Giants head coach John Harbaugh on selecting Ohio State Football safety Caleb Downs at #5 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft via The Mike Francesa Podcast:
– āBig fan, big fan, you know, you didn’t mention Brian Dawkins, had a chance to coach him. Yeah, we favor Hall of Fame safeties. So, if we have a chance to draft a potential future Hall of Fame safety in Caleb Downs, that would be just fine with me. We’ll take the best player. You know, when you draft that high, you take the best player. It’s not a need pick. It’s the best player pick because you’re going for the guy that’s going to be that kind of a player. You’re talking about a guy that you would like to see someday wearing a gold jacket if possible. That’s what the goal is with that pick. So, this would be the highest pick for me ever as a coach, you know, as a head coach⦠So, this is pretty exciting to have a pick this high. Yeah, that guy would be just fine with me. I’d take him in a second.ā

Should the Giants pick Caleb Downs at #5? Y | N
Yea Harbaugh would never leak that this early so if you wanted Downs at 5 this is a bad look..
so why are we telling other teams who we want?
No we need his teammate Tate…pick needs to be wr we need a true no.2 for dart to continue to develop
Iām all for drafting the best player available, but didnāt we say the same thing when talking about SB? I mean he will likely bring wearing a gold jacket in 10 years. Shouldnāt we draft on a combination of need and skill?
Yesssssssssss!
This is where the fun begins. Hello there general downs
I'm still and ALWAYS gonna say we should have had the number 1 pick. We could have had Downs and more picks
I want a receiver though I donāt think nabers is enough heās great but I would like a great 1 2 punch like jsn and cooper kupp
Yes
Drafting Downs, and upgrading the ILB position would complete the Defense!
N. He did not reveal that. He is saying that is a great choice not that he is the choice.
13:26 Tate doesnāt have to be better than Nabers to take him at 5 š this is bs logic sir
yes please
LOL, Harbaugh spends all this time getting rid of the leaks with the Giants. But now he's leaking who he wants in the draft? Yeah, I don't think so.
Yā¦.of course we take Downs! Just take the best blue chip prospect availableā¦.keep it simple for stupid š
N
He would impact our team more than than any one else
Tate at #5. Funny how now people want to ignore positional value. In 2022 when I was banging the table for Tyler Linderbaum. Other fans preached you need to take Evan Neal because positional value ranks an OT over a C. Which I also disagree with a LT > C but C > the rest of the line. How did that pick workout. The Giants struggles start in the draft. Ignoring important positions such as ILB and WR. Not giving their QBs enough weapons. The only team in the NFL that thinks 1 top WR or 1 top RB is all the team needs. Now you got fans blinded to the fact that you need to give weapons to your QB. Dart played last season with 0 weapons. All the money and draft picks dropped in to the defense already. Yet you have guys like Marshal wants to waist another top pick on the defense. By the way Marsh do some research Nubin's stats at Minnesota just a couple season ago was better than Downs. Nubin was a ballhawk a good DC will put him in position to use those ball skills. No need to draft a Safety when you have a young Nubin and a high paid vet in Holland.
Xavior McKinney or Julian Love would have been just fine with me.
No. Get Tate
Caleb
You blow things way out of proportion all he said is he wouldn't mind having him on the team he would like to have him but he said he's gonna pick who they think is the best player for them at that pick he didn't say he was gonna pick him lmao
No get a wr
I trust harbaugh he says best player … whoever he picks I'm in
Y
Hell yes
Downs been my pick for months, I see Greatness for sure! Coach talked about wanting guys who "Loves Football" well Downs LOVES Football! If Now Downs give me Reese, Styles, Tate any one of those OSU guys who played in big games and won a National Championship the year before so they know what it takes to WIN. Also playing under Matt Patricia makes them ready for the NFL more than most!
I sadly have a feeling hes going to the Titans before our pick
Bring me Caleb Downs!!!
Hell yes
NO- A WR with freak skills would complement Nabers and add to Dartās Development. Defensive safeties are a dime a dozen in free agency.
No, you donāt take a safety with number five pic unless heās generational on this dude isnāt generational. I think thereās a linebacker. I canāt think of his name that they should pick up
Caleb Downs or Jerimiyah Love either or
A wide receiver to compliment Nabers makes more sense with the 5th pick !
Downs all the way I think the o line will be addressed in free agency then we get more depth w later picks
yes!!!
I hope itās Downs or Styles ā¦.. Downs can step right in,heās a monster , and Styles just needs to gain some weight heās going to be spectacular as well!
šÆ agree heās that guy
Y. Hey Marshall I knew once you heard about this you was going to run away with it like a whole lot of others thinking that harbaugh is picking Caleb Downs he only mentioned Caleb down specifically if you watch the interview LOL because Mike Francesa asked him about Caleb doubts he probably would have said the same thing before Reese what other players I knew LOL once I saw this y'all was going to run away with this you know he don't want other teams to know what he's going to do LOL LOL LOL
Yes
Y
Will take a struggling defense and immediately make a respectable and a good linebacker and a decent corner. The Giants can have an elite defense
