The Giants need to have the heir apparent to Eli
This is an unusual draft there are 4 quality qbs that are worthy of a top 10 selection
The Giants can get a great QB
This can set up the Giants for the next 10 years

Also for those who like Webb
The best thing for the Giants would be to have two quality QBs
The winner is your an the loser is trade bait

I’d only change the verb here from “are” to “should” because Jints Central can’t be ruled out for doing something galacticly stupid like drafting a f-ckin G.

Otherwise, Zerg nails it.
No

I would be surprised if Cleveland doesn't pick Darnold. I think the choice will be Rosen or Allen.
Last time Giants drafted #2

They took L. T.

As so many like to say, "They could have gotten a boat load of picks" trading down.

I m kind of glad they didn't

By the way, Giants had good linebackers coming into 81 season prior to getting L. T.

THE next season at #3, they drafted Carl Banks.

Back then they understood the value in building for the next decade +, as opposed to one or two seasons.

I think Gettleman does too. Giants don t really need a quarterback for next season, maybe next two. But here s betting Gettleman is smart enough to get one.

one of the QBs will end up being worthy of the number 2 pick. the problem is that we don't know which one it will be. Afterwards, BBI will be all over the "should have taken a QB" mantra, forgetting about the 'can't miss' prospects that washed out. It's my nitpick with the 'take a QB crowd'. One doesn't get to lump all QB's into one. the 'take a QB crowd' has to narrow it down to one. Not any of three, or four, or five. One. I don't think any of the QB's are can't miss prospects, hence not worth a number two. I'm also a pessimist, so no matter which QB the Giants take, it'll probably be the wrong one.


It is not a game. It is not a bet. There is no money on the line. You are nitpicking for the sake of nitpicking. People want a QB, so what? It will be Barkley or one of Rosen, Darnold or Allen.
Wentz or Goff? Eli, Rivers, Ben? Marino, Elway, Blackledge, Thompson, O'Brien?

No matter who the Giants pick whiners will be whining 3 years from now that Allen has 20 50 yard TDs or Rosen has a 70% completion percentage or Darnold is picking teams apart or Barkley has 3 straight 2000+ all purpose yard seasons or Nelson is 3 x All Pro.

It comes down to Barkley (consensus best player) vs QB of the future..(I guess you could include vs. quantity with a trade down scenario)

so your opinion is that any of the QB's will do? If you want to lump them all into one generic QB category, that's what you're saying.
Yes - the offer will be too good from one of the QB desperate teams  
PatersonPlank : 3/18/2018 11:05 am : link
who are willing to way overpay.
NO  
larryflower37 : 3/18/2018 11:08 am : link
That market has dried up.
Buffalo is desperate but they don't have the firepower to get to 2.
Denver has their QB for the near future and 3 young QB's behind that.

No one else is in range.
Giants are staying at #2 and taking BPA.

This is a Darnold/Barkley draft & NYG is sitting in the perfect spot.


And 4 months ago everybody said Darnold should have stayed in school and now he’s one of the top 2guys in the draft I’ve heard it all
NO— they want the pick

Two man draft board: 1a Sam 1b Saquon
No.

Browns take Darnold. Giants take Barkley. As DG said, "don't get cute."

DG has upgraded the OL in FA. Barkley is also a weapon out of the backfield, which is important since right now we basically only have OBJ, SS, and EE as receivers.
Trade down?

Only if someone pulls a Ditka "move".......

Did Cleveland trade for Tyrod Taylor as a stop gap until their, #1 pick, a QB, is ready? Or will Cleveland take Barkley?

What it all comes down to is, is this crop of QB's really that good, or are they just a toss of the dice?

What amazes me is how some on this board, are somehow equating Webb with these qb's, without having seen him play....

I think Cleveland is not going to let a future QB go down the drain like they have in the past.....Taylor can hold down the fort while the newbie gets ready....

Now, the Giants have a huge decision to make if Cleveland takes a QB.....

Do they take Barkley? Or if the #1 QB they wanted was not chosen by Cleveland, do they take a QB? Or if some deranged GM makes an offer you can't refuse, do they go in that direction?

This is the first time that I have seen a group of supposedly good QB's, with no front runner or sure fire tag on one of them...
