The New York Giants did not add a wide receiver at the NFL trade deadline, opting to hold on to their draft capital in a season in which they are just 2-7.

Would it have been nice to add another weapon for Jaxson Dart? Sure, but Dart actually seems fairly comfortable with his current setup, so he should be just fine for the back half of 2025.

Of course, the Giants are sure to address the wide receiver position during the offseason, as they desperately need a legitimate No. 2 option alongside of Malik Nabers.

Maybe they re-sign Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency, but even so, Robinson is more of a really good tertiary option than a No. 2.

As it stands, New York would own the No. 5 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, which puts the team in great position to land the consensus top wide receiver in the draft class: Arizona State superstar Jordyn Tyson.

Tyson has hauled in 57 receptions for 628 yards and eight touchdowns thus far this season and is a year removed from catching 75 passes for 1,101 yards and 10 scores.

The 6-foot-2 wide out doesn't possess tremendous speed, but his athleticism is undeniable, especially after the catch. And remember: the Giants already have a freak in Nabers. They don't necessarily need another burner.

Tyson has good enough size to win jump balls, and he is well polished all-around in terms of his hands and route-running ability.

Is he Jeremiah Smith? No, but he does a little bit of everything well, and for a New York team in dire need of a secondary weapon, he would be a great fit.

Of course, the question is whether or not the Giants would want to take a wide receiver with a top-five pick. Could they potentially trade down to accumulate more assets and then take a pass-catcher a bit later in the first round?

Tennessee's Chris Brazzell is particularly intriguing given his 6-foot-5 stature and the fact that he leads the SEC in both receiving yards and receiving touchdowns this season. Ohio State's Carnell Tate could be another option, as is USC's Makai Lemon (although his lack of size is concerning).

Basically, Big Blue has essentially resigned itself to the fact that it will probably have to find its wide receiver answer in the draft. The Giants don't have the money to spend big on a wide receiver in free agency, and while they could swing a trade, that would again require New York to part with draft capital.

The Giants' front office will also probably look a bit different come January. General manager Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll both figure to be gone, so we will have to see how the new regime weighs the situation.

One thing is for sure, though: New York will be adding another big-time receiver for Dart this offseason, so there is no need to panic just yet.
