Giants continuing learning as much as they can about the QB prospects in the 2025 draft class
NFL Draft prospects are continuing to roll into East Rutherford, N.J. for ‘30’ visits with the New York Giants. The latest eyebrow-raising player to visit is Syracuse quarterback Kyle McCord, per FOX Sports NFL insider Jordan Schultz.
McCord, who transferred from Ohio State to Syracuse before the 2024 season, is generally considered a mid-round possibility in the draft.
The Giants are known to have hosted quarterbacks Cam Ward, Shedeur Sanders, Jalen Milroe and Tyler Shough. They are also said to have spent “[considerable...

We’re looking at potential second- and third-day draft prospects
The New York Giants added a number of veteran players in free agency a year ago who helped stabilize the offensive line, at least while the group was healthy. This year, they have kept the band together by re-signing Greg Van Roten and Aaron Stinnie. They also added help on the fringes with the additions of swing tackle candidates James Hudson III and Stone Forsythe.
What the Giants have not successfully done during Joe Schoen’s tenure as GM is add quality young players to the pipeline. Only one of four offensive...

See if you would give up No. 3 in this scenario
In the many scenario-based 7-round New York Giants mock drafts I have done leading up to the 2025 NFL Draft, I have often selected Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart at No. 34 or via trade back into the later stages of the first round.
I think such a move is a reasonable objecting for Giants GM Joe Schoen.
One scenario I never explored in a mock draft was to trade DOWN from No. 3 with the intent of selecting Dart.
For fun over the weekend, I ran a mock...

Should the Giants consider a linebacker?
The linebacker position has long been a sore point for the New York Giants, or at least it was up until the last couple years.
Recently, however, the Giants have fielded one of the better linebacker units in the NFL. But even so, the Giants may see linebacker as a future need. After all, Micah McFadden is heading into the final year of his rookie contract after a breakout season and could depart in free agency.
UCLA’s Carson Schwesinger was one of the best linebackers in the country and coming off of a breakout...

Let’s see how many top-tier players the Giants actually have
The New York Giants are less than two weeks away from the 2025 NFL Draft. We want to take an honest look at the Giants’ roster ahead of the draft, using former Washington and 49ers general manager Scot McCloughan’s color-coded scheme, inspired by Mark Tyler’s article at Hogs Haven.
Here’s the color-coded rating system:
Blue - All-Pro/Pro Bowl Player
Red - Quality Starter (a really good football player)
Orange - Average Starter
Yellow - Below Average/Replacement Level
Green - Too New/Incomplete Rating

Good morning, New York Giants fans!

Where will Banks line up in the NFL?
The offensive line wasn’t a problem for the Giants in 2024, at least not until it was ravaged by injuries and depth players were forced onto the field and out of position.
But even before the injury bug hit, feeling was that the line was fine for now and needed long-term answers with several positions being manned by older vets. How they continue to build their line for the long term will be a story to follow throughout the process.
Kelvin Banks out of Texas is one of the more intriguing offensive...

Can the woebegone Giants get on the right track?
The New York Giants goal for the 2025 season is clear: Get better.
Owner John Mara laid down the directive to be better in 2025, and that the patience which kept Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll in their jobs is far from infinite.
After the season he empathized with the fans who had expressed their frustration.
“I didn’t need planes flying over me to tell me how upset the fans are. Nobody is more frustrated and upset than I am,” Mara said. “I appreciate the fact that [the fans] have hung...

Thoughts on Jalen Milroe, Shedeur Sanders, Abdul Carter, and more
We are less than two weeks away from the 2025 NFL Draft. Here are some New York Giants-related ‘things I think’ as we count down the days.
Todd McShay of The Ringer put an exclamation point on the rising tide of support for Jalen Milroe as a potential first-round pick when he had the New York Giants trade up to No. 24 to select the Alabama quarterback in his most recent mock draft.
McShay pointed to Brian Daboll’s work with Josh Allen, a quarterback...

A few new names show up in the middle and late rounds of this mock
We are still a couple of weeks away from the real 2025 NFL Draft. Which means you have to suffer through at least a couple more of my weekly 7-round New York Giants mock drafts.
This week, I tried to stick as close as possible to the decisions I actually believe could be made with the first couple of selections. I also tried to stick to my belief that the Giants need to address the offensive and defensive lines with their later selections, but since...

Can the versatile Ransom add to the Giants’ defense?
Could the New York Giants continue to build their secondary in the 2025 NFL Draft?
They’ve spent very significant resources over the last couple years, but could be rewarded with one of the best young secondaries in the NFL. If some of their recent draftees continue to develop, they could be at least good at each of the five positions in the secondary.
Ohio State defensive back Lathan Ransom is a highly versatile safety who could fit in a wide variety of roles in a defense. He played all over the...

Giants land Jaxson Dart in trade back into first round
You can’t wait for my next 7-round New York Giants mock draft! I know that, and I completely understand. To tide you over until it drops, here is the most recent 7-round Giants mock from Pro Football Network, complete with my thoughts.
PFN says:
After adding Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston, the New York Giants don’t necessarily have to reach for a quarterback at No. 3. Instead, they opt for a superstar two-way player in this NFL Mock Draft....
