Giants Snag Reese, Mauigoa in NFL Draft

0:00It's April 25th. Welcome to NFL News Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Giants made waves in the 2026 NFL Draft. Snaggin' Ohio State Ed Drusher Arville Reese at the 5th Pick and Miami Offensive Tackle. Francis Maigoa, 10th overall. These top 10 selections beef up both sides of the line, given new coach John Harbaugh the trench warriors he craves to turn around that defense. He springs crazy versatility, linen up outside linebacker, 56% of snaps, inside 38%, even some defensive back. At just 20 years old, he's a physical freak with pass rush upside. Maigoa dominated at tackle, post in a 1.1% pressure rate, third best in college football, and just two sacks allowed in over five, 100 pass blocks. Maigoa didn't hold back, telling reporters offensive lineman got to go all out protecting the QB like Jackson Dart, opening holes for runners, that's the job.

But edge guy Kavon Tivito might be salty, now forth in the rotation behind Brian Burns of Dual Carter and Reese. Generalist Lovenit, PFF gave Reese a very good grade for his athleticism, Maigoa a solid good for run blocking and flexibility. That pass rush crew could explode past last year's 38 team sacks, making QB sweat. One hiccup, Maigoa's got an asymptomatic herniated disc that bears watching. Giant's legend Lawrence Taylor hit a snag, hospitalized Friday after a medical emergency in Jersey, but it's not life threatening and he's expected. Soon, front office nailed foundational picks to build contention trenches locked, future looking fears.
