Giants general manager discusses 'taking swings' for quarterback as Matthew Stafford rumors heat up

Matt Hasselbeck joins Colin Cowherd to discuss whether the Los Angeles Rams should move on from Matthew Stafford and pursue Aaron Rodgers.

The Giants were in unfamiliar territory during the 2024 season, mixing and matching their quarterbacks week by week late in the year. Daniel Jones was released, and Drew Lock and Tommy DeVito were injured, which led to action for Tim Boyle. 

Now, the Giants have the third pick in the draft, some capital and cash and a need at quarterback.

"I’m for taking swings at that position. It’s the most important position, and it’s hard to find them. So, keep swinging. Keep swinging at the position until you find one," Schoen said.

Sam Darnold, Justin Fields, Jameis Winston, and, eventually, Aaron Rodgers headline this free agency class. Kirk Cousins may also join that list. 

Stafford appears to be the main trade candidate, but the Giants could take Cam Ward or Shedeur Sanders with the No. 3 pick in the draft.

There are numerous options.
