This is my ranking of the 2017 draft prospects I have reviewed so far. You can look up my summaries in the Archives listed to the left.
Where do the Giants draft this year? (Assuming we don't' sign a Qualifying Offer FA where this year.)
ReplyDeleteAlso, if I remember right, you (or maybe it was Wrenzie) thought a lot of Brian Reynolds last year and I know most of the talking-heads people (Law, etc.) thought he'd go late 1st round last year only to drop to the Giants at 59. So, with that said, what kind of high-quality prospect that might be rated higher than our pick do you think might fall to the Giants?
Also, thanks for the hard work. I appreciate it.
Giants are currently sitting with the 21'st overall pick. That could change if teams 11-20 sign any FA's with QO's and lose their pick. On the other hand, if the Giants were to sign a QO FA, they could drop out of the first round completely.
DeleteAs for who might drop to the Giants at #21. I would keep my eye on JB Bakauskas as teams may shy away from his relatively small size. He would be a bargain at #21 IMO. Also, JJ Schwarz could go #1 overall if he rebounds to a season like his freshman campaign. On the other hand, if his junior season is more like his sophomore season, I could see him falling and we know the Giants love to scoop up fallers like that.
I watched Bukauskas' highlight reels today. He has a real nasty slider. Made a lot of batter look really foolish. Needs to work on his FB control though.
