New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen finished off the team’s 2022 NFL Draft, his first as a GM, by selecting Cincinnati linebacker Darrian Beavers in Round 6, 182nd overall.
The Giants selected Indiana linebacker Micah McFadden in Round 5, 146th overall.
If Dane Brugler of The Athletic, who had a third/fourth-round grade on Beavers in his draft guide, is right then the Giants got excellent value here. Brugler writes:
Beavers is a big, physical defender with NFL-ready discipline and diagnose skills that will endear him to coaches. Although he has versatile experience, the term “Jack of all trades, master of none” comes to mind while watching his hybrid skill set.
