As I look at the Giants situation. I can't but help see the mega trade down potential for this team. I'm talking Patriot style 2-3 trades in the 1st round alone. Scouting Combine and draft season is months away but as of today my QB to target is Josh Allen from Wyoming. The media thus far has him pegged as the 3rd QB in the current pecking order. Awesome! I"d take him over Rosen, and he eeks past Darnold in my book. Allen has all physical features of a QB that you need. Throws beautifully on the run, very Rodgers like. A very important skill to have in today's NFL. Comes from a pro style offense, and has the personality to do well in NY.I wouldn't be surprised if his draft stock shoots up and takes over as the #2 or maybe #1 overall.
But selecting at #2 Allen would be plan B in my book!
What if Webb is THE guy?
Giants with the #2 overall draft pick are poised to cash in on all of those QB needy teams that are selecting behind the Giants. The very fact that the Giants themselves are considered to be in contention for one of this years up coming QB studs puts added pressure on teams that are selecting behind the Giants. If I"m the Giants I'm targeting Allen this coming draft and I'm leveraging Darnold, Rosen and Allen to get me some very lucrative trade offers. I'd reckon Allen and Darnold will be gone before the 8th pick is made so that gives the Giants a small window to make 2 blockbuster trades. If for some reason Allen is still there after they've traded down to lets say the 8th or 9th pick, then scoop him up then and see if Webb can be traded later that day.
Therefore Plan A could be Webb is your guy, UNLESS after a few quality trade downs and Allen is still there, you pull the trigger on Allen. Trade Webb.
As we know, Giants have a lot of holes, and those extra early day draft picks would be great, especially when you're cutting guys like JPP etc with their high 2018 salary hits. The rookie contracts would off set the over paid contracts of certain players currently on the roster after they are cut.
