Mock draft reaction: safety, LB, guard?
I know they suck and get it all wrong but this time of year you get trade rumors (Shockey) and mock drafts (this one). So this mock has us taking:
31. Kenny Phillips, S, Miami
63. Xavier Abidi, LB, VT
95. Roy Schuening, OG, Oregon St.
As far as I know those a 3 guys that could become good NFL players. I do notice that in later rounds it is usual for the Giants to draft based on need and value so I'm not sure if a guard in round 3 is realistic - the draft says we need offensive line depth - do we? Did we lose any offensive linemen?

I think we can repeat if Strahan comes back!
