Meanwhile, behind him is just a quarterback who leads the NFL with an average of 8.0 yards at catch on his completions since 2015. Of course, that is none other than Jameis Winston (Wilson is eighth at 6.5).
"I'm always a big believer in you try to run things at the quarterback and (what) your guys do well," Daboll said. "So, I'm not like, hey, here is this playbook, learn the playbook. I think the playbook has to be ever-changing and have to do things, whether it's Russ, Jameis, I've watched all their tape. It's been a long process. With the college guys as well.
"And you just try to figure out what you think they do really well so that you can have good conversations with them and say, hey, tell me about what you like, and then see if it correlates with what you saw on tape. If they tell you something, well, I like this. I watched this many plays and I haven't seen you run this play one time, so where we going with this? So, they develop in that regard."
One of those players he helped just won league MVP.
"Just a tremendous person first and foremost, and an outstanding football player," Daboll said of Bills quarterback Josh Allen, who was drafted in Daboll's first season as their offensive coordinator. "I couldn't be happier for him and his family and the steps he's taken to grow as a quarterback. It's been very impressive. He's all-day tough. He's an exceptional player in terms of his arms, his legs, and he's done a great job for that organization and I'm very happy for him."
The draft evaluation was a "long process" that year, just like it is this time around.
Daboll typically doesn't attend pro days. He prefers the private workouts where he can set the script.
"You can put them through the things you want to see," Daboll said. "Maybe it's different than what they did for the pro day they've practiced a bunch. You can spend a lot of time with the player in the meeting room in addition to what you've spent before. You can recap some of the things that you taught, you can add some new things, you can see how they interact with some of their guys in an intimate setting, if you will. You put them in charge of them things to take care of for the workouts. We've done a number of these private workouts for the quarterback position. That's what I prefer."
Now the ultimate question is which player he prefers.
"We're going to go through the evaluation of all the guys that have been on my list to look at and talk to," Daboll said. "Again, everything has to fall in the line too, relative to draft picks, where you're picking, if somebody gets picked ahead of time. Everybody out there, 'Oh, my gosh, (Falcons quarterback) Michael Penix got taken here.' You don't know when they're going to get taken. If there is an affinity you have for a player, if you feel like that player is the right player and they're sitting there at whatever pick you have, is it a reach, not a reach, I'm not going to get into that. It's how you feel about the player and does that player match where you want to take them."
The Giants currently own eight picks, including five in the top 105 and starting with No. 3 overall.
