And even though the main event is months away, the first waves of mock drafts are rolling in with the Senior Bowl right around the corner. >> GIANTS TO SELECT 23RD IN NFL DRAFT Below is a look at what some of the analysts have in mind for the Giants at No. 23. The 82nd NFL Draft will be held April 27-29 in Philadelphia with Round 1 on Thursday, Rounds 2-3 on Friday, and Rounds 4-7 on Saturday. MEL KIPER JR., ESPN Pick: Ryan Ramczyk, OT, Wisconsin Analysis: “Ramczyk, who has had an amazing path to the NFL, is a 6-6, 314-pound road grader with all the traits of an NFL starter, but he's not a talent on the level of former Badger Joe Thomas (who is?). New York could also target a pass-rusher or tight end (none are off the board so far).” DANIEL JEREMIAH, NFL.COMPick: Gerald Everett, TE, South Alabama Analysis: “Get to know this name. Everett has a lot of similarities to Jordan Reed and he would crush it in the Giants' offensive system, surrounded by Odell Beckham Jr. and Sterling Shepard.” ROB RANG, THE SPORTS XCHANGE/CBSSPORTS.COM Pick: Christian McCaffrey, RB, Stanford Analysis: “McCaffrey isn't a bruiser but his instincts, shiftiness and soft hands out of the backfield could make him an intriguing weapon for Big Blue.” DANE BRUGLER, NFLDRAFTSCOUT.COM Pick: Taco Charlton, DE, Michigan Analysis: “Charlton, who has some traits reminiscent of Justin Tuck out of Notre Dame, has all the ingredients of a NFL starter."
