If there’s any single word that we can use to describe Daniel Jones as a quarterback, it’s “boring.” The New York Giants were never looking for a Lamar Jackson-style passer, as they seem to prefer pocket passers that resemble Eli Manning in almost every way.
From working with Manning’s long-time coach, David Cutcliffe, to training alongside the signal caller himself, Jones has put himself in Eli’s shoes at every conceivable intersection. He’s the perfect player to take over after the Giants’ veteran quarterback, and if he can replicate even half of his success, which would bring another Super Bowl to New York, the pick will have been worth it.
