I would research the draft every year and really got it to it. That said after year after year the Giants would just not really go by any draft board that made sense. I decided it was a waste of time and energy doing the work so now I just watch and hope we get it right. Last year was a really happy draft for me seeing I wanted Mayfield or Barkley. This year I like the QB just not at the pick we took him at Allen seemed like the better choice. I am not a Haskins guy he scares me.
Jones surprised me at 6. But really only because I read and trusted what a lot of people said, who may only know a bit more than I do, or who may have a cousin in the team’s motor pool who filtered a nuance of an opinion.
No knock on the BBI asshats. But maybe there are levels of asshattery, just like there are levels of “knowledgeable fans.”
I've watched team after team win the "media section" of the draft only to have the players bust, while teams like Seattle and New England take guys on no ones boards and turn them into all pros.
