Best Twitter reactions from fans after New York Giants take Daniel Jones with 6th pick

Guess the Eli Manning era is over.

The New York Giants found his replacement after they took Duke quarterback Daniel Jones with the No. 6 pick during Thursday’s NFL Draft in Nashville. 

They passed on Ohio State’s Dwayne Haskins. 

Kyler Murray, who went No. 1 to Arizona, finished last season with the second highest passer rating among qualifying quarterbacks. Haskins was fourth. As for Jones, he was 66th. 

Haskins finished last season with 70 percent passing completion and a 9.1 yards-per-attempt average. Jones ended the year, 60.5 percent and 6.8 yards per attempt.

So naturally, New York fans took to social media to express their opinion; some were hopeful while others won over the internet.
