They were pretty open and honest about the fact they were taking BPA available last year despite needing a QB then too. I think their GM and coach honestly believe that Manning has something left. I would not be surprised at all if they took a pass rusher. I do think they still believe in Eli for this year but want to redshirt someone behind him. Haskins needs a redshirt year imo as he has only started one season. I believe they also said (or leaked) around the time of the trade that they didn’t want obj around a young QB. I don’t see them waiting yet another year to take a QB. And while they may ultimately choose another one, remarking they’ve done no work on Haskins is just not believable. Any team in the market for a Qb is doing copious amounts of work on all of them, especially where they draft. So it just seems way too strong of a denial. All that said, Gettleman is a wild card so who knows. When he speaks directly to the media I think he’s pretty candid and straightforward. The leaks coming from the organization could be a different story. I would say though it makes sense to continue to pump up Eli publically if they want teams to believe they aren’t taking Haskins at 6. 2

ALF Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Pat Shurmur is the QB guru , I would not underestimate the Giants.

That being said I think Haskins doesn't get passed on by Washington if he makes it that far. I completely agree, and think that they will battle it out with Miami.

BuffaloRebound Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Can’t see the Giants trying to tank with Eli on roster. If that was the plan, I’m sure Eli would’ve retired. Doesn’t mean they won’t stink but probably not #1 pick overall stink. Trading for Rosen makes so much sense for them. They can probably get him for pick 37 and it doesn’t preclude them from taking a QB next year.
Mr. WEO Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Maybe they will draft a hard hitting box safety at 6....

They can probably get him for pick 37 and it doesn’t preclude them from taking a QB next year. I too believe they are a good landing spot for Rosen. Eli plays atleast one more year with Rosen on the roster backing him up, they use #6 to get another good player to help rebuild the roster and if they can get Rosen without using the #17 pick, have a second 1st to use on another player to help the rebuild. I dont see a trade of Rosen goin down until the draft though. I know everyone thinks Gettlemen and the Giants are dumb for trading OBJ, but Gettleman comes from the same place as the 'Carolina North' Buffalo golden boys Beane and McDermott who both like a good running game, and dont believe they need a true #1 WR on the roster. They have some decent WRs on the roster right now, with one of the leagues top RBs. They could go oline or deline with the #6, or get a very good WR there which will really help Rosen or a drafted QB. 2 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: Maybe they saw him at the restaurant by himself and asked him to join them because they felt bad?

Augie Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 They should try to get another 10-15 years out of Eli. Wouldn’t be right to hurt anyone’s feelings. 1

auburnbillsbacker Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 They are either interested in Rosen or bluffing. Their GM has never completed a trade involving a 1st round pick. He better be prepared to trade up this year.

stony Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 Poor Saquon. 352 touches in his rookie season. Probably close to 400 the next two years.
Johnny Hammersticks Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 I wonder if they’re hoping Drew Lock Falls to them in the 2nd, or maybe trade back into the 1st for him?
