The New York Giants are projected to receive a fourth-round compensatory pick in the 2027 NFL draft due to the departure of wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson. This compensatory selection is a result of the team's free-agent signings not fully offsetting the losses incurred.
The New York Giants are currently on track to receive a fourth-round compensatory selection in the 2027 NFL draft, based on projections from Over the Cap.
This potential draft asset stems primarily from the departure of wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson, whose loss was not fully offset by the team's incoming free-agent signings.
While the Giants added several notable players, including tight end Isaiah Likely, cornerback Greg Newsome, punter Jordan Stout, and linebacker Patrick Ricard, these acquisitions balanced out the departures of cornerback Cor'Dale Flott, tight end Daniel Bellinger, center Austin Schlottmann, and safety Dane Belton.
As a result, Robinson's exit stands as the key qualifying loss under the NFL's compensatory pick formula. The projection highlights the Giants' measured approach in free agency after an initial wave of spending.
Such a Day 3 pick could provide valuable depth as the franchise continues its rebuild under new leadership.
Compensatory selections are determined annually based on a complex formula weighing player departures against signings, with final awards confirmed after the draft.
