An article from Newsday says that Manning is answering some of Warner's questions and that Warner has had some big misses. It's only his sixth day after all. Eli has been here a month and guys like Tiki Barber say there's a big difference: "That day (May 7 - first mini-camp) he looked like he couldn't play in high school," Barber said. "As the weeks have gone on, you can see his confidence."
This AP article on Sportsline notes that Coghlin is so impressed with Jesse Palmer that his football career didn't end when his TV career started. I wrote before about Palmer, the Giants, and the Bachelor, so you know how I feel. Still if Palmer beats out Manning for the #2 spot I guess we keep him. Our depth chart would be Warner (who Phil Simms says will statr), Palmer, Manning. I'm not sure what would happen to Van Dyke and J. Load.
Van Dyke seems to have played so well in Europe (he comes back soon) that unless he really underachieves in the preseason, he would make the practice squad. I'm not so sure if the Giants would put 2 QBs on the squad so J.Load might be the odd man out. Of course Palmer beating out Manning is a big if. We could then see him at #3 and deal with the same questions. Personally I'd like Van Dyke to get #3 but only if he's the better football player.
