2020 - Andrew Thomas, Jerdick Wills, Mekhi Beckton, Tristan Wirfs and Austin Jackson........It was a two tackle 1st round. The Giants, Jets and Dolphins missed out on the two tackles, at least we have an excuse.
One of my Giants buddies told me that Thomas was coming around though this year, doesn't appear to be the case. 4th overall OT's don't need to "come around". They need to be better than everyone else from Day 1.
They Trubiskied that decision. At least we didn't have the options they did.
Wirfs is a stud who helped propel Tampa Bay's offense and the best of the bunch. 3 OT's went ahead of him.
The jury is still out on the Mekhi Becton, given that it's hard to assess guys who are hurt. Betting odds aren't in his favor of being successful.
The most important thing to remember is that you NEVER stop trying to upgrade the OL. Past failures are irrelevant. You never don't draft an OL because you missed on the last one.
