The New York Giants made a significant impact in the 2025 NFL Draft, highlighted by their selection of Abdul Carter with the third overall pick and promising quarterback Jaxson Dart. However, the most noteworthy player may be undrafted guard Jake Kubas, poised to challenge Evan Neal for a starting role. Kubas, who had a strong rookie season with a 76.7 run-block grade, is seen as a potential game-changer for the Giants' offensive line.

With the Giants declining Neal's fifth-year option, his career in New York hangs in the balance. The team also added lineman Marcus Mbow from Purdue, indicating a strategic shift towards bolstering their offensive line depth. As the Giants prepare for the upcoming season, the competition for starting positions, especially at guard, could define their success in 2025.
