Other Giant observations
The Aaron Rodgers waiting game: Two QBs, three teams wait on Kevin O’Connell and Vikings’ call | The Athletic
Rodgers has been targeted by the Steelers and Giants but has essentially put both teams on hold while he waits for clarity regarding the Vikings’ situation. If Minnesota ceases to be an option, it’s also possible that Rodgers will turn down both the Steelers (a 2024 playoff team) and Giants and instead opt for retirement.
To be sure, pursuing Rodgers would be an organizational decision, Minnesota Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell is the person with the most on the line, and it will only happen if he’s comfortable with the scenario. The bottom line: There are a lot of people waiting on Rodgers’ decision. And Rodgers, at least for now, is waiting on O’Connell.
Making the case why the Giants are the best fit for Aaron Rodgers
Every NFL team’s biggest need following free agency | PFF
New York Giants: Quarterback. Giants primary owner John Mara laid down the law in his postseason press conference, placing general manager Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll on the hot seat while acknowledging that finding a franchise quarterback is the team’s top priority.
Well, the only quarterback on New York’s roster as of March 16 is Tommy DeVito. The Giants seem to be in the Aaron Rodgers sweepstakes with Russell Wilson as a Plan B. Even if one signs with New York, it shouldn’t preclude the team from selecting Cam Ward or Shedeur Sanders in the draft.

2025 NFL Draft: Cam Ward is much more than the top QB of a weak class. Here’s why | Yahoo Sports
There’s a lot to like about Ward’s game, and Nate Tice thinks it would slot him favorably in 2024’s lauded draft class. But can you win *because* of Ward in the NFL?
New York Giants mock draft 3.0: A Big Blue trade in latest projection | The Record
Round 4, Pick No. 104: Jordan Phillips, DT, Maryland. Phillips had himself a week at the East-West Shrine Bowl, showcasing good power and explosion on the interior. He’s an early draft entrant still just 20 years old who was included on Bruce Feldman’s Freaks List in The Athletic for his 665-pound squat and 365-pound overhead press. The Tennessee transfer could fit with the Giants as a 3-technique, and it’ll be interesting how high his all-star performance boosts his value. But in a loaded class at the position, Phillips could emerge as one of those Day 3 gems who should have gone way earlier.
