The New York Giants will host several offensive linemen at their local pro day this coming Thursday. One of them will be Boston College’s Christian Mahogany, a native of Elmwood Park. Art Staple of USA TODAY was the first to report the news. Boston College offensive lineman Christian Mahogany will visit #NYGiants as part of their local Pro Day on Thursday, per sources.
Mahogany has impressed in pre-draft evaluation. Former Paramus Catholic star from Elmwood Park is likely Day 2 pick and could go early. — Art Stapleton (@art_stapleton) April 1, 2024 The Giants will also have Holy Cross’ C.J. Hanson in attendance as well. Mahogany, who is 6-foot-3 and 314 pounds, is a better blocker than a pass protector. NFL Network draft analyst Lance Zierlein views Mahogany as an eventual NFL starter. Big and powerful but lacking the leverage and body control needed to play a more consistent brand of football. Mahogany’s early tape was very problematic due to shoddy footwork caused by a poor stance, but he made a midseason self-correction that led to better tape later in the year. He doesn’t have the short-area movements to be a consistent pass protector against NFL sub-packages, but the hand usage and punch are good. Mahogany is a downhill mauler who needs to continue technique work but also needs to play for a team that values the big power players and allows them to do what they do best in the run game. He has a chance to be a backup with upside early in his career. The Giants continue to tweak their offensive line, determined to get it right. General manager Joe Schoen and co-owner John Mara both said earlier this offseason the offensive line is still very much a priority.
