Michigan WR Mario Manningham drafted by Giants in third round

EAST RUTHERFORD - Manning to Manningham.
If the Giants’ wishes come true, that will become one of the team’s top quarterback-wide receiver combinations for many years. With their third choice in the NFL Draft, the 95th overall selection, the Giants today chose Mario Manningham, one of the most productive receivers in the long and proud history of University of Michigan football.
Manningham, a shade under six feet tall and 178 pounds, played three seasons for the Wolverines and finished fourth in school history with 27 touchdown catches, fifth with 2,310 receiving yards and ninth with 137 receptions. Twenty of those 27 touchdowns were more than 20 yards long. One of the wideouts with more career yards at Michigan was Amani Toomer, the Giants’ second-round draft choice in 1996 and now the franchise’s career leader in almost every significant pass-catching category.
In 2007, Manningham was selected first team All-Big Ten. He started 11 of the 12 games in which he played at split end and compiled career-high totals of 72 catches for 1,174 yards and 12 touchdowns.
Like virtually everyone in the draft, Manningham hoped to be selected earlier than he was. But he seemed eminently pleased to become a Giant.
“I was just happy knowing that it is the New York Giants, the Super Bowl champs,” Manningham said. “You can’t ask for anything better than that.
“You never know what can happen, because some players that they had going early, they didn’t go early, and some players they had going late didn’t go late. I am just thankful to get drafted. I am just thankful to be in the position that I am in, playing for the Super Bowl champions and trying to make a return there next year.”
Both Manningham and general manager Jerry Reese were asked about the receiver’s off-the-field issues. About a year ago, he was one of three young men in a car that was stopped by a police officer in Michigan, who found a couple of tablets of Vicodin, a prescription pain killer and controlled substance, in Manningham’s pockets and more in a suitcase in the trunk. Manningham was not charged, though he was suspended for Michigan’s game against Eastern Michigan.
“We did our homework on him,” Reese said. “Yesterday you guys talked about (first-round choice) Kenny Phillips and why didn’t we bring him in. There really wasn’t a lot to bring him in for. We brought this young man in. Our coaches spent a lot of time with him. We interviewed him at the combine. We did our homework on him. He has tremendous value right now where we are picking. We think he will be okay.”
Manningham assured everyone he talked to in the organization that any problems he had are in the past.
“He convinced me, he convinced our coaches – and it’s well documented – that he made a couple of mistakes,” Reese said. “He is a young kid. He is a junior. So hopefully he learned from his mistakes and he will come in here and he will give us a big play threat on the outside. This guy has got the production you want. He has got a big strike on the outside. He gets big strikes on the outside. And that was attractive for us.”
This is the third year in a row the Giants have chosen a receiver in the first three rounds of the draft. Two years ago it was Sinorice Moss and last year’s selection was Steve Smith, both on the second round.
Reese indicated that Manningham’s talent level compares favorably with those receivers taken earlier in this draft.
“Talent-wise, I think the guy could have really gone in the first row,” Reese said. “But at this point at the bottom of the third row, we think this is a guy that has great value and he is talented. He is really talented. And again, we did our homework on him. We have a couple of different testing agencies, psychological testing and stuff that we did with him. We are satisfied that he will be okay. And obviously when he comes in, probably kind of like Ahmad (Bradshaw) last year, we will bring him in and say, ‘Look, this is what it is going to be and we expect you to do that.’ And hopefully he will do that.
Bradshaw also had some collegiate issues off the field and was told told he would be on a short leash after being drafted in the seventh round by the Giants. Bradshaw became an important contributor late in the season and in the playoffs.
“If you are screwing up, we are not going to spend a lot of time on you,” Reese said. “You are on a short leash, just like Ahmad last year – I don’t care if you are seventh round or third round (choice). If you come in here and do the wrong things, we are not going to tolerate that. We don’t think he will do that.”
Come on, their playing the Cowboys, automatic beating, lol.Quote:

McNabb is a highly overrated, underachiever. He has the potential to be a great QB, but doesn't utilize it correctly.Quote:
