According to Ralph Vacchiano of FOX Sports, the Giants could consider trading up from sixth overall in the upcoming draft to make sure they can take North Carolina’s Drake Maye as their hopeful quarterback of the future.
That scenario isn’t one that excites Boomer.
“I’m not totally overwhelmed by him,” Boomer said. “I don’t feel like he jumps off the page to me. Maybe they’ve met him and liked him and feel like he’s gonna be one of those guys like J.J. McCarthy where it’s all football all the time.
“This also could be a smokescreen to get Washington to take Drake Maye.”
Is the Giants’ reported interest in Maye real, or is it a strategic leak to impact other team’s draft boards? We’ll find out later this month when Big Blue is on the clock.
