NFL: Giants-GM praises Eli – Will no QB be punished?

Dave Gettleman, the new Managing Director of New York Giants, commented on the quarterback question and the impending draft of the franchise. He could well imagine Eli Manning’s whereabouts. A quarterback is therefore not necessarily drafted.

“I watched Manning’s tape because the quarterback is the team’s most important position,” said Gettleman, referring to Eli’s 434-yard performance against the Eagles at the end of the season. That was no illusion,”says the new managing director on the Giants homepage.

Many expect the Giants to pick up a quarterback with the second pick in the upcoming draft to take Manning’s throne. Gettleman doesn’t make such a prediction:”We’ll pick the best available player with the second pick,”Gettleman continues.”If you forcefully choose a player just to get a quarterback and it doesn’t live up to expectations, you’ll lose five years”.

Also about Odell Beckham Jr. Gettleman lost a few words. The superstar Wideout will be playing in his rookie contract last year next season,”I had a great conversation with him,”says Gettleman.”We have a great player and I look forward to working with him.”
