Teams cannot get enough of them, and almost always prioritize them. They get paid big bucks in free agency, and go quickly in the NFL Draft, year after year. If a team has one, it wants two. If it has two, it looks for three and four.

The Giants, however, did not select even one pass rusher during the three-day draft last week. Not one edge rusher.

With their seven selections, they took two cornerbacks, one center, one wide receiver, one running back, one safety and one defensive tackle.

The Giants addressed their three biggest needs, taking cornerback Deonte Banks in the first round, center John Michael Schmitz in the second round and receiver Jalin Hyatt in the third round.
