Giants QB Jones focusing on offense, not critics

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has heard the strong reaction to his selection and views it as his job to prove people right or wrong.

Jones was taken with the sixth overall pick in the NFL Draft. It has been widely debated whether the Giants could have waited until their second first-round pick, No. 17, to grab their eventual successor to Eli Manning.

The evaluations on the Duke quarterback were all over the board. Fans at the team's draft party the night of the selection booed.
