New York Giants: The Highest Upside Quarterback in the 2019 NFL Draft

The New York Giants might have an iron man in Eli Manning, but they could have THE “Iron Man” in one of the 2019 NFL Draft’s most fascinating quarterbacks. Buffalo passer Tyree Jackson stands at a massive 6’7″ and 249 pounds.

Jackson ran a 4.59 40-yard-dash, comparable to the 6’0″ Trace McSorley, one of the draft’s most athletic prospects. The Buffalo product has an extremely high ceiling as he checks off all the boxes – arm talent, size, strength. His negatives, though, are more fundamentals than physical.

He tends to sprays the ball with minimal accuracy, failing to get into a rhythm from the pocket.
