New York Giants mock draft 2023: Pick-by-pick predictions
No. 209, Round 6: Jarrett Patterson, G, Notre Dame
Drafting a Notre Dame offensive lineman (or tight end) always sounds like a good idea and the Giants do just that with their sixth-round pick that came from the Kansas City Chiefs in the Kadarius Toney trade. Patterson played center in back-to-back seasons from 2020-21 before seamlessly making the move to left guard last season.

The 6-foot-5, 306-pound didn’t give up a single sack across three seasons and 1,189 pass-blocking snaps. Patterson provides New York with additional depth along the offensive line and has the potential to blossom into a cornerstone piece.
