NFL.com Shocks with Bold Draft Prediction: Giants Poised to Land Saquon 2.0?

April 16, 2025 RAYMOND 0

NFL.com’s Adam Rank turned heads this week with a bold and unexpected prediction for the New York Giants. In his lone mock draft — which he doesn’t revise — Rank bypasses the usual suspects like Abdul Carter, Travis Hunter, or even a quarterback. Instead, he urges the Giants to take a swing at Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty, the top running back in the draft.

Rank explained on Mock Draft Live that this pick would be a symbolic move — a way to help Giants fans move on from Saquon Barkley’s departure to the rival Eagles. “You need a game-changer who will help the fans forget Saquon just won a Super Bowl with Philly,” Rank said. “Take Ashton now and let your fan base love again.”

Are the Giants About to Shock the Draft Again with Another Saquon Move?

The New York Giants hold the third overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, and with it, three clear paths seem to emerge: drafting a potential franchise quarterback in Shedeur Sanders, targeting two-way phenom Travis Hunter, or reinforcing the defense with elite edge rusher Abdul Carter. Yet, as history has shown, the NFL Draft rarely sticks to the script.

On the Good Morning Football podcast, NFL insider Mike Garafolo floated a surprising idea—not as a report, but as a bold opinion: what if the Giants took Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty at No. 3? With Jeanty’s stock on the rise, Garafolo suggested he could be a top-five pick, calling attention to his growing appeal. While the pick would undoubtedly shock the league and echo the controversial Saquon Barkley decision, it would also spark instant debate about positional value, roster building, and the future of the Giants’ front office.
