31. Eli Manning is still an Elite QB in my book but it’s been awhile since he’s played like it. But it’s also been awhile since the New York Giants have actually protected him worth anything. When they protect him, the Giants usually get a trip to the Super Bowl and win it.
<p>Ereck Flowers, the team’s 2015 first-round pick, just hasn’t worked out in his first two years. The Giants don’t need to waste another year of Manning’s career, especially with the defense the Giants have now. So it’s time to pull the trigger on a new left tackle in the draft.</p>
<p>Flowers can move to the right side to stop Marshall Newhouse from stinking up the joint there. Ryan Ramczyk is 6’5″, 315 pounds with great strength for run blocking and athleticism for pass blocking. They teach their lineman well at Wisconsin so he is also technically sound.</p>
<p>Unlike Flowers turned out, Ramczyk is ready to come in be a solid starting left tackle immediately. Manning would then have time to get the ball to his elite WR corps headlined by Odell Beckham Jr. The Giants would then be a threat to the NFC East and Super Bowl contender. </p>. OT. Wisconsin. Ryan Ramczyk. 23. player
