May 14 Giants record prediction 2025: 5-12. There's little doubt the Giants have made significant strides in improving the roster heading into 2025. The defense could finish inside the top 10 with an impressive front seven comprised of Dexter Lawrence, Brian Burns, Kayvon Thibodeaux and Abdul Carter. The secondary also got a facelift with playmakers in Adebo and Holland. The biggest issue for the G-Men is the NFC East.

May 13 Winning games is the ultimate goal, but some other factors could influence whether Giants GM Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll return beyond. The obvious answer would be way more wins than the three the team mustered up last season-ideally a better-than-.500 record, which in a 17-game regular-season schedule would translate to nine wins at minimum. But there are some other metrics that the Giants can aim for that would show improvement in areas where they have struggled late.

May 12 From folk hero at Arizona State to rookie in the Big Apple, Cam Skattebo is ready to prove himself all over again. A fifth-place finisher in Heisman Trophy voting last season, Skattebo is fresh off a collegiate campaign in which he tallied 2,316 yards from scrimmage with 24 touchdowns. Those numbers, however prolific, mean nothing for what he might accomplish with the New York Giants.

May 11 The Giants completely reshaped their quarterback room in the offseason by signing veterans Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston. They followed those signings up by trading up to draft Jaxson Dart. So, if the Giants feel like they could afford moving off of one of their veterans in the room, they could be a great trade partner for the New Orleans Saints. Derek Carr announced that he is retiring. This puts the Saints in a challenging situation without a true veteran QB option on their roster.

May 10 Rookie Minicamp Report: What we learned on Day 2. The Giants wrapped up their 2025 Rookie Minicamp on Saturday with their second practice of the weekend. A beautiful but windy day allowed the team to practice outside on the final day. Coach Brian Daboll spoke to the media before the players took the field, and Day 3 picks Marcus Mbow, Thomas Fidone II and Korie Black spoke to reporters after the practice session.

May 9 Rookie Minicamp Report: What we learned on Day 1. Jaxson Dart's first NFL completion was to... ...Jermaine Terry II, a tight end from Oregon State who was one of 13 undrafted rookie free agents to sign with the team. Similar to previous seasons, draft picks were mostly limited to individual drills at rookie minicamp to ease them in and get them ready to jump into Phase 2 with the veterans. Dart, however, did participate in 7-on-7 drills.

May 9 Abdul Carter split the difference, choosing to wear No. 51 with the New York Giants after flirting with the possibilities of the retired numbers of legends Lawrence Taylor and Phil Simms. Carter asked Taylor to wear his famed No. 56 after being selected third overall in the NFL draft last month. He was rebuffed. He then contemplated Simms' No. 11, before that door was closed by the family of the retired quarterback.

May 8 Special Report - Scott Landstrom calls the Giants draft the most promising draft he has ever reviewed in 17 years. Starting off with - First Round, #3: Abdul Carter, DE-LB, Penn St., 6-3. OK, let's start that I have not heard as many comparisons to the legendary Lawrence Taylor about a pass-rushing outside linebacker since Taylor was drafted second-overall in 1981 (44 years ago).
Carter merely led the nation in "tackles for losses" with 24.5, and ESPN analyst Ryan Clark had a hilarious story about his son (who played for Notre Dame this season) meeting with the offensive line after they came off the field in a VICTORIOUS 27-24 National Playoff Semifinals win against Penn State, and having to console the offensive linemen, such was the abuse Carter inflicted on them during that game.

May 7 Edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux said he is "super excited" about the New York Giants' top draft pick, even if he plays the same position and could have a similar role. The Giants took Abdul Carter with the third pick in this year's draft, adding him to a talented outside linebackers room that includes Thibodeaux, the No. 5 pick in 2022, and Pro Bowler Brian Burns. That doesn't concern Thibodeaux, who had the fifth-year option in his rookie contract officially exercised last week.

May 6 How the Josh Allen process led the Giants to Jaxson Dart. The Giants looked high and low for the guy with some of the same qualities the Bills' quarterback once showed New York GM Joe Schoen and the requisite talent to win at the position.

May 3 Jaxson Dart 'can't wait' to learn in veteran-laden quarterback room. Eli Manning isn't the only quarterback who had - and will have - an influence on Jaxson Dart. The Utah native was 10 years old when Russell Wilson won Super Bowl XLVIII at MetLife Stadium and, like many fans his age, owned a No. 3 Seahawks jersey. Unlike most kids, however, Dart grew up to be a first-round draft pick. Now they wear the same uniform.

May 2 Giants WR Malik Nabers sends a warning to team's QBs. Nabers is sending Dart, Wilson and the rest of the QB room a clear warning before the season. If they're not targeting him, the Giants are going to have an issue on their hands. Nabers was targeted the second most times (170) in the league in 2024. Only Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase received more targets with 175.

May 1 Giants' Abdul Carter experienced prank call like Shedeur Sanders, others on draft night: report Caller said they were with the Jaguars, who chose 2nd overall in the draft. The prank said that Carter was going to be taken with the second pick. Several others had to deal with fake calls, but none more public than Shedeur Sanders. The NFL announced on Wednesday it is fining the Atlanta Falcons $250,000 and defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich $100,000 over the leak of Sanders' private phone number used for draft day calls.

Apr 30 Giants build a defense-first identity through draft. General manager Joe Schoen denied that this was a preplanned undertaking this offseason. Schoen conceded the depth element was something they focused on this offseason. The Giants now have more than two proven NFL defensive linemen who can be part of an interior rotation. They have three potential double-digit sacks guys off the edge.

Eli Manning pursuing minority ownership stake in New York Giants. Following in the footsteps of Tom Brady and Richard Seymour, two former players who recently became minority owners of the Las Vegas Raiders, New York Giants legend and quarterback Eli Manning is reportedly in the midst of putting together a bid to buy a minority stake in the team in played 16 years for.

Apr 29 For whatever reason, Joe Schoen and his staff now seem to be better drafters than they were when they first came in. In some sense that's not a surprise. Schoen was hired by the Giants on January 21, 2022. Brian Daboll was hired as head coach a week later. That gave them less than three months on the job to evaluate the existing roster, get to know their college and pro personnel departments mostly inherited from the previous regime, and deal with free agency.

Former Giants
Isaiah Simmons was the eighth overall pick in the 2020 draft by the Arizona Cardinals, where he played three seasons. In those three seasons, Simmons had four interceptions, two fumble recoveries and 7.5 sacks. He spent the past two seasons as a backup with the New York Giants. A reserve role wasn't the plan for Simmons when he entered the NFL as a premier prospect out of Clemson.

Apr 28 Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart reveals surprising take on new teammate. Dart has been wanting to team up with Jameis Winston well before his name was called on Day 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft. Dart will join veterans Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston, and Tommy DeVito in the quarterback room, giving him a clean path to a true redshirt season, should he need it.

Apr 27 Grading every New York Giants pick in the 2025 NFL draft. The New York Giants had a banner night on Thursday at the 2025 NFL Draft, perhaps their best night in decades. General manager Joe Schoen, whose tenure began with two rocky drafts, is following up on his strong 2024 performance with a 1-2 combination that has simply knocked Giant fans out. In fact, he may have hit two grand slams in the same inning.

Apr 26 Why did the New York Giants draft Darius Alexander? Joe Schoen knew entering the offseason that he had to rebuild the depth of the team's defensive front seven, particularly the interior defensive line. Schoen drafted Abdul Carter No. 3 overall to add a dynamic pass rusher on the edge. In free agency, he added players liks Chauncey Golston, Roy Robertson-Harris and Jeremiah Ledbetter. The coup de grace to the interior defensive line rebuild came Friday night when the Giants added defensive tackle Darius Alexander with the first pick of Round 3, No. 65 overall.

Apr 25 Update - With the first pick in Round 3 of the 2025 NFL Draft, No. 65 overall, the New York Giants selected Darius Alexander, a defensive tackle from Toledo. The Giants did not have a selection in Round 2 after Thursday's trade up for Haxson Dart, in which they gave up pick No. 34.

The shows will stream live on Giants.com, the Giants mobile app, Giants TV and Giants YouTube.

Apr 23 The Cleveland Browns and New York Giants are fielding trade inquiries for their early picks in the NFL draft, sources told ESPN's Peter Schrager. Although the Tennessee Titans announced Tuesday that they are not entertaining offers for the first overall pick, sources told Schrager that the Browns, who have the second pick, and the Giants, who pick third, have received trade calls over the past 48 hours -- and that neither team is outwardly rejecting those overtures. All 32 teams in the NFL still have their original first-round pick this year, which has seen a historic lack of trades in the lead-up to the draft.

Apr 22 Russell Wilson got a head start on bonding with his new New York Giants teammates the last few weeks during some casual workouts in the sun and warmth of San Diego and Atlanta. And now, the real work has started - at the Giants' facility. Wilson and his teammates reported Monday for the start of offseason workouts, where coach Brian Daboll addressed the entire team and introduced new players. Wilson is one, of course. And so is fellow quarterback Jameis Winston, both of whom Daboll had speak to the offense at the team's first official gathering.

Apr 21 The scouting process for the New York Giants to find their next franchise quarterback ended Saturday in Louisville, Kentucky. That is where they held a final private workout with former Louisville QB Tyler Shough after traveling to Alabama and Colorado in previous days to do the same with Jalen Milroe and Shedeur Sanders, respectively.
The Giants also had a private workout with former Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart earlier this spring. Those four quarterback prospects are the most likely candidates to be selected by the Giants in this year's NFL draft, which begins Thursday night.

Apr 20 With edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux's future with the New York Giants murky, Tampa Bay might be looking to add the young pass rusher to help their defense this upcoming season. With edge Brian Burns and defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence looking for new contracts, moving him now for premium draft capital could make sense. That's where Tampa Bay comes into the equation.

The San Francisco 49ers are eyeing a potential trade for New York Giants edge-rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux as they prepare for the 2025 season. Thibodeaux could fill a significant gap, especially after a solid 2023 season where he accumulated 5.5 sacks and 17 quarterback hits. However, any trade would hinge on the Giants' willingness to part ways with him.

If the Browns take Travis Hunter at No. 2 overall and Abdul Carter is picked by the Giants at No. 3 overall, Thibodeaux could be unofficially demoted to the team's third pass rusher behind Carter and Brian Burns. Thibodeaux, who has 21 sacks in three seasons, has been good, but not great, in the pros. Perhaps Detroit could be the spot where he figures it all out.

Apr 19 The New York Giants front office brass will meet with Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough on Saturday during a private on-campus workout as they continue to scout the top quarterbacks in the draft. While the Giants have a temporary solution at quarterback with Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston, they may still be planning to grab a developmental quarterback if one becomes available.

Eli Apple had, to say the least, a tumultuous and disappointing two-plus seasons with the New York Giants. In a recent interview, it seems like Apple, now 29 with a wife and daughter, has grown from his immature days with the Giants. Eli Apple shares thoughts on difficult tenure with New York Giants.

Meanwhile, the returning players are set to report for the offseason workout program on Monday.
