Lamar Jackson the wild-card in 2018 NFL Draft quarterback class

This offseason the New York Giants are faced with a potentially franchise-defining decision.

As has been well established, they hold the second-overall selection in the 2018 NFL Draft, and this year features a quarterback class that is being compared to the 2012 class, and even the historic 2004 and 1983 classes.

With Eli Manning nearing the end of his career, this might be the Giants’ best chance to establish their plan of succession for the quarterback position. Assuming they don’t decide that 2017 third-rounder Davis Webb [Deep Dive] is that guy, 2018 prospects Mason Rudolph [Deep Dive], Josh Allen [Deep Dive], Lamar Jackson, Baker Mayfield, Josh Rosen, and Sam Darnold could all be in consideration by the Giants.
