Even though adding an offensive tackle could well be in the game plan for the New York Giants before the 2017 season gets here, finding an ideal fit in this year’s draft class could be difficult. And the front office is not impressed with the available group.

SNY’s Ralph Vacchiano reported that the Giants are “generally down” on the offensive lineman in the 2017 NFL Draft class.

Although many people project the Giants to take a tackle in the first round with the 23rd overall pick, a team source said the Giants are generally down on this year’s class of offensive linemen. They might take one there – Utah’s Garett Bolles and Wisconsin’s Ryan Ramczyk would get consideration – but as much as they know they need offensive line help, the source said they don’t believe any of the current linemen could walk right in and start.

One thing the Giants would want is a surefire starter that could contribute right out of the gate. This could change the draft pick if the Giants don’t want to use their first rounder on a player that might not start in the regular season opener against the Dallas Cowboys.

With Bolles and Ramczyk, in addition to Alabama’s Cam Robinson, the Giants could use that No. 23 overall pick on one of them, but if they don’t see a significant upgrade, they could turn to a different position.

Adding a tight end, linebacker or another pass rusher could come before an offensive linemen on the Giants’ draft board if they aren’t impressed with this year’s class.
