Tracking the Giants’ moves on the Pro Day circuit
There’s a lot going on around the NFL despite the fact that we’re in the “off season”. The process leading up to the 2024 NFL Draft is churning along, and the New York Giants have already had a hectic start to the 2024 free agency period.
But now that the news around free agency has died down a bit, it’s time to turn our attention back to the upcoming draft. NFL front office personnel, coaches, and scouts are now pinballing around the country as schools put on their pro days.
Obviously, every team will try to get eyes on every prospect and we probably shouldn’t overreact to any individual piece of news, as Daniel Jeremiah cautions.
Don’t read too much into which coaches/GMs show up at pro days. QB needy teams will do private workouts with all of the top tier QBs

However, we can track where the Giants are showing up in force to get closer looks at prospects. That might give us some idea as to what positions they’re considering targeting in April.
