New York Giants' 2024 NFL Draft Outlook: 12th Most Draft Capital, Six Picks

Written by Published

The New York Giants are gearing up for the 2024 NFL Draft, and they're sitting pretty with the 12th most draft capital value, as per Tankathon. This ranking is determined by assigning a value to each of the 257 draft picks, with the cumulative total of a team's selections deciding their spot. The Giants' total value stands at 809.9 points, thanks to their picks:

- 6th overall: 342.4
- 47th overall: 151.3
- 70th overall: 122.5
- 107th overall: 90.3
- 166th overall: 55.6
- 183rd overall: 47.8

Even though they're in the top half of the NFL by this measure, the Giants' high ranking is somewhat inflated due to their challenging 2023 season, which saw them picking near the top of each round.

Despite their relatively high value, the Giants only have six draft picks, placing them among the teams with the fewest selections this year. This limitation might impact how aggressive they can be in trading up during the draft. Unless they can strike a deal that involves using their 2025 draft capital, any move up the board would likely require them to sacrifice what are already a limited number of picks.
