Sauce Gardner at No. 5 is too high IMO. I'm also not so sure Lloyd is a top-10 pick or carries the positional value worth a pick there.

A 6-2 200 shut down press corner who hasn't given a TD in his 3yrs at Cinn is really hard to pass up at 5. I agree with not taking Lloyd at 7. There are a number of really good LBs. Walker & Tindall from GA just to name a few. John Sanborn LB from Wisconsin is a really sleeper IMHO.

Zion Johnson & Ruckert are super picks!

Youre probably right in regards to a regular 3-4 defense, but with the gambles Wink takes a shut down corner is a necessity, also the easiest way to beat the coverage 3 Wink runs is throwing slants and Lloyd is one of the best sideline to sideline backers in this draft.

I think that Gardner or Hamilton may find their way into one of our first two picks. They are playmakers. A blitzing defense better have DB's that can hold their own.
I have been reading that Schoen and Buffalo never drafted O-linemen that high. The belief is that an O-line need only have good players that play together well to be successful.
I have a funny feeling that a pass-rusher and DB might be our first two.

Hamilton has pedestrian speed and coming off an injury better show something big pre draft or his stock is falling

This following on the heels of Logan Ryan's release:
[His departure leaves the Giants with Xavier McKinney and Julian Love as their only experienced safeties under contract. It could indicate that the Giants might be seriously eyeing Notre Dame safety Kyle Hamilton in the first round of the 2022 draft.]

Wouldn't surprise me. He is highly thought of and it is reflected on the majority of the Big Boards.

I can see Hamilton at No. 5. But it all depends on who's on the board at the time. This can go multiple ways.

Yup, I think Hamilton is definitely in play here IF the offensive tackles are gone.
