After the departure of Hakeem Nicks the Giants found themselves with Rueban Randle as their number 2 wide reciever. Last season Eli manning threw 9 interceptions when targeting Randle, so clearly he is not ready.

So they take another LSU wide receiver with the 12th pick.

Beckham has 4.43 speed and is an electric receiver that will make a huge impact right away.

I picked this guy because Bill Polian (former Bills and Colts GM, had superbowl teams with both) said that he was the best interior offensive lineman in the draft.

He’s a beast and can make an impact right away for the seahawks.

I pretty much only looked at offensive players with this pick, considering that the Seahawk’s defense last year was by far the best in the league and doesn’t really need improving.

I liked Cody Latimer and Kelvin Benjamin with this pick, but they were both gone.

Another option that would not surprise me if the Seahawks chose to do is drafting tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins from Washington because he has legitimate talent and the seahawks arent very good at the position.

I decided to go with a offensive Lineman here with the Giants' pick. The Giants' struggled with keeping Eli Manning upright last season and I felt like the had not done an adequate enough job at addressing the position in free agency.

With this pick I also was looking at, Zack Martin, Aaron Donald and Eric Ebron (who went 3 picks earlier).

Lewan brings in major talent to New York’s offensive line. He has some red flags but he definitely has top 10 overall talent and top 3 o-lineman talent
