3. Lorenzo Carter, EDGE

If Lorenzo Carter is able to realize his potential with the New York Giants, there might be a lot of Georgia fans wondering what in the world the secret formula is.

Carter is an athletic specimen, built like he was constructed at an NFL player lab and blessed with incredible natural athleticism.

Despite his physical skills, Carter has yet to put everything together on the football field.

With that said, he will get the chance to make a significant impact for the Giants coming off the edge in 2018. With the talent in front of him in Dalvin Tomlinson and Snacks Harrison, Carter should be protected well enough to get some one-on-one situations and it will be up to him to cash in.

This selection in the draft for the Giants was an obvious ‘boom or bust’ move and with the role he could play in 2018, he could be a breakout player from the start.
