GIANTS SQUAD SHOW: Draft Recap: Hood Pick, Needs Filled, OBJ Impact?

The New York Giants continue building through the draft, selecting Colton Hood in Round 2 and adding more defensive pieces to shape the roster. What does Hood bring to the current cornerback unit, and how does the secondary look heading into the season?

With a 4–3 split favoring defense, the Giants also added Malachi Fields to bolster the receiving corps — but what does that mean for a potential Odell Beckham Jr. reunion? Did the offense get enough help overall?

We break down the Day 3 additions, including Bobby Jamison-Travis, J.C. Davis, and Jack Kelly, plus John Harbaugh’s reaction to Malik Nabers’ comments and why the Giants never seriously considered trading Kayvon Thibodeaux, per Adam Schefter.

Did the Giants do enough to address their biggest needs — or are there still holes to fill?

Jay Berman, Patricia Traina, and Mark Collins break it all down on the latest edition of the Giants Squad Show.
