchdowns for a dominant Georgia team. Averaging 71 yards per game as a tight end in college is pretty damn impressive and to make things even better, Bowers is a solid blocking threat as well.
Bowers is an incredible talent, but he isn't in a position of need for the Giants. Selecting a tackle, receiver, quarterback, or even edge-rusher would be the smarter move considering the issues facing the roster.
