For every day leading up to the 2017 NFL Draft, we will be previewing a potential first-round pick for the New York Giants.
Up next in our daily draft diaries is University of Miami tight end David Njoku. The former Hurricane fills an obvious need — the Giants have a gaping hole at tight end and have had said hole since Martellus Bennett left in 2012. Larry Donnell and Will Tye simply aren’t good enough, and new free agent signing Rhett Ellison is more of a fullback/run blocker.
Eli Manning is in dire need of a security blanket down the middle, and an athletic tight end like Njoku could be just that.
