How Russell Wilson signing with Giants affects other free agent -quarterbacks, NFL draft

Russell Wilson is on his way to Big Apple after signing an annual agreement worth up to $ 21 million with New York Giants on Tuesday evening.

Wilson, 36, joins Jameis Winston, which Giants signed last week, and Tommy Devito in New York’s Quarterback room.

When Wilson joins Giants, Pittsburgh Steelers will wait for confirmation of confirmation from Aaron Rodgers, the best free agent quarter hill available. Pittsburgh divorced with a second round to land DK Metcalf in a splashing movement earlier this season and needs desperate Rodgers to compete in a crowded AFC Norr.

Justin Fields signed with New York Jets early in free agency. Steelers do not have many amazing options, as their only other quarterbacks are Skurlar Thompson and Mason Rudolph. Pittsburgh both saw their quarterbacks who won matches for the team last season leave for New York.

When Rodger’s Domino falls, all eyes will turn to Cleveland Browns, which has No. 2 overall choices. Kenny Pickett, who Browns acquired through trade with Philadelphia Eagles, is the only healthy quarterback on the guard list. Deshaun Watson broke his Achilles again, and his NFL career is probably over.

According to Cleveland.comMary Kay Cabot, The Browns has “mutual interest” with free agent quarterback Carson Wentz. They could also explore a reunion with Joe Flacco.

Assuming that Cam Ward is the total choice for Tennessee Titans in the upcoming draft, Cleveland’s plan with the number 2 choice remains unclear.

Browns was able to stay and develop Shereur Sanders as his future franchise -quarterback. They can also choose the best player available, whether they think it is Penn State Edge Rusher Abdul Carter or Heisman Trophy winner Travi’s Hunter. Another alternative is to be traded back and invest in next season’s rookie draft to class.

Atlanta Falcons also has an alternative for Cleveland in Kirk Cousins, who is reportedly waiting to see how the NFL draft plays out before deciding whether he should refrain from his clause without trade. If Falcons decides to buy NFL’s most expensive backup -quarterback ever, cousins ​​would prefer to start with their next team.

If Browns pass Sanders, Giants was able to choose him with the total election no. 3. Wilson and Winston could serve as quality mentors for the young Quarterbacken, who has over performed throughout their college career at Jackson State and Colorado.

Wilson’s arrival in New York gives Giants a start -quarterback and gives the rest of the NFL a clearer picture of how the low season can develop.
