1. New York Giants

Sooner or later, the New York Giants will need to prepare for life without Eli Manning since as much as they want to continue proving the two-time Super Bowl MVP with opportunities on offense, the argument can be made the veteran is holding the team back.

Any offense with Saquon Barkley and Odell Beckham Jr. to work with should have little trouble in putting up a ton of points on a weekly basis. And since the Giants were already considered to explore the possibility of going with a quarterback in the first round of this year’s draft, they could get ahead of the game by acquiring Rosen from the Cardinals if they truly believe he could succeed in this offense.

In a way, a younger quarterback like Rosen working in a young offense like New York has could turn out to be the best case scenario for both parties, although the first thing the Giants need to do is figure out what the future holds for Manning.

Even if the Giants decided to have Rosen spend one year learning from Manning by watching the 2019 season from the sidelines, this wouldn’t exactly be the worst idea in the world. At the end of the day, if New York saw any sort of potential in Rosen being the long-term answer, this is what would matter the most.
