Give the Giants next years #1 and they still get Barkley at #4. That should work for all 3 teams, as has been discussed. Giants staying pat at #2 and not picking a QB is a fireable offense.

Chuck Wagon Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I think the Baker instragram last night tipped the pick. If Schefter is reporting it, that’s where I believe. Darnold goes #2. Is he a Giant or is he a Bill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they like Mayfield's story but based on everything they have said about a franchise QB i don't think they would target someone his size I don't think size matters to them. As McDermott recently said, they covet accuracy. Hopefully that means we like Mayfield or Rosen because they're the two guys I want. If Mayfield goes #1, our draft is completely pooched. Will go #1 Mayfield, #2 Darnold, #3 Rosen, #4 Barkley, and we better not get trigger happy and trade up for crappy Josh Allen just to get somebody. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what's clinging me to hope they won't take Allen. It's his main issue and something Beane says a QB must have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Some food for though for those who think NYG are taking a QB. An offense with Beckham,Barkley,Engram ,Shepherd...add in Solder at LT. Then you throw in draft picks added in a trade for additional OL help. Pretty damn good with Eli pulling the trigger. Flip side a rookie QB, no Barkley still need to draft a back, no additional picks, Eli has a big contract Gettleman has drafted a RB very high before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrod's friend Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 First ... as I've always said: Baker Mayfield, #1 overall ... for literally a month or more. Second ... there is and has always been too much smoke around this choice. Baker is physically similar to the incumbent and plays, despite what you think, a remarkably similar game. The GM has said that this was the player he personally scouted five times before he was even named GM. Their team is most aligned with statistical analysis and Baker Mayfield isn't just the best QB statistically this year, he's among the best over the last 20 years. Finally, he has played protective ball his entire life and this is a team that just took on the most protective NFL QB. There's this: he's the second best QB in this draft and the Browns long ago took Josh Rosen off their board. Finally, the Buffalo Bills suddenly decided to go to the West Coast in mid-April to see Sam Darnold. The only thing that changes the mock board significantly is if Baker Mayfield goes #1. It changes the Jets from Mayfield to Rosen and leaves Darnold open to being taken at 4 or below - a price/value ratio that Beane can swallow. (People have said here that the Bills were rumored to have loved Darnold all along. Maybe - but they never were going to be in the market to get to #1 and probably, #2.)

bobobonators Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Mayfield is 6 foot nothing. Ran a HS offense in college. Has an attitude problem. And he gets love like no other. I don’t get it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eli Manning is 37 years old and has been steadily declining for 3 years. They need a QB of the future and it's a perfect situation for a QB to step into with no expectations to start immediately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody assumes the Giants are passing on a QB but I don't understand that logic. Manning is nearing the end & the Gmen may not be in this spot again for the forseeable future. We are not getting Mayfield/Rosen/Darnold is my guess. Unless Beane loves Allen(which is entirely possible) stay put at 12 & take a shot at Jackson.

Baker Mayfield upgrades their offense enormously. Mayfield, with Josh Gordon, Jarvis Landry and David Njoku could be an amazing offense. They also might have a shot at Barkley at 4, and if they don't, they can trade down and try to pick up picks to grab a franchise LT.

Virgil Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 If it happens and the Giants take Darnold, then I don't know if I would even be angry. You can't make a team trade with you and the only thing we could have done differently is beat out the Jets trade. You can't control what you can't control. Use the 6 picks and make a really solid team so that AJ is just a game manager. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
