The New York Giants' first-round pick has been finalized.
After beating the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, the Giants squandered their chance to secure the No. 1 overall pick.
In fact, had the Giants lost, they would have had in the No. 1 spot because the Las Vegas Raiders beat the Kansas City Chiefs in the late window.
That said, according to Tankathon, the Giants will be picking from the No. 5 slot in the 2026 NFL draft.
New York was the only team in the NFL to finish with four wins.
The Giants will be picking behind the Raiders, New York Jets, Arizona Cardinals and Tennessee Titans, who finished from No. 1 to No. 4.
The good news is, the Giants don't need a quarterback thanks to the emergence of rookie signal-caller Jaxson Dart.
As far as what direction the Giants could go with their first pick, they have a slew of options with several holes to fill up and down the roster.
The Giants could opt to beef up their offense, address a position of need on defense, like cornerback, for example, or they could opt to trade back in order to acquire more draft capital to assist in their rebuild.
But first things first, the Giants have to decide who their next head coach will be.
Perhaps New York will make a change at general manager, but for now it looks like Joe Schoen is safe.
