With a 1-7 record, the Giants are understandably looking towards the future. Part of that vision could include a new young quarterback. Several weeks ago, owner John Mara told his front office to start looking closely at the top college quarterbacks in the 2018 draft, sources tell ESPN.com’s Jordan Raanan. 
The directive, in part, came because Odell Beckham Jr. had suffered a broken ankle. Although it was early in the season, Mara had a feeling that the Giants might end up picking high in the draft as a result. Right now, it looks like the 1-7 Giants are going to be right at the top, along with the winless Niners and Browns.
The Giants could target UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen after sending vice president of player evaluation Marc Ross to scout him in recent weeks. Ross runs the Giants’ draft, so it’s notable that he was the one to take a close look at Rosen in the fall.
Other top names available include USC’s Sam Darnold and Wyoming’s Josh Allen. Louisville’s Lamar Jackson and Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield, two non-traditional QBs, are also available.
Lamar Jackson I think is the best move. I understand the hype from Rosen and Darnold but notice how mobile QBs have been taking over the league recently. It just adds another dynamic to the offense. Rosen or Jackson would fit the style of offense they like to run, but look what people said about Watson. Same kinda thing s people say about Jackson.
I feel that Jackson is more of a running QB, or at least more prone to scrambling, than Watson. Obviously having a QB who can move in the pocket and escape pressure is huge, but there’s a difference between just being a mobile QB and a QB whose first instinct is to run. The latter types tend not to last long. Honestly I think the main QBs in this class (Darnold, Rosen, Allen, Jackson, and Mayfield) can all be pretty good. Each has their own issues that need to be worked out but all five of them seem to be guys who can move around in the pocket and make most, if not all, of the types of throws you need from a starter-caliber QB.
You want Jackson he’ll be around awhile.
Quarterback of the future would be great but with no offensive line to protect him it’s pointless first 3 picks should be focused there
The O-line class is a lot better in this year’s coming draft than last year’s. You could snag a top QB and still get a good lineman in the early 2nd Rd.
