The Giants just made a big move, signing veteran QB Russell Wilson to a one-year deal worth up to $21 million, locking down the position—at least for now. With Wilson in the mix alongside Jameis Winston and Tommy DeVito, the team likely won’t be looking for a quarterback with the No. 3 pick in the upcoming draft. That means Aaron Rodgers rumors? Done. The focus now shifts to other playmakers.
Could Travis Hunter Be Big Blue’s Next Star?
With quarterback off the table (for now), the Giants could make a splash by drafting Travis Hunter, the electric two-way star from Colorado. Bleacher Report’s Gary Davenport called Hunter the best overall player in the draft, and the Giants might be the perfect fit.
Hunter isn’t just good—he’s a rare talent. He played over 100 snaps in 11 of 13 games last season, dominated on both offense and defense, and even took home a Heisman. He could step in as a game-changer, helping out in the secondary while also giving the offense another weapon behind last year’s first-round pick, Malik Nabers.
Giants Have Options, But No Rush for a QB
Sure, the Giants still need a long-term quarterback solution. But with Wilson under center, they now have the flexibility to either wait until the second round or trade up later to find their guy. That gives them a shot at taking the best player available instead of reaching for a QB out of desperation.
Bottom line? The Giants are in a much better spot today than they were yesterday. And with the draft coming up, they have a chance to make a bold move that could pay off in a big way.
