Giants believe they can become rags-to-riches story with right young quarterback pick
NY Post
So, if the Giants take a quarterback up high in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, does that provide a franchise reset of sorts? Does it recalibrate the urgency for general manager Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll to right the ship and produce a winning season, after too much losing in 2023 and even more this season?
After all, a rookie quarterback, even one who is highly touted, usually needs a grace period to acclimate to the NFL. Most often, there are early struggles, for the player and the team, sometimes lasting a few weeks, sometimes multiple months, and it is not uncommon for the entire first season to evolve into a learning experience, taking lumps now for a better tomorrow.
The Giants would need an improbable glut of winning in the next seven games to come close to achieving last year’s lousy 6-11 record, given they are 2-8 heading out of a bye week that felt like a stay of execution on a season destined for the dumps. Adding Shedeur Sanders or Cam Ward or Jalen Milroe could be a long-term solution but perhaps not an immediate salve to all the wounds that have been inflicted in a losing streak that is alive and unwell at five games and counting.
Or maybe, if it is the right guy, the Giants can rise up and look like a competent team right away.
