PFF has interesting grades for all the first rounc picks and what their fans think>>>>
"5. NEW YORK GIANTS: EDGE KAYVON THIBODEAUX, OREGON
Pick Grade: Very Good
It was always going to be a surprise if Thibodeaux fell much further than this, even with “concerns” about his fit with different teams pushing him down boards over the last few months. There was just too much talent there. Thibodeaux recorded over 30 pressures as a true freshman in 2019, and he’s coming off a career-high 91.5 PFF pass-rushing grade last season for Oregon. He fits the mold of the impact pass rusher that New York desperately needed off the edge. -BL

6. CAROLINA PANTHERS: OT IKEM EKWONU, NORTH CAROLINA STATE
Pick Grade: Good
The board couldn’t have fallen much better for Carolina here with all three of the top offensive tackle prospects still on the board. The Panthers opted for the top run blocker in the class in Ekwonu. The NC State tackle earned PFF run-blocking grades above 85.0 in all three of his college seasons with grades above 90.0 in each of the last two years. It’s worth noting that the Panthers didn’t trade back here to add another pick or two given that they aren’t on the clock again until the fourth round. -BL

7. NEW YORK GIANTS: OT EVAN NEAL, ALABAMA
Pick Grade: Good
With the Giants going for Thibodeaux at their first pick, it signals that they were comfortable with multiple tackles at this spot. Neal is the cleanest fit as the player who has spent time at right tackle with Alabama in 2020. The 6-foot-8, 337-pound tackle is one of the best pound-for-pound athletes in this class and is coming off back-to-back seasons with PFF grades north of 83.0. There’s a lot to be excited about with the Andrew Thomas-Neal tandem at tackle. -BL
