Giants rumor reveals who New York could take with No. 10 pick acquired in Dexter Lawrence trade

The New York Giants traded away one of their most valuable players on Saturday, sending defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence to the Cincinnati Bengals in a pre-draft blockbuster.

Cincinnati is trading the No. 10 overall pick in Thursday's draft to New York for Lawrence, according to multiple reports.

"Giants star Dexter Lawrence is being traded to the #Bengals in a pre-Draft blockbuster that includes the No. 10 pick heading to the Giants, per me and Mike Garafolo," NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported on X.

New York now has two picks in the top ten of the draft, and we now know who general manager Joe Schoen could be targeting at pick 10.

Giants could have their eyes on Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson

According to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo, Schoen attended Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson's workout on Friday, and also had dinner with the projected first-round pick the night before, on Thursday.

Garafolo adds that the Giants having two first-round picks, both in the top 10, makes it more likely that Tyson will be one of the first 10 players off the board.

"#Giants GM Joe Schoen flew to Arizona to attend Jordan Tyson’s workout yesterday. Schoen also had dinner with Tyson the night before, sources told me and Rap Sheet," Garafolo said on X. "With NYG at 10 after the Dexter Lawrence, Tyson’s odds of being a top 10 pick have now increased significantly."

Garafolo also isn't ruling out the possibility of New York taking Tyson with the fifth overall pick.

"Which is not to say Tyson can’t go earlier than 10. He could go 5, even. In 2022, Joe Schoen and the #Giants took Kayvon Thibodeaux at 5 because they knew they’d get Evan Neal at 7. Weren’t positive it would’ve played out the other way. A few ways for Schoen to play it now," Garafolo added.

It's clear the Giants are high on Tyson and view him as one of the top playmakers in the draft. The 21-year-old tallied 61 receptions for 711 yards and eight touchdowns at Arizona State in 2025, and had 1,101 and ten touchdowns the year prior in 2024.

Selecting Tyson and pairing him with Malik Nabers would give quarterback Jaxson Dart a young and explosive wide receiver duo for the future. With Tyson also having the ability to flourish from the slot, he would be a nice replacement for Wan'Dale Robinson, who left New York for the Tennessee Titans in free agency this offseason.

Overall, Tyson is on the Giants' radar as the draft nears on Thursday. We'll see if he ends up in New York within the next week.
