Hollin Pierce's transformation from a walk-on to an NFL prospect speaks to his stellar work ethic and talent.

Comparison to Neal will turn off a lot of fans. But I will say this, if the Giants haven't taken an OT in previous rounds and he is still there in the 4th where SI puts him, the Giants should run up to the stage with the card to select him.

When he gets drafted, it will be one of my best moments as a fan. To see how much work he put in to put himself in this position is why you still hang in there and root for college sports.

Comparison to Neal will turn off a lot of fans.

In terms of attitude and effort, Pierce is the anti- Neal.

Hate to say it but the listing below has the things killing the Giants.
Huge and strong alone doesn't work in NFL anymore.
Flowers, Neal, Hernandez couldn't/can't move
NFL DEs and LBS are freaks on steroids (Army Pro Bowler for Steelers lamented the challenges of blocking juicers)
