For the second straight round, the New York Giants address the linebacker position. At No. 218 overall, Big Blue ultimately chose University of Minnesota’s Carter Coughlin.

His efforts led to him becoming a second-team All-Big Ten selection, an honor he additionally received during his junior campaign in 2018.
