Players selected with picks the New York Giants traded
The New York Giants made several draft day trades to move up and secure the players they coveted in this year’s NFL draft.
The Giants traded up one spot in the first round, swapping picks with the Jacksonville Jaguars — from No. 25 to No. 24 — to prevent against being jumped for Maryland defensive back Deonte Banks. They also sent the Jags a fifth (No. 160) and a seventh (No. 240) to seal the deal.
On Day 2, the Giants sent a third-round pick (No. 89) and fourth-rounder (No. 128) to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for the 73rd overall pick, which they used to select Tennessee wide receiver Jalin Hyatt.
And let us not forget the Giants sent a third-round pick (No. 100) to the Las Vegas Raiders for tight end Darren Waller earlier this offseason.
The total cost of moving up during the draft was a net three picks. Here’s a quick rundown of who was selected with the picks the Giants traded away.
