Greg Little is a leading-tier offensive tackle prospect in the 2019 NFL Draft course and the New York Giants are fascinated in the Ole Miss out on offensive lineman.

According to Little, the Giants were the to start with staff Little met with at the 2019 NFL Combine.

“They were my to start with visit,” Little explained Thursday at The Combine, by using NJ.com. “It was a ton of enjoyable. High electrical power in the home. We watched a ton of good plays. They kind of picked my mind to see what I consider about distinct plays and how I function, and what kind of instincts I have on the industry. It seemed like they were enthusiastic to have me visit and discover more about me.”

Little has a ton of what the Giants search for in offensive line potential customers. For starters, he has the “hog molly” body general manager Dave Gettleman harps on. Little weighed in at 310 kilos and he carries it really properly — the Ole Miss out on prospect measured in at 6-foot-5 1/4. Little also experienced some of the longest arms of any offensive lineman at the Combine — 35 1/4. He also tested properly when it came to his wingspan and hand dimensions. Most importantly, Little features the Giants countless hrs of activity movie from some of the ideal move rushers in the country even though participating in in the SEC.

The offensive line course might be deeper than it has been in the past decade. Far more exclusively, there is solid depth at the offensive tackle position. If Little entered the 2017 NFL Draft, he would have been a to start with-spherical choose. In this course, we’re not so sure. The sheer depth of expertise at the offensive tackle position could press Little from a to start with-spherical draft choose to a 2nd-spherical draft choose.

When the Giants are on the board with the No. 37 all round choose in spherical two, Little could be their leading goal. If Little does get a possibility to be drafted by and participate in for the Giants, he can’t wait around to have the opportunity to block for Rookie of the Year Saquon Barkley.

“Saquon’s an explosive person,” Little explained. “It would be awesome. It would be an honor to block for a person like Saquon. He’s a great, great competitor. He’s enjoyable to check out. I’m a true giddy person about participating in with great expertise. Participating in with Saquon would be an honor.”


If the Giants do draft Little with their 2nd-spherical choose, they likely challenge him as a probable Day 1 starter at the right tackle position. Despite the fact that the Giants confirmed some advancement at right tackle in 2018 when they unveiled Ereck Flowers and moved Chad Wheeler into the beginning lineup, it was more of an addition by subtraction. Wheeler, like Flowers, graded out as just one of the worst right tackles in the NFL in 2018, in accordance to Professional Soccer Concentrate. The Giants obviously will need to enhance at the right tackle position and Little could be just one of their leading targets.
