The Giants hold the second overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
The question is how much that selection will impact the 2018 NFL season.
Thursday night we find out.
If they take a position player — running back Saquon Barkley, edge rusher Bradley Chubb and guard Quenton Nelson are the most likely candidates — then the focus shifts to the present. The Giants officially will be a win-now team, or at least a try-to-win-now team. They’ll have added a veteran cornerstone to their offensive line in free agency, a field general at middle linebacker for their defense, and entrusted the team to the hands of their 37-year-old two-time Super Bowl MVP at quarterback in the offseason.
