Shefter said earlier today he still believes the giants would pick sanders if they like him, despite any signings they make at qb including if Wilson signed-


From Schefters lips to Giants draft card.
 


Interesting verbiage from Adam
 
From Schefters lips to Giants draft card.

Would hope so, but im not sure its very likely. Think our best bet is cle takes sanders and nyg falls in love with carter
 
Wilson to giants
Ugh


Well the question is does that change anything for them as far as being interested in drafting a QB high? I don't think so. You could argue they'll be less likely to do so. but this is a 1 year deal. They certainly don't have faith in Wilson long term. But he may well be able to win a few extra games for them this year. This is something they need to consider carefully going into the draft. Let's say Wilson helps raise their offense from 16.1PPG to 19.1 PPG (not impossible considering they had 3 QBs start last year and none were impressive).

Maybe now instead of 3-14 and having a top 3 pick they go 5-12 or 6-11 and have they the 8th or 9th pick. For all we know Arch Manning may even not come out that year. Not like he needs the money after all. He can take another year, and has stated he plans to. I don't see why he would lie. So that is 1 QB off the board. Nussmeier right now seems like the #1 pick, and they won't get him. That could change of course and he could end up falling out of the first entirely.

Sellers is a guy many are penciling in as the current #2... he probably won't last till the Giants pick, and Frankly Sanders is probably a better prospect anyway. There are serious questions if there is even another QB who is likely to project as a starter level guy at this point.

Maybe Nelson or Lameleava or Allar? Who knows? The point is they will be picking the 3rd or 4th guy... 4th or 5th down when Arch decides not to declare depending on how you look at it. People want to act like this could be a monster QB class... and it could be. But right now you see grades for the top 7 or so guys all over the place from #1 overall to the 5th round. Hard to be so confident in such a class. Particularly when you know likely 1st and 2nd choice won't be yours.

The point is... the Giants should still strongly considering taking this chance to target a QB for the future. If he bust in 2 year they may still be in a position to get Arch.

I think we know Hunter won’t be there so we lock Diggs.
 
They want arch manning.
If they are in a spot to take Manning the guys there now won't be working for them anymore.

You can't count on being in position to draft a top QB prospect. You basically, most drafts, need to be top 2. Counting on finishing with one of the 2 worst records is a recipe for disaster.
 
The Daboll and Schoen aren’t drafting the son of the guy who’d be their successor as HC/GM no later than 2026 if they did.
 
I think Trapilo is more of a 3rd round pick.
I agree with that, but I also didn't think that Kingsley and Patrick Paul were 2nd rounders either. I thought they were both 3rd round talents so I am bumping Trapilo up based on positional value as a OT.
 
Haha. Ellis was terrible. Look at how our run D played, then watch the film and see Ellis’ part in it.
I guarantee you would never again say he played very well.

And if you look at him in coverage it’s even worse.
To be fair our entire defense with the exception of Gonzo was a whole bag of dirty ass.

Paul could still pan out. Sumataia is probably going to be moved inside because they signed a tackle in free agency, and he was buried on their depth chart.
