Giants' plan for No. 3 pick is 'worst kept secret' in NFL according to draft analyst

   
Yeah uh I've totally been hearing that too, definitely.

QBs: they're so in right now.

The Giants' dedication to approaching the QB room like a minor league outfield system – you can never have too much depth – has been one of the more ... interesting? ... storylines of the NFL offseason.

You'd think that signing Jameis Winston, and then Russell Wilson, would all-but-eliminate them from making another high profile QB move this offseason. That's your mistake, though, because the New York Giants won't stop until they have three team's worth of starting-caliber QBs on the roster; that's what a few Tommy DeVito starts does to a team.

Plus, the QB of the future obviously isn't on the roster right now. And even with Wilson/Winston, that could still change this April, according to one of ESPN's draft analysts. In a recent 'draft buzz' style piece that dropped over the weekend, ESPN's Matt Miller flashes a bit of reporting in an answer about what he's hearing the Giants' plan for the number three pick may be.

It sure sounds like the Giants are still going to take Shedeur Sanders in next month's draft

"I'm hearing quarterback, even after signing Russell Wilson to a one-year deal," he said. "A scout told me, 'New York loving Shedeur is the worst-kept secret in the league right now.' According to that scout, the Giants had a presence at every Colorado home game this season. The Wilson and Jameis Winston deals shouldn't prevent the Giants from drafting a quarterback at No. 3 if one of the top two passers is available. But should Ward and Sanders both be off the board, the Giants will be a premier destination for Colorado's Travis Hunter, given the team's needs at wide receiver and cornerback."

Outside of just how weird that QB room would be, I don't hate it at all. Wilson probably has some good football left in him, but it's certainly not 2-3 year's worth. Winston is Winston. Getting a potential franchise QB in there and letting him learn from those two isn't by any means a bad idea – and if he, you know, just happens to steal the QB1 job in camp, all the better. For all the moves the Giants have made this offseason, you could argue that they haven't really *addressed* their QB problem as much as they've patched it up. Still being an open to, and taking, a QB despite those moves would be a good moment for a front office that desperately needs one.
