Which of the remaining below moves would you like to see the Giants make at QB?

What else (if anything) would you like to see the Giants do at the QB position for the remainder of this offseason?

I don't think the Titans will trade so if Sanders is there at 3 take him and hope. If he isn't, trade back, accumulate day 1 picks, build both lines into strengths and take a day 2 QB where value fits.

Just to respectfully clarify to all:

For this exercise, the presumption is that the team would be able to do each option listed.

The question here is what would you like to see them do, not what is your second choice because you think your first choice won't be possible.

Sorry Dave 😆 To clarify I voted draft Sanders as I do not want to trade away picks.

What kind of QB do we want?  That's the question to determine who we should get.  With Winston we have a big downfield aggressive throwing QB.  If that will be our identity, let's draft a rookie who has a big arm and has a downfield mindset as well.  That is not Sanders.  If Ward is available at 3 draft him but if not, do not give up draft capital and just draft one at 34 or round 3.  I say Milroe and use our staff to develop him.

Let's draft offense with more explosive playmakers and OL for our new QBs.  We can live without a 3 tech for a year as our D is good enough.

I think you summed this up well Joe.

I don't want any moves done out of desperation and without a firm view. While I am generally not a fan of trading up for a QB, I am not categorically opposed to doing it here if the Giants feel Cam Ward is headed for bona fide franchise QB, top 7 or 8 starter in the league status.

Of course, if the Giants were to feel that way, it would beg the question of why the Titans are not so convinced of that, which is the only way I think they'd be interested in moving down.

The most straightforward thing to me is to take the best non-QB available at 3 (provided Ward does not fall to 3), and then take a QB on day two that they feel has upside with the proper development. I would also be open to moving up from 34 in a trade in order to get Dart, were he to fall to a level that is obtainable for us. I don't see that happening though. I expect Dart to go in the top 17.

I have no interest in signing another washed up veteran at this point. One is enough.

We see it the same Jeff.  Let's build the offense and let the picks come to us in the Draft.  We will have options.

Dart at 3 seems rash..but he's not going to last very long. This happens every year with QBs..the Saints or the Jets might pounce. If they have a conviction on him...take him. I'd rather that then trade up any day.

I wan them to get BPA, not named Sanders, at 3 and trade to get Dart.

Fully on board with this approach. Chances are an outstanding defensive prospect at pick three will be there to choose from. After that, fix the Offensive and Defensive lines. If it's a choice between a development QB and a shot at Cam Skattebo, I'm picking the latter (sorry folks, he'll be worth it). Use the other third for the dev QB.

Day three picks will have plenty of choices since depth is a plenty in this draft. There's no reason why the Giants shouldn't come out of this draft a more talented team with depth; that's the entire purpose of this exercise.

I'm still holding out for the franchise QB in the 2026 draft which is why there is absolutely NO need to panic nor rush to get "the" QB this year. It's a bridge year and the team would be best served building overall talent and depth this season.

That's why I ultimately chose the "Other" category.

Peace!

I chose the 5th option.
trade back from three and wait, or BPA at three and wait.  I would be OK with Graham at 3 or another OL or DL later in the first.  NO sanders.  how far to trade back into rd. 1??? only if you really love Dart.  Maybe wait to see if he's there at 34, and IF NOT the guy I wanted us to take in round 2 at 34 [maybe even a bit later] all along will be there...Will Howard, QB, ohio state.

I'm in the "other" camp. I'm not sold on Ward or Sanders as the future of the team. They are good, but not in the category of someone like a Jayden Daniels, or Josh Allen...or even in the second tier (almost there) Joe Burrows or Justin Herbert. Maybe they can become in the same category with Tua Tagovailoa or Jameis Winston. But that's just me. I'm no expert on evaluating college QBs and divining their future in the NFL

If I had my "druthers", I'd draft two QBs in this year's draft. I would wait until the 2nd or 3rd round and take a player like Tyler Shough or Kyle McCord, and in a later round, an extremely talented, yet raw QB like Taylor Elgersma, and for the next year, let them battle it out to find out who has the fast processing brain power,
"moxie", and the unmeasurable "it" factor to take over the reins in the future. I have never been in the camp of shorter QBs who "scat first" whenever a play breaks down. Don't want to be a fan, always waiting for the season (or career) ending injury to my QB because of a blind or late hit while on the run. Big boys get away with it for a while, but the little guys not so much

I don't think for a second all our problems are over if we take Ward or Sanders. It's just not the year to take one of the top ranked QBs IMHO, who would probably be in the top 50 in a different year. That's just my dos centavos (which BTW, is worth considerably less than two U.S. cents)
The fact that Keith Richards has outlived Richard Simmons, sure makes me question this whole, "healthy eating and exercise" thing

Ward if he is there. He won't be. Sanders if he is there. Possibly. If neither is there, draft Slough or Milroe in round two. I don't give up capital for Dart and he won't last until the second round.

I chose wait until the 3rd round and draft a developmental QB.

Here are my reasons:
We need to improve the roster in many areas, so I would either like to see BPA in rounds one and two OR take one of those picks and trade down for more picks. If there is any way to turn #3 overall into someones' 1st this year and 1st next year...that is something you cannot pass up especially with the 26' QB crop.

3rd round option is developmental and almost assures a top 10 pick again in '26 which is wahy A) it would be great to do and B) why Schoen/Daboll won't do it. Nevertheless I would like to see it because if by some happenstance in turned out to be Milroe, he could become the steal of the draft.

What a comeback move that would be juxtaposed against Danny Dimes at 6 overall.

PLUS, an opportunity to fill some areas with top talent with all of the non QB picks.
From Simms to Eli (with an assist from Hoss) our Super Bowl Quarterbacks. Great defense and clutch QB performances...NY Giants Championship football.
