One thing I need to keep reminding myself is I only have access to what everyone else has access too. Mock drafts, media boards and where they have all these guys ranked. Paoli, Kirwan and RIP Gil Brandt always made it clear each teams board is different and we are not even close.
So here we go. Draft is 7 days away starting tomorrow morning and the countdown begins. This has become arguably bigger then the Super Bowl
I have heard some say Maye will fall because he has bust potential. I have heard and agree Penix is the best passer in the group. Others say McCarthy because he just does everything right except we have not seen it in big numbers. I have even hear Daniels is the better prospect than Williams. Even Chris Simms likes Bo Nix over a lot of these guys. So who is right
Some of us want a WR. A select few like the TE. Some still want OT. Let the games begin
I have been on record talking about Penix. And yes I would be thrilled if he is a Giants. Will it happen. Probably not.
The latest I heard is teams hate trading back further than being able to get a player they love. So is The Vikings, Broncos, Raider out of the trade conversation at 4 or 5? Will the next 2 make it to round 2? Will the Giants bid against themselves
Personally I hate the trade up concept to get to 4 but it’s a reality that may happen.
Trading back I’m ok with if they can come out of this draft with any of the top 6 QBs and a WR. Will that happen. Again. I doubt it. What I fear year after year is usually what comes into play
I do believe somehow a team gets ahead of the Giants and they take McCarthy. The Giants land the Stud LSU WR Nabers but by the time late round 1 is here. The QBs are gone. Us it a mistake to reach for a QB at 6. Probably. Will Nabers help elevate the Giants to a winning record. Probably not. So what is the right thing to do? What if they miss on a QB and Jones gets hurt again? What if Jones stays healthy and struggles. We turn to lock? Probably not the answer either.
So. What do the Giants do
In my perfect little world. The Cardinals stay and take Harrison. The Chargers stay and take Nabers. The Giants and Vikings swap 6 and 11 and 23 at at 11 the Giants grab Penix and 23 The other stud WR Brian Thomas and they still have there 2nd round pick to add a swing tackle, Guard, RB, Safety or even another pass rusher. Will that happen. Football gods please. But probably not
In reality the Giants will probably draft Odunze and no trades happen until 7 or 8. That’s ok too.
The bottom line is I’m tired of watching Giants losing football. I can care less if Lock, Jones, DeVito or any QB the Giants may end up with wins for us. I just want to win
