The Giants won’t finish last this season

Big Blue avoided their third consecutive last-place finish by sweeping the Redskins and dropped to fourth overall in the 2020 NFL Draft seeding. Will that be good enough to snare Ohio State edge rusher Chase Young? Let’s see.

Cincinnati (1-14) clinched the No. 1 overall selection by losing a wild game to the 4-11 Dolphins in Miami on Sunday. They’ll likely take quarterback with that pick. Many are thinking LSU’s Joe Burrow, the Heisman Trophy winner.

Washington (3-12) is next and depending on who’d calling the shots next season, could be the landing spot for Young. They likely won’t take a quarterback as Dwayne Haskins appears to be catching on.

Detroit (3-11-1) played the last half of the season without Matthew Stafford (back) and could be tempted to grab, let’s say, Tua Tagovailoa if he’s staring them in the face here at No. 3.

The Giants will then have the pick of the lot. Quarterback is out, so the general manager — whoever that is — will likely entertain a trade first, then grab the best player available if no trade is made.
