Philosoraptor’s Corner: Finding a franchise quarterback in the Spread Option era

For the first time since I have been studying the draft, I have to seriously study the quarterback class. In previous years I’ve educated myself about them, but mostly for the purposes of figuring out where they fit in with the rest of the class and how they could effect the rest of the draft.

For the New York Giants, having to worry about the quarterback position was something that happened to other teams.

But the march of time is inexorable, and eventually all things must come to an end, including Eli Manning’s career. We don’t know how much time he has left, but a fairly practical timeline would have him retiring when his current deal expires after the 2019 season.
