One last mock draft from Daniel Jeremiah
It’s that time when everyone is getting their last mock drafts in before the NFL Draft itself.
Former NFL scout and current NFL Network draft evaluator Daniel Jeremiah released his fourth, and final mock draft, of this year’s cycle on Wednesday evening.
Jeremiah makes a now-familiar selection for the New York Giants, giving them LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers.
In this scenario, I think the Giants’ selection would come down to Nabers versus Rome Odunze. To me, that’s a flip-a-coin decision. Taking...

Most Giants fans are set on a receiver in the first round
On the eve of the 2024 NFL Draft, New York Giants fans know who they want to see their team draft.
Well, the position, anyway. They’re pretty well split on exactly “who”.
In our final Reacts poll just before the draft, we asked Giants fans who they would want the team to draft in the first round. The choices offered were,
The community responded overwhelmingly that they want...

The Wolverines QB discusses the idea of playing in New York on the Rich Eisen Show
Football fans eagerly await the night before the 2024 NFL Draft, which is like Christmas Eve.
One intriguing prospect is J.J. McCarthy, the national champion quarterback of the Michigan Wolverines, who will receive much attention during Thursday night's first round of selections.
NFL Network Draft Analyst Daniel Jeremiah ranked McCarthy as the 20th prospect in his final draft board rankings ahead of Thursday night. Only quarterbacks Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, and Drake Maye ranked higher.
Earlier today, the 21-year-old McCarthy appeared on the [Rich...

What’s the riskiest position for an NFL team to spend a first-round draft pick on?
In a recent study going back to 2000, the position that “hit” the least in the first round was wide receiver. Of the 77 wide receivers taken in the first round of the NFL draft, only 27 percent went on to earn a second contract with the team that drafted them.
ESPN content producer @PaulHembo calculated the percentage of 1st-round picks that “hit” or “miss,” based upon whether that player signed a second contract with the team that drafted them.
The data...

The 2024 NFL draft is a mere day away and the rumors are flying in abundance. The New York Giants’ sixth pick has been a hot topic as most analysts have Big Blue taking a quarterback with that pick, or trading down, or even trading up for a better quarterback.
Even ESPN’s Dan Graziano can’t pin down what the Giants are going to do.
A month ago, many in the league believed their favorite quarterback in the class was McCarthy. If that were true, things have changed. The rumblings early this week: The Giants’ guy is Maye.
But that’s...

The 2024 NFL draft kicks off on Thursday night in Detroit and there hasn’t been a whole lot of movement trade-wise between the teams as many have expected.
New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen, who holds the sixth overall selection in the first round, says it’s just too early to tell what to expect come Thursday in the way of a trade.
“You’re going through all the possible scenarios, whether it’s moving up, staying where we are, or moving back,” Schoen told Giants.com. “There’s a lot of strategy that’s going into it right now.
“(The discussions) will pick up...

Is Nabers the receiver for the Giants?
LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers should be a very familiar name at this point. He’s been featured at the top of pretty much every mock draft of the 2024 NFL Draft cycle. He’s also been the player most commonly mocked to the New York Giants at sixth overall.
He’s one of the most explosive offensive players in the draft, highly productive, and plays a position that’s commonly cited as the Giants’ greatest weakness. It seems like a natural fit.
So what does Nabers really bring to the table, and is he the right...

Money aside, the team situation matters more in the long run
Thursday evening’s first round of the NFL Draft can’t get here soon enough. Just about everything that can be said about the top quarterback prospects has already been said, unless photos surface of one of them in a gas mask bong or having an accident driving an ATV this week.
What hasn’t been talked about very much, though, is these quarterbacks’ chances for success in the NFL depending on the team that selects them. At this point in 2023, Bryce Young and C.J. Stroud were considered QBs 1a and...

Could Fuaga be the best tackle to come out of this draft?
Who’s the top offensive tackle in the 2024 NFL Draft?
One name you’ll hear mentioned as being among the top tackles is Oregon State right tackle Taliese Fuaga. But could he wind up being the best tackle to come out of this draft class?
Fuaga doesn’t have the athletic upside of some of the other tackle prospects, however he’s a confident and sound technician who does just about everything well. He also plays with a mauler’s mentality while rarely putting himself in bad positions. Fuaga’s position as a...

Can GM Joe Schoen swing a deal to make it happen?
Multiple reports indicate that the New York Giants are trying to pry the No. 3 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft away from the New England Patriots in an effort to select North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye.
Jordan Ranaan and Dan Graziano of ESPN are both reporting that the Giants are hunting for Maye. Graziano said:
“A month ago, many in the league believed their favorite quarterback in the class was [J.J.] McCarthy. If that were true, things have changed. The rumblings early this week: The Giants’...

The New York Giants hold the sixth overall selection in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft.
Many mock drafters are predicting Big Blue grabs a stud wide receiver with the pick as the top four quarterbacks could be off the board by the time they are on the clock.
But, if by some chance, one of those four players — USC’s Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels of LSU, Drake Maye of North Carolina, and Michigan’s J.J. McCarthy — fall to the Giants, Trevor Sikkema of Pro Football Focus believes Maye would be the [best fit for general manager Joe...
