The 2021 NFL Draft has arrived, and the NY Giants have the opportunity to bolster a roster that came one victory shy of making the NFL Playoffs last season, beginning with the No. 11 overall pick in the first-round on Thursday night.
This marks the first time in Dave Gettleman’s tenure as general manager that the NY Giants’ first pick is scheduled to fall outside of the top 10 selections.
Despite a free agent spending spree, the NY Giants still have needs at linebacker, edge rusher, cornerback, and could stand to add a playmaking wide receiver if one of the top prospects is available when the Giants go on the clock in Round 1.
While it remains to be seen who will actually be available when the NY Giants are on the clock, these appear to be the top six players on the Giants’ draft board, according to conversations with league sources in recent days.
Here’s a look at everything you need to know about the NY Giants’ 2021 NFL Draft, including every pick the Giants own.
