Saquon is a real good pick. Eli isn't going to have to do as much he can just hand it off to Saquon 25 times a game and toss up bombs every so often to Beckham

And the opposition will stack the box because Eli can't beat you anymore.

It made no sense to draft a QB unless the Giants were moving on from Eli entirely, as in out of the organization. The notion of heir apparent QB's is overblown and antiquated.

So after all the talk about the Jets moving up and possibly getting the third best QB, they now have a shot at the consensus top QB.

Giants gonna regret this when Eli is gone in a couple years.
Drafting a RB this high is odd in this era. Barkley is already now one of the highest paid RBs in football. With cap space so precious, he enters the league as an expensive player at his position. And this is a position where guys never live up to a second contract.

Gettleman is 67 years old. Don't think he cares about 5 years from now and the 2nd contract...

That’s true. Wentz and Goff as the top 2 picks signed 4 year deals worth $29 million.

I believe freeman has the highest per year average at $8 mill and change.

But, pay for the results I guess.
