The Giants used the pick acquired in the trade of Odell Beckham Jr. to select EDGE Oshane Ximines out of Old Dominion. Ximines has solid size for an EDGE at 6-foot-3 1⁄2 and 253 pounds and is a solid, if unspectacular, athlete.He was productive at Old Dominion, racking up 176 tackles (51 for a loss), 32.5 sacks, 12 passes defensed, and 11 forced fumbles over four years (49 games) in college. Ximines has a reputation as a high-motor technician as a pass rusher, relying more on his hand usage and pass rush moves to beat blockers than his athleticism. Ximines’ first step isn’t great Phil Simms Jerseys 2019 , but he can be quick once he gets moving. He is also an edge player who can set an edge in the run game.The Giants desperately needed an infusion of talent at the EDGE position even before trading away Olivier Vernon and Ximines is a start at filling that hole. Ximines isn’t as exciting a pick as one of the elite top-end EDGE rushers would have been in the first round, but he presents a solid value on the Big Blue View big board, graded as a second-round talent.There is still talent on the board, such as Alabama’s Christian Miller or Oregon’s Justin Hollins, for the Giants to double-down on the position should they so choose. MINNESOTA VIKINGS (8-7-1)New faces: C Garrett Bradbury, RG Josh Kline, DT Shamar Stephen, TE Irv Smith Jr., RB Alexander Mattison, P/K Kaare Vedvik, LS Austin Cutting White Doug Kotar Jerseys , WR Jordan Taylor, assistant head coach/offensive adviser Gary Kubiak.Key losses: DT Sheldon Richardson, RB Latavius Murray, DT Tom Johnson, RG Mike Remmers, LG Tom Compton, PR Marcus Sherels, LS Kevin McDermott, SS Andrew Sendejo, WR Aldrick Robinson.Strengths: Defense, entering sixth season in coach Mike Zimmer's aggressive Doug Kotar Jerseys 2019 , effective scheme, remains as reliable as there is in league. Vikings ranked fourth in NFL in yards allowed and ninth in points allowed last year, and front office managed to bring almost entire band back, losing only Richardson from starting lineup. DE Everson Griffen, NT Linval Joseph and FS Harrison Smith are now 30-plus, but Smith in particular remains one of best in game at his position. LB Anthony Barr changed mind after verbal agreement to join New York Jets, keeping solid duo with Eric Kendricks in middle of defense intact. Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs comprise one of best WR tandems.Weaknesses: Offensive line, again, is concern until proven otherwise. Though QB Kirk Cousins made his share of mistakes in first season in Minnesota, he was often under duress. Run blocking was an even bigger problem last year, as Vikings finished with third-fewest rushing yards in NFL. Bradbury will be asked to anchor group as rookie White Harry Carson Jerseys , with Pat Elflein moving to LG and Kline sliding in to his right. Kicking game continues to be in flux, with surprise acquisition of Vedvik likely to push P Matt Wile out or, perhaps, K Dan Bailey.Fantasy Player To Watch: TE Kyle Rudolph. With Thielen and Diggs bound to draw most of attention from opposing defenses, and recent admission by Cousins that he didn't throw to Rudolph enough last year, longest-tenured offensive player on team remains ever important in new scheme designed by Kubiak under direction of offensive coordinator Kevin Stefanski. Rudolph, who hasn't missed game in five years and is still just 29, had 634 receiving yards last season, second-highest total of career.Vegas Says: Win Super Bowl, 27-1. Over/under wins, 9.Expectations: After stumbling underneath weight of Super Bowl goal following NFC championship game appearance and signing of Cousins to fully guaranteed contract Harry Carson Jerseys 2019 , Vikings enter 2019 with less buzz — exactly how Zimmer wants it. Still, team has as many individual stars as any in league, and Zimmer has just one playoff win in five years. Pressure remains on him and GM Rick Spielman to help guide Vikings to deep playoff run before window for proud, fierce defense closes. Committing new money to Barr, Thielen and Rudolph, on top of megadeals doled out in 2018 to Cousins, Diggs, Kendricks and DE Danielle Hunter, has pushed team even harder against salary cap and further cemented aggressive approach to securing franchise's elusive first championship.
