Dave:
The New York Giants have plenty of holes to look at filling with the twelfth pick, and the two names that I see here are Alabama linebacker C.J. Mosley and Michigan offensive lineman Taylor Lewan. When it comes down to it, the Giants have shown that linebacker is not a top priority for drafting (Eagles fans could relate until 2012), and you can never have too many offensive linemen with potential like Lewan.

Giorgos:
Taylor Lewan impressed at the scouting combine with his athleticism. Looking at the world from 6′ 7″ and weighing over 305lbs, Lewan is a mountain of a man. He has quick feet and enormous amounts of strength. Drafting an offensive lineman in the first round for a second straight season is not sexy, but the New York Giants saw their offensive line struggle throughout 2013. Lewan may not solve this problem from the beginning, but could be a starter for the next decade in New York.
