"We have to draft this player because he can do A,B, C." "No, we should select that player because he can do X, Y, Z."
These are the debates that will be waged in front offices across the NFL in the coming days and weeks, up until commissioner Roger Goodell steps in front of the podium at Radio City Music Hall. In our "Make the Case" web series, we look at the selections provided by two NFL Draft Experts and their reasons why. Then we ask you, the fans, to weigh in on which player you would like the Giants to select if available at No. 12. Today's debate involves two defenders. In recent mock drafts on NFL.com, Matt Smith projected the Giants to select UCLA linebacker Anthony Barr, while Chase Goodbread had Oklahoma State cornerback Justin Gilbert. |
