Good news for Eli Apple: There are some great restaurants in New York, and he’s now a Giant.
Apple, who was the subject of the most ridiculous pre-draft discussion of the week when an anonymous scout criticized his alleged inability to cook, was selected by the Giants with the 10th overall pick in the draft.
Put aside the silliness of cooking, and Apple is a very good cornerback from Ohio State who should make an immediate impact on the Giants’ defense. At 6-foot-1 and 199 pounds, Apple has good size for a cornerback, and is viewed as ready to play in the NFL right now.
Now Apple, who grew up in South Jersey, heads to the Big Apple.
