New York Giants fans are lost even after a surprise win. Big Blue ended their losing streak but seemingly lost out on getting the No. 1 draft pick.
As reported on ESPN, the East Rutherford, N.J.,-based organization played their last game of the 2024-2025 NFL season. On Sunday (Dec. 29), they faced the Indianapolis Colts and beat them 45-33. While this ended the team’s very challenging season on a bright note, this cost the New York Giants what seemed to be a lock at the No. 1 spot for the forthcoming NFL Draft. As a result of their victory and the Oakland Raiders and Jacksonville Jaguars also winning their final games, there is a major shake up with the order of the draft.
With the close of the season, the New England Patriots now have the first pick with the Tennessee Titans at two, the Cleveland Browns at three, the New York Giants at four and the Jacksonville Jaguars at five. According to several football analysts and insiders, Travis Hunter is expected to be the No.1 draft pick by the New England Patriots. The 2024 Heisman Trophy winner had a spectacular college season by playing over 1,400 snaps on both sides of the ball. Other notable college players hitting the draft include Cam Ward, Shedeur Sanders and Ashton Jenty.
