It seems like a pretty good beat that the New York Giants will select a running back at some point in the 2025 NFL Draft.
That won’t happen at No. 3. GM Joe Schoen has always questioned the wisdom of taking running backs in the first round, and after moving on from Saquon Barkley taking Ashton Jeanty at No. 3 would be hypocritical.
A running back is unlikely to be the pick at No. 34. The Giants may use that pick to select, or trade up to select, a quarterback. If not, adding to the trenches seems like the best plan.
