Summer Scouting - Could the Giants draft an edge defender?

The 2025 NFL Draft looks as though it could be a banner year for the front seven.

This is only one measure, but the Consensus Big Board lists a full 30 defensive linemen, edge defenders, and linebackers in their Top 100, with several more falling just outside the century mark.

The front seven appears to be the obvious strength the New York Giants. The top of their depth chart is among the best in the NFL with Dexter Lawrence, Kayvon Thibodeaux, Brian Burns, Bobby Okereke, and Micah McFadden. However, there’s still questions down the depth chart — not to mention room for improvement.
