Which Fanbases Were Most Satisfied With This Year’s Class?
Whether it was Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year Abdul Carter out of Penn State or Oklahoma State cornerback Korie Black, it seems like the New York Giants’ fanbase emerged from this weekend’s NFL Draft with some extra gas in the tank, emotionally.
That’s because the NFC East stalwarts pulled down the most ‘likes’ on social media during the seven round spectacle that took place in Green Bay, finishing the three days with 2,731,534 of them, to be exact.
Most of that online juice likely came from the team’s selection of Carter with the third overall pick, as the Philadelphia native terrorized opposing quarterbacks for three seasons in Happy Valley en route to being named a two-time first-team All-Big Ten selection along with that DPOY honor in 2024.
Whether it was a direct result of Carter’s selection or the net impact of adding seven players across as many rounds, the Giants finished atop our 2025 NFL Draft fanbase excitement list, with the ‘G-Men’ placing ahead of the New England Patriots leaguewide.
The Patriots, by comparison, raked in 2,249,320 ‘likes’ on social media during this year’s draft, headlined by the team’s selection of LSU offensive tackle Will Campbell, who took home the Jacobs Blocking Trophy in 2024, which is awarded to the top lineman in the SEC each season.
While the Giants and Patriots were the class of the drafts, ‘likes’ wise, other top performers included the Dallas Cowboys (2,158,174 ‘likes’), Pittsburgh Steelers (2,125,279 ‘likes’) and the Philadelphia Eagles (2,095,404 ‘likes’).
Conversely, the least ‘liked’ draft class in 2025 belonged to the Giants’ roommates at MetLife Stadium, as the New York Jets pulled in a paltry 477,924 ‘likes’ on social media to finish behind the Arizona Cardinals (487,597 ‘likes’) and the Los Angeles Rams (491,707 ‘likes’) in the 32-team league.
None of those franchises could compete with the social media influence of the Giants, however, with football fans in the Big Apple turning out in a big way to show their social media support for players like Carter, Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart and Toledo defensive tackle Darius Alexander, who were the top three selections by the NFC East club in 2025.
