New York Giants-Draft Dwayne Haskins
The Giants passed on taking a quarterback second overall last year, and if Sam Darnold turns into a star for the Jets theyāll hear about it for 10-15 years. This yearās draft class is not filled flush with top talent under center, but the Giants have a top-10 pick again (No. 6 overall) and a second chance to secure Eli Manningās successor.
Even with Manning expected to be back next season, the Giants are in position to take the first quarterback in this yearās draft and Haskins is widely considered that guy. The 2018 Heisman finalist led the country in passing yards (4,831) and passing touchdowns (50), while also completing 70 percent of his passes (fourth in the country) and averaging 9.1 yards per attempt (eighth in the country).
Thereās a chance multiple teams look to trade up ahead of the Giants to take Haskins, and Bleacher Reportās Matt Miller has backed up the notion from scouts he has talked to. If that happens general manager David Gettleman may look to trade down, acquire another pick and maybe still get a quarterback (Drew Lock? Kyler Murray? Daniel Jones?). But Haskins should be the top target, and a trade up to get him themselves shouldnāt be out of the question for the Giants.
