jetscanes331 Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Guy was the 5th or 6th QB on a lot of guys boards. There's absolutely 0 chance anyone would have taken him before the Giants come back around even in the second round, let alone with their other first round picks.

Nixhead Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 This is way worse than Hackenberg. Hack was a 2nd round pick. This was an early 1st round pick. They blew this one big time. Mac is not a good GM but Gettleman is horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetstream23 Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I do not hate the Giants. That makes me different than some of the folks around here. But they have really had an atrocious couple of years under Gettleman. I will try to be objective, but I believe both as a fan and objectively that Sam Darnold is going to be an excellent quarterback in this league. I don’t know if he will be a top three or five guy, but I expect him to be a top 10 quarterback in the NFL. Imagine now that you are the New York Giants and you have an aging Eli Manning, and you have now passed on Sam Darnold and Josh Allen in consecutive drafts. You have taken a great running back and backup QB. The New York Giants could have Sam Darnold, Josh Allen, Odell Beckham Jr. They have Saquon Barkley, Daniel Jones, Christian Wilkins. Their best player drafted is at a non-premier position. I LOVE Barkley. But he is not a quarterback, a pass rusher, a CB, or a LT. His fifth year option will approach sooner than the Giants expect and I believe that they will have wasted his first 2 to 3 years on the team. He will become a fortune to keep and they will have to overpay for their failings at other positions. This is why they traded up for a CB tonight. As they say, “this is not your daddy’s New York Giants.” Not sure what has happened to this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wish they drafted Wilkins, they got a pure NT @ 17 in Lawrence when they could have kept Snacks, even though he was expensive. Both our division rivals Miami and Buffalo picked up great DT's.

Jones hasn’t even signed a contract yet, but you’re already saying he’s a worse pick then Hack? Give me a frigging break. You, I, nor anyone else knows how this kid is going to turn out, but he is a 1st round talent, whether you can see it or not. That is how he was rated prior to the draft. BTW The Giants also got Lawrence, who played alongside and is probably as good as QW, and a top rated CB in the 1st round tonight along with Jones. I’d say they and Gettlemanhad a better night then the Jets and Macc did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most analysts I've read who are candid (i.e. not the NFL paid ones who can't be as forthright) believe it is one of the worst picks in history. Jones was kicked to the first round, purely because people were aware of the Giants interest. And Lawrence wasn't a teammate of Q Williams, Lawrence is Clemson and Williams is Alabama.

Villain The Foe Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 In terms of talent, I don't have a problem with the Jones pick at all. The problem is where he was drafted. The Giants could have picked him in the 2nd round or at the end of the 1st. They're going to get chewed out for the pick, but I think with a year to sit and learn he could become a very good QB.

I have friends who are giants fans so I pull for them if the jets are out (which they usually are). Fully agree that Gettleman is a disaster though. And it does suck that they’re probably going to waste Saquon’s entire prime. Saquon grew up a Jet fan and he might single-handedly end up rescuing the Jets’ franchise by freeing up Darnold for us at #3 overall last year (by getting the Giants to pick him).

BigRy56 Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 RIghtfully so - Gettleman is the league's worst GM and will be fired within the next couple of years. He's completely destroyed a solid franchise and it started when he committed to Eli with Barkley over Darnold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Giants could have picked him up in the 2nd round or even at the bottom of then1st with that 30th pick they had if they feared losing him. They level of reach on that pick by the Giants was spectacularly overkill, but Jones is a solid player if he sits for a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
