The Longest Mock Draft in NFL History Continues...
That’s right.
I’m going to beat my own self-imposed deadline of April 1st by a whole day.
Pick No. 32: New York Giants
The New York “Football” Giants.
As a Patriots fan, I knew they were picking last in the draft BEFORE the Super Bowl. I just assumed the reason was because the Patriots lost their pick.
The Super Bowl results STILL hurt.
I still don’t understand why the Patriots didn’t stop the five and seven step drops after the very first double-fake handoff play didn’t work.
I still don’t understand why they didn’t roll Brady outside the pocket at all until the fourth quarter.
I still don’t understand why they didn’t use the shotgun more once they figured out the offensive line couldn’t block the Giants’ defensive line.
It was interesting, because I’m not used to rooting for the big, evil empire that everyone wants to lose. I’m used to rooting for the scrappy underdog who knows that if they land a few big punches the bully will wilt.
And that’s just want the Giants did. They punched the Patriots offense in the face, and for the first time in the Belichick era, they had no answer. They couldn’t run the ball. They couldn’t protect Brady.
They were powerless.
The Giants’ defense had one of the best games I’ve seen in AGES. They were tremendous.
