There was a lingering question leading up to this past season. Did the New York Giants make the right selection by picking Saquon Barkley second overall in the draft?
Many thought they should’ve gone with QB Sam Darnold, who was taken third overall by the New York Jets. The Giants needed a plan at quarterback for the long-term, and many Big Blue fans preferred that they select Darnold out of USC.
Earlier this week on the “Rapsheet & Friends” podcast, Barkley spoke on that exact topic.
“I know everyone is saying a quarterback should have been taken before me,” Barkley said.
