New York Giants
Former No. 7 overall pick has been resistant to the idea
Evan Neal is “open” to the idea of playing guard, New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen told media on Monday at the NFL owner’s meetings.
The 2022 No. 7 overall pick has failed in three NFL seasons to establish himself as a reliable right tackle, the position Schoen drafted him to play.
There was speculation last season that the Giants might move Neal to guard with Jermaine Eluemunor paying well at right tackle. When Neal recovered from offseason ankle surgery, though, he remained at right tackle.

Winston knew he would not be the only quarterback the Giants added
A sharply-dressed, thrilled to be a member of the New York Giants Jameis Winston introduced himself to the New York/New Jersey media on Monday. He said he knew he would not be the only quarterback the team added this offseason.
“My role was explained to me as there is an opportunity at the quarterback position that we’re looking forward to getting better at. I signed up for that because I’m looking forward to getting better and being my very best self myself,” Winston said.
“So that’s how was...

Giants continue to stockpile depth pieces
The New York Giants added another depth piece on Monday when they announced that backup linebacker/special teamer Ty Summers was re-signing with the Giants.
Summers, 29, played in 16 games with two end of the season starts on defense for the Giants last season. A core special teamer who played 272 special teams snaps (66%) last season, Summers ended the year with 29 tackles, second-most of his six-year career.
Summers spent three seasons with the Green Bay Packers after being drafted in the seventh round in 2019, and has also been with the [Jacksonville...

Is Royals one of the hidden gems in the 2025 NFL Draft?
The average fan could be forgiven for not recognizing Jalen Royals, the wide receiver from Utah State.
After all, Utah State isn’t a big school and rarely have a big school on their schedule. Also, Royals himself only played seven games in 2024 thanks to an injury, so he’s been out of sight for much of the year.
But the fact that he isn’t widely known, however, shouldn’t mean that he isn’t a very good prospect. Had Royals played for a bigger school, such as Alabama, LSU, or...

Those who listened to Schoen at the owner’s meetings don’t believe he is convinced the right QB will be available
Big Blue View is not in attendance at the NFL owner’s meetings. The overwhelming consensus of Giants media that is attendance and spoke with New York Giants GM Joe Schoen on Monday, though, is that the Giants do not appear to be planning on selecting a quarterback at No. 3 in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Pat Leonard of the Daily News wrote that Schoen “sounded very much like someone who would draft a non-QB at 3 today.”

Is Dart more than just hype?
Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart has steadily risen over the course of the Draft process, but has also been a very divisive figure in the quarterback discussion.
He was largely dismissed as a “system” quarterback for much of his time at Ole Miss, and largely overlooked in 2024 despite a record-setting senior year.
Dart started to get some recognition as Ole Miss climbed into the Top 10 and the College Football Playoff discussion, but his profile sank again with the loss to Florida. By the end of the week of practice prior to the...

GM speaks to team’s official website
In an exclusive interview with the team’s official website, New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen said the team “could go any position” at No. 3 in the 2025 NFL Draft.
“Since I’ve been here, we’ve tried to set it up on draft day that we could go play a game [that day]. I feel like we’re there now. That way you don’t get backed into a corner or force yourself to do anything,” Schoen said. “The only year that didn’t happen was probably my first year. We had to cut several players...

Let’s review the latest Pro Football Network mock
Take Shedeur Sanders at No. 3 in the 2025 NFL Draft or pass? That question may well face the New York Giants in a few weeks. In the latest Pro Football Network seven-round mock draft, Bradley Weissman says “take.”
Weissman says:
The New York Giants have signed Jameis Winston and Russell Wilson, so why would they take Sanders? The answer is simple: Neither Winston nor Wilson will be the answer, and the Giants must take a swing when given the opportunity....

Can Loveland realize his potential in the NFL?
The tight end class in the 2025 NFL Draft is a strong and deep one. This is the second year in a row in which we’ve seen a lot of athletic and talented tight ends coming into the NFL.
Michigan’s Colston Loveland would likely be the first tight end off the board in almost any other year, yet in this year he might wind up being the third. Loveland has a prototypical build, is — as you may expect from a Michigan tight end — a good blocker, and has a lot...
