Any QB's on the board which are intriguing?

Sean : 4/28/2017 9:28 am
Depending on who you ask, the Giants liked Mahomes. We all know Eli is on the back 9. Any names worth considering which can be a developmental/maybe Eli replacement down the line?
Here are names to consider  
Nomad Crow on the Madison : 4/28/2017 9:35 am : link
Round 2:
Davis Webb
Nathan Peterman

Rounds 4-5:
Josh Dobbs
Jerod Evans

Round 7:
Alex Torgerson
Seth Russell
Kyle Sloter

But I doubt the Giants pick a QB before round 7.

assume Webb and Kizer will be gone very quickly tonight. I would pass on Peterman, Kayaa, and Dobbs.

I don't want to draft any QB, but Seth Russell from Baylor might be worth a late day three pick. He missed most of the last two seasons with injuries. Broken neck in 2015, and a gruesome dislocated ankle in 2016. He's apparently fully healed, or close to it. He met with the Giants. He's similar to Mahomes. Both come from a spread offense, have strong arms, and are mobile. He also has a nice touch. There are some decent highlights of him on Youtube.
Jerod Evans

in the later rounds. He needs some pro grooming, but he has a super fast release, and he is very accurate with some running ability.

He could be groomed to take Eli's place, but being picked in a later round, there would be no pressure on him to do so for a while.

at the earliest, please.

We'll get ours next year.
I know some people were dying for Mahomes  
JCin332 : 4/28/2017 10:06 am : link
but frankly thankfully it didn't happen...

With the new offensive weapons including Engram I expect a big year from Eli and while he may be on the "back nine" I expect a solid 3 to 4 years from him...

I have a feeling Eli may have been playing injured ... if not, he certainly has enough weapons now to show whether he truly is in decline or not. love the front office approach so far this offseason ... time to address OL/DL tonight.
They have their 3 QBs

Get over it. Geno is the developmental guy this year.
I like Josh Dobbs  
Giant John : 4/28/2017 11:33 am : link
and Chad Kelly.
Webb is the only guy I'd pick, and I'm not sure I'd do it in Rd 2  
PatersonPlank : 4/28/2017 11:35 am : link
If he's there in Rd 3, which he won't be, I'd take him

River I think you're right. Which QB in the draft now has more upside than him? Unless thy are taking one in the 7th I say forget it.
We are drafting for now....  
Doomster : 4/28/2017 11:50 am : link
We better not draft a qb......
I like Nathan Peterman  
GiantJake : 4/28/2017 12:26 pm : link
but the Giants have bigger fish to fry today. Maybe they grab Chad Kelly tomorrow and make it an Ole Miss reunion.
Chad Kelly just had another surgery on his wrist  
PatersonPlank : 4/28/2017 12:28 pm : link
He can't even throw for 3 months.
Giants won't get a franchise QB next year  
Ivan15 : 4/28/2017 12:59 pm : link
Too far to move up from 32.

The only way they can get a future franchise QB before Eli's final disastrous season is if they stumble over one like Tom Brady or Tony Romo.

That said, I would draft a late round QB every year for the next 3 years.

You were spot on.
