Yeah, seemed like a great pick. Love that he can catch the ball to. Him and Tracy should make a solid 1-2 backfield.

That Offensive Line has GOTTA get better though.

LOL, Browns couldn't pass him up in the 5th round. They now have 5 QB's on the roster, after taking 2 QB's in this draft. Question is, are ANY of them any good.

Sanders might still have a chance to start opening day on this team.

Still wondering why the Browns took Gabriel but it's the Browns. Going to be a random group of QB's competing for the starting job between Pickett, Flacco, Gabriel and Sanders since Watson is out for the year probably.

I thought the Steelers would've taken Sanders given they are entering the season with Mason Rudolph, Skylar Thompson and the hopes of Aaron Rodgers signing.

At some point it becomes worth the headache. He clearly wasn’t their target since they took Gabriel in the 3rd, but if you can a 1st/2nd round talent for 5th round money when the QB room is already the island of misfit toys, then why not?

Kyle McCord will be one of the future top QB’s. Cant wait to see him play for the Eagles!

Other places I posted I had calmed down a little and ended with "Now about that O-Line..."

This whole draft has been ask and you shall receive for Giants fan. Next pick a bruising guard who excels in the run block especially. Getting the running game going can actually help a mediocre line when it comes time to pass. That little hesitation the pass rushers have due to the run can be all it takes to get the pass away.

Yeah, hard to be upset at this draft. I think they learned a lot of lessons from the past, in tipping their hand too early. I think Giants fans are still traumatized from the Gettleman years and the complete lack of strategy he went into with every draft.

Hopefully it pays off and Carter is at least half the player everybody seems to think he is, Dart turns into at least an average starting QB and someday we can get another full season out of Andrew Thomas.

I have been an optimist for way too long when it comes to the Giants, but I can see them having an outside chance at a wild card berth next year.

Well that was an interesting draft, Thursday probably did a 10+ rating. Very happy with the Pats and addressing the needs particularly on offense. Have a feeling Henderson the RB from O St will be a real surprise and help Maye.
