With the 2025 NFL Draft quickly approaching, New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll has addressed two of the most exciting prospects: Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders.

The Giants have been exploring their options at key positions this offseason. While they already secured veteran quarterbacks Jameis Winston and Russell Wilson, there is still speculation that they may look for a long-term solution in the draft.

Both Hunter and Sanders are among the most electrifying prospects available this year. Hunter, a two-way star at cornerback and wide receiver, has drawn comparisons to some of the NFL’s elite, while Sanders is projected to be one of the top quarterbacks off the board.
