2017 NFL Mock Draft: Wild Trade Throws Top 10 Out of Whack

Alabama. O.J. Howard . 23. player. 31. Ask this question. Outside of Odell Beckham Jr., who do opponents really have to game plan for on the New York Giants offense? Don’t bother thinking about because there is no answer. Victor Cruz isn’t the player he was. Sterling Shepard is solid but not a dynamic threat. They have no running game either. Until this team finds another legitimate presence for Eli Manning to utilize, they won’t be competing for a Super Bowl. <p>If they can’t get that runner or another receiver, then the obvious direction is tight end. It’s absolute robbery for the Giants to get O.J. Howard at #23. This kid is the real deal. Big, strong, fast and athletic. He’s a sturdy and dependable blocker at the line of scrimmage and almost impossible to cover with a linebacker or safety in coverage. Try to imagine the damage OBJ could do when teams have to shift extra coverage to stopping Howard.</p>. TE
