Giants Anticipate Travis Hunter's Dual Impact in NFL Draft

The New York Giants are considering drafting Colorado's Travis Hunter with the No. 3 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, with general manager Joe Schoen expressing confidence in Hunter's ability to contribute as both a wide receiver and a cornerback. Schoen emphasized Hunter's versatility and talent, noting that the Giants would not hesitate to play him on both sides of the ball to address needs in their secondary and at wideout. Hunter, who won the 2024 Heisman Trophy, could provide an immediate boost to a Giants defense that struggled with interceptions and to an offense seeking another dynamic pass-catcher. The team is also focusing on building depth through mid-round draft picks, a strategy that proved successful in the 2024 draft with several Day 2 and 3 selections now projected as starters. There is speculation the Giants may pass on selecting a quarterback in the first round, opting instead to develop one from later rounds, especially given recent free agent signings. The front office appears intent on replicating last year's draft success to strengthen the roster moving forward.
