Oh please..Your post is fine. I was just interested to see what people who really like Murray would trade to get him..

Now Fat Mara, he’s another thing.

So nothing.

The Giants need their picks and this guy is a huge risk.

Yes, the entire draft is a crap shoot. This guy personifies that fact.

"The Giants traded the 4 pick, the following years 1st and a 3rd and a 5th to move up for Eli Manning"

Think how much more talent they would have had if they kept Rivers.

The NFL has such a bias against small players that it's ridiculous. Its been that way for decades and there is absolutely nothing factual to back it up.

Small players in the NFL who get hurt, in general, get hurt because they're already injury prone or they just had bad luck - just like the bigger players. Its not because they're small.

Other than a few minor bumps and bruises - no more or less than any other player - Murray doesn't have an injury history in college. If he could take the hits in college (or avoid them) the most likely scenario is that he'll do the same in the NFL.

I wouldn't give up anything for Murray. If he fell to the Giants, I'd draft him in a heartbeat...but if not, there are just too many other holes on the roster right now to burn multiple picks on one guy - even if its a franchise QB.

He'll never last in the league

Hard Pass

to short with short arms. He is also a running QB which means he is more apt to get hurt. I would not draft him if he was available with the 6th pick.

people are really underrating his potential. His floor might be low, but his ceiling is 'multiple MVP' caliber.

I for one think he's going to be superstar in this league and would use #6, 17 and 2nd rounder (maybe next year) to get him.

Hard to wrap my head around him as a Giants quarterback. It sure would be different.

Guess I m stuck in the “get off my lawn mode “ here. I wouldn’t trade up. But if Giants do I will be behind it.

Otherwise I am out on a trade up. Happy to sit at 6 and see who’s there.

your bank account.

that way I don't throw it when he's picked

them doing the 6, 37 and a 2nd next year, probably would need to add another 3rd or fourth rounder. Think the injury concerns are overblown, he’s a pass first QB and talented runner. He isn’t RGIII or Vick. Worth the risk and the prospects of him and Barkley together sounds like a great combo.

If the Cards don’t take him somehow I hope they try to trade up to get him, or by some miracle he drops to 6.

The Giants trading up cannot be considered for what the cost would take away from the team in building up and according to plan.

You can have my answer now, if you like. My offer is this: nothing.

...

#6 and #37.

I think the guy has star written all over him and I think I will be very difficult for a defensive player to get a good shot at him.

We have to many holes to fill and this is a deep draft.

If Murray were to fall to 6, and the brass felt he was the right guy for the team going forward this year behind Eli, then so be it. If not, pick BPA at 6, 17, and 37. Too many holes to fill

I’m going to tell you all I told you so.

...and if he doesn’t, most likely you’ll have forgotten I said anything, lol.

A lot. I think Matt from SGS suggested a while back that it may cost the 6, 17, 95, and a 2020 2nd. I’d be fine with that.

I think his upside represents to much, but I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't on our board at all. Size and personality concerns.

Haha I was thinking the same thing.

and is a pass first qb who is as mobile as a 3rd down running back.

That's a lot, even for a top QB prospect — but if they think he's their guy, they should go get him, they way they went and got Eli.

I don't have strong feelings about Murray. He was amazing in college but it's a different game in the NFL.

I have a sense he'll be there at 6 and we pass on him.

Easy pass here.

so we can see how many people here embarrassed themselves with their shortsighted and unresearched opinion. This thread will end up looking a lot like the pre-draft Patrick Mahomes thread for a couple of years ago. Murray is going to an absolute stud and I'd give up 6, 17, and our 2nd rounder to get him.

But if he fell to 3 or 4 (Jets/Oak) and one of those teams would take 6, 37 and one of the 4s or 5s, I would do it. (But it would likely take more.)

I think Murray has a chance to be a star in the NFL and I'm a "gamble on greatness" type of drafter.

Not even the $20,000 for the gaming license, which I would appreciate if you would put up personally.

You do realize, that’s the best contribution to this site bw central has ever made, yes?

You remember Fran Tarkenton. This kid is Tark with a rocket engine.

Except Tarkenton was never a runner. He scrambled to keep a play alive or to go out of bounds. Murray is a runner. He, like all runners, are far more susceptible to the big hit than a scrambler is

Him before Rd 3. Not an NFL QB

Are you saying that Rivers is better? Not in my book. So we threw in a pick used on a kicker and I believe a busy edge rusher. I’ll take Eli and our two championships.

One big hit away from disaster. But, if he's the next Russel Wilson - he can deliver a Lombardi Trophy.

I'd prefer to give up just 6 and either 17 or 37 in a trade up.

I think it's a moot point because Arizona is going to take him.

the Giants have enough points with picks 6, 17 and 37 to trade up to the first pick - that's if they go according the the Trade Value Chart. Actually we have 80 extra points. Could that have been a small factor in the Beckham trade?
Trade Value Chart - ( New Window )

because if I move up I want one of the big 3 lock stud Def players. However if AZ passed on Murray and he fell to 4 then I would give up my 3rd this year and 2nd next year.

Here is how I try and judge players. If you put Daniel Jones or Dwayne Haskins or Lock on Oklahoma they would better, but wouldn't match Kyler Murray in numbers with exception of Haskins. If you put Kyler Murray on Mizz, Duke, Ohio State, etc he would beat their stats outside of maybe Haskins.

He is the best QB in this draft and special.

I’m not losing any sleep to get Murray. Same as last year, I didn’t care about any of the qbs and definitely preferred Barkley.

I’d give up the 6, the 17, next year’s 1 and 3 if Mike Leach is coming along in the deal to teach the Air Raid to the Giants offense in the few May/June walk throughs and no contact practices, and during the padded practice restrictions during trading camp and the pre-season. :-]

6, 17 and the 2ND rounder although initial offer would be 6, 17 and 3Rd rounder.
Yeah, there's other holes to fill however the QB situation must be addressed. If not this year then next. Worry about plugging the holes next year with your full allotment if draft picks and all the cap money you'll have.
