Pre-draft visits have been a Giants tell — here's who they met with this year
Last year, New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen conceded that the team’s list of pre-draft visitors could be something of a tell.“Maybe there’s a trend with these 30 visits that we take,” he said, “but I’d rather be accurate with the information that we have and really get to know the players and know if they fit or don’t fit versus trying to play a game or not getting all the information and missing on character or something like that.”Advertisement
