However, as the director of college scouting for a front office which built a pair of Super Bowl championships, he makes fairly regular appearances in the media. His latest came Tuesday evening on the NFL Network Men Dexter Lawrence Jersey , and unsurprisingly, he was asked about the direction of the New York Giants. Ross’ assessment of the state of the Giants and the direction the franchise seems to be headed in was somewhat less than “glowing.” Ross described Manning’s current level of play as “below average, let’s just say.” He also added that the Los Angeles Chargers are in a better position to execute the “Kansas City model” of quarterback transition because Philip Rivers is still playing well. Not, however, that Ross believes the Giants will invest in a quarterback this year anyway. Ross added, “I think they’ll push the quarterback back another year. We saw the pass rushing stat Youth Dexter Lawrence Jersey , I think they’ll probably go pass rusher here and bank it all in on Eli. They traded for a guard [Kevin Zeitler], so that gives them the security to say that they built a wall for this guy and now he’s going to play and perform. I would think pass rusher now, as opposed to a quarterback. It will make a lot of people upset and some people happy.”Ross is right that the Giants had one of the worst pass rushes in the NFL last year and proceeded to trade away their only reliable pass rusher in Olivier Vernon. Big Blue View has heard that the Giants are very high on Montez Sweat, and with their need for a pass rush and his incredible Combine performance, he could well be the front-runner for their selection at sixth overall.Ross’ assessment that the Giants feel comfortable in remaining with Eli after trading for Zeitler (and potentially adding another offensive lineman in the coming free agency) is in line with comments from both Gettleman and Pat Shurmur. It should be noted that Manning was “below average” (as Ross put it), even when unpressured in 2018. But Ross added that there could be another level to Gettleman’s reluctance to draft a successor for Manning.
