New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen is prepared to significantly improve his team’s roster this offseason and has the resources to make that initiative a reality.
With the No. 3 overall selection in this year’s NFL draft and a free agent war chest of over $50 million in salary cap space, Schoen is ready to attack the team’s biggest offseason need: a pair of quarterbacks.
Speaking at the NFL combine in Indianapolis, Schoen told reporters that he will exhaust all resources to address his quarterback room, which currently has just third-stringer Tommy DeVito under contract.
“Where we are financially from a salary cap standpoint is great, we have premium draft capital,” he said. ” I feel like we have the resources to improve this roster.”
“I’m for taking swings at that position,” he added. “It’s the most important position and it’s hard to find them. So keep swinging.”
Schoen said the Giants will “look under every rock” for a quarterback and explore every avenue. If they draft a young QB, he would like to pair him with a veteran to show him how to be a pro.

Schoen was asked about the possible trade for Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, he said it was a “question for the Rams” since Stafford is still under contract with them.
Stafford was given permission by the Rams last week to talk to teams about a potential contract and the Giants were rumored to be one of the teams contacted.
The Giants could very well use the No. 3 pick on quarterback. as well. The objective Schoen says is to improve the position in 2025.
“It’s the most important position in football, and we have one on our roster right now…we need better play out of that position than what we’ve had,” he said.
