2015 NFL Mock Draft: Predicting the Ideal 1st-Round Pick for Every Team | Bleacher Report
This site has us taking Beasley. According to them, get ready for him to be bowled over on running plays, but don't worry, we will only use him on passing downs in the first year(oh that makes it alright then!).
There is some question of whether Beasley has the size (Clemson listed him at 6'3", 235 lbs) and strength to be a consistently effective run defender on the edge, but he would probably be used mostly as a pass-rusher in his rookie season anyway, rotating in with Ryan Kerrigan and Trent Murphy. If Beasley can continue to bulk up without sacrificing athleticism—something he showed he could do at this year’s NFL Scouting Combine—he should continue to improve in that area.
While here again, the Giants get the future STAR at guard. (Guard?? why would anyone need one of those????)
A three-year starter at offensive tackle for the Hawkeyes, Scherff was a unanimous All-American and the Outland Trophy winner last season. An athletic, strong and technically sound lineman, he is more than capable of stepping in and playing tackle for an NFL unit if necessary.
In New York, however, Scherff would likely move to guard, where the Giants should be in the market for a new starter and where he is most likely to emerge as a star in the NFL.
While Scherff lacks prototypical length for the offensive tackle position, his ability to generate power and forward explosiveness suit him excellently for a move to the interior offensive line. As Bleacher Report contributor Dan Pompei noted in a recent tweet, scouts compare Scherff to Zack Martin, who earned first-team AP All-Pro honors as a rookie after moving from tackle to guard for the Dallas Cowboys last season.
