NY Giants 2022 NFL Draft live tracker and updates
Welcome to our NY Giants 2022 NFL Draft live tracker. We will provide up-to-the-minute news, rumors, updates, picks, and everything else in between for Rounds 1-7 of this year’s draft. The Giants had a wonderful first-round that saw them draft defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux and offensive tackle Evan Neal.
On Day 2, the Giants had some mixed reactions from fans when it came to their three three draft selections. They went with wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson which didn’t make much sense, a decent offensive guard in Joshua Ezeudu, and a developmental cornerback in Cordale Flott.
Heading into Day 3 in this year’s draft, new general manager Joe Schoen will hopefully bring in some hidden gems to help balance things out after an amazing Day 1 and a perplexing Day 2. The Giants still have some areas of need to address on Day 3 as this is the time to find players that not only fit the system but the overall new culture that is being established to try and bring back the franchise to its winning ways again.
When it comes to this live tracker, please be sure to hit refresh as much as you’d like as it will only have updates from verified and legitimate sources. This live tracker will also have all official selections by the Giants as they happen in real-time.

Daboll said they have a "variety" of tight ends right now. They'll see what they can do when they get into OTAs and how they can track a ball.

Daboll said you'll see in OTAs and training camp that they're big believers in "mixing and matching" players. The more versatility, the better.

Schoen said they will probably look to add defense with undrafted free agents. "The roster is never finished."

Might be time to implement those "contingency plans.''
GM Joe Schoen: "Everyone's going to come in and compete, no matter where they were drafted."
