It only took a matter of seconds after the Cleveland Browns made the first pick of the evening for the New York Giants to turn in the card announcing their selection of Will Hernandez of UTEP.
And it was a pick that Dave Gettleman probably didn’t even need that long to think about. Hernandez has widely been considered a first-round prospect and it was a complete surprise that he fell out of the first round.
Hernandez is a big, powerful, nasty, and surprisingly agile offensive guard. Built like a vending machine with arms, legs, and a bad attitude, Hernandez simply dominated his opponents at the University of Texas, El Paso.
