The New York Giants have definitely been one of the more hit or miss teams in the NFL Draft’s first round in recent years. Sometimes, they end up drafting players that could be stars for a long time, such as Saquon Barkley and Odell Beckham Jr., even if the latter player didn’t pan out in the long run.
Other times in recent memory, the team has taken players such as Eli Apple or Justin Pugh, who end up playing elsewhere a relatively short time later, with varying degrees of good performance. And in 2015, the team notably spent a top 10 pick on tackle Ereck Flowers, which panned out far worse than most would have imagined at the time and could be called one of the worst picks of the last front office regime.
