Haskins isn't falling to the 2nd round 

I have a hard time buying Gettelman, the "hog mollie" lover, taking a 5'9 QB 
Click to expand...
I know that ... but I definitely would not take Haskins with the 6 pick in the draft ... the next opportunity is the 2nd rd or trading up into the 1st round to get him ... I would only consider that if he dropped to the bottom half of the 1st. I'm not big on Haskins and I am not big on drafting a QBs high just because you need one ... I cant think of a time that that has ever worked out for any team. 

I would only take a QB early if I thought that he was a Franchise QB ... otherwise stick with Eli, sign Free agent, or trade for a QB like Flacco. I think Murray could be a Franchise QB like Russel Wilson or like what Mayfield looks like he could be and certainly better than Lamar Jackson. 

Hog Mollie is referring to his Oline ... I don't think he wants a Hog Mollie at QB and the 5' 9" thing is some crazy new rumor that has been started since we heard he will declare for the draft. He's listed at 5'10 - 5'11"

Kyler Murray or Dwayne Haskins ?

I think I would take Murray if he was available at 6 ... I would not take Haskins unless he dropped to the 2nd round or trade up if he dropped to the bottom of the 1st  round 

Murray with Barkley, Odell, Engram, Shepherd and the other WR, TE  and FB pieces is about as dynamic an offense that you will find

Neither? I don't watch college football, but I am not interested in an extra short QB. I was reading something from a talking head, maybe Kannel?, that was saying the 5-11 is generous as is his playing weight of 195. This screams "too small" to me. I like Haskin's moxie in trying to temp the star players, but I don't think he is a top 10 pick sorta player. Would rather they focus on the lines. 

 
Another high 1st Round QB ..#1 pick that couldnt hold Eli's jock strap when it comes to big games.

I'd rather pay Foles who has proved it

Moving onto the 2019 season.

The Giants have some big questions to answer before they move forward

Is Eli going to be the QB next season?

Are they going to cut OV?

Are they going to cut Jackrabbit?

Will they take a QB in the 1st round?

Will they franchise Collins?

How will they fix the OL?

 
I’ll give my answers

Is Eli going to be the QB next season?

I think he will be. I can see the Giants extending him into 2020 in an effort to reduce his 2019 cap number.

Are they going to cut OV?

Tough call here. He hasn’t played up to his cap number but is by far the best pass rusher on the roster, he is also really good against the run.

Are they going to cut Jackrabbit?

I think they should keep him

Will they take a QB in the 1st round?

I would prefer an edge rusher in the 1st round but I wouldn’t be mad if they took Haskins (provided they don’t trade up to do so)

Will they franchise Collins?  

They probably should

How will they fix the OL?

Sign a vet to play RT and draft a guy they can develop at tackle in the 2nd or 4th round to take over for Solder in a couple of years.

Is Eli going to be the QB next season?

Yes. I think he starts the season. I can't see any other QB on the roster starting, I can't see a draftee starting and I don't think they'll sign any FAs capable of beating Eli out of the position. If they chase QB before OLine, the problems will just continue.

Are they going to cut OV?

I feel that OV is gone. I am not sure what is wrong here, but seems less like a fit now than it did.

Are they going to cut Jackrabbit?

I hope not. There is noone left in secondary that has close to his coverage skills. This is a huge hole on a team with many of them. Losing Jackrabbit will make that hole deeper.

Will they take a QB in the 1st round?

I hope not. I want OL or DL. I suppose I might be ok with the OSU guy, but it will need to couple with strong focus on Oline.

Will they franchise Collins?

I am hoping they don't have to, but I think they'd be foolish not to lock him up anyway they can. Ideally they agree on a contract before they use the tag.

How will they fix the OL?

They need to find a dependable RT first and foremost. Wheeler did a great job, considering that is basically a backup at best. After that I think they need to look in upgrading the RG and Center, in that order. OL must be a draft focus for multiple years.

And a positive sign that the front office can recognize mistakes. Stewart's option is not being picked up. Whew. Reese? I am sure he would have re-upped for 100M over the next 2 years.

I agree with this and I think he should be back. He had a very good year while learning a new offense 

Are they going to cut OV?

Tough call here. He hasn’t played up to his cap number but is by far the best pass rusher on the roster, he is also really good against the run.

I watched OV very closely this season and was thouroughly unimpressed. He takes plays off, doesnt hustle and never seems to come up with a big play ... I would take Kerry Wynn over him in a heartbeat.

 Are they going to cut Jackrabbit?

I think they should keep him

They kinda have to keep him ... he's pretty good and their DB depth is terrible 

Will they take a QB in the 1st round?

I would prefer an edge rusher in the 1st round but I wouldn’t be mad if they took Haskins (provided they don’t trade up to do so)

God I hope not ... Rather sign a free agent or wait until the 2nd round ... I don't see a franchise QB in the draft . I'd take Murray, Jones or Lock in the 2nd  ... though I would much rather wait until next year when there are a number of franchise QBs 

Will they franchise Collins?  

They probably should

Not sure there is anyone else worth using it on 

How will they fix the OL?

Sign a vet to play RT and draft a guy they can develop at tackle in the 2nd or 4th round to take over for Solder in a couple of years.

I'd like them to Draft Jonah Williams for RT until he takes over for Solder and try to sign a center i.e. Matt Paradis ... That would solve the line problem

After the 2nd Round (OT and Possibly QB) ... I'm drafting primarily defense

It makes more sense to draft a QB in the first round and keep Eli for 2019 than sign a FA QB not named Kaepernick

Are they going to cut OV?

I think he's got to go. His figure is too massive and he wasn't close to a difference-maker run or pass. Once Snacks left Giants got destroyed in the run game.

Are they going to cut Jackrabbit?

If the Giants had a good read on Beal and he was legit, I could see cutting Jenkins. But not now, you need him and LC to return back to form.

Will they take a QB in the 1st round?

Oh yeah, you put Dwyane Haskins and his athletic talent behind Eli Manning and his knowledge, the future will be bright for the NY Giants.

Will they franchise Collins?

I think you have to tag him. You have to keep two of Vernon/Jenkins/Collins, and I pick the last two.

How will they fix the OL?

It'll hurt not taking an OL in the 1st, but they can still strike gold in Rounds 2-4, and try to sign a vet FA RT to replace Wheeler. Halapio will be back sometime by late Training camp (May?) and he can be a rotational piece.

This is goign to be a tricky offseason and draft, because the Giants are straddling Reload/Rebuild mode here. With Saquon Barkley removing all doubt who's the best player in the 2018 Draft, Giants have TWO Top 5 players at their position on O. If they can cobble together even a slightly above-average O line and tap into the depth at WR (Corey Coleman, Bennie Fowler and Cody Latimer looked like legit pieces the last 3-4 games of the year), that O is going to put up 24-28 a game.

The D has a ton of questions... what do you do with Olivier Vernon, Janoris Jenkins, and Landon Collins? The bend-but-don't-break D broke hard once Snacks left, and BJ Hill and Dalvin Tomlinson had to learn their job on the fly. There were some bright spots at LB with BJ Goodson, Lorenzo Carter and OCCASIONALLY Curtis Riley, but it was rough most of the year. Giants have to find a way to get depth on O and D as they are very top-heavy, but they did find some gems as Spencer Pulley and Jamon Brown helped turn a godawful line into a kinda passable NFL O-Line most times.

Finally, Eli... this is his last rodeo. If for one last year he can tap into what made him a great QB back in the day (mind games, making other players better), Giants make the playoffs. But the Giants HAVE to get his successor this year. I hear a lto of chatter on Kyler Murray and it's too risky; that dude wants to play baseball and you can't waste a 1st round pick. Not a fan of Daniel Jones or Drew Lock either, take the guy with the strong arm, good size, and athletic background in Ohio State's Dwyane Haskins.

If the Giants were bad with an experienced veteran QB at the helm last year what do you expect from a rookie that is described as a raw talent. By the time Haskins is a serviceable QB Barkley will be in his 3rd or 4th season and Odell may not even be here anymore

Build the Oline this season and get your QB of the future next season when multiple franchise QBs are available

Haskins isnt even the prosepct that Jameis Winston was and look how that turned out ... it's throwing away a high 1st round pick to take a QB just because he is the best QB available in a bad QB Draft ...The Jets and Browns had been doing this for years ... The Browns lucked into Mayfiled the Jets will be darfting another QB in 3 years

I looked at his tape and I see at worst better passing Lamar Jackson who doesn't run as much. He made all the tough throws, he can read a defense, and he has the strong arm you want in December at Metlife. Besides, I don't expect him to start immediately; he'd sit and learn behind Eli for a year.

For all the talk about franchise QBs what do you see on his tape that he can't do? He made the zone throws, he challenged the ball downfield and he has the athleticism to escape the pocket. Jameis was a knucklehead, first and foremost and he may never realize his talent because of that. Haskins doesn't have that issue.

From what I have seen he looks a bit stiff and the way he leans over his front foot on throws is a  bit awkward.  He also seems to lock on one receiver on almost all of the throws in the link posted earlier and I didnt see him making many throws while moving around the pocket. Just seems like a regular guy ... nothing special.

QBs these days need to be able to make throws on the run. Even most of the successful pocket passers can throw while moving in the pocket.

Rodgers, Brees, Wilson, Mahomes, Watson and Mayfield ... I want someone is this mold. 

I'll take an Kyler Murray over chumps like Rosen, Darnold and Haskins. Also why draft someone to sit on the Bench when you can wait a year and target a guy who is ready to start immediately ...like Tua , Herbert, or Fromm. Maybe you have to trade up for them but worry about that later. They might even have to trade up to get Haskins which would be a complete disaster.

Giants, Jags, Broncos, Dolphins, Washington, all need QBs.  Only one QB has been taken in the first round in recent drafts where the team drafting them did not move up and that was last year with the Browns taking Baker Mayfield with the 1st pick so no one could jump ahead of them.  

I think  that some other team will trade ahead of the Giants unless they move up to make sure they can get Haskins.More talk of Giants trading Odell Beckham  >>>

... Jay Glazer, who writes in his latest piece at The Athletic, “I predict Odell Beckham Jr. gets traded this off-season.”

Glazer made clear that this is a prediction, not a report, but it underscores the fact that talk of a Beckham trade is not going away.

SF picks 2nd.  Boza universally is predicted to go first and rumors of Arizona taking Kyler Murray persist so Haskins 'apparently' will be available with San Francisco's pick at #2.

OBJ to 49ers trade remains a possibility  >>>

ODB is worth more than just moving up four spots in the draft IMHO so I think SF would also give up their 2nd round pick to even out thee deal.

The Giants could take Haskins and draft a WR in the 2nd round or maybe take the extra 2nd round pick and turn around and trade it for Antonio Brown.

The interest of SF for ODB and how the Giants have a need at QB and how other teams have a need .... The contract for ODB makes it easy to move.  SF is loaded on the D-Line and the 'best' player available at the #2 pick would be a D-Lineman making it easier for them to move out of that spot...  

Lots of time before the draft but this NY Giant ODB trade talk to SF by Jay Glazer who is the only guy I trust...

Personally, I think you are overestimating Odell's worth. Remember what Washington gave up to move from 6th to 2nd to get Robert Griffin: a 1st and 2nd in 2012 and a first in 2013. I don't think SF will be sending a 2nd to even out the deal. I think it might just be Odell to move up, or Odell and the Giants giving a 2nd to move up.

Even more recently, the Eagles gave up a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd essentially to move up from 8 to 2 to take Wentz. Remember that it is the Giants who are going to have to give more because they are the ones trying to move up to get their franchise QB. SF doesn't have to make a deal and they will still be fine.

 
It would be folly to trade ODB. Neither of the QBs are all that. They'd be throwing good money at a prayer, not address their glaring need at OL and taking away a weapon on O. Its foolish.

Why do so many people who call themselves professionals leave out the context of Glazer's prediction?

He was asked to make a "bold prediction."

If you ask a weatherman to predict the amount of snow that's going to fall in an upcoming storm, he looks at the data, sees there's a 75% chance it's going to be in the 2-4" range and he tells you 3".

If you ask him to make a "bold prediction" about the storm, he tells you 10".  Not impossible, but the numbers would suggest there's less than a 5% chance of that actually happening.

It seems to me that this situation was like the latter example but everyone in the media is treating it like the former.

 
I think the Giants should target RT in free agency. Either Trent Brown, Ja’Wuan James or Daryl Williams. Either one of those guys should help improve the OL. They also free the Giants up to take the best defensive player on the board at 6 (or take a QB if they like one but please don’t trade up).

They should also draft a developmental OT in the 2nd or 4th who should be groomed to take over for Solder at LT in a couple of years.

I didn't see the "bold prediction" part. I guess I'll need to put away my pitchforks now. If it is like all these stupid mock drafts where they have the giants trading up for the first 32 picks in the first round, then I get that it is another lame attempt at generating clicks. But in the stuff I was seeing the "bold predicition" stuff was left off and it was being presented like a scoop.

I do know that I disappointed that I haven't seen a mock draft for 2020's draft yet. They seem behind.

 
IMO, if ARI really does want Murray, the NYG should trade for Rosen.  They can probably get him for their 2nd round pick, which is close to being a 1st anyway, and maybe a little more.  If ARI is that down on a QB with Rosen's talent after 1 year of playing on a team with a supporting cast of an expansion team, they should be open to trading him and no way will they get a top 10 pick for him.  The NYG can let him sit behind Eli and learn for a year and then be ready to replace him next year.  Keep Beckham so Rosen, or whoever they draft at QB, has some talent surrounding him for the long term.  Plus, the dead money hit they would incur by trading Beckham is stupid at this point.  If they wanted to trade Beckham, they should have done it last year before they signed him to a long term deal.  In addition, as it has already been mentioned, why trade a young, proven elite player for an unknown, especially considering all of the other factors (cap hit and a young QB who will need some talent to throw to)? 

By doing this, the NYG could take BPA in the 1st (or trade down a little), and get an elite talent at QB with their 2nd.  Rosen can rebuild his confidence and learn from a stalwart like Eli for a year.  That would do him good and IMO he would then be ready to replace Eli for the long term.

Rosen for a 2nd

Take the best defensive player available at 6

Sign a RT in free agency

Where do I sign??

Rosen is a dud ... there are 3 or 4 QBS in this draft that are better than Rosen and  none of them are worth a high 1st round pick  except maybe Murray .

Wait until next year when the QBs in the draft are woth it

Haskins is being rated as possibly the best QB in a poor QB Draft  ... Like possibly being the tallest midget in the room 

 
Between 2004 and 2017 52 QBs drafted in the 1st 2 rounds. Here's How these 52 QBs have done

https://www.newsday.com/sports/football/nfl-draft-how-these-52-qbs-have-done-1.2829033

Take away 2004 (eli, ben and rivers) and 2005 (Rodgers) and you have 0 Superbowls and only a handful of QBs that you would even want starting for your team. Ryan Cam and Stafford 

Most of these guyes were rated higher or as high as Haskins is going to be.

Do not waste the pick on Haskins ... Vote NO on Haskins !!!!! Haskins is a never has been !!!!!!

You missed Joe Flacco who won a Super bowl.

So from 2004 to 2017, the only Super Bowl winning QB's who were not drafted in the first 2 rounds were Russell Wilson, Tom Brady, and Nick Foles. Brady is a true outlier, and Foles won with a team that reasonably could have won the Super Bowl with their injured first string QB who was a first round pick.

And you wouldn't want Luck, Goff, or Wentz starting for your Giants?

Drafting a QB high is not a guarantee of success, but you generally will get a more talented QB the higher you draft them. A lot of times talent leads to success.

To be fair to Rosen, there wasn't a single QB in the NFL put in a tougher situation. 

*Didn't get 1st team reps in camp

*Team had a new(and very bad) coach, so no veterans were around to teach the offense, because it was new to them too.

*80% of the week 1 starting o-line ended up on IR

*Lost Kirk to IR, who Rosen had the best rapport with, and was 1 of the only pass catchers showing a pulse at times

*Switched OC's during the season

I'd take Rosen over any QB in this draft other than Murray personally, and while he certainly had a poor rookie year, I don't think it should be fully held against him. Most veteran QB's would have struggled in that offense last year, they earned that #1 pick. I do love Kyler Murray, and if the Cards think as highly of him as I do, they should consider taking him, but if they do, 10+ teams should immediately call about Rosen, and the Giants are absolutely one of them, especially since then they can go BPA at #6.

Whew, that list is brutal. And it really is only a handful of QBs. I'd add Luck to your list of viable starters. But that list is totally scary. Just underscores my desire to see them strengthen the OLine

I accidentally left off Luck and Yes Flacco won a Superbowl but I wouldn't want him as my Starting QB and I certainly wouldn't use a high 1st round pick on him knowing what we know of him.

As far as Goff and Wentz ...to early to tell in my opinion. Goff was on a very good team and was a complete disaster in the Superbowl. And there is no way the Eagle would have won the SB with Wentz  ... they are a better team with Foles no question about it ... he proved that 2 years in a row and has a better winning % with the Eagles than Wentz.   

You could only Draft a talented QB high if there is a talented QB in the draft and as the stats prove ... there rarely is.

I agree on Murray ... And I agree Rosen had it tough but he will never be a very good QB and his attitude sux.

You're crazy if you'd give up a top 6 pick for Rosen ... he went 10th last year and his stock has dropped considerably

I didn't say anything about giving up a top-6 pick for Rosen. I said trading for him would allow the Giants to not spend the 6th pick on a QB. I was thinking he could be had(in the event the Cards go Murray) for a 2nd plus a little sugar.

I accidentally left off Luck and Yes Flacco won a Superbowl but I wouldn't want him as my Starting QB and I certainly wouldn't use a high 1st round pick on him knowing what we know of him.

As far as Goff and Wentz ...to early to tell in my opinion. Goff was on a very good team and was a complete disaster in the Superbowl. And there is no way the Eagle would have won the SB with Wentz  ... they are a better team with Foles no question about it ... he proved that 2 years in a row and has a better winning % with the Eagles than Wentz.   

You could only Draft a talented QB high if there is a talented QB in the draft and as the stats prove ... there rarely is.

Disagree about Wentz. There is no guarantee he would have won the Super Bowl in 2017, but he would have had a very good shot. When he got hurt in L.A. he was 11-2 and the leader for MVP consideration. His winning percentage actually was better than Foles in 2017 (11-2 vs. 5-1). In Wentz's 3 years he had a decent rookie year when he had virtually no weapons on offense other than Ertz, He had an MVP type season in his second year, and for all the grief he gets about last year, his QB rating was actually higher than 2017 despite an absolutely awful game in New Orleans when he threw 3 interceptions, 2 of which came in garbage time when the game was clearly over. Take away the New Orleans game and Wentz threw 21 TD's with 4 ints and a completion % close to 70%, all while possibly playing with a back injury part of the time.

But I understand your point that you don't think Haskins is talented enough to take with a high first round draft pick. I don't disagree with that. The problem for the Giants is they have so mishandled moving on from Eli over the last couple seasons that people are clamoring for them to take someone who will clearly be "The Guy" going forward. Whether it makes sense to take a QB high is almost irrelevant to some people.

 
Haskins looks fat and had the slowest QB time in the 40  ...  Slower than Eli Manning and slower than his his NFL comp and body double Jameis .

They also showed a comparison of last Years QBs 40s vs Haskins and Haskins was 5 yards behind the group

If your going to compete in the underwear Olympics at least come prepared. I don’t think guys need to train to become something they are not, but don’t be the worst in any category. To me that is a red flag especially for a top prospect at their position.

... first, Haskins slipped running the 40. Watch the whole QB group here. --> https://www.giants.com/news/watch-quarterbacks-throw-at-nfl-combine

His mobility in the pocket wasn't an issue in college as he showed he was able to work the pocket and move around enough to make throws consistently. As was said during the 'cast, you're not drafting Haskins to run zone reads and blow past people. I watched the guy throw and the ball jumps outta his hand. If the Giants want a pocket passer who displayed his talent at the highest level in big games, this is the pick assuming they get a QB in the 1st.

Daniel Jones is bigger, more athletic and his deep throws were by far the best of the bunch. Haskins has an arm but if you ask me he was putting way to much air under it ... they looked punts

It's mind-boggling. Dude walked for nothing and he could've at least fetched a 2nd or 3rd in trade... WTF? How do you effing trade for Ogletree (who sucks in coverage) and trade Collins, who is a box safety who causes havoc at the line?

I am not sure I understand either. Safety is a position you can build a defense around. Has Collins play been that bad?

He's a box safety whose coverage skills aren't really good due to aggressive angles that he takes. He's gotten flamed in games vs. good TEs (Ertz, Kittle, etc.) but the Giants secondary as a whole wasn't good last year.
