Good morning, New York Giants fans!

Other Giant observations
The Bengals are a team that could benefit from adding a running back, as Chase Brown is entering the final year of his deal. On top of that, the Bengals are close enough to the Giants that a trade down wouldn’t hurt New York as much. If that were the deal Cincinnati and New York agreed to, the Giants would acquire 10, 41, 110, and next year’s first-round pick. This means the Bengals would get Nos. 5, 105, 186.

2026 NFL Draft: Every NFL team’s most valuable trade asset | PFF
DI Dexter Lawrence. The Giants are firmly in rebuild mode, and their lone elite interior force stands out as a potential trade candidate. Lawrence earned a 78.4 PFF overall grade in 2025, including an 84.5 PFF pass-rush grade, continuing to impact games as both a run defender and interior disruptor.
While his run-defense performance dipped slightly from previous seasons, he has consistently been one of the league’s most dominant run defenders since entering the NFL. His strength and ability to collapse the pocket elevate any front seven, and his positional value makes him a rare asset. Trading Lawrence could bring back a strong return and provide the Giants with the capital needed to rebuild both lines.
2026 NFL Draft: Five biggest roster needs for all 32 teams | NFL.com
Biggest needs: OL, DL, WR, LB, CB. The offensive line and WR room could both use upgrades as the Giants look to build around Jaxson Dart. The interior O-line might be more of a focus up front, with starting tackles Andrew Thomas and Jermaine Eluemunor returning, while the receiving corps could benefit from more toughness/size/playmaking ability. The trenches figure to be a priority on defense, too, with a clear need for more talent next to Dexter Lawrence. There’s plenty of room to improve just about everywhere but edge rusher on that side of the ball.

LSU corner Mansoor Delane, possible Giant upgrade, runs blazing 40-yard dash | New York Daily News
LSU’s Mansoor Delane played three seasons at Virginia Tech before transferring for his final year at LSU. He has graded well in both man and zone coverage. He is scheme versatile, and he breaks well on the ball. Arm length and hand size are smaller than some other top corners of past drafts, but he shows a nose for closing on and playing the football.
This is a hardnosed player who played through a core muscle injury last season and still starred. He would make the Giants better, tougher and more well-rounded at a key position.
After the World Cup leaves in mid-July, MetLife Stadium is supposed to get snapped back in place as if nothing happened. The seats will be restored, the grass field will be removed, and the artificial turf will be reinstalled.
The reconstruction could affect the Giants and their co-tenants, the New York Jets’, preseason schedules. It may even determine where each team’s season openers are played. Both teams could conceivably open on the road.
