After getting their Hog Molly, Will Hernandez, in the second-round, the New York Giants selected Georgia outside linebacker Lorenzo Carter and N.C. State defensive lineman B.J. Hill at the start of round three.
Giants general manager Dave Gettleman contemplated about moving up for the Georgia Bulldogs edge rusher, but Carter ended up falling to Big Blue at No. 66 overall.

Both Carter and Hill fill significant needs for the Giants and are perfect fits for Big Blue’s new defensive coordinator James Bettcher.
