Don't shoot the messenger, but I think it's starting to look more and more like Barkely or trade back....
I am unduly influenced by the last thing I read. In spite of that, I don't find Trent's words totally convincing. Just a week ago I was hoping Darnold would fall and Rosen would go no.1. But I find the last round of comments about Darnold to be compelling and damning.... His hand size, playing in a spread, the reads he doesn't make well, the slow windup and release, no. of fumbles, never taking a snap under center.
I don't think Rosen had a good combine and that is troubling no matter what the pundits say..But Darnold has taken hits below the waterline.
Now this from Tilfer....
", the Giants already their Eli Manning heir on the roster in the form of 2017 third-round pick Davis Webb".........
“I think they have their future quarterback Given enough time and given that they have a two-time Super Bowl champion to bridge a couple years to integrate that guy in.
“Giving Davis a year or two more to develop and learn the ropes and kind of establish himself in the locker room and play well in preseason, it helps your team. Now you don’t have to go overpay at the position, or draft and roll the dice.”
“I really like the combination of Eli and Davis Webb,” “I might be on an island there, but I think Eli still has a lot of good stuff in the tank. Especially considering so much of this game now is from the neck up. Eli has plenty of talent, plenty of juice. He just needs more answers to the test. He needs to be able to win the game intellectually as much as physically. I think this system will allow him to do that.”
Three very good options (provided we buy into this latest t round of maybe mis-direction) remain for our GMEN
1. Rosen (if he's there)
2. Barkley (see above)
3. Trade down.
Rightfully or wrongfully, I'm not sure Darnold remains an option. But as we're seeing it's all subject to change.....and only one voice really matters.
