The Giants had to wait for 31 teams to make 112 picks until they were back on the clock on Day 3.

Then they made three choices in an eight-pick stretch on Saturday afternoon, a demanding task for a club’s marketing department looking to crank out content and let the world know about the newest Giants. The building was up to the challenge.

The sixth-round sprint began with defensive lineman Bobby Jamison-Travis (Auburn) at No. 186 and then consecutive choices of offensive lineman J.C. Davis (Illinois) at No. 192 and linebacker Jack Kelly (BYU) at No. 193. The trio rounded out the seven-member draft class, the fifth under general manager Joe Schoen and first with head coach John Harbaugh.

“It was a long wait,” Schoen said. “That was the toughest part, waiting so long to pick again. … Clear vision for all three of them to compete for roster spots and excited to get all three of these guys.”

Saturday’s deadstart was a result of Friday’s trade with the Browns, who dealt the No. 74 pick to the Giants in exchange for No. 105 and No. 145, along with a fourth-round selection in 2027. The Giants, who entered the draft without a third-round selection due to last year’s trade package to acquire quarterback Jaxson Dart, used the pick on Notre Dame wide receiver Malachi Fields.

Without further ado, the New York Giants 2026 Draft Class:

Round 1 – No. 5: LB Arvelle Reese, Ohio StateRound 1 – No. 10 (from CIN): OL Francis Mauigoa, MiamiRound 2 – No. 37: CB Colton Hood, TennesseeRound 3 – No. 74 (from CLE): WR Malachi Fields, Notre DameRound 6 – No. 186: DL Bobby Jamison-Travis, AuburnRound 6 – No. 192 (from MIA): OL J.C. Davis, IllinoisRound 6 – No. 193 (from DAL): LB Jack Kelly, BYU

“I think we have a bunch of Giants, figuratively and literally,” Harbaugh said. “We have guys that we really like that are going to make a difference. To Joe’s point, clear vision is probably a good way to say it because we have a clear understanding of how each of these guys fits in.”

Harbaugh added: “The fact that they’re bigger players, longer, heavy-handed type guys is important, because especially in this division, you’ve got to play that way. Your interior offensive line has to be physical. Look at the defensive tackles in this league. Right down the road especially. [Defensive] line, the same way. We want to be able to handle the offensive lines that we have to play against up front. Of course, we talked about stopping the run right out of the gates, right? They have to be big and strong to do that. You have to be athletic. You’ve got to be able to move. All those things are part of it too. It’s a big part of it.”
