00:00I'm gonna let Warren go here he's he prefaced this a little while ago that

00:07the Giants needed to do something to dress a long-term future QB and Warren

00:11the Giants only had six picks now one is gone with neighbors they do not have a

00:16lot of draft capital to try to maneuver to find that quarterback yeah they

00:20didn't like JJ McCarthy I don't blame them for not going with him they wanted

00:24Drake May they maybe couldn't have gotten up there to get him but here is

00:28the issue yes I love moving neighbors he looks absolutely awesome I can't wait to

00:32watch him play in the pros that being said if you look at Daniel Jones okay

00:37and you look at how when is the easiest time to pass the football it's on first

00:41down yet on first down passing Daniel Jones the last two years has ranked 20

00:4548 out of 48 quarterbacks if you go back and you look at okay well let's

00:49remove the sacks because obviously he was sacked a lot he still ranks 47 out

00:53of 48 quarterbacks what if you remove the sacks and all the pressures still

00:5747 out of 48 quarterbacks then you look at this offensive line the Giants have

01:02invested the second most draft capital over the last five years on their

01:06offensive line and yet they rank dead last in past protection rate in terms of

01:11the pressure that they allow on their opposing on their quarterbacks they

01:14don't have a quarterback they don't have a good offensive line you can bring on

01:17whatever skill positions that you want it's going to come down to the engine of

01:20the offense that's the quarterback operating behind this offensive line and

01:24until they do something to fix that they're really not going to be able to

01:28see much of an upside I worry about what they're going to be able to do this

01:31season when you look at their strength of schedule it's not an easy schedule

01:35they rank 20th in strength of schedule ease and there are only six and a half

01:39win total this year and I worry about the coaching staff if this team does not

01:44perform very well this season.
