6. New York Giants: Micah Parsons, LB, Penn State
It feels like just about every year, the New York Giants are in the market for a linebacker in the NFL Draft.
As it turns out, the stars could be aligning for a union between them and Micah Parsons in the 2021 NFL Draft.
When all is said and done, don’t be surprised if a lot of people talk themselves into Micah Parsons as the best defensive player in the entire 2021 NFL Draft class.
He flies around the field with ridiculous play speed, instincts, coverage ability, pass rush abilities, and everything in between.
An absolute specimen at 6-foot-3, 245 pounds, Parsons was the Big Ten Linebacker of the Year after racking up 109 total tackles, 14 tackles for loss, five sacks, five pass breakups, and four forced fumbles.
He’s a game-changer.
