With the twentieth pick in the 2007 NFL Draft, the New York Giants selected cornerback Aaron Ross from Texas. The Giants seemed to have needs at linebacker and left tackle, but they instead went to work on their secondary.

Ross has all of the basic needs for a cornerback, including speed and size. He had six interceptions in 2006 and is often making plays on the football. He also has the ability to come up to the line of scrimmage and defend against the run well as a result of his tackling skills.

The Giants could also envision using Ross as a returner, which he had experience in at the college level. Ross is still learning the cornerback position, but is considered a very solid pick with where he went.
