Leonard Huber asks: It seems to me that a seventh-round draft pick is usually pretty worthless. Very few seventh-round picks amount to much. So what about the Giants using their last pick this year (246, I believe) on Ben Sauls, a kicker from the University of Pittsburgh? Having a healthy kicker week in, week out, could produce a few more victories and less roster chaos. I favor this guy because he’s had plenty of opportunities to kick in cold winter weather, like we have in New Jersey.
Ed says: Leonard, unless the Giants are planning to cut Graham Gano to save salary cap space I don’t see the point of drafting a placekicker.
