This summer season, the largest story popping out of New York Giants coaching camp is whether or not or not Daniel Jones is the reply at quarterback.
It’s well-known by now that the membership tried to search out his potential successor on this yr’s NFL draft however failed. Don’t fret, Big followers, Subject Yates of ESPN says they gained’t fail subsequent yr.
In his newest 2025 mock draft, Yates predicts the Giants will lastly flip the web page on Jones and make an enormous play for a prime quarterback.
Yates sees the New England Patriots holding the highest decide, and since they chose Drake Maye this yr, will likely be in search of to deal the decide.
Enter the Giants, who provide a bundle to the Pats that features their first-rounder which, sadly, is No. 6 general once more.
With the highest choice within the draft, he Giants select Georgia quarterback Carson Beck.
Jones has no assured cash left on his contract previous this season, and if the Giants end with a document commensurate with the sixth decide, it’s secure to imagine they’d be within the quarterback market. Beck — my early QB1 for the category — is a silky-smooth pocket passer with glorious 6-foot-4 measurement and sufficient mobility to navigate inside and outdoors the pocket. He’s coming off a season wherein he completed third within the FBS in passing yards (3,941) and fourth in completion share (72.4%).
Jones could also be enjoying his remaining season at quarterback for the Giants no matter how properly he performs this season. His contract is about up for the Giants and him to half methods after 2024.
One other 6-11 season (or worse) will definitely set off the Giants to go all-in on a quarterback and eventually reset the path of the workforce.
