The Giants are receiving a seventh-round pick in return for Ezeudu.<\/p>\n
Ezeudu, 26, was originally drafted by the Giants out of North Carolina in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft. He primarily served as depth at left guard as a rookie, playing 289 snaps at the position. He was used as a swing tackle in 2023 and 2024, usually backing up Andrew Thomas at left tackle.<\/p>\n
Ezeudu appeared to move up the Giants\u2019 depth chart after the team traded guard Daniel Faalele to the Jacksonville Jaguars for a sixth-round pick after the first preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings. Ezeudu played 30 snaps at right guard against the Miami Dolphins before finishing the game at right tackle.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s interesting that the Giants have been dealing from their offensive line depth, and moving to recoup lost late-round draft capital. We\u2019ll see if the Giants are done making deals or if more are in the works.<\/p>\n
The emergence of rookie tackle J.C. Davis, a sixth-round pick, may have influenced this trade. There is also the possibility that the Giants might be looking for a way to keep both Lucas Patrick and Bryan Hudson on the roster. Patrick and Hudson have seemingly been vying for the backup center spot, but both have guard flexibility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Giants are receiving a seventh-round pick in return for Ezeudu.
