Giants
In 2022, the Giants will have two first-round picks: their own plus one from the Chicago Bears in a deal that saw Justin Fields move to the Windy City and Kadarius Toney to the Big Apple.
5. Germany Travon WalkerGeorgia
Walker can do just about anything, from applying pressure to shutting off treadmills and getting into coverage.
20. (PIT TRADING FORECAST) FROM Trevor PenningNorthern Iowa
Penning has the ability and signature fire needed for an offense looking to unleash RB Sakwon Barkley, creating better conditions as the new regime recently ranks QB Daniel Jones.
Eagles
The Eagles received three first-round picks: their own, plus one from the Miami Dolphins in a trade for DeVont Smith, and one from the Indianapolis Colts in a trade for Carson Wentz.
15. (from MIA) DE/OLB David OjaboMichigan
What a breakthrough in his junior class when the 6-4, 250-pound boxer broke through for 11 sacks.
16. (from IND) WR Trailon BurksArkansas
Burks’ size…would be a plus for sometimes-scattered quarterback Jalen Hurts, and his potential as a Deebo Samuel-type weapon (1,216 yards and 12 TDs per 80 scrimmage last season) would be a boon for any team. .
19. Central Bank Trent McDuffieWashington
With a time of 4.4440, elite cover skills and quick wits, he is pretty much tailor-made for the secondary player who has nothing special but CB Darius Slay.
