Were the New York Giants an all-out NFL Draft miss?

After months of speculation, the New York Giants have finally found their quarterback of the future in Daniel Jones from Duke. Jones was a highly scrutinized selection. It’s not every day that you see a quarterback go in the first-round, and most everyone isn’t a fan of the pick.

Jones already has connections to Eli Manning because of Duke coach David Cutcliffe, who mentored both Eli and Peyton Manning in college. Jones has a similar build and personality to Eli Manning. He’s a quiet, confident guy who seems not to be bothered by the intense media scrutiny.
