29. T ANDREW THOMAS, NEW YORK GIANTS
The lack of Andrew Thomas to harm final season was a devastating blow to an already weak offensive line. Thomas ended up taking part in simply 576 snaps, somewhat greater than half of his 2022 whole. He has elite pass-blocking chops and had introduced his run blocking to an identical stage in 2022 earlier than accidents derailed him in 2023. If Thomas bounces again and enjoys a wholesome season, whereas having some higher gamers alongside him on the Giants’ line, he’s properly worthy of this rating.
Neal will probably be beneath vital strain this coming season however Thomas will face loads of his personal. The Giants are banking on him to return to his All-Professional kind as a result of if not, the crew’s spiral will doubtless proceed and jobs will probably be misplaced.
