Giants believe in Eli Manning enough to not draft early quarterback
The New York Giants won't address quarterback early in the draft, ESPN's Jordan Raanan expects.
The Giants have talked about drafting a successor to veteran Eli Manning but it's unlikely Mitchell Trubisky or Deshaun Watson would fall to them with the 23rd pick. Head coach Ben McAdoo was present for Pat Mahomes' Pro Day as well, but he wouldn't be an option until at least the second round. Raanan does expect the Giants to add a quarterback in the draft, though it will probably happen on Day 2. Josh Dobbs, Jerod Evans and Nathan Peterman could be available in that range.
39 quarterbacks dropped back at least 100 times this year, and Manning's Passing Net Expected Points per drop back ranked 24th among them.
