Looking over the 2020 draft, I'm not sure anyone did better than Dave Gettleman. His rookie class is big reason the Giants are in first place in NFC East:

1-4: Andrew Thomas (starting to look worthy of high pick)

2-36: Xavier McKinney (working back after injury)

1/4
3-99: OT Matt Peart (key rotational OT)

4-110: Darnay Holmes (starter at nickel, performing better than almost every CB taken ahead of him; there were 11)

5-150: Shane Lemieux (entire line improved, most notably Thomas, when he began starting at LG)

2/4
6-183: Cam Brown (core special teams player, looks like potential longterm starter at LB)

7-218: Carter Coughlin (core special teams player, looks like potential longterm starter at LB)

7-238: T.J. Brunson (special teams contributor, backup at WLB)

3/4
7-247: Chris Williamson (practice squad)

7-255: LB Tae Crowder (final pick in draft, injured early, led team in tackles on Sunday, looks like longterm starter)

UDFA: DE Niko Lalos (turnover-forcing machine), WR Austin Mack (led team in receiving in Week 9)

4/4
