29. New York Giants

04/15/09- Aaron Maybin OLB. Lordy, I’m having a hard time not giving WR Kenny Britt to New York. There is no other position on their roster than screams out “Fire! Fire!” like the receivers, now that Burress is gone and Toomer doesn’t have a contract. But two things stop me. One, would a rookie receiver, even a big one like Britt, do a whole lot to help that situation immediately? I don’t think it would. As ardent NFL fans know, it takes usually takes these guys a few years to figure out the pro game. Second, it has now been a couple of years for the WR replacements, Steve Smith and Domenik Hixon. These guys aren’t stiffs; they have actually shown good potential in both the regular season and the post season. Perhaps a third reason is that I’m hesitant to forecast a need pick for the Giants when they are just two seasons removed from a Super Bowl title. These guys are not beggars, they can afford to be choosy. So I’ll go with Maybin, who addresses another need for the Giants (albeit, not quite the crying need they have at receiver) but represents greater value at this spot.
