The New York Giants are in a very interesting spot. With head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen being retained, they both enter the 2025 season on the hot seat. The organization also needs to find their next franchise quarterback in a 2025 NFL Draft class that is lacking at the position. This staff is going to need to be a little creative.

In a recent 7-round mock draft, the Giants staff tried their best to find some answers on their roster. There are a lot of holes on the team, which makes drafting for them pretty easy. It’s simple, take the best player available and do a better job developing that talent. This mock draft is dedicated to betting on physical gifts and getting faster.

Round 1, Pick 3: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado

The Giants are in a really tough spot having a head coach and general manager on the hot seat, but no clear quarterback answer in sight for their first selection. Instead, they opt for arguably the best player in the 2025 class in Hunter. With needs at both cornerback and wide receiver, the Colorado star can give New York a lot of answers.

Round 2, Pick 34: Jalen Milroe, QB, Alabama

While the Giants weren’t willing to invest in Milroe at No. 3 overall, a second round swing is one you are going to take every time. Milroe is a dynamic athlete with a lot of passing tools to work with. Patience will be needed.

Round 3, Pick 65: Chase Lundt, OT, UConn

There is a strong argument that Lundt is the best offensive tackle that more people need to talk about. At around 6-7 and 300 pounds, Lundt is a really gifted mover. In fact, he’s one of the best overall athletes at the position in the class.

Round 4, Pick 134: Kaden Prather, WR, Maryland

Wide receiver Malik Nabers looks like a massive hit for the Giants, but they must continue to get more dynamic around him. Prather is a height-weight-speed freak who can create a lot of huge plays. If developed properly, Prather has starter and big play upside.

Round 5, Pick 153: Quincy Riley, CB, Louisville

Riley isn't the biggest cornerback but he’s incredibly instinctive and surprisingly physical. He might project even better inside at the nickel, where his tenacity could flourish.

Round 6, Pick 219: Jah Joyner, EDGE, Minnesota

Joyner didn’t quite take the step forward most hoped for, but the tools are still incredibly intriguing. At over 6-4 and nearly 260 pounds, Joyner is very long and twitchy. There is a lot to build on with the Golden Gopher standout.

Round 7, Pick 245: Jailin Walker, LB, Indiana

Walker is a player not enough people know or talk about, but that should change. While he isn’t an overly big linebacker at around 220 pounds, Walker runs like the wind. He is an outstanding athlete who should find a home on special teams if nothing else.

Round 7, Pick 256: Jalen Travis, OT, Iowa State

Investing into a 6-7, 320-pound offensive tackle with foot quickness and length is never a bad investment, especially at this point in the class. The technique and power profile needs to continue to improve for Travis, but the tools are certainly there.
