The New York Giants selected Miami offensive tackle Francis Mauigoa with the 10th overall pick to bolster their pass protection. Mauigoa was born in Ili'ili, American Samoa and began his high school career at Aquinas before starring for the University of Miami. He becomes the first Miami offensive lineman taken in the first round since Ereck Flowers went ninth overall in 2015. By spending a top-10 pick on a tackle who excels in one-on-one blocking, New York aims to provide immediate protection for its quarterback and add flexibility to its offensive line.
