The New York Giants need help in a few places on the roster. A major need is one their interior offensive line.
Their offensive tackles are set for next year, but the IOL isn't the most impressive unit. They lack a bit of experience and upside.
That being said, they could still make a move in free agency to upgrade, or they could draft an interior offensive lineman or two.
That's exactly what they did in Daniel Jeremiah's latest NFL mock draft.
The Giants selected Wisconsin IOL Joe Tippmann with the 25th overall selection.
The Giants did a nice job adding some much-needed speed to the skill positions in free agency. Tippmann would team up with two young, talented offensive tackles to protect Daniel Jones for the foreseeable future.
Tippmann would make plenty of sense for NYG as he would probably start right off the bat for the Giants.
He was the consistent force on Wisconsin's OL this past season. At 6'6" and 313 pounds, he has the frame to be a starter at the NFL level.
He also impressed with his athleticism during the NFL Combine. His movement ability works well for an offense with Daniel Jones at QB and Saquon Barkley at RB.
The Giants will have him on their radar early in this year's draft.
