The #6 overall pick translates to roughly 2 late 1st round picks (mid 20s) and 2 second round picks. Is there any TE that you would ever have traded 2 late first rd picks and 2 second round picks for? That’s the value to keep in mind when deciding on who to draft with these high picks. In my mind, that immediately crosses quite a few positions off the board, one of which is TE. That's completely made up and nonsense. That logic crosses every position other than QB off the list unless you're a stacked team, in which case you're not picking in the top of the draft.

Absolutely. If the Giants go and get a top G/T and a WR and vet QB in Free Agency somehow, and cut Waller, Bowers has to be a legit option IMO. This is the BEST TE prospect Ive ever seen to be honest. I dont know if that will translate, but I would like to think it does with a system that loves TEs getting wide open. He is leaps and bounds better a prospect IMO than Pitts, who went #4 overall. He definitely has the potential of a Kelce or Gronk. The #6 overall pick translates to roughly 2 late 1st round picks (mid 20s) and 2 second round picks.

In my mind, that immediately crosses quite a few positions off the board, one of which is TE. That would mean you would get 10 QBs drafted with the first 10 picks. You take talent when it's there. Don't force a QB or you end up with another Daniel Jones.

I was thinking, who were the greatest NFL players to ever play, but only play for the team they were drafted by? To me that shows not only greatness, but Loyalty. Ill start with a few obvious Giants in Eli Manning (2004-2019), Michael Strahan (1993-2007), Tiki Barber (1997-2006) and Amani Toomer (1996-2008) (Crazy they all played together too)... Barry Sanders RB Detroit 1989-98 Arguably the greatest RB in history, just like Barber, ended his career earlier than most thought he should have. Jim Brown, Mike Singletary, Ray Lewis, Roger Staubach, John Elway, Dan Fouts, Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin, Joe Greene, Larry Fitzgerald, and Dan Marino to name a few.

Don't force a QB or you end up with another Daniel Jones. There’s some WRs, edge rushers, and LTs that have roughly been worth that. Basically, most teams are inefficiently using their resources. It’s an opportunity for us to increase our chances of building a good team.

Where does Aaron Donald belong on this list? One of the greatest defensive player that I have ever seen.

Where does Aaron Donald belong on this list? One of the greatest defensive player that I have ever seen. He belongs wherever the hell he wants.. He’s one of the very few Rams that doesn’t have to look up to legendary greats, Merlin Olsen and Jack Youngblood. He’s at eye level with them and any other player who played the position.
