Giants grab third first-round pick 
Brian Spurlock-USA TODAY SportsThere was all sorts of media pressure on the Giants coming into the draft. Not that it had any influence on the Big Blue brass. Still, they traded back into the first round to make their third such selection on the night — the first time in NFL history for Big Blue to have three first-round picks. They gave up their 37th pick to the Seahawks and drafted DeAndre Baker out of Georgia.
Redskins ‘Sweat’ it out
The Washington Redskins traded with the Indianapolis Colts to get in position to select Mississippi State’s Montez Sweat. The edge rusher with incredible speed fell because there were concerns about his heart, which were cleared up as the draft approached. Still, some teams were turned off and took Sweat off their boards.
Eagles trade and go big
After Green Bay pulled its trade, the Eagles went swapping to get the next pick. They switched positions with the Ravens and gave up a fourth and sixth to grab Washington State offensive line star Andre Dillard. The Eagles jumped the Texans, who wanted Dillard and were visibly upset by Philly’s deal from their war room on the broadcasts.
Packers, Seahawks pull trade
The Green Bay Packers gave the Seattle Seahawks two fourth-round picks and their 30th slot in order to move up to the 21st pick and they drafted Maryland DB Darnell Savage.
Steelers move way up
The Pittsburgh Steelers made the first major move of the draft, trading up from 20 and grabbing the No. 10 pick from John Elway and the Denver Broncos. Mean Joe Greene (pictured) made the announcement as the Steelers drafted Michigan LB Devin Bush. The Steelers dealt their second-round pick to move up and select Bush.
