Message: [QUOTE="A10 fan, post: 2876495, member: 3154"] If the Giants were determined to take Barkley at 2, they should have taken Mason Rudolph in the third round before the Steelers got him. Of course he's no sure thing, but most scouts regarded him well enough that he would have been good value in the third round. If you really thought that Eli had a couple of years left in him, they could have groomed Rudolph to be his eventual replacement. If in a year or two Rudolph doesn't appear to have the goods, you go ahead and spend the high draft pick on a qb. This is exactly what the Steelers did. If Rudolph has the goods, they will avoid having to spend picks to trade up to get a decent qb in a few years. [/QUOTE]
