The New York Giants are faced with a pivotal decision as they hold the third overall pick in the upcoming 2025 NFL Draft. With Tennessee poised to select Miami quarterback Cam Ward first overall, the Giants may find themselves choosing between standout players like Colorado's Travis Hunter and Penn State's Abdul Carter. There's speculation about the potential selection of Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, but retired Giants legend Phil Simms doubts this path due to the current quarterback lineup, which includes Jameis Winston and Tommy DeVito. Simms emphasizes the need for the Giants to avoid repeating past mistakes of draft decisions that didn't address the team's broader needs.

General Manager Joe Schoen has reiterated the franchise's commitment to selecting the best available talent rather than drafting purely for need. The Giants have seen success with high-caliber picks like Malik Nabers, and they are keen on making impactful selections that can change their trajectory moving forward.
