Rofl, Jake Plummer? That is a new one.

No elite QBs go to North Dakota state. Name me one very good QB since 1980 who has gone to a less renoune division 1 school than that. The closest thing to it is Cutler and he’s worse than Wentz

That is such a dumb way to look it. McNair went to Alcorn state. Gannon went to Delaware.

Taking a QB just because you need one is how the Browns got where they are. They didn't think anyone was a sure thing, so they took the best player in the draft.
Thing is, this was a QB-rich draft. But the Giants wanted to fool themselves thinking that Eli was still a championship caliber QB... behind a terrible OL. 5 years from now the Giants will still likely be a mediocre team with an elite RB and no QB. They'll be kicking themselves in the ass for not taking Darnold.

I thought it was okay. He tried to disguise it by making it appear he went for the ball but he really didn’t

He was looking back at the ball though, if you're looking back a bump is allowed. He didn't put his hands on him or anything.

not that it matters, this game is ovah

Darnold has looked bad so far. That said it’s too early to judge any of them. I felt Rosen was the best o e

front end of the Giants defense is really pretty stout with their pressure and staying in their lanes against the run

Mayfield is going to be the only real franchise QB from there so who cares media overhyped them. Watson/Mahomes are much better than all of them.

Or they'll look like geniuses because they waited a year and got their guy in the next draft. They got a sure thing, and the sure thing looks generational so far.

Not to mention a strong running game is a young QB's best friend.
