Making the case: How should the Giants handle the running back position?

The New York Giants seem to have interest in the running back position just four years after investing the No. 2 overall selection in Saquon Barkley. The Giants have reportedly had several running backs in for top-30 visits. Iowa State’s Breece Hall, Alabama’s Brian Robinson, and Georgia’s James Cook were among the group, and they all figure to be selected somewhere on Day 2.

New York currently has Barkley playing on his fifth-year option, Matt Brieda, Antonio Williams, Gary Brightwell, and Sandro Platzgummer on the roster. The Giants interviewing Hall, Robinson, and Cook could be due diligence, but investing maybe the second third-round selection or a Day 3 pick in a running back makes a lot of sense if the Giants aren’t willing to commit to Barkley long-term.
