Eluemunor Says Giants’ O-Line Can Be Top 10 With Rookie Francis Mauigoa

New York will open Mauigoa at right guard beside Jermaine Eluemunor to firm up protection for rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart.

Overview

  • Jermaine Eluemunor said the Giants’ offensive line can be a top-10 unit after the team re-signed him and drafted Francis Mauigoa at No. 10.
  • The Giants plan to start Mauigoa at right guard next to Eluemunor, according to general manager Joe Schoen.
  • Schoen credited senior scout and former All-Pro Chris Snee with guiding the call that Mauigoa’s traits fit guard.
  • At Miami, Mauigoa measured about 6-foot-5 and 329 to 330 pounds and earned an 83.6 Pro Football Focus grade with a 79.4 run-blocking mark.
  • Eluemunor re-signed on a three-year, $39 million contract after allowing a career-low 19 pressures but drawing 14 penalties last season.
