The 2023 NFL Draft is well and truly over, and now it’s time for the frenzy after the draft.
Right now the New York Giants coaches, scouts, and executives are calling the players who caught their eye over the course of the 2022 season and draft process but weren’t drafted. They’re making their best pitches to the undrafted players who caught their eye during the 2022 season and 2023 draft process.
The scouts who were on the road throughout the season and the coaches who interacted with the players throughout the draft process will be relying on the connections they built to actively recruiting the now-former college players. They’re trying to convince them that signing with the Giants are their best chance to make a team and see the field.
The Giants have a strong history with undrafted free agency, and that could be to their advantage. Their lineage of players like Rich Suebert, Victor Cruz, Mark Herzlich, and Nick Gates makes a good argument that the Giants are team where undrafted players are valued and can get a real shot.
