Giants Still Debating Whether to Draft Shedeur Sanders Despite QB Signings
If you thought the New York Giants were set at quarterback after signing Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston, and keeping Tommy DeVito around, think again. The team is reportedly still debating whether to draft Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders with the No. 3 pick in the upcoming NFL Draft.
With ownership expecting head coach Brian Daboll and GM Joe Schoen to balance winning now while also planning for the future, the pressure is on. Some in the Giants’ front office see Sanders as their franchise QB, while others aren’t convinced he’s the right choice, according to ESPN’s Jordan Raanan.
“We’re looking at Russell Wilson, who’s on his fourth team in five years, and Jameis Winston, who hasn’t been a regular starter in five years,” Raanan said. “Does that sound like they have their quarterback of the future?”
Even if Sanders isn’t the pick at No. 3, the Giants are expected to take a QB at some point in the draft. Some analysts argue that the gap between Sanders and second-tier quarterbacks like Jaxson Dart, Jalen Milroe, or Quinn Ewers isn’t that big. That means the team could opt to take a playmaker like Travis Hunter or Abdul Carter with their top pick and grab a QB later.
For now, the debate continues. Do the Giants go all-in on Sanders, or do they roll with Wilson and Winston for now and find their future QB down the road?
