Mock draft projects Jeremiah Smith to join the New York Giants

Athlon Sports recently projected the New York Giants to select Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith with the third overall pick in the 2027 NFL draft. The projection suggests pairing Smith with Malik Nabers, who signed a four-year, $29.2 million contract with the team in 2024. Smith has recorded 171 career receptions, 2,709 yards, and 29 touchdowns over his first two-plus seasons at Ohio State. The New York Giants are currently building their offense around quarterback Jaxson Dart, who entered his second season after starting 12 games as a rookie in 2025. Nabers is expected to return to the lineup following a 2025 season that ended early due to an ACL injury. The draft order remains speculative as the 2026 college football season enters its second week.
