NFL mock draft picks 1-11 to kick off the new year!
By Brian Miller
New York Giants – RB – Saquon Barkley
Something has changed with the Giants and it is hard to put a finger on it. The G-men entered the off-season in need of a quarterback to replace Eli Manning but most mock drafts now have the Giants looking for something else as it appears they want to make a final move forward with Manning.
There are plenty of quarterbacks in this draft and maybe the Giants value one of the mid-round quarterbacks more than the first round value. Barkley would improve the Giants offense without question and he does fill a need. Is it the smart move to make?
New York is also going to listen to trade offers but any team wanting to move up to the number two spot is going to pay a hefty premium so it might be better to wait and trade up with someone else.
