Ranking the 10 best draft picks in NY Giants history

Over the course of the NY Giants long history in which they've won eight championships (four Super Bowls), the team has drafted some truly elite talent. Whether it be obvious picks to make in the first round, or finding gems in the later rounds, New York always finds a way to bring in great players through the draft.

These 10 players were all drafted by the Giants at one point or another and made a massive impact. Some were high-round, elite prospects, and others are some incredible draft steals:

10. RB Tiki Barber

It may have taken him time to catch on. However, once in his prime, there may not have been a better running back in the NFL than Tiki Barber. While he, unfortunately, retired earlier than he should have, costing him a Super Bowl ring, there's no doubt that Barber is one of the most talented players the Giants have ever seen.

Drafted 36th overall in the 1997 NFL Draft, it would take Barber four seasons to reach his first 1,000+ yard campaign. Once reaching this goal, though, Barber would rip off 1,200+ yards in five of his next six seasons. In addition to this, Barber also made three Pro Bowls, an All-Pro appearance, and even came fourth in MVP voting during the 2005 season.

In his best season, Barber ran the ball 357 times for 1,860 yards, and nine touchdowns while simultaneously catching 54 passes for 530 yards and two touchdowns. In addition to being easily the best running back in Giants' history, he's also one of the team's best receivers. Barber ranks second all time in receptions and fourth all-time in receiving yards in Giants history.
