Overview
- Notre Dame star Jeremiyah Love is in East Rutherford for an official top-30 visit with the Giants on Thursday, per NorthJersey.com’s report.
- The meeting follows a Combine interview and in-season scouting, marking sustained interest from New York as it evaluates options for the fifth overall pick.
- Love enters the process as a consensus elite prospect, highlighted by a Heisman finalist season, the Doak Walker Award, and 4.36–4.37 40-yard dash times at the Combine.
- Analyst Todd McShay says Love is in play at No. 5, noting recent free‑agent RB signings have narrowed his top‑10 market, with the Titans at 4 and Commanders at 7 also cited as potential fits.
- Debate persists over using a top‑five pick on a running back given the projected fully guaranteed ~$36.5 million slot at No. 5 and the Giants’ existing young backs, even as Harbaugh prioritizes a run‑heavy identity.
