Russell Wilson trade lands him with the Giants on a one-year, $21M deal as New York reshapes its QB plans before the 2025 NFL Draft.

ESPN’s Field Yates released his latest 2025 NFL Mock Draft on Tuesday. There’s a ton of unknowns this April, and one of the more polarizing teams within the first couple of picks is the New York Giants at No.

The New York Giants promised to " look under every rock " to find a new quarterback this offseason. Now, after plenty of looking, they've finally found another one, on Tuesday agreeing to sign Russell Wilson to a one-year deal,

Signing Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston solved the New York Giants’ immediate need for a starting quarterback. They could still draft one for the future. “The face of a franchise is a quarterback,” Giants coach Brian Daboll said Tuesday at the NFL meetings.

They landed Russell Wilson, but not before pursuing Matthew Stafford and Aaron Rodgers. At the NFL’s annual meetings Monday, general manager Joe Schoen sounded content with signing Wilson and Jameis Winston.

Will his offensive line actually be able to protect Russell Wilson? Yes, the Giants could absolutely draft Shedeur Sanders at No. 3 (if he’s still available). But even if they take Sanders — who had his own issues with pass blocking problems at Colorado — it’s likely they’ll go into the 2025 season with Wilson as their starter.
