The New York Giants could look to move back in the NFL Draft, but also have plenty of needs to fill on the roster, a look at the top prospects who might fill them
General manager Joe Schoen told reporters in Indianapolis that the New York Giants are open for business.
As Schoen, who is undertaking a long-overdue rebuild of a roster largely bereft of star players, should be.
Following the Atlanta Falcons’ decision to trade quarterback Matt Ryan to the Indianapolis Colts, there’s a very legitimate chance that general manager Terry Fontenot will look to either Liberty’s Malik Willis or Pitt’s Kenny Pickett to replace the franchise icon.
However, if the Falcons truly want their pick of the top-two quarterbacks in this year’s class, Fontenot and Atlanta will likely need to jump ahead of their division rivals, the Carolina Panthers, who are equally needy at quarterback.
Enter, the Giants, whom Peter King suggested this week are open to moving back in this year’s draft.
In this latest New York Giants’ seven-round mock draft projection, Schoen pulls off a blockbuster with the Falcons, acquiring the No. 8 overall pick in this year’s draft, Atlanta’s first-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, along with the No. 58 overall pick in the second round this year, in exchange for picks No. 5 and No. 67 overall.
