He said he thinks Maye is the QB they want. However, he thinks the only way they land him is if Maye lasts to #4 and then the Giants trade up.
Barring that scenario, he thinks they stand pat at #6 and "let the draft come to them."
Does think it is possible they trade back up into the first round to take Penix or Nix.
Spending time with a QB does not mean, you are getting the answers you want....
I think that's my dream scenario right now for something that I feel could realistically happen. I like JJM a lot, but I don't think he lasts to 6 and even then Schoen might prefer Odunze. Penix sliding is much stronger of a possibility than many realize here.
I seriously doubt they spend the #3 pick on JJ McCarthy.
He doesn’t say they wouldn’t draft McCarthy at 6.

Then the way to 3 is by going up to 4 first. Who knows though, you can't believe anything you hear right now. I do believe we have been adamantly working to trade up for Maye. Will be interesting, T-11 days 7 hrs 39 minutes and counting..
I seriously doubt they spend the #3 pick on JJ McCarthy.
I'm saying if NE likes JJM then we could entice them by trading up to 4 then 3 so NE is guaranteed a QB they like (Maybe more than Maye as many analysts do).
What?
I don't see Wolf trading down. He'd be an idiot to do so. You don't trade down if you need a QB and can take one at your pick. Whiffing on a QB you take with a top-five pick might get you fired. But trading that pick to a team that then used it to take a franchise QB almost certainly will. It could also mean never getting another GM job.
NE could also miss out on JJM if they trade with us. There is no guarantee they could then trade up to #4 or #5 if they did so. Arizona and San Diego might refuse to trade or take a better offer from another team. They would then have to overdraft Nix or Penix at #6 or probably lose both of them as well, since neither will likely make it to their second round pick.
If Maye gets to #4, then I assume Minnesota will offer Arizona #11, #23, and their #1 and #3 next year. Schoen could counter with #6, #47, and our #1 next year. That should be competitive, because at worst Arizona would still have their choice of two of the top three WRs at #6. They also have a lot of draft capital this year.
If the QBs go Williams, Daniels, Maye, then I assume based on some of the asshat reports that the Giants will not trade up for JJM. What would be interesting is if they took one of the WRs instead of JJM at #6, or traded down with another team that wanted to move up to take him. I would take JJM in that situation.

I don’t see any scenario where the Giants end up with Odunze and Penix. Penix is not making it to 46, and if they trade down to pick up another 1st rounder, Odunze won’t be there.

this is how i see it. if JJM gets to 6 i think they'd pull the trigger.
so i guess i think JJM vs Maye to NE at #3 is where the draft starts because i think that's a close call that could go either way.
followed by arizona at 4. do they do what they did last year or take the star? will anderson ended up a star and he had arguably as much "best player in the draft" hype as MHJ so they know both sides well.
I really think given how close they're rated they would take odunze over Nabers. Between Toney and Neal with his burger flipping comment I think they need a guy who you know isn't going to be a headache
I don't either, I believe it's Odunze or Nabers. I'm assuming Minnesota trades up to 4 or 5 for JJ in any case.
We currently have no hope at QB and also only 6 picks in this draft.
I’d love to gain from the fact that there will be actual non QB blue chip talent available at 6. Game the Falcons and then the Bears. Get a 2nd and a 3rd. Take JJM or Penix at 9 and build with two 2nds and two 3rds.
One can dream.
Is Penix and Nix worth a 1st and 2nd? Not to me. That's the problem with not picking a QB at 6. Rattler or Pratt would be more viable in the 3rd.

Do not get the rattler appeal whatsoever

Don't be silly. Rattler and Pratt may as well be DeVito.
Harbaugh certainly is, so the QBs go 1-4 and he gets the top non-QB pick in the draft.
Yep, that's what I think. The other day, Schoen said something about "if the 4 QBs are gone before pick 6..." it almost seemed like he was trying to give the impression that he viewed JJM in the same group as the others, but came across to me like it was a preconceived misdirection

Up will involve the 2025 1st.

And Penix has had numerous shoulder and ACL surgeries and people want go give up the 2nd and next years 1st rounder. Too huge of a risk.

Penix is so superior a QB to those two, he is worth taking a chance on picking.
This is very hard to follow.
Are you actually saying trade up for any QB not named Maye?
My current guess is:
1) Williams - Chicago
2) Daniels - DC
3) JJM - Minnesota
I don't think the move from 6 > 4 will be as costly as some predict. But given Arizona doesn't need picks in 2024, I think the 2025 first round pick will be the cost.
4) Maye - NYG
5) MHJr - LA
6) Nabers - AZ
My current guess is:
1) Williams - Chicago
2) Daniels - DC
3) JJM - Minnesota

4) Maye - NYG
5) MHJr - LA
6) Nabers - AZ
If Minnesota trades up with NE - would we have too? Shouldn’t Maye be available at 6? I don’t think Vegas or Denver has the ammo to jump us.
I would rather take a chance on next year's draft or have the Gants sign a free-agent QB, i.e. Prescot.
The worst-case scenario is drafting a QB who does not have the potential to be great and tying the future to mediocrity.
That would perpetuate QB hell.
I do not see greatness in Penix, Nix, et al.

1) Williams - Chicago
2) Daniels - DC
3) JJM - Minnesota

The Chargers have a ton of needs. If the Eagles and Cowboys can make a draft day trade, the Chargers and Raiders can. 12, 44, and next year's first for instance could do it.

Gotcha. Thanks.
A trade down with Minny, our #6 for their #11 and #23 would be good too. We could then grab Nix or Penix at #11, and then come back with a top WR at #23.
He mentioned in their video how heavy defensively it is in next years class notably on the ends and for corners. Two very much premium positions.
I'd be for Schoen trading next years first in a move up from 6 but not from the 2nd round to pick a QB who's had numerous injuries and has warts himself with middle of the field work and working against pressure.
1) Williams - Chicago
2) Daniels - DC
3) Maye - NE
4) MHjr - AZ
5) JJMc - Minn
6) Odunze/Nabers

I have a friend who is a big Vikings fan. He says KOC loves Maye, and if they have a choice between Maye and McCarthy, it's going to be Maye.
