I am happy with this pick didn't like any of the QBs was hoping for trade down but barkley best player in this draft
I suspect Webb is a big part of this pick. I think they believe he’s in the same ballpark, talent wise, as any of the QBs they could have drafted. We’ll see.
RE: People bitching about drafting the best football player in the draft Â
Despite position or whatever, you simply can’t pass on talent and strive for average simply because the guy plays a position you arbitrarily undervalue.
the play action pass is now back in the playbook Â
Both Chubb and Nelson will be perennial All Pros and both fill positions of drastic need. Barkley will be a disappointment. He can't block and he can't break tackles.
Can suck it. Case fucking Keenum was within an eyelash of going to the Super Bowl this year.
Operation Suck4Saquan complete!!!!!
This +1000
He was within an eye lash of not winning one playoff game. He was not within an eyelash of going to the Super Bowl, they got fucking smoked in that game.
The value just isn't there if Denver was looking to come up Â
it's a RB. He's a great prospect but you roll the dice to see if Cleveland takes him at 4. You'd still have the choice of two of three best players in the draft. It's just silly, the Giants never ever approach the draft with any sense of tactics. Always up never down. Moronic.
is the fourth highest paid RB in the league, and plays a position with one of the shortest average careers.
I was OK drafting him, as long as Darnold wasn't on the board. I didn't really want Darnold, but he would have been better choice than Barkley. So would a trade down.
this is a terrible. I don't want 3.7 YPC, 50 catches and an occasional return TD from this guy. We passed on a huge haul for this pick not to mention the QB's.
Barkley is pretty consistently described as the best player in this Â
Operation Suck4Saquan complete!!!!!
We hope
Finally the Giants can have a running game. I fully expect the second round pick will be an OL (Price/Hernandez)
What a f-ckin disaster Jints Central is. They never disappoint.
Let's wait until your Redskins pick.
We need a HOF RB here out of this pick
I would've drafted Darnold, but this is just ridiculous. Barkley is an infinitely better prospect than Wilson.

do you not trade down
Maybe they examined recent history and said, "You know, trading down from a top-5 pick hasn't really worked out very well has it?"
Or maybe they didn’t get offered anything they liked.
I always love people say, “Should’ve trader down.” like its as easy as Madden.
DG is not the man I thought he was.. just terrible.

Short sighted. If this was 1980 i'd be thrilled, but the game has changed and you need a long term answer at QB.
They will have even more egg on their face if Darnold turns into a star.
The biggest problem I have is Barkley could be Barry Sanders and it will still be the wrong pick if Darnold turns into a star

I cannot agree more.

Could have gotten at least another 1st rounder.
Yes. Because David Wilson and Barkley are so similar. Come on man.
haha .. the Jets future is now more exciting than the Giants.. you will rue this pick. We all will.
Such anger. All of these QBs have warts. Barkley's wart is "you can't take a RB that high!"
Then become a jets fan!!!

Play action isn't actually that affected by a run game according to all the stats.

And NICK FOLES won it.
Over Tom Brady.
Again... past results do not guarantee future outcomes. The league changes and evolves often.
Pat Shurmer knows his QB's. Either he sees something in Davis Webb, or perhaps he didn't even love any of these.
Let's see how things play out before we go fucking apeshit.

Remember, all of these QB’s have major red flags. They could all be busts. A lot of you are acting like they are all sure fire stars.
Even if he's Marshall Faulk, Darnold better not become Drew Brees, if he does it's an epic disaster no matter how good Barkley is.
Poor value. I don't know any other way to describe it, poor value.

This x 1,000.
The Barkley fan club just doesn't get it. You're not going anywhere without a QB and the Giants just blew their best chance to get one.
