If you just are comparing prior QBs which have been drafted by the regime, it makes almost too much sense that the Giants would want Drake Maye.

In fact, I am amazed that most people don’t see this.

Maybe, but NE could just take Maye or McCarthy at 3.

That's easier said than done.

To move up to three, you have to give up next year's #1 and other picks. Next year's #1 has a good chance to be a top ten pick. And you don't really want Maye thrown to the wolves as a rookie.

If Maye turns out to be stud, it's well worth it.

But if he doesn't, the team won't recover for five years.

Not saying don't do it, but you have to understand the true stakes here.

Agreed, they likely only make this move if they have a deal in place to go right back up to pick 4 with AZ.

I personally dislike Schrager who comes across as a buffoonish clown every time I have seen him. How about he's just making shit up. Really multiple teams called him a guy who it hardly seems like would have any connections of import in the league. And if he did how about maybe its a plant from Arizona that wants Minnesota to think maybe the Cards have other offers out there so if they want #4 they better sweeten the pot.

Rudy5757 : 4/17/2024 9:48 pm : link
is already fighting for his job so he may in fact swing for the fences. If he succeeds he will be here, if he fails he will be fired and wont have to worry about what he gave up. But with Jones being an owner fav and Mara probably wanting Jones to have one more fighting chance I would bet that the Giants have to stick at 6 and only take a QB if he is there and most likely get a stud WR to help DJ.

My guess is Maye is the guy if available at 6. He didnt have a great season but if he was in last years draft he would have a higher grade imo based on potential. I think McCarthy is the smart player, knows the game but doesnt have the wow factor. Basically his ceiling is a low end top 10 QB but most likely a middle of the pack guy.

AcidTest : 4/17/2024 10:00 pm : link
still think NE picks a QB at #3. If they pick JJM, then the Giants and the Vikings will likely get in a bidding war for Maye at #4. I have repeatedly said that I think bidding wars are a terrible draft strategy, but teams do it almost every year for QBs. Schoen would have to at least offer #6, #47, and our #1 next year because Minnesota would likely offer #11, #23, and their #1 and #3 next year. Both offers are competitive, but we should have the edge because Arizona would only be dropping to #6 and already has a lot of draft capital this year. All of this assumes that Arizona even wants to trade.

If Maye somehow slips to #5, then the Vikings have the edge IMO since I can't believe Schoen would make the same offer to move up one spot.

If NE picks Maye, then there is really no reason to trade up to #4 or #5. Minnesota is unlikely to make the same offer for JJM, preferring instead to stay at #11 and take Penix. And no other team would likely be able to move to #4 or #5.

I would take JJM if he gets to #6. But if he does and the Giants don't want him, then they will likely have several suitors who want to move up to #6. At least one of those offers could entice them to trade down, even though by doing so they would almost certainly miss out on all of the "big three" WRs. I could see Minnesota offering #11 and #23 for #6. It would be very ironic if instead of competing with the Vikings, they became our trade partner.

"scared money don't make money" quip by Schoen was about whether they should trade down, not up, although I suppose it could be used to support doing both.

Schoen and Daboll were worried Schmitz would not be available at #57. When he was, Schoen made the remark as a joke to alleviate the tension. Nobody wanted to trade down and risk losing Schmitz.

Something in this draft has to be about getting a new QB. Either taking one in Rd1. Or navigating up for one of the Tier 2 guys. Or (as you state) trading down for assets to set yourself up better in 2025 to pick your guy.

Not sure which is the optimum path, but do Something.

Whether we go QB or WR or trade up giving up the number one year makes me worry. Whomever we draft at one this year I still think the Giants will be picking in the top ten next year. This is a pessimistic view but lets keep the number one in 25

...that maybe they have some space in their ratings among the top 3 WRs possibly with scheme fit.

One of the exacerbating factors in their awful pass protection is that they haven't really had a boundary WR that wins quickly off the line since OBJ. Hyatt and Slayton both have the top end speed but are bigger downfield threats (and Slayton almost never shows up until we're down a couple scores.....and the timing of his holdout might indicate a guy that knows his targets could plummet) . Even if Golladay wasn't damaged good that we overpaid for it's the same thing - he didn't separate until he was downfield.

That makes me wonder if they might have Odunze scored a little lower since he's not the polished route runner or as crafty off the line and tends to lean on positioning. Thus if QBs go 1/2/3 they're trying to coax someone to jump them for McCarthy. SD is almost surely going WR given they jettisoned both their starters (Harbaugh was also Marvin Harrison Sr's first NFL QB).

Also, don't discount the value of the Cowden/Ossenfort relationship. I think it at the very least gets us the opportunity to match a better offer.
