And with the number four pick, the Giants Select...

Williams probably. Maybe Baker Mayfield

.

And I don't think about it for a hot second.

....but we are a lock for the #2 pick. We won't another game until September 2018.

And I have no clue which one it is, which scares the hell out of me.

Tough to remove it from the list of possibilities at that draft position.

unless evals change in the next few months. OL can be had in round 2.

would trade down if we don't take a QB, and might do so even if Rosen or Darnold are available. But it's all moot if we don't finish with the #2 pick, or Darnold stays in school. It's going to be wild until next April.

He's gonna be a star

But it supposes someone makes you an acceptable offer. Also for the sake of this exercise it’s no fun.

you don't get a good trade down offer. Especially if Darnold stays in school.

We tend to assume they can just press a button and cash in on a huge trade down.

Mayfield scares the crap out of me. Huge bust potential.

I’d love to go OL but you can’t pass on a premier edge rusher like Chubb. Getting a legit DE to phase JPP out could really impact the defense as a whole.

Just have to hope the new GM could actually hit on some late rounders to help out the OL.

Bust.

Or Derwin James

And people whose football opinions I really respect, like Sy and B, like Mayfield a lot too. Gamble on greatness.

have a our 1st multi year All-Pro since Michael Strahan.

If you just don’t win anymore freaking games.

I’m all about restoring pride, winning attitude, et al. Let’s start that on 1/1/18 though.

No question about it.

multiple multi-year all pros - Nelson, Collins, Snacks and hopefully Beckham

Mayfield is my guy.

GM - Kirchner
Coach - Bevell
QB - Mayfield

Would be just fine with me.

or Williams. My first inclination is Nelson.

We may likely draft 6; Denver, Colts, Bears likely have 1 win among them.
But even at 4, though I'm in on Mayfield there, I think we are getting into Nelson/Williams/OL territory IMO.
And we have a greater need to churn at least one solid young OL into the lineup to replace the dynamic likes of Pugh/Jerry/the best RT in the NFL.
And if we could get Price in the 2nd........wooooooooooo!!!

Lamar Jackson,QB Louisville

Think the Giants would be nuts not to give Webb the next try. Tall, laser arm, tight spiral..football junkie. Film rat. Seems to have been a sponge to Eli. Seems to me to have the It Factor and some leadership skills. Good prospect for Giants football. I've been thrilled with his attitude and work ethic. I'm not sure what else you're looking for in a prospect.

He was neck and neck with Goff at Cal performance-wise and neck and neck w/Mahomes at TT. If he touched up his accuracy and muscle-memory'd NFL drops he can be very good. This is a golden opportunity to either fleece a team desperate for a QB or just "hold your water' & take the blue chip G or DE.

Fix the OL

were confident in Webb, I'd go with Chubb also.
No way in hell do I take a guard at 4, no chance.

what I see from Mayfield. I actually met him in the early fall. One thing that stands out me is there is zero chance he is 6’ 1, he is way shorter, my guess would be about 5’ 10, which is what my friend also said was common knowledge by the coaches. Maybe everyone adds a few inches to their listed height, I don’t know. But if not Eli would be a giant compared to him.

Fix the OL

1. QB Baker Mayfield
2. OC Billy Price
3. LB Uchenna Nwosu
4. FS Van Smith
4. LB Azeem Victor
5. RB Myles Gaskin
6. OG Alex Bars

I just read the thread on the article on Mayfield.
First paragraph says he's the likely Heisman winner.
The curse of the Heisman.
Especially after that Wisconsin RB...or was it Ron Dayne ;-).

Giants have 2cnd pick at the moment.

Supposed to be Ut oh!!!!

Or record Nelson. Need him more than Chubb as much as I'd live to dump both JPP and Vernon's bloated contracts. Both at least are good players. Just overpaid. The need for an anchor for that OL is desperate.

Fitzpatrick w Collins would be awesome too. The Webb pick irked me more than bothered as there OL there. The line is even thinner now. Even worse it will be a total waste as if they do pick 2nd it will be a QB unless some Herschel Walker like offer materializes.

New GM has his work cut out.

Nelson is a monster. Pancakes would be served on Sunday's. Chubb seems like a very good 2 way DE. Convention says go with the pass rusher but I have a feeling Nelson is the best player in the draft.

Nelson.

Best player in the draft.

Best athlete yes. Best RB maybe. Best QB no!

I tend to agree old friend. What floors me is regular BBI posters wanting to piss away a top 5 pick on a freaking guard! Why not a great kicker? We need one!

1. Never make your 1st pick a pure need pick unless it's for a franchise-type QB.

2. When evaluating a position's worth to your team, this is what you do: Find out the average salary of the very top (10 maybe) players at that position's salary. Then compare that to other positions average top salaries. Now you have a clear picture of a player/positional value to your team.

3. Need picks are fine in day 2 or 3.

Mayfield and feel good.

Picking Webb is unfortunate, but I guarantee you that they never at any moment concived of the possibility that they might be in position to have a top 3 pick in what might be the best draft for QBs since 2004. No one will mind (or remember) the Webb pick if they end up with a Jackson or a Rosen or a Mayfield.

No. He’s in another category - one of the most underrated.

I’m not kidding. I could see Belichick taking him. I think he’s going to fall, like Rodgers, and make a lot of people ask, “What did we miss?”

Lamar Jackson or Chubb at this point. QB's are going to move around a bit after the college season ends..

I agree. So much rides on how the new staff feels about Webb.

Ndamukong Suh used to throw offensive lineman around at Nebraska.

...but the pick has to be Baker Mayfield.

have Webb if Mayfield Implodes

in this case..period

unless our defense keeps putting up pick-6s...

Which QB do they take?

Is it the leftover of Rosen/Darnold?

Jackson and his stellar physical upside?

Same with Allen?

Mayfield and his fire and accuracy?

3 out of 5 will likely bust, finding the right guy is the 100M dollar question.
