Giants drop 10 spots in the 2017 nfl draft

New York Giants have moved from pick 130 to 140 in the 2017 NFL Draft, because they used walkie talkies during a game.

The league fined both the Giants ($150,000) and McAdoo ($50,000) in December for his Week 14 rules-breaking early in the fourth quarter of a 10-7 win over the Dallas Cowboys at MetLife Stadium, and it also announced that Big Blue’s fourth-round pick would fall a maximum of 12 spots.

The Giants were not awarded any compensatory picks. That is not a surprise after their spending spree in free agency last year. The Giants did find out their fourth-round pick drops from No. 130 to No. 140 overall as a result of the discipline they received for using walkie-talkies during a game.
