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.

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.

Apr 25 Experts grade Giants' Round 1 picks - Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter, and Mississippi. quarterback Jaxson Dart.

Apr 25 The Giants took one of their strengths and made it stronger on Thursday night. After months of deliberation and speculation, the team selected Penn State edge defender Abdul Carter with the third overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. The 15th Unanimous All-American in program history and 2024 Nagurski-Woodson Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year will join a defensive front that already includes Dexter Lawrence, Brian Burns, and Kayvon Thibodeaux.

Apr 24 The New York Giants have expanded their coverage of the NFL Draft with exclusive content on both WFAN and NBC 4 New York/WNBC, in addition to Giants platforms. John Schmeelk will host a live reaction show on Giants.com, brought to you by Crestron, the presenting sponsor of the Giants Draft Room, immediately following the Giants' picks with Super Bowl champion Shaun O'Hara on Thursday and Friday, and with Paul Dottino on Saturday. 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.

Apr 17 Joe Schoen addressed the media at the Quest Diagnostics Training Center on Wednesday, just eight days before the 2025 NFL Draft begins in Green Bay. The general manager was asked about the latest developments in the evaluation process as the Giants hold eight picks, including the third overall selection and five in the top 105 slots. Meanwhile, the returning players are set to report for the offseason workout program on Monday.

Apr 16 If Colorado two-way player Travis Hunter gets drafted by the New York Giants third overall next week, he will get his wish to play both cornerback and wide receiver at the NFL level. "We would not be afraid to play him on both sides of the ball," Giants general manager Joe Schoen said Wednesday during his annual pre-draft news conference.

Apr 15 Why the New York Giants are retracing steps to work out Shedeur Sanders privately. At precisely 7:20 on Monday evening, we got word from practically all the NFL's insiders that the New York Giants are planning a private workout with Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders on Thursday as the final attempt to get around and put eyes on the NFL prospect. There are only three possible reasons this private workout is happening one week out from the first round of the April 24-26 draft.

Apr 13 While all the focus around the Giants' offseason has centered on the third overall pick and whether they'll draft a quarterback, New York already took some smart steps to improve the position. Bringing in Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston wasn't the headline move many fans hoped for, but it might be exactly what the Giants needed - especially given how unreliable quarterback play has been in recent years.

Apr 12 The Giants are not expected to select a quarterback at No. 3, but there is a lot of speculation that the Giants could either trade back into the latter portion of Round 1 or select one on Day 2. In those scenarios, Dart has always been considered a possibility.

Important NFL dates to know for 2025: Draft, free agency, offseason workout programs, deadlines, minicamps, preseason training camp.

Apr 6 2025 NFL draft: Joe Schoen, New York Giants in no-lose situation. After knocking it out of the park with his draft class last season, he's got a chance to better that performance this spring. The Giants will end up with one of four players: Miami quarterback Cam Ward, Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter, pr Colorado's Travis Hunter, the two-way star who is the reigning Heisman Trophy winner.

Apr 5 Giants sending 'big crew' to scout Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hutner at Colorado pro day. Head coach Brian Daboll's attendance at Colorado's pro day is particularly interesting. Daboll did not attend Miami's pro day, which featured the draft's consensus top quarterback Cam Ward, who is projected to go first overall to the Titans. He also previously stated that he would not be in attendance for Colorado's pro day.

Apr 4 State of Giants' offensive line: What it looks like pre-draft. The unique thing about quarterbacks in free agency is they do extensive homework on your roster. Russell Wilson liked what he saw from his new teammates who will be protecting him.

New York Giants' 2025 offseason workout dates announced. The dates for the Giants' 10 OTAs are: May 27-29, June 2-3, June 5, June 9-10, and June 12-13. Their mandatory minicamp will take place from June 17-19.

Apr 2 New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Tuesday at the NFL owner's meetings that he is not ready to make a decision on whether or not he will call offensive plays again in the 2025 season. If the Giants don't, or aren't able, to choose a quarterback at No. 3 in the 2025 NFL Draft it is possible that Heisman Trophy-winning cornerback/wide receiver Travis Hunter could be a Giant. "I think he's a good player both ways," Daboll said.

Apr 1 Special Report - Instead of risking their reputation (again), why don't the Giants draft a defensive player with the third pick in the first round of the April 24 draft? What? No quarterback? Unless they have every intention of winning the Super Bowl at the conclusion of this season, the recent signing of veterans Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston should provide enough savvy to get them to at least a mediocre level in the 2025 standings.
Then the following year, when the two geriatrics have retired, there will be plenty of time to draft a wizard - or to find another veteran. Well, before making such an outrageous statement, you'd better have someone in mind, right? Yeah, we do. Why not take Penn State's edge rusher, Abdul Carter, who is 6-3 and 250 and has caused scouts to compare him to (is this heresy?) Lawrence Taylor.

Mar 31 Giants must address this crucial weakness in the 2025 NFL Draft. One weakness that stands out following free agency is the interior of the Giants' defensive line. They added depth, signing veteran defensive linemen such as Jeremiah Ledbetter and Roy Robertson-Harris, however, they need another impact starter to pair with Dexter Lawrence.

Mar 30 The New York Giants signed quarterback Russell Wilson to a one-year, $10.5 million free agent deal that could nearly double in value if he hits on all of his incentives: regular season win incentive, playing time incentives, performance incentives, playoff incentives. The Giants put together a deal that is favorable and fair for both parties.
