Below are the latest projections by draft analysts for the Giants at No. 3. They will be updated as new ones are published.
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "Hunter is my top-ranked prospect in the class, and though I currently see him as a receiver in the pros, he could also play cornerback for New York. He can make a massive impact on either side of the ball, and he'll likely see at least some time on both sides. Perhaps the Giants take his ball skills and quickness and drop him at receiver opposite Malik Nabers to form a solid supporting cast around whomever is under center."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "The Giants do their best to make up for letting Saquon Barkley walk in free agency last year by adding a dynamic two-way player in Hunter."
Pick: Jaxson Dart, QB, Mississippi
Analysis: "The last time the Giants went all in on a QB from Ole Miss, it worked out pretty well. I know people have not been projecting Dart to go this high, but New York has a screaming need at the position."
Pick: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Analysis: "Ward is widely viewed as the top guy this year, but the quarterback rankings after him vary wildly from team to team."
Pick: Cam Ward, QB, MIami
Analysis: "I still need more time to percolate on whether Ward could be the Year 1 savior, à la Jayden Daniels, but the Giants probably feel compelled to pull the trigger here if they don't go the veteran-QB route."
Pick: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
Analysis: "Sanders' ball placement and ability to throw with touch are outstanding traits."
Pick: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
Analysis: "There is not a quarterback more prepared to deal with the bright lights and intense spotlight that comes with being the Giants' QB1. Sanders' experience directing a pro-style system could help Brian Daboll jump-start the offense with a rookie starter."
Pick: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Analysis: "Ward has a big-time arm, excels at finding passing windows and can create with his feet. He led the FBS with 39 touchdown passes in 2024 and was second in QBR (88.7)."
Pick: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Analysis: "Ward is the top QB of this class. His combination of physical ability, improvisational skills and poise in big moments make him an ideal selection for coach Brian Daboll. His 88.7 QBR was second in the FBS, and his 29 completions of 20-plus air yards tied for fifth."

Pick: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Analysis: "The Giants must sort out the offensive line in free agency if they end up taking a quarterback here. Ward's ability to limit turnovers while extending plays would get this offense back on track and open up Brian Daboll's play-calling. It's worth noting that there were simulations in which New York traded down a few spots and selected an offensive lineman instead (such as Kelvin Banks Jr., who has plenty of experience and can play RT); in those scenarios, the Giants would likely look to add a veteran passer in free agency and/or select one later in April's draft."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "With Ward off the board, the Giants grab one of the most dynamic players in recent memory in Hunter. The former Heisman winner provides a big impact at two separate positions of need for New York. My guess right now is that he'll play full time at corner and moonlight at receiver, but he just may be the type of outlier athlete who can play both sides of the ball full time."
Pick: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Analysis: "He's a serious-minded quarterback with a big arm and the ability to grow into a dangerous pitch-and-catch combo with Malik Nabers."
Pick: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
Analysis: "Sanders has a strong foundation as a passer, with fundamentally sound throwing mechanics that give him the tools to develop at the next level. However, his most impressive trait may be his ability to limit mistakes. Since moving to the FBS, he has produced a negatively graded throw on just 10.9% of his dropbacks, a 97th-percentile mark."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "Hunter immediately would improve whichever room he touches."
Pick: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
Analysis: "As the son of Coach Prime, Sanders has lived in the spotlight his entire life. So I don't think the New York stage will be too big for him. That said, for the the Giants to maximize their new QB's talents, they must improve the offensive line and find more playmakers to team with Malik Nabers."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "There are rumors of New York trading up to No. 1 overall for its preferred quarterback (I assume it's Cam Ward), but I'll leave that scenario for another mock. Instead, I could see them drafting the best football player in the class, Travis Hunter, and being very happy about what he and Malik Nabers can do for them for years to come."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "Travis Hunter is the best athlete in this draft class. We've had otherworldly cornerbacks and wide receivers in previous classes but he's a two-fer, able to dominate on both sides of the ball and take over games. The big question is where will the team that drafts him want him to play? And if it's, say, at cornerback, how big is the package of offensive plays? Because lining up for 120 snaps a game, like he did for the Buffs, isn't sustainable in the NFL."
Pick: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Analysis: "Ward isn't as polished as his Heisman highlights suggest but his quick release and flair for the dramatic could be big hits on Broadway."
Pick: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
Analysis: "If this feels like the worst kept secret in sports, it is because it probably is. The Giants are in the quarterback market."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "After seeing QBs get picked off in front of them, the Giants instead veer toward star power. Hunter is an excellent athlete and has a rare feel for the cornerback position. With Malik Nabers already showing off his star potential at receiver, there's no need to overwhelm Hunter as a two-way player right away."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "The most versatile player in college football could fill a need for the Giants on either side of the field. Travis Hunter is my WR1 and CB1 in the draft, making this one an easy fit for the Giants."
Pick: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
Analysis: "Unless Penn State's Drew Allar ends up declaring, Ward and Sanders are the only two quarterbacks I see going in the first round."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "If the G-Men decide to go the trade or free agency route to find their next QB and manage to keep the No. 3 pick, they could find themselves able to land the Heisman Trophy winner, too, who could help them on both sides of the ball."
Pick: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
Analysis: "The Giants are desperate for a quarterback addition. They probably would take whichever option was left over. In this case, Shedeur Sanders returns to the Big Apple where he attended the Heisman Trophy ceremony. Sanders is a prospect who has dealt with pressure his whole life and has experience captaining a rebuild."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "It doesn't matter which side of the ball he plays, but pairing him with Malik Nabers sounds like a good start."
Pick: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Analysis: "The Giants HAVE to go quarterback here, and Ward would be a fine get for New York at No. 3 overall."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "The Giants need to consider quarterback early, but it will also be difficult to ignore that Hunter may fall right into their lap to be an instant ball-hawking defensive star in New York while also giving Malik Nabers some receiving help at times."
Pick: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Analysis: "In the hypothetical world of this mock draft, Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll address the quarterback position in the veteran market, allowing New York to take the two-way star out of Colorado. In the real world, longtime beat writer Paul Schwartz says the Giants see Hunter as a cornerback, allowing me to say I'm filling a major need with this pick (... while also knowing Daboll wouldn't be able to resist giving the Heisman Trophy winner offensive snaps alongside Malik Nabers)."
Pick: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
Analysis: "His 49 big-time throws since 2023 tied for fifth, and his 1.6% turnover-worthy play rate in that span ranked second to only Bo Nix. Sanders also was recently seen playing catch with Giants star receiver Malik Nabers in the streets of New York."
Pick: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
Analysis: "I believe the front office sees a lot of parallels between Eli Manning and Sanders, and the Giants may be attempting to recreate that magic."
Pick: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Analysis: "Cam Ward isn't a perfect prospect under center, but his confidence, poise, and ability to threaten a defense both vertically and horizontally will expand a playbook. Ward and Malik Nabers would be a fun, youth-infused tandem to watch develop over the next few years."
Pick: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Analysis: "The Giants secure the best quarterback in the draft to pair with Brian Daboll and Mike Kafka's offense. Cam Ward joined a strong group of Power 4 quarterbacks—Jayden Daniels, Hendon Hooker, C.J. Stroud, Mac Jones, Joe Burrow, and Kyler Murray—who have led the nation in total offense, and his trajectory should be similar to others on that list."
