The New York Giants were one of the few mystery teams entering the 2020 NFL Draft. In fact, general manager Dave Gettleman had an immense amount of power with the fourth overall pick. The Miami Dolphins had long been projected the favorites to land Tua Tagovailoa with the fifth pick. As a result, any team that wanted the Alabama lefty would’ve had to deal with Gettleman.
When the dust settled, the Giants stayed put and made a safe pick with upside in the selection of Georgia offensive tackle, Andrew Thomas.
New York totaled nine picks and did a fairly decent job with the value of their selections.
