New York Giants' 2026 NFL Draft Picks and Needs

Picks: Nos. 5, 10, 37, 105, 145, 186, 192, 193

Top Needs: Offensive help, DL, DB

After trading Dexter Lawrence for the 10th overall pick, the Giants can add a pair of impact rookies at the top of the draft. Improving the supporting cast of second-year quarterback Jaxson Dart should be the top priority early.

The Giants could use another offensive playmaker with Cam Skattebo and Malik Nabers both recovering from significant injuries. Whether that comes in the form of a receiver such as Ohio State's Carnell Tate or an all-around weapon like Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love is irrelevant.

New York also needs a starting-caliber interior lineman, though it probably won't take one in the top 10. Prospects like Georgia Tech's Keylan Rutledge and Texas A&M's Chase Bisontis should draw interest if available early on Day 2.

The Giants also require help in the secondary, and they obviously now need a replacement for Lawrence. Don't be surprised if they snap up a defensive back such as Ohio State's Caleb Downs or LSU's Mansoor Delane early before coming back for a D-lineman like Georgia's Christen Miller or Florida's Caleb Banks.
