Again on March 28, ESPN NFL Draft analyst Matt Miller revealed that the New York Giants “loving” Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders was “the worst-kept secret within the league” because the Giants proceed to ponder how they may spend the third general choose of the 2025 NFL Draft.
In keeping with a mock draft produced by Bruce Feldman of The Athletic that was printed on Wednesday, the Giants would take Miami’s Cam Ward over Sanders if Huge Blue as a substitute of the Tennessee Titans possessed the primary alternative of the upcoming player-selection course of.
“I’ve heard since bowl season from of us contained in the Miami program that the New York Giants love Ward,” Feldman wrote, “however the Titans have a giant want too and received’t cross on the 2024 ACC Participant of the Yr.”
It was reported in late March that the Titans need three first-round picks “or one thing of that worth” to surrender the precise to pick Ward. As of the primary Wednesday of April, neither the Giants nor every other membership was anticipated to match that asking value.
“No method they aren’t selecting Ward,” one unnamed staff government mentioned concerning the Titans throughout a latest chat with The Athletic’s Mike Sando. “They’re making an attempt to drum up a unprecedented deal, however nobody goes to offer that.

Except the Browns are keen to do “one thing silly” to get Ward, they reportedly may take both Colorado extensive receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter or Penn State pass-rusher Abdul Carter through the draft’s second choose. Such a situation would enable the Giants to both get Sanders with out having to surrender extra property or seize a Day 1 starter (Hunter or Carter).
Maybe Giants basic supervisor Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll are amongst these throughout the league who allegedly would slightly take Ole Miss’ Jaxson Dart later within the draft than choose Sanders at choose No. 3.

Nonetheless, some assume the Pittsburgh Steelers would choose Dart if he fell to the draft’s twenty first general choose.
