The New York Giants drafted an absolute behemoth with the No.3 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter is listed at 6-foot-3, 251 pounds.
Carter was an absolute machine in his junior season at Penn State. Carter led the nation with 24 tackles for loss, posting 12 sacks, two forced fumbles, and four pass deflections. Carter had 68 total tackles that season, and finished his three-year collegiate career with 12 sacks.
Carter was the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year and a Unanimous Consensus All-American selection, and he's expected to only get better in the pros.
Big, towering brutes isn't the only type of player the Giants drafted. The Giants snagged Arizona State running back Cam Skattebo in the fourth round. In the grand scheme of things, Skattebo isn't a particularly small human. He stands at 5-foot-11 and 216 pounds, he's built like a cannon ball and was not an easy man to bring down in college.
In his senior season at Arizona State, Skattebo led the Big 12 with 293 carries and 1,711 yards. He ran in 21 touchdowns and picked up three more in the receiving game, earning him three first place votes in the Heisman Trophy voting, finishing fifth on the ballot.
The Giants landed a pair of fantastic athletes and two of college football's best players from this past season. However, when the two of them appeared together in a video from rookie minicamp, Carter appeared to tower over Skattebo, leading X user Dov Kleiman to say "Wild: Giants Abdul Carter makes Cam Skattebo look like he's 4 feet tall."
