Fansided

● By Chris Landers
New York Giants fans (and, if they're being honest, the team's front office) are likely still kicking themselves over last weekend's win over the Indianapolis Colts, in which Drew Lock found the game of his life at the worst possible time to knock Big Blue out of the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. The Giants were two losses away from being in the catbird's seat next spring, with every option — quarterback, Travis Hunter, trade down — at their disposal. Now, control of the draft is out of their hands. But there was at least a little bit of good news in Week 18. The New England Patriots put together a self-defeating win of their own over the Buffalo Bills, dropping down to the No. 4 pick in the draft — and bumping the Giants up one spot to No. 3. With two QB-needy teams ahead of New York in the Tennessee Titans and Cleveland Browns, finding the next franchise quarterback might not be in the cards. But that doesn't mean that the Giants aren't well-positioned to add some impact talent at positions of need next spring.
