Following the New York Giants’ blowout loss at the hands of the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, they inched closer to the conclusion of one of the worst seasons in franchise history.
The loss also moved them that much closer to the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft.
After Sunday’s NFL schedule and before the Monday Night Football two-game slate, the Giants had the best odds of landing the first overall pick by season’s end, which many suspect would be a quarterback.
The Giants have a 44.9% chance of earning the No. 1 overall pick in 2025 NFL draft, per ESPN Analytics. Heavy favorites at this point. #Giants #NFLDraft2025

However, after the Las Vegas Raiders’ loss to the Atlanta Falcons, the Giants are currently slated to pick second overall in the 2025 NFL draft, per Tanktathon.
The Raiders are the only other NFL team with just two wins after Week 15.
While questions remain about what the Giants will do with head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen, fans are keeping a close eye on the draft picks for the remainder of the season.
Just over a week ago, fans celebrated as Graham Gano’s attempt at a game-tying field goal against the New Orleans Saints was blocked.
The Giants are currently riding a nine-game losing streak and are in jeopardy of being the first team in NFL history to go 0-9 at home.
Both the Raiders and Giants have winnable games left on their schedules. The Raiders will play the three-win Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 16.
The Giants have three games left with their next game being on the road against the Falcons, who just barely beat the Raiders on Monday Night Football. However, the Giants still opened up as double-digit road underdogs.
