| 0:35.6 | Welcome back. It's the Big Blue Banter. New York Giants football podcast. I'm Dan Schneier. Joins those. My host, Nick Vallado. Tonight, we are here to recap day one for the Giants 2020s, second NFL draft and then provide our favorite picks and our favorite targets and explain why for day two of the Giants draft. And as it stands right now, Nick, |
| 0:54.9 | the Giants stayed at five and picked. They stayed at 10 and picked. And they are staying currently |
| 1:00.3 | at 37, though. We will discuss the option of trading back from 37 as well. There are always |
| 1:05.7 | opportunities to trade back at 37. Giants did it a few years ago in a similar range when he traded back twice and |
| 1:11.7 | ultimately took Wondell Robinson while acquiring more draft picks along the way. Now, as far as |
| 1:17.8 | today, it went, picks five and ten. The Giants are really convicted on these picks we learned in the |
| 1:23.9 | post draft. First of all, we learned it during the draft. The Giants wasted no time |
| 1:28.6 | when it came to drafting Arvel Reese, a number five overall. If you listen to the people who were at |
| 1:33.5 | the draft, they said the pick was in almost immediately when the Giants went on the clock at five. |
| 1:38.3 | Then even more immediately, when the Giants were on the clock at 10 after the ninth pick was made, |
| 1:43.6 | the pick was in, |
| 1:44.7 | Francis Mariano and Noah. Within seconds, similar to flashbacks to Dave Gettleman making his |
| 1:51.4 | picks. And ultimately, you can go against that. And I'm making the Barclay pick, I should say, |
| 1:55.5 | you can go against it and say it's not the greatest process. But when it comes to these players, |
| 2:00.0 | when you're as convicted as you are on your board, and after the draft, they told us that they got two of their five best players in the class. And then more specifically, they said Arvo Reese was their number one player rated in the class. That's also, by the way, Dame Brubler's number one player rated in the class, Arvel Reese. He was his number one overall player. When you're that convicted, I can't go against that, Nick, especially when you're drafting players at premium positions who impact the play game in the line of scrimmage. And in a lot of ways, they're two of the most physical players in the entire draft class. If you really look at it, would you argue that that these are two of the most physical players in the class? I feel like when I watched them on tape, they were two of the most physical players I watched in the entire class. Yeah, I think so. Absolutely. Especially when you're talking about like pound for pound for Arval Reese because he's like 240 right, a little bit more. But as John Harbaugh and Joe Shane said, moving him to off ball lineback, that's much different than just playing edge but you can go through his tape man he has really like surprisingly strong |
| 2:55.7 | edge tape when it comes to like he's one of the more physical 240 pound ed rushers I've ever |
