Six-Time Pro Bowler Philadelphia Eagles Great Says He wants To Play For New York Giants.
The New York Giants only have seven draft picks to fill whatever needs they don’t fill in free agency, but one glaring need they might just be willing to trade up for in the first round is quarterback.
So believes NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah, who, on a conference call with reporters Thursday, said the lack of excitement over the 2025 quarterbacks class could prompt any quarterback-needy team to make a move for its franchise signal-caller this year.
I haven’t had a chance to watch many of those guys, but there doesn’t seem to be as much excitement at this point in the process about next year’s guys,” Jeremiah said when asked specifically about the odds of the Giants moving up from No. 6 to get one of the top guys.
“I think that could lead to some action, spur some action for these teams to try and either take one where they are and maybe even be aggressive and go up and get one.”
If the Giants do make a move, it’s unlikely to be to No. 1 overall or even to No. 2, the two spots currently held by the Chicago Bears and Washington Commanders, both quarterback-needy teams. But the third spot, held by the New England Patriots, could be in play if reports of the Patriots planning to go the free agency route to find their quarterback to replace Mac Jones comes to fruition.
