Giants Fans: Pay close attention to Rolando McClain in tomorrow's BCS Championship Game
Rolando McClain is rated the top overall Linebacker in the NFL Draft and will likely be picked somewhere between picks 5-20.
Brief look into the draft history of draft picks in the vicinity of the Giants 2010 1st round pick
There were some great players drafted in this area in the Giants current slot, including most recently, the 2009 Defensive Rookie of the Year, Brian Cushing. There were also some busts in this area as well, including Justin Harrell and Tye Hill. Overall, the Giants will have an extremely talented player available when they are on the clock and hopefully the scouting staff will have their eye on a talent that will be able to transfer his skills to the NFL level.
