The Giants will obviously deny this, but they heard all the rumors the Redskins were trading up for a QB and jumped the gun on QB Daniel Jones. The Redskins have been linked to every QB in the draft process, but Jones was definitely top 2 for them. The rumors were the coaches wanted Jones, and Dan Snyder/Bruce Allen wanted Dwayne Haskins. Washington was also rumored to be trying to jump the Giants for a QB. The smart money always goes with the player ownership wants, but the Giants didn’t want to take that risk.
NFL Draft Rumor: The Giants were afraid the Redskins were trading up so they picked Daniel Jones at #6
