New York Giants General Manager Joe Schoen has indicated that the team does not consider it mandatory to select a quarterback in the 2025 NFL Draft. This stance follows the recent acquisitions of quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston, which have strengthened the Giants' quarterback roster. Schoen emphasized that the team will not force a quarterback pick unless the value aligns with their draft position and overall strategy. The Giants are comfortable with their upgraded quarterback room and are open to exploring other positional needs in the draft.
