Nick and Dan discuss the Giants' tight end room and how New York's front office revamped what was a weakness without using a pick INSIDE of the top 100. Joe Schoen and Brandon Brown identified a problem and fixed it with a late third-round pick that was traded for Waller (100 in 2023) and the selection of Daniel Bellinger at pick 112 in 2022. This could have a profound influence on how Mike Kafka employs his personnel and exploits the defense. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
