Final Word From 3-Round Mock Draft

I know, I know. Giants fans will want a sexy pick at quarterback when they click a mock draft, but this avenue presents the best of both worlds. Daniel Jones isn’t the long-term answer, but should the team really trot out a rookie signal-caller behind a porous offensive line with next to no weapons? That would only set the franchise back even more.

Stack the roster up and see what Jones can do behind a healthy line with more passing game reinforcements. If he fails to regain his 2022 form, then the depth chart is in a much better place to welcome the next franchise quarterback in New York. The surprising success in Year 1 might have set the fan base up with unrealistic expectations. This roster still needs plenty of work.
