I think there are three. The third is Jeanty.

I think he's a stud I don't think he's in the Barkley , Henry , territory 

 

30 carries a hundred yards against Penn State kind of dropped his stock slightly in my eyes .. like I don't think he's a guaranteed 10,000 yard rusher in the NFL 

 

And if you're taking a kid top ten you're definitely looking for years of production which is always scary with running backs

The Giants are taking Abdul Carter.  They would be idiots to trade out of that pick.  He’s the best edge prospect since Nick Bosa.

I take that point to an extent. But this top 10 isn't like many other top 10s. The opportunity cost of a stud running back isn't that high this time because there just aren't that many must have guys in this class. I think it is a decent draft with some good depth in spots. But it lacks top 10/15 types.

I could see Joe Schoen trading down slightly from Pick #3, maybe down the the 8 - 11 spot, get some nice draft capital to acquire more players and take Ashton Jeanty at the 8 - 11 spot. They're kicking themselves for letting Saquon walk last year. This gives them a generational talent at RB and more draft capital to move back up and take a rookie QB to develop if they desire.

This sounds logical, the Eagles will need a new RB when Saquon retires in 5 years.  Giants thinking they can win without a franchise QB is why they’ve sucked since Eli retired.  Keep drafting skill players with top 5 picks, it’s working great for you.

I hear you and I think he's super super talented 

 

He has a great build, and I like a shorter running back

There is ZERO percent chance of this happening.

 

Schoen would be chased out of town with *literal* pitchforks, if he drafted a RB after letting Saquan leave and win a SB at a rival.

Like if someone took him before Hunter, Carter or Ward (who isn't a better prospect but is a Quarterback) I think they'd deserve criticism. But before anyone else.... yea I'd struggle to crab it in this class.

I wouldn't do it personally. But do they believe that's what is preventing them making the Playoffs, a RB? Without a marked improvement, I imagine both Schoen and Daboll are gone. It's a big risk to take.

It would be so Giants to pass on QBs for RBs in the top 10 for the second time in 7 years and wonder why they suck so bad. 

That’s assuming the QB’s you’re referring to are worth a #3 overall selection. Watch what happens.

You understand I didn’t say they take Jeanty at #3, right? He can garner good draft capital by moving down 4 or 5 spots and take him at 8-10.

I don’t care if they took him with 30th pick.

Letting highly drafted RBs walk just to immediately use more high draft resources on replacing said RB is definitely something loser teams (Jets/Giants) would do.

 

Hint, hint

Correct which is why you never draft RBs high.

The title should be tweaked a little to include "hot take" or "draft day prediction" or the like so someone doesn't think the OP has inside information and this has really happened (will happen).

You should have seen the treatise @BringBackFergy did on Tyrod struggling years ago. The guy is one of the sharpest football minds we have.

Yeah. Ok. Is it draft day yet?? Ease up.

Did Tyrod take us to the playoffs after 18 years of stale chips? Yes.
