The AFC got a quarterback shake-up on Monday. There's never a quiet day for the NFL at this time of the year, and the move has some intriguing draft implications, too.
The Denver Broncos traded for New York Jets QB Zach Wilson.
How does that move affect the New York Giants?
Well, the idea that it will affect the Broncos' plan at QB in the draft is the more important factor. I don't foresee Denver throwing any plan at taking a QB in round one or two out the window after this move, though.
Why would they?
Wilson has not proven to be a starter at the NFL level, and Denver wouldn't be wise to put all of their eggs in his basket. He's got some intriguing physical abilities, but he's never been able to put it all together as pro.
Accordingly, expect Denver to remain active in the rookie QB market early in the draft under Sean Payton. You cannot rule them out after adding a passer that only costed them late round pick swap.
If the Giants want to go after a quarterback somewhat early, the Broncos will still be competition for them.
