Welcome back. It's the Big Blue Banter. New York Giants football podcast. I'm Dan Schneier. Join as always my co-host, Nick Vallado. And today we're here to talk a little bit about some Giants pre-draft buzz, Nick, because yesterday I thought was a very funny, interesting day from a buzz standpoint with the Giants. And this is Wednesday when we're recording. I think the podcast will be out today. We're speaking about Tuesday yesterday. So Tuesday, you know, Nick, it was April 9th, a good two and a

halfish weeks, two weeks and two days before the draft. For some reason, the Giants General

Manager, there was no set press conference, there was no mandate by the NFL that you have to

speak right now to reporters, the big name reporters, by the way, you know, a national NFL reporter who's going to report this and everyone's going to see this. You didn't see other GMs talking, Nick, but for some odd reason, Joe Shane, the Giants DM, decided to talk to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated.com. And he told him, we don't, and for some reason he's giving away, and we'll talk about the reasons why we think the reasons why he's doing and for some reason he's giving away and we'll talk about the reasons

why we think the reasons why he's doing this after but he's giving away information about the giants

and their draft supposed information let's put it the air quotes on information and joe Shane tells

Albert Breer we don't want to be up here again we don't want to be picking in the top 10

Shane told Albert Breer of s.com he said we have multiple needs. We are going into year three. People assume we're going

quarterback, but we have other needs. If the quarter, now listen to this, Nick, he says point

blank. If the quarterbacks go one through four, then we're getting the second best position player,

not quarterback, at six. Okay. So he's literally just giving away the blueprint, apparently. He says that player really helped us. Even last year, our quarterback coach was at the CJ Strah workout, spent a lot of time with Levis and Anthony Richardson. We spend a lot of time with those guys, and it's not just for right now. It's for when they become free agents. Brian Burns,

we spent a lot of time with him in the trap process. So we feel comfortable making a trade for that

guy. Drew Locke. Same thing. Sam Darnold. We spent a lot of time with him because that was in the

Josh Allen draft. So what are your react? What's your reaction first to what Joe Shane said?

Us going quarterback?

No, of course not.

We would never go quarterback.

We signed Drew Locke, everybody.

We had Daniel Jones.

Tommy Cutlets.

You guys remember Tommy Cutlets?
