The college pro days continued on Thursday with four major programs inviting NFL coaches, scouts, and executives onto their campuses to get a closer look at their draft hopefuls.<\/p>\n

Florida, Pittsburgh, TCU, and Texas Tech are all destinations to focus on come Thursday, with defense being the major theme.<\/p>\n

Players to keep an eye on and who could interest the New York Giants<\/a>: Florida defensive tackle Caleb Banks, Pitt linebacker Kyle Louis, TCU safety Bud Clark, Texas Tech edge rusher David Bailey, linebacker Jacob Rodriguez, and defensive tackle Lee Hunter.<\/p>\n

Of the group, only Bailey is considered a top 10 pick, and the Giants aren’t likely to take an edge rusher early in this draft, so he really isn’t in play for them at No. 5. Neither are any of the others, but they are all considered Day 2 selections.<\/p>\n

The Giants hold the 37th overall pick in the second round, but do not have a third-round pick, as it was traded away as part of the package to move up for Jaxson Dart last year.<\/p>\n
