player. 31. <p>One of the main holes the New York Giants have is at offensive line. Eli Manning is a sitting duck in the pocket, forcing bad decision after bad decision. While there are plenty of options at the offensive line at the ninth spot, the New York Giants should look in a different direction.</p> <p>Much like the offensive line, the defense was very mediocre last season, ranking 29th in the league in total yards allowed throughout the season. One player that can come in an make an impact is safety Landon Collins.</p> <p>At the University of Alabama, Collins was one of the main defensive anchors. Collins was an All-American and All-Sec First-Team during his junior season at Alabama, making him the top safety prospect in this draft. He will add a physical presence to the secondary – something that is currently lacking. His instincts are off the roof, allowing him to come in an compete early on for a starting role.</p> <p>With Antrele Rolle set to hit the open market, the Giants must find a young, hard-hitting, franchise safety.</p>. Safety. Alabama. Landon Collins. 9

Louisville. DeVante Parker. 10. player. 51. <p>For the past two years I have pleaded the St. Louis Rams to draft a wide receiver in the first round. Each year I am disappointed as they will either trade the selection or go in a different direction. However, with the recent success of first round receivers, you have to think maybe this is the year my wish will be granted.</p> <p>The Rams have a very good defense. That is not a question. There problem comes on the offensive side of the ball. St. Louis just doesn’t have enough weapons to counter Sam Bradford’s continuous fight with injuries.</p> <p>As far as receivers go, Kenny Britt recorded his first 700 yard season in four years, Chris Givens is okay and Brian Quick is coming off of a season ending injury. Stedman Bailey and Tavon Austin are very quick and elusive, however, they lack the size of a true number one receiver.</p> <p>DeVante Parker will give the Rams a true number one option at the wide out position and hey, maybe Bradford could find a way to stay healthy this season. They are a few pieces away from the playoffs and adding a number one receiver would only increase their likelihood of making it to the postseason.</p>. Wide Receiver
