Injury-Plagued Giants Predicted to Secure Top 2024 NFL Draft Pick, Raising Questions about Future of Daniel Jones

Daniel Jones's journey as the Giants quarterback hangs in balance as injury-laden season brings the team on course for the 2024 NFL draft's top pick, fueling discussions about choosing a fresh prospect over Jones's $160 million four-year deal.

  • The injury-ridden New York Giants are predicted to obtain the top 2024 NFL Draft pick, generating discussions on possibly replacing quarterback Daniel Jones, despite his $160 million four-year deal.
  • Jones, who suffered a torn ACL, is out for the season, with undrafted rookie free agent Tommy DeVito stepping in as the team's primary quarterback.
  • Amid a disappointing track record with an average of just 11.2 points per game and major losses, the Giants are expected to conclude this season with only one more victory. However, this could potentially secure a key asset for the team: the top draft pick.
  • Even with poor season performance, it is believed that coach Brian Daboll will stay for a third year, given his significant contribution to last season's playoff victory and the substantial draft capital that the Giants are expected to gain.
  • With the potential top draft pick in view, decision-makers must evaluate whether to keep Jones or reset with a top-tier quarterback prospect, such as USC's Caleb Williams or North Carolina's Drake Maye. The choice of a new quarterback could also save the Giants financially, as a rookie deal would cost significantly less than Jones' contract.
