See who FOX Sports has Giants taking in latest mock draft

Caleb Farley is not what the Giants need in the first round

With 2021 NFL mock drafts popping up left and right, Jason McIntyre of FOX Sports has released his own and he has an interesting pick for the New York Giants that really doesn’t make sense.

McIntyre has the Giants taking Virginia Tech cornerback Caleb Farley 11th overall. Here’s what he wrote:

11. New York Giants – Caleb Farley, CB, Virginia Tech (14)
2020 season stats: N/A (opted out of the season)
2019 season stats: 4 INTs, 1 TD, 20 total tackles

Yes, I would I look long and hard at a QB here. But with the top four off the board, adding another high end CB talent greatly helps the defense. James Bradberry had an all-pro season, but the Giants could never figure out CB2 after the Deandre Baker disaster.

As you can see above, Farley didn’t play in 2020 due to the worldwide pandemic, which is fine. But as much as the Giants’ need a number two cornerback, the bigger need is either a top wide receiver or an edge rusher. I believe that they have to get one of those two in the first round.

If anything I would like to see the Giants grab a corner in the third round or later. I feel like safety Julian Love can continue to help them as a corner and Issac Yiadom wasn’t terrible this season.
