Longtime ESPN expert Mel Kiper’s NFL mock draft has Giants taking Shedeur Sanders

One of the NFL’s top draft experts is connecting the Giants and Shedeur Sanders.
ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr.’s debut mock draft has Big Blue taking the Colorado quarterback with the third-overall pick in what would signal a new era in New York.
“This is the best-case scenario for the Giants,” Kiper wrote of the Giants potentially taking Sanders. “Their Week 17 win over the Colts slid them to No. 3, and now finding a new QB1 in the first round isn’t guaranteed. But Daniel Jones is gone and Drew Lock is a free agent, so the Giants have to do something to clean up one of the worst passing games in the league.”
Kiper floated the possibility that the Giants could move up from the third slot to take Sanders, who is considered one of the top two QB prospects in this class alongside Miami’s Cam Ward.
“New York will be weighing all options, and it might ultimately be forced to trade up into the top two to get its guy.”
Ultimately, Kiper sees Sanders being available when it’s the Giants’ turn to draft in April.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
