The New York Giants' offensive core is coming together.
Jaxson Dart at QB. Cam Skattebo at RB. Malik Nabers at WR. That is, if Skattebo and Nabers can recover from their injuries by the start of next season.
They still could use more, though.
The 2026 NFL Draft will be a prime spot to target another offensive talent that can help Dart.

ESPN's Jordan Raanan wrote on Monday about the two main possibilities, either a wide receiver or an offensive lineman.
"The Giants still need another offensive threat who strikes fear into opposing defenses," Raanan writes. "They have some solid players after wide receiver Malik Nabers but no real explosive playmakers. Plus, a decision must be made on fellow receiver Wan'Dale Robinson, who is a free agent after the season. New York's offensive line is playing well right now -- it's ranked in the top half of the league in pass block win rate -- but there are questions for the future. Right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor is having a strong season and is in line for a payday as an impending free agent. Will he stay in New York? Left guard Greg Van Roten is also a free agent and 35 years old. One could argue that the Giants could greatly benefit from taking a Pro Bowl guard or tackle at the top of the draft."

The offensive line is key, particularly in keeping Dart healthy. But the young QB will be crucial in that, too, given his tendency to scramble and to finish runs through contact.
The wide receiver need will likely be known by mid-March, based on whether the Giants re-sign the talented slot player Robinson.
One way or the other, the Giants owe it to Dart to continue to surround him with talented players. The draft will be an obvious time to do that.
