What others are saying about the New York Giants’ signing of Russell Wilson

   

Russell Wilson joining the Giants sets off a ripple effect of positives and  negatives that could reshape the franchise's future

It has been a couple of days since the New York Giants signed Russell Wilson to be their starting quarterback in 2025. Wilson held a smooth introductory press conference on Wednesday.

Reaction to the move, and opinions on what the Giants will do about quarterback in the draft, have continued to pour in.

Daniel Jeremiah said the Giants went from vanilla (Daniel Jones) to French vanilla (Wilson), adding that the Giants should draft Shedeur Sanders if they love him.

Matt Miller of ESPN went ahead and mocked Sanders to the Giants.

Here is some other reaction.

Kyle Brandt of NFL Network derisively said he has seen this movie before, and it has gotten old.

Todd McShay thinks passing on Sanders and getting a quarterback later, perhaps even trading back into Round 1 for Jaxson Dart or Tyler Shough, is “what’s best for the organization.”

Isaiah Stanback thinks Wilson is a Giant “just in case” they don’t land the quarterback they want in the draft.

Colin Cowherd thinks the Giants know they aren’t going to be able to get Sanders in the draft.

Ross Tucker went the Daniel Jones insult route.

Emmanuel Acho says Travis Hunter or trading back is the right move for the Giants in the draft.
