Fans of the New York Giants have been waiting for some time for the team to upgrade its offensive line. Throughout their history, the team usually wins when the offensive line dominates.
Two years ago, the Giants used the fourth overall pick on Georgia tackle Andrew Thomas. This year, with the seventh overall selection in the draft, Big Blue took Alabama’s Evan Neal — a 6-foot-7, 340-pound athletic stud — to complement Thomas.
Neal has lined up at right tackle this week at Giants training camp and will finally get to show what he’s got come Monday when the team practices in full pads for the first time this summer.
