In a surprising turn of events, Josh Rosen reportedly doesn’t impress executives of the New York Giants.
The Giants hold the second overall pick, and lots of people have speculated that Josh Rosen was the perfect fit. Well, they might want to slow down because that’s apparently not even close to being true.
“If Darnold is available, they’re taking Darnold. They don’t like Rosen,”an NFL talent evaluator told NJ.com.
This actually isn’t overly surprising to me. Rosen’s own coach hasn’t exactly been overwhelmingly positive about his former star.
Rosen has all the talent in the world, and could easily end up being a superstar quarterback. However, he also gives off the vibe that he doesn’t really care. That’s hardly the attitude you want out of a franchise quarterback.
It’s now going to get very interesting if Darnold is off the board when the Giants pick. What do they do then? Trade the pick? Draft Josh Allen? There’s no easy answer. Looks like we’re getting all the drama we needed ahead of the draft!
