Mack Brown: New York Giants 'really smart' to draft Joshua Ezeudu, Marcus McKethan

Posted May 6, 2022
It's rare for a team to emerge from the NFL Draft with two players from the same school. It's even more rare for both of those players to come from the same position group. But this was the case for the Giants, who selected both of UNC's starting guards. Joshua Ezeudu was the 67th selection, while Marcus McKethan was the 172nd pick of the draft. (New York Giants)
