East Rutherford – Now that the NFL draft is finished, the New York Giants“The list begins to take shape.
We have a much more complete image of how Big Blue wants to take the next step, a well -necessary jump of a season of 3 victories after three positive days which saw the director general Joe Schoen and the coach Brian Daboll add high level talents with a huge value to what they hope to be positions of difference.

There were afraid of certain fans and in the media that the managing director Joe Schoen would be reckless, throwing money from co -owners John Mara and Steve Tisch everywhere in what would be a perceived attempt to save face and his work.
Despite speculation, this did not happen; If anything, Schoen was patient and calculated.
Here is a projection and a depth of projection and depth. The backups are listed in order of their place perceived on the depth table.
Strategist
Starter: Russell Wilson
Reserves: Jameis Winston, Jaxson Dart, Tommy Devito
Breakdown: Given relatively inexpensive offers worth $ 10.5 million for Wilson and 8 million dollars over two years for Winston, the Giants have always been set up in the NFL draft and they did it in the DART selection. Wilson is the starter and Winston, on a 2 -year agreement, is the backup. The giants have a plan to develop darts, and they will not place expectations in theory until it is ready. Devito seems to be the strange man on the active list, but he has value like the only QB with experience in this offense. The giants still love Devito, so do not reduce the training team even if he has the opportunity to explore other opportunities later this summer. An unexpected injury could open a door that does not currently exist.
Back
Starter: Tyrone Tracy

Reserves: Devin Singletary, Cam Skattebo, Eric Gray, Turbo Miller, Rushawn Baker
Breakdown: The giants saw a lot to love from Tracy last season, but there was room for another back to complete Tracy, or for Tracy to be completed. It is Skattebo, whose powerful style and electricity personality should make him a favorite of fans. These two backs together should provide an excellent base here. Singletary is a solid veteran. We will see if Gray, a choice of fifth round two years ago, or Miller can push him for a place. Baker, a non -drained recruit from Elon, will join the team with a superb athletic profile.
Wide receiver
Beginners: Malik Nabers, Darius Slayton, Wan’Dale Robinson (Lit)

Reserves: Jalin Hyatt, Lil’jordan Humphrey, Ihmir Smith-Marseatte, Zach Pascal, Bryce Ford-Wheaton, Beaux Collins, Juice Wells, Dalen Cambre, Jordan Bly, Da’quan Felton, Nate McCollum, Montrell Washington
Breakdown: The presence of nabers is undeniable. Slayton’s return was unexpected, but it is a pillar and could be even more productive with Wilson’s superb deep ball. Perhaps Robinson will not take as much punishment if his quarters could be sharper with their anticipation. Hyatt status will be a fascinating watch. On paper, he should have a chance to extend his role with Wilson. But with Slayton, can he gain chances of the veteran or will it be better served elsewhere? Smith-Marseatte, the key turner, would love more shots at WR. Collins, Wells, Cambre, Bly, Felton and McCollum are all the UDFA signatures. The Wells could surprise early and in the camp if his relationship with his teammate of Ole Miss Jaxson Dart presents himself. He can be a sleeper and his presence could also help Dart throughout his development.
2024: Malik Nabers, n ° 6 overall
Offensive line
Beginners from left to right: Andrew Thomas, Jon Runyan Jr., John Michael Schmitz, Greg Van Roten, Eluemunor Jermaine
Advertisement
Reserves: G Jake Kubas, T / G Marcus Mbow, T James Hudson, T / G Evan Neal, Ol Joshua Ezeudu, G Aaron Stinnie, C Austin Schlottmann, Ol Stone Forsythe, C Jimmy Morrissey, C Bryan HUDSON, OL JAISON Williams
Breakdown: The giants see a lot to love in Mbow, their choice of fifth round of Purdue. He will work in Tackle and Guard in the intersane program, and it will be interesting to see how fast it happens. The depth of this group destroyed the plans they had at the start of the last two seasons. At present, the figures are there and the talent is more proven. Hudson is probably the first at Swing Tackle. Could this be Mbow with Kubas pushing Van Roten? Van Roten could be saving from Schmitz. Whatever plan they set in motion to Neal, either to stay in the tackle or to move inside to keep the trouble to be looked at. They have already decided not to recover the fifth year option in his recruit contract.
END
Starter: Theo Johnson

Reserves: Daniel Bellinger, Chris Manhertz, Thomas Fidone II, Greg Dulcich
Breakdown: An injury to the foot ended the recruit season of Johnson just when he started, so there are major projects for the former Penn State star before this year. Manhertz was a solid contributor last season. Bellinger’s role was limited to last year. The giants have shown some interest in tight range prospects, so adding a tight end was expected. Have they found a sleeper in the Nebraska Fidone? Dulcich joined the team late, so it will be interesting to see if he can show something this summer.
Defensive line
Beginners: Dexter Lawrence, Darius Alexander, Rakeem Nunezz
Advertisement
Reserves: Roy Robertson-Harris, Jeremiah Ledbetter, Elijah Chatman, Jordon Riley, Elijah Garcia, Dj Davidson, Casey Rogers, Cory Durden
Breakdown: The giants wanted to write a running mate to dexter Lawrence and it came early in the project with the addition of Alexander, who has a lot of tools worthy of his third -round choice status. Nunez-Rosses veterans, Robertson-Harris and Ledbetter will fight to win places in a planned rotation. The listed with the Rushers Edge, but the signatory of the free agent Chauncey Golston will be an interesting piece of chess at the front. He could also take into account the defensive line.
On -board rushers
Beginners: Brian Burns, Abdul Carter and Kayvon Thibodeaux
Advertisement
Reserves: Chauncey Golston, Victor Dimukeje, Tomon Fox, Trace Ford
Breakdown: The giants added a front line talent to No. 3 with Carter, and it would be to their detriment if they did not have it on the ground a majority of the time. They will have to be creative and Carter’s experience at the second off Ball should allow interesting combinations. There has been speculation about Thibodeaux as potential trade, but given the depth here, it would weaken unity. The giants pick up its fifth year option, but a long -term extension right now is another story. Ford is a UDFA signature.
Interior secondary
Beginners: Bobby Okereke and McAh McFadden
Advertisement
Reserves: Darius Muasau, Dyontae Johnson, Chris Board, Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles
Breakdown: The Giants count on Okereke to have a rebound season and for the continuous development of McFadden after a campaign in small groups. One of the neglected components of this defense and ensuring that it reaches its potential is to recover 2024 Okereke in the fold. This should be a priority. The first-round recruit Abdul Carter could also take into account here a sub-package capacity. This unit has young players who could intervene with Muasau and Johnson. The Board of Directors and Flannigan-Fowles are basic special teams.
Corner
Beginners: Paulson Adebo, Tae Banks, Dru Phillips (Nickel)
Advertisement
Reserves: Cor’dale Flott, Korie Black, Tre Hawkins, Art Green, Dee Williams, Nic Jones
Breakdown: The giants can certainly add talent to this group, but Adebo is a serious upgrade. This should allow banks to settle at CB2 with Phillips online for break in the slit. Flott showed signs of arriving at him on the border before an injury ended his year and his momentum again. Watch black to surprise.
Security
Beginners: Jevon Holland, Tyler Nubin
Reserves: Dane Belton, Raheem Layne, Anthony Johnson, Makari Paige, RJ Delancy, Tommy McCormick
Breakdown: The pairing of Holland and the Nubine could be special, if the giants discover how to use their talents to make a difference at the back. A number of UDFA recruits can exert pressure for a list point.
Specialists
Beginners: Snapper of Casey Kreiter, Jamie Gillan-Punter / Holder, Graham Gano-Kicker
Advertisement
Reserve: Jude Mcatamney-Kicker (International Pathway Program)
Breakdown: The giants seem ready to drive with what is, in good health, a solid group of veterans. The last two Gano seasons have been derailed by an injury, so he must avoid this and stay on the ground. Smith-Mersette has become a weapon as a turnover of clearance and kick-off.
Giants’ spring schedule
Recruits camp: May 9-10
OTA: May 27 to 28, May 30; June 2-3, June 5, June 9-10, June 12-13
MINICAMP compulsory: June 17-19
Training camp: Late July
Giants needs
What the giants need more than anything else is that their young players are developing at a faster rate – looking at you, Tae Banks – and for their veterans on the offensive line to be much more lucky in terms of injuries this season. If Schoen seems to add, the interior lines, the interior secondary, the cornerback and the safety can use more depth.
