The New York Giants began building their board for the 2025 NFL draft on Wednesday at their headquarters in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
It was the first time since the NFL Combine in Indianapolis that they assembled inside their draft room to begin final preparations.
The Giants will assemble inside their draft room this morning to begin post-Combine meetings geared toward sharing all intel gathered in the last month.

The building of their draft board begins today. Local Pro Day is tomorrow in East Rutherford.
Colorado Pro Day Friday
The team has yet to personally work out many of the key players that will be available to them at the No. 3 pick, specifically two Colorado players -- quarterback Shedeur Sanders and wide receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter.
Colorado will conduct their pro day on Friday. The Giants are expected to be in attendance en masse. Whether or not head coach Brian Daboll will be there is unknown. He doesn't normally attend pro days, opting for private workouts instead.
"You can put them through the things you want to see," Daboll said this week. "Maybe it's different than what they did for the pro day they've practiced a bunch. You can spend a lot of time with the player in the meeting room in addition to what you've spent before. You can recap some of the things that you taught, you can add some new things, you can see how they interact with some of their guys in an intimate setting, if you will. You put them in charge of them things to take care of for the workouts. We've done a number of these private workouts for the quarterback position. That's what I prefer."
Considering Hunter is expected to be a Top 5 pick at the very least and Sanders has been repeatedly mocked to the Giants, it might behoove Daboll to be in attendance but he seems content with allowing the scouting department to two their job.
In addition, the Giants will hold their local pro day on Thursday, so they will get an up-close look at some local prospects.
It will also be unknown whether the Giants made any adjustments to their pre-draft process after last year's Hard Knocks developments. General manager Joe Schoen had a strong draft last year and may be developing into a top NFL executive after a slow start.
Either way, the process started on Wednesday as the front office and scouting department moved into their incubator for the next three weeks.
