Doubt the Giants go Minter in the 1st. He is not a 1st round prospect. I would not be a fan of this draft if I were the Giants. I commend you on a full 7 round mock, however. He may not be taken by the Giants because he doesn't play an "athletic" position, but, Minter is a first round prospect.

Pugh and Williams are good picks. Pats could use more depth at guard and Receiver in the 3rd round makes sense. A dt isnt worth it in the 1st round unless one of the top 2 guys falls that far, which wont happen. Tommy Kelley was just signed, which essentially eliminates the need to take one in the 1st few rounds. I wondered if they would put Kelly to play to be honest. They signed Haynesworth and Chad Johnson in 2011, and both didn't get much snaps. And both are old. Including Kelly Haynesworth got quite a bit of snaps actually, he was hurt at the begging of the season, but started every game he played. Then he was cut because of his outburst in the giants game. Johnson didnt learn the playbook, so that was a different situation. Kelley is getting paid more than any other dt besides Vince Wilfork on our roster. But Kelley isnt the only addition, because Armond Armstead was added from the cfl, and he is getting paid like a 2nd round pick. Kelley had an off year last year, but has been consistant every other year of his career. I blame his off year more on the Raiders overall defense, than Kelly himself. But either way, a dt wont be picked in the 1st round, maybe 3rd round if we keep that pick.

I saw it as the pick that would make most sense among the available players, because of aging Kelly and Armstead who will likely be the team's third defensive tackle

I saw it as the pick that would make most sense among the available players, because of aging Kelly and Armstead who will likely be the team's third defensive tackle The main issue I have with the pick, is the lack, of playing time Hankins would likely get, and the fact that Kyle Love, Vince Wilfork, Tommy Kelly, Armond Armstead, and Brandon Deaderick all have guaranteed money and that we have 3 more dt's on the roster that dont have guaranteed money. I would say that the Pats will most likely trade down. Considering we have 5 picks right now, and that could be 4 if we get Sanders. I just cant see a way we pick in the 1st round. Now that being said I think our 1st pick will be the best player on the board, assuming that isnt a QB or a lb.

Pretty sure Sylvester Williams doesn't fit the Steelers DL scheme. Kenny Vaccaro, DeAndre Hopkins, Eric Reid, or Matt Elam would be beautiful trade down scenarios.
Robert Woods would make a very solid 2nd round pick, Larry Warford is a curve ball but I like it. Kevin Minter or another safety would be pretty awesome too.
