Augie Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) We are definitely lucky! One more QB fell to us last year, and Ed Oliver fell to us this year. Thank you Giants! . Edited June 6, 2019 by Augie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They appear to be a disaster. I'm not sure how that glorified gym teacher still has a job. I've had my criticisms but I don't know how Beane and McDermott seem so much more competent coming up under him. Maybe it's like one of those things where you have a boss or parent who has some glaring short comings and refuses to acknowledge them so you never repeat the same mistakes.

When I 1st started watching & the guy keeps repeating "Take Josh Allen" I thought it was a clip from last year & I expected to hear the name Barkley and then expected to see the same guy a year later when they picked Jones. All those Giants fans who wanted LB Josh Allen must have thought they could steal Josh Allen from the Bills just by drafting a guy with the same name. ? Seriously, Giants fans reacted the same way in 1979 when the Giants took Phil Simms, so I wouldn't count out Jones as their long term answer.

I think the "least happy," I've been in recent memory was when they picked Spiller at 9. Of course, by the next day, I'd somehow talked myself into thinking it was a great pick. But that's the last time that I was pretty silent and went, "huh?" in response to a Bills first round pick. These past couple seasons have been pleasantly different for me!

Homey D. Clown Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 My moment like that, or should I say moments were when we picked 'lil Donte Whitner at 8, but my biggest throat punch from this franchise came when they announced EJ Manuel. I think I just about quit on this team that year. The Aaron Maybin pick was another one of those head scratchers, but the EJ pick nearly broke me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to the Giants, the destiny of Allen, Allen, Jones and Barkley are far from written. They could turn out to be very right, very wrong or totally break even. The only fair criticism for now, IMO, is to say Jones could have been had later than 6 which seems to be likely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally would have traded back again and then take Manual who was the best Quarterback in that draft. Not that it says much. Picks I hated most were Spiller when we had good backs and the trade up for a WR in a Strong WR draft for Watkins. In my Mocks that year I had us trading back and getting Martin G, Benjamin WR and Martavius Bryant Edited June 6, 2019 by Hatszel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd Allan Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I was pretty angry after the Bills picked Maybin (with Orakpo still on the board), EJ Manuel (bad year for a QB) and Watkins (using 2 first round picks when a guy like Evans would be at our original spot, all to help EJ look good). Now that I think about it, I was pretty annoyed by the selections of Willis McGahee, John McCargo, and Leodis McKelvin, too. I thought there were better players available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Allen was being talked about in some circles as the best QB prospect in terms of ceiling. Josh Allen was expected to go top 10. None of those things are true for Daniel Jones who was graded to be a 2nd round pick at best most the off season, and then late hype had him maybe as a mid to late mid round QB once the others went off the board. Additionally, there wasn't generational and elite defensive talent still on the board either when Allen was picked, plus our D was solid already and we all desperately wanted and needed a QB. So not really comparable. Means nothing, but on draft night the Daniel Jones pick was shocking to just about anyone, even to those who thought it could happen still thought it was a terrible move with the other QB's on the board, defensive Josh Allen and Oliver.

Albany,n.y. Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) Meanwhile, Jones is making Gettleman look smarter than the media guys who mock drafted him much lower & the people who believed them: Daniel Jones outplayed Eli Manning in the New York Giants' minicamp. It was obvious, and it wasn't really close. Through three days of full-squad sessions, the sixth overall pick in April's draft looked like a better quarterback than Manning. He wasn't just more athletic (that's to be expected); he was also sharper, more accurate and more willing and able to challenge the defense with difficult downfield throws. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2839815-giants-may-not-admit-it-but-daniel-jones-already-a-better-fit-than-eli-manning Edited June 7, 2019 by Albany,n.y.

I expected Jones to go to the Giants in the 1st round all along . Even though I thought he'd be picked at 17, the Giants were sold on him (not Haskins as "the experts" thought) and really, if a team is sold on a QB why risk him not being there 11 picks away. I remember the Giants getting a lot of flack for picking Phil Simms at #7 and that turned out OK. Just because a guy is underhyped by the media doesn't mean teams don't have a 1st round grade on him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. I don't personally like Jones as a prospect, but fan reaction will have absolutely no bearing on anything. Half of it looked scripted anyway. Ironically, the same fans whining will be loving them some Jones if he lights it up in the preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude you need to go back and see all the hate comments of Josh Allen in here, it was really bleak for quite some time. I think the videos would have been similar but it would have went like this "Josh Allen over Josh Rosen? Beane needs to be fired immediately".

Main weakness, as was explained to me on this board, he doesn't have very good arm strength. He's a big kid, and fairly athletic. I think his college prep was a little more conventional than Allen's. It's possible he may develop into a halfway decent QB, but lack of arm strength will be a limitation. I think the main criticism of Gettleman's draft strategy was not the fact that he drafted Jones, but that he drafted him where he did. Many think the Giants could have gotten him with their second round pick, but they could have at least traded down from #6 to do it.
