New York Giants: Biggest Draft Day Regret in Franchise History

With the 2013 NFL Draft approaching, I wanted to reflect on past Giants drafts; more importantly their past 1st round selections. I decided to go back 20 years for a couple of reasons: The first being to maintain my sanity and the second, 20 years seems to be a fair amount of time to evaluate and make a conclusion.
