who knows. I'd be very surprised though, Manning is 37 and they had such a bad season that they unexpectedly got into a position to draft a franchise QB without giving up any assets. Do you give that up for a running back? I certainly wouldn't. I'd take Rosen in a heartbeat and have him sit a year behind Eli. People take a look at this year's playoffs and say "See? You don't necessarily need a franchise QB!". But at the same time, it's quite clear that you don't need an elite RB either.
I'd be really shocked if Darnold and Rosen didn't go at 1 and 2. If it's not the Giants picking a QB at 2, they might very well find a willing trade partner in a team like Buffalo or Denver. They could trade down, get an extra asset or two and still draft a guy like Quentin Nelson.
