They are not going QB at 6.

You dont sit a QB picked at 6 for 2 years and they are ready to signal that this is Elis last year.


Why would they sit that QB for 2 years? Eli only has 1 year left on his deal.

Please tell me it’s Lock if they go that route


I couldn't possibly say with 100% conviction but I have enough reason to believe Haskins is the preferred choice of the QBs. If he's not, that's where I got smoke screened lol. Haven't heard too much in regards to Lock or Jones with NYG tbh. More for Grier.


So everyone is hearing different things

SO, someone(s) are getting smoked;)
Rapaport

better STFU before jtgiants smacks the shit out of him. Biotch
My friend in Atlanta Falcons front office

indicated Giants have been inquiring with them about moving up a few slots to #14 to get ahead of Redskins. Offering a middle and late round pick to do so.
That's the hot spot for QB  
JonC : 4/19/2019 6:18 pm : link
getting ahead of the Skins.

Whoa that is big news, thanks for posting!
JonC was adamant that the Giants were not going QB last year  
Jay on the Island : 4/19/2019 6:29 pm : link
He mentioned on numerous occasions than he hadn't heard a peep about the Giants and Rosen despite the Giants doing a ton of homework on him and even taking him out to dinner. I remember Colin from GBN predicting that the Giants would take Rosen last year based on what he was hearing. Obviously JonC's information was much better than Colin's. For the record this is not a knock on Colin I was just saying the media often hears what teams want them to hear. This year it's Haskins who he hasn't heard anything on which makes me think that he will definitely not be the pick if the Giants go QB.
Trading up for a QB  
GothamGiants : 4/19/2019 6:35 pm : link
is a nauseating proposition
Yes thats what I surmised with my friend  
Jimmy Googs : 4/19/2019 6:37 pm : link
Giants go defense with first pick and if "their guy" at QB is sitting there around #14 then Giants jump ahead of Redskins into Falcons spot.

He couldn't confirm all that obviously but agreed with presumption.
The Giants better be right on the defender they pick at 6  
ZogZerg : 4/19/2019 7:03 pm : link
He better be significantly better than one they could get at 17.
So the Giants  
mittenedman : 4/19/2019 7:59 pm : link
like Jones enough to trade up from 17 but they dont like him enough to take him at 6. Do people really believe this stuff?

It could be they like the QB but there’s also an elite/higher graded prospect available at 6 so they stay true to their board - like a smart team should

team needs to get a lot better at many positions...this is about value when you pick too.

I agree with you to an extent but they could have 2-3 QBs clustered together with none carrying an elite grade. That could account for them taking stud defender at 6 and then moving up to the 11-15 range.
The Giants  
mittenedman : 4/19/2019 8:31 pm : link
having 2-3 QBs bunched together and not caring which 1 they get is equally unbelievable.

I believe theyll have a conviction on a particular QB abd when they do, they’ll make sure they get him. When that point comes, they wont risk him over 8 slots. No effing way.

I appreciate the asshat reports just asuch as anyone but this one fell off the logic trails. Not buying it. We’ll find out soon enough.
That's fair  
AcesUp : 4/19/2019 8:36 pm : link
And what you say makes sense. It doesn't mean that's how the Giants think though.
2-3 QBs clustered  
GothamGiants : 4/19/2019 8:41 pm : link
Means none are worth taking
Not really  
AcesUp : 4/19/2019 8:45 pm : link
The "in love with the QB" thing is mostly fan fairy tale bullshit. You evaluate the QBs and figure out which warts you're willing to live with and which guy(s) you're comfortable running your offense.

When you look at their board, there's a grade next to their name not a heart eye emoji or frowny face emoji.
I have a hard time  
GothamGiants : 4/19/2019 8:51 pm : link
seeing how any QB will grade over a defensive prospect at 6 or 17, but we shall see

A guy like Burns, Bush, or Dexter Lawrence will likely be sitting there at 17 ... I just can’t see taking QB over any of them.

This draft needs to get here ASAP - interesting times.

Nope  
Joey in VA : 4/19/2019 9:22 pm : link
Nope, Nope. I know more about than the NYG than Ian Rappaportawhoever.
Conviction is one of the more poorly used terms around draft day  
Jimmy Googs : 4/20/2019 8:25 am : link
especially by fans that think GM's draft boards are developed without flaws and biases. Conviction should be seen as more of the ultimate goal that probably is rarely ever achieved, at least not at 100%.

Wake up and smell the coffee as I have my first cup of the day...
