After a stellar 2022 NFL season, which resulted in a playoff berth and a playoff win over the Minnesota Vikings, the New York Giants fell back down to earth during the 2023 campaign, as the team failed to get anything going and were on the outside looking in on the postseason.
In the aftermath of an awful 2023 NFL season, the Giants appear to be ready to make some drastic changes in order to right the ship under head coach Brian Daboll, as bringing in a new potential franchise quarterback might be priority No. 1 this offseason.
With Daniel Jones proving that he’s not the long-term option they were hoping for, the team is still looking for Eli Manning’s successor, and they might be able to find him in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft.
According to Connor Hughes of SNY, the worst-kept secret in the league right now is the Giants’ intention to bring in a quarterback in the draft.
“The worst-kept secret of the NFL Combine might not just be the Giants’ desire to select a quarterback in the upcoming NFL Draft, but their willingness to trade up to get a quarterback in this year’s draft,” Hughes said.

Only four quarterbacks are making some noise ahead of the NFL Draft, with Caleb Williams of the University of Southern California expected to be the first quarterback off the board followed by some order of Drake Maye (North Carolina), Jayden Daniels (LSU), and J.J. McCarthy (Michigan).
The Giants might not have the opportunity to get one of these quarterbacks unless they are willing to make a massive trade offer to teams at the top of the first round, like the Chicago Bears, Washington Commanders, New England Patriots, and Arizona Cardinals.
