Giants' Draft: Rutledge for Guard, Delane for Corner?
About this episode
The New York Giants are bolstering their roster with significant moves in run defense, tight end, and special teams, but theyre playing it cautious at cornerback and right guard ahead of the NFL Draft. They might secure LSU corner Mansoor Delane with the fifth overall pick or trade down to get him. However, for right guard, theyre not looking for a first-round splash, instead focusing on day two talent. ESPN draft expert Matt Miller recommends Georgia Techs Keylan Rutledge for this position. Rutledge, a tough and versatile player, could protect quarterback Jaxson Dart and create lanes for running back Cam Skattebo. Standing at six feet four and weighing three hundred sixteen pounds, Rutledge has impressive pass-blocking skills, having not given up a sack in over eight hundred snaps in his last two college seasons. His quick forty-yard dash time at the combine further showcases his athleticism. Rutledge could be a valuable addition to the Giants line, providing the necessary pocket time for their young quarterback.

0:00On April 6th, the New York Giants shook up their roster with big moves on run defense, tied in, and special teams, but they're playing it safe at. Corner back in right guard heading into the NFL draft. They could snag LSU corner, Mansour Delane, with the 5th overall pick or tray down a bit to get them. For right guard though, don't expect a first round splash. They're eyeing Day 2 talent. ESPN draft guru Matt Miller has a prime suggestion for that guard spot, Georgia Tech's Keelan Retledge. Miller calls him tough as nails, perfect for protecting quarterback Jackson Dart and opening lanes for running back Cam Scatabo. His versatility means he could lock down right or left guard long term. Retledge stands 6v4 and weighs 316 pounds, a beast from Royston, Georgia, who helped his yellow jackets win nine games. Last season, they're best in nearly a decade. Fans and analysts love his nasty streak in the run game and solid pass protection. Over his last two college seasons, he didn't give up a single sack in more than 800 pass
1:03blocking snaps, allowing just nine pressures total. According to Pro Football Focus. At the combine, he clocked a quick 5.05 in the 40 yard dash, showing real athleticism for his size. With a young quarterback like Dart needing that pocket time, Retledge looks like a Day 2 steel to build the Giants line around, keeping the offense. Rolling into contention, I'm Cory with the story. That's your NFL News Today update, AI powered and always on.
