The New York Giants' recent selection of Cam Skattebo in the 2025 NFL draft has sparked noteworthy discussion among fans and analysts. While the Giants made significant strides with their first-round picks, including standout talents like Abdul Carter and Jaxson Dart, the choice of Skattebo as a fourth-round running back has been met with skepticism. Experts have pointed out his proficiency in short-yardage situations, but his top-end speed remains a concern, raising questions about his potential as more than just a role player in a committee.

With Saquon Barkley gone, the Giants are moving towards a running back by committee approach, establishing a pairing of Skattebo with last year's surprise, Tyrone Tracy. This duo aims to replicate the success of the iconic Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs. General manager Joe Schoen appears to have a vision for the team's future, and whether Skattebo can meet expectations will be crucial for the Giants' offensive strategy.
