Giants coach Ben McAdoo Its not Eli Mannings job to develop Davis Webb

Wiki Article

The era, during which the won two Super Bowls, is beginning its final run. Not only is Manning 36 now, but the Giants are also beginning preparations for a new era. They made that much clear when on ex-Cal quarterback Davis Webb last week. But the Giants aren't expecting Webb to be groomed by Manning. On Tuesday, coach Ben Jarrell Brantley Jersey McAdoo said that Manning's job isn't to develop Webb into an NFL quarterback. "Eli needs to do his job, he needs to focus on getting ready to go out and play at a high level this year and be a good teammate like he always Royce O'Neale Jersey is,'' McAdoo said, "I'm sure the young guy is going to have some questions for him, but it's not Eli's job to get anybody ready to play this season and it's not Eli's job to go out and develop another quarterback. That's not his job description. His job is to prepare and perform.'' That's a refreshing perspective. And to be fair to Manning, it doesn't mean he's not a leader. It doesn't mean he's selfish. It's just the reality of the situation. Manning doesn't want Webb to take his job. Manning wants to hold off Webb as long as po sible. And if that happens, if Manning somehow pulls a and performs at a high-enough level into his 40s, that would be good news for the Giants as well. But that likely won't happen. Manning is already slowly declining, evidenced by his 6.7 yards per attempt last year. Manning's always been a streaky and clutch pa ser, so it's not out of the question for him to Justin Wright-Foreman Jersey lead the stacked Giants on another deep playoff run, but there's no doubt that the Giants made the right move to plan for the future. And Webb has a chance to eventually develop into a starting-caliber quarterback. Though he lacks the attributes to see the field immediately (he needs to adapt to an NFL offense after spending his college years in spread systems), he also has the tools to succeed in the long term. He has the arm to beat NFL defenses and the athleticism to survive the rigors of the NFL. Furthermore, he has the work ethic required.Webb isn't going to fail for Bojan Bogdanovic Jersey a lack of effort and by joining a good team with an already good quarterback in place, he'll have the time he needs to develop. The Giants already indicated that they believe Webb can take over for Manning, That's good news for Webb. This is what Sonny Dykes, who coached him at Cal last year, told me when I asked him about Webb's chances to succeed at the next level: "I think it all depends on what organization he goes to," Dykes says. "I think that his succe s, a lot of it is going to depend on that. That's just the way it works. That's the way, unfortunately, this stuff Elijah Hughes Jersey goes. If he has an opportunity to go to New Orleans and work with Sean Payton and watch then what a great opportunity, what an invaluable experience. If he's got to go someplace else and he has to play early and takes his lumps early it's a different experience. But he's still Donovan Mitchell Jersey going to benefit from that experience as well, a suming everybody doesn't turn on him immediately. "That's the bad thing about the NFL. If you don't throw six touchdowns the first week, you're labeled a failure and everybody turns on you. I think he would, like any quarterback, be very fortunate to go and have a chance to learn behind somebody and come along slowly." So, the draft worked out pretty well for Webb, even if Manning doesn't directly involve himself in his development. And hey, that strategy worked out pretty well the last time it involved an ex-Cal quarterback.Just ask . Here's what Brett Favre said after the Packers drafted Rodgers, via"My contract doesn't say I have to get Aaron Rodgers ready to play," Favre told ESPN. "Now hopefully he watches me and gets something from that."Of note: McAdoo was the Packers' tight ends coach at the time. So, he's speaking from John Stockton Jersey experience.
