Giants not likely to move away from Eli

It is possible this is a smokescreen to get the Browns to not go for a QB with #1.

 

But if true, this completely shakes up the draft. Now only the Browns,  Broncos, Jets & Cards (picks in front of us) are QB needy. Assuming Cousins goes to Minny, if a couple of the  above teams go with the members of the Minny troika (Bridgewater, Keenum and Bradford) or AJ McCarron - we can get one of the top 4 QBs without moving up!!

Been saying it all off-season. They may be in the QB market, but I'm thinking more the Mike White/ Kyle Laulettas of the draft.

 

That said, would be a great landing spot for Allen so he has a few years to learn. But Barkley would look good in Blue. So would Billy Price after they trade back. Going to be a fun draft.

But those QBs ren’t the ones that “matter” according to Beane.

Actually we really have no idea which QBs "matter" to Beane. If a GM is sitting at 21 and 22 with no interest of trading up, Darnold/Allen/Rosen won't matter...they will be gone. Maybe to him Jackson/Rudolph/White matter because they are in his range. Classic case of assuming he's meaning what we are all hoping for.

 

That said here's to hoping he pulls that trigger and makes a move on up...

I could see Luke Falk going to the Giants day two or three. He's been compared to Eli a few times, and could be groomed. I still like the guy. 

 

...could see Gettleman counting on Eli for a MAX two years.....trading out of #2 for pick(s) (and not with McBeane IMO), shoring up their O line, and addressing RB situation later as well as a later QB to compete with Eli & Webb in TC.......just an opinion.....

"When New Orleans was having that great run, part of it was the Super Bowl win, what did they do – they had two hog molly guards because there isn’t a quarterback alive who’s gonna get in the huddle and say, OK boys, let ‘em up the middle and I’ll deal with it," Gettleman said. "You need to be firm in the middle."

 

LOL

 

Sounds as though Gettleman has a viewpoint on what Eli's problem may have been

If we were to go to 2 and get Rosen or Mayfield I would lose my ****.  Picks 21, 22, one of our seconds and next year's first, I don't care if that is what it takes.  If you are right about the QB, he is worth twice that amount.  I hope they pull the trigger this year.

That is a great line :)

 

I honestly think guard play is underappreciated.

They already have a Lauletta/ Mike White type in Davis Webb.
