Head coach Ben McAdoo confirmed the Boise State product is the favorite to do so after working with the Giants' defensive starters since OTAs. New York might receive even more production from this year's class, because the franchise's recent third-round pick, safety Darian Thompson, is projected to start alongside Landon Collins. Only 2013 second-round pick Johnathan Hankins didn't start a game during his rookie campaign. Over the last three years, the organization's first- and second-round choices combined to start 73 of 96 games.
The New York Giants expect their top draft picks to make an instant impact. Bleacher Report identified the biggest stories from Tuesday's practices -including a pair of injuries to key Patriots, Case Keenum's stand, Josh Gordon's struggle, Lane Johnson's uncertain status and a few moves up the depth chart. Until teams actually step onto the field, though, plenty of noteworthy tidbits can be found throughout the league. There are even those who won't receive much playing time due to veteran status or being buried on the depth chart. Others will step up and play at another level.

For some, it's just another day in paradise. Those who have been practicing continue to ready themselves for the opportunity to play against a live opponent. Organizations are pulling individuals off PUP lists. After the NFL's false start Sunday in Canton, Ohio, every team is preparing for its first exhibition contest, with 12 franchises slated to play Thursday, 10 teams on Friday, eight squads on Saturday and one Sunday evening game.Īs such, this week became the first with actual preparation instead of generic training-camp regiments.
