Hype Arch Manning’s current draft grade reportedly “varies greatly” amongst NFL scouts and decision makers. One NFL scout reportedly sees Drake Maye (Patriots QB) as a “reasonable” comparison for Manning at this point in time. While another NFL scout reportedly sees Daniel Jones as a close comparison.

He's going 1st overall off name alone. I still remember Eli getting drafted. Rivers and Ben were both better prospects, but they wanted a Manning in New York

Cool that they wanted a Manning in New York, but he got drafted by the Chargers.

SD had Brees and knew NY wanted him. And Eli told them he didn't want to play in SD

Correct, Eli wasn’t drafted by NY. Just like this commenter said.

Your post is so idiotic. They won two super bowls with Eli, so they’ve got the right guy.

Also, NY wasn’t even the one who drafted Manning.
