The New York Giants might be dealing with the ‘excellent storm’ this spring with regards to shifting gears at quarterback.
They maintain the sixth general choice within the 2024 NFL draft — which consists of a number of potential franchise quarterbacks. Their very own starter, Daniel Jones, is coming off a season that noticed him re-injure his neck and endure a season-ending ACL tear, and they should improve their quarterback room from high to backside.
ESPN’s Jordan Raanan believes the Giants will ‘pull the set off’ on a quarterback within the draft if the proper one — and the proper scenario — is on the market to them.

“I’ve been informed by a number of sources that the Giants, if the scenario presents itself accurately, could be a minimum of severely prepared to take a look at the quarterback place,” Raanan mentioned.
Many consultants imagine that solely three quarterbacks are worthy of being taken with a top-6 decide: USC’s Caleb Williams, Drake Maye of North Carolina, and LSU’s Jayden Daniels.
If a kind of gamers remains to be on the board, the Giants could be silly to not both a) take the participant themselves or b) deal the decide for a bundle of gamers and draft capital.
Taking a non-quarterback or not maximizing the decide’s worth could be the worst factor the Giants might do with this choice.
The Giants aren’t one or two gamers away from rivalry. They’re a 6-11 crew that owns the worst document within the NFC over the previous decade and are nonetheless in free fall.
The crew obtained off to a roaring begin in 2022 beneath head coach Brian Daboll, profitable seven of their first 9 video games. However the actuality is, the Giants have struggled since, posting a document of 9-17-1 (together with playoffs).
The long run can’t get right here quick sufficient for Big followers. They’ve seen sufficient of Daniel Jones — who the Giants can sever ties with after this season — and it’s time to maneuver on.
Common supervisor Joe Schoen and Daboll probably don’t wish to be tied to Jones any longer. He has not proven that he can lead the crew to victory persistently and has not been in a position to beat the Giants’ two important NFC East rivals — Dallas and Philadelphia. Jones is 3-10 in his begins versus these two groups in his profession.
By choosing a kind of stud quarterbacks on this draft resets each Schoen and Daboll’s clock and the path of the franchise in a single fell swoop.
