Scouts scour the country all year to get to this week.

In the wake of the 2018 NFL Draft, the Giants' six newest selections, along with a host of undrafted free agents and tryout players, report Thursday for rookie minicamp at the Quest Diagnostics Training Center.

Lockers have been set up for the newcomers. Here are the numbers of the six draft picks:
