Giants knocked it out of the park with win-now additions
I thought the Giants had far and away the best draft. Their first two picks -- running back Saquon Barkley, drafted second overall, and guard Will Hernandez, drafted at No. 34 overall -- were among the top-15-ranked players in the Hot 150 list I released before the draft, and they should both be instant starters. With Barkley, Hernandez and guard Nate Solder (who signed as a free agent) added to an offense that already included Odell Beckham, Sterling Shepard and Evan Engram, the Giants' offense looks so good, it should be illegal -- it should be just about unstoppable. Eli Manning -- who played much better in 2017 than New York's 3-13 record suggested -- will have much more success in 2018. This team looks capable of making the playoffs this year. As for the rest of the picks, edge rusher Lorenzo Carter (Round 3, No. 66) and defensive tackle B.J. Hill (Round 3, No. 69) will be starters for a long time to come, possibly beginning as early as 2018. And the Giants nabbed a developmental QB in Kyle Lauletta (Round 4, No. 108). You have to take your hat off to what this team did.
