#2 – UCLA QB Josh Rosen
UCLA’s 6-foot-4, 220-pound quarterback is expected to be a top five selection should he decide to enter the 2018 draft. The Bruins junior quarterback has been on NFL teams’ radars since an impressive freshman season, but a history of injuries has led to some skepticism about his potential at the next level.
Rosen is considered the most pro-ready quarterback by most draft analysts, and Kiper has him listed as the No. 1 quarterback in this year’s class.
There is no questioning Rosen’s arm talent. He has shown both the ability to thread the needle and hit the deep ball during his collegiate career. Through two and half seasons, Rosen has thrown 59 touchdowns to 26 interceptions and has posted a 139.9 career passer efficiency rating.
The Bruins quarterback said this week that he “has not made any significant decisions” regarding the draft, and he is expected to play in the Cactus Bowl against Kansas State on Dec. 26.
Should the Giants elect to move on from Manning this offseason, Rosen might make the perfect fit for Big Blue.
