richard pallo Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 4 hours ago, shastamasta said: Agree. Besides, I think all of this NYG talk about not drafting a QB is preposterous. I just can't see a new GM/HC combo letting their success be dictated by some 37 year-old QB or a previous regime's 3rd round pick....they will want their own guy. They can't even afford to keep Eli and hoping that Davis Webb is the next Kirk Cousins and not the next Ryan Nassib (NYG 4th round pick in 2013) is not a really strategy. History seems to have a way of repeating itself...and NFL owners have a funny way of wanting to go back to what works/worked. The last time they had a top 5 pick, they took Eli. And this time, the NYG will also take a QB. Absolutely. They are not going to pass on an opportunity to draft Eli's replacement with the 2nd. pick. Makes no sense considering his age. They might not get another chance to draft this high again for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOTT Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 A rb and guard go 1 & 2 lol The browns are going QB at 1. They traded down and missed on wentz . They traded back again last year and missed on Watson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could love Mason Rudolph, and take him in the second round and sit him for one season. That could make sense. Let him and Webb compete for when Eli is gone after next season. Whatever they do, it's going to have a big effect on the rest of the top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have more cap space we can offer more $ for norwell. But, yes browns draft Barkley and I believe giants draft Nelson and the browns sitting at 4 see that their QB is available as rumblings of Jets/Broncos want a QB too and want to jump to 3 call the colts and offer us their 2 second round picks to move up to 3 to get their QB! We are now at 4 ..... the broncos or jets want their QB now so they trade us their pick and a couple other second rounders .... we NOW get Chubb at 5/6 and we have a plethora of second round picks for day 2!

Defjamz26 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Chubb is the consensus mock to the Colts at 3 for good reason. It’s a no nonsense pick. If they trade down it better be for a future 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends on if they like any of the QB’s. I’m not sure why people are suggesting that a franchise coming off a terrible season, that has just hired a new GM/ Head Coach , would be in “win-now mode”. If they like a QB, they’ll take one. If not, it’s not because they have ultimate faith in Eli. Why would they? He’s 37 coming off a pretty bad season (a few really). There’s no reason for the Giants to think they’ll be picking this high again any time soon. They will absolutely explore taking a QB at #2 , it would be beyond foolish not to. People really need to consider context and put themselves in other’s shoes. The Giants, for the most part, are a well-run club with smart ownership , what you’re suggesting (or the guy on Sirius) would be the kind of stuff the Browns would do. So again, if they don’t take a QB at #2 , it’s because they don’t like the top guys. That’s it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boiler_Colt Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 For no other reason than nothing has really gone right for this franchise the past few years, Im starting to think Chubb might be gone by #3. I dont think the Giants need him with JPP and Vernon locked up long term, but he may be BPA for them. I think that Barkley, Nelson or even Fitzpatrick helps them more right now if they're trying for one last run. On the other hand you dont get this opportunity for a great QB succession plan very often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuck, Strahan, & JPP basically knocked Brady around & Eli made a few good throws to David Tyree, Plaico Burress, & Mario Manningham in 2 SBs. Eli gets credit for those throws sure, but it's been a long playoff drought since then. I like Eli, but business is business & he gets 1 more yr to mentor a rookie QB then bye bye. Giants ownership cannot keep Manning for 3 more yrs. That's organizational suicide. You had a nice run Eli. How old is Eli 37? 38?

southwest1 Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Hey LD, Sorry about bringing up Eli's autograph controversy, I didn't expect you to answer that question.

Oh well... I respect you LD & I didn't want you to think that I was backing you into a corner or something.

Yeah... I’m not sure you’re grasping what I’m saying. Just because they don’t think there’s a franchise QB worthy of the 2nd pick , doesn’t mean they won’t roll with Eli , nor does it mean they won’t consider drafting/signing/trading for one in the next two off-seasons. It just means they don’t like a guy enough to justify using the 2nd overall selection. ”If that happens, they will have another bad season and another high pick to grab a QB”.......What? Aren’t you trying to tell me they feel comfortable with Eli? Deflating what? My “theory” isn’t that this is the only year for them to get a high pick for a QB. That’s not what I’m saying at all, if anything is being deflated it’s my belief that you understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you research TB you'll find he just wasn’t very good. The year he went to the Pro Bowl, none of the 1 or 2 Tier QBs attended. Also, he was the 22nd ranked QB. A lot of TB homers fail to recognize that. All the while having A. Pederson having a career year. Two seasons as a starting QB and averaged less than a TDP a game. 87 career QB rating. Anyways, idon’t get nor see any magic from TB. Nice college career that didn’t translate to NFL success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly LJ, if Giants ownership doesn't take a QB this yr that team is gonna pay the price moving forward & experience an even longer playoff drought. Initially, when Eli got benched I felt sorry for the guy since it wasn't all Manning's fault. He wasn't playing well though & he needed to get benched. I like Eli but when he's playing lousy I'll say it. Yeah, it looks like Barkley is going to the Big Apple. The Browns fervor is all smokescreen distraction nonsense to me. I don't think LT Eric Flowers has improved either. My God he is horrible. SMH... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
