The New York Giants selected Purdue offensive lineman Marcus Mbow in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, No. 154 overall.

Pre-draft profile

Mbow is one of the most enjoyable players to watch in this entire draft class. The Purdue product probably doesn't have the size or length to stick at tackle, so he could be destined for a move to guard or even center. Mbow is a truly unique athlete who moves pretty much unlike anyone else at the position. He also processes the game at a high level and refuses to be outworked. Watch him drive a Notre Dame defender 10 yards downfield and into the ground while trailing 66-7 with three minutes to go in the season's second game. The effort is unmatched. And while he'll probably need to add strength no matter his eventual position, Mbow's advanced hand usage is a great starting point. He's a player everyone should want on their team. Figure the rest out later.
