The New York Giants could get one of the bigger steals in the draft with wide receiver Zay Jones. He’s an under-the-radar prospect who has the natural skills needed to be a top-flight receiver. His performance at the Senior Bowl has put him in the 2nd round range.
Ryan Anderson is a solid all-around player who is ready to step in and make an immediate impact. He’d be a great fit at outside linebacker with the Green Bay Packers who could lose both Nick Perry and Julius Peppers this offseason.
The Patriots are the type of team that could make the most of Bucky Hodges skill set. He has the pass-catching ability to fill in for Rob Gronkowski or free agent Martellus Bennett.
