Sanders has emerged as a top pick in recent mock drafts for the Giants. The College Sports Network Mock Draft Simulator recently showcased that nearly 43% of Giants users are selecting Sanders in the first round.
The Giants are coming off an underwhelming 3-14 season, emphasizing the necessity for a dependable quarterback. While Sanders is a strong contender, Miami Hurricanes quarterback Cam Ward is also on the team’s shortlist, having picked the Heisman finalist in 15 mock drafts (30.6%).
