For the last several months, there has been buzz in league circles that the Giants have significant interest in Duke quarterback Daniel Jones in the first-round of Thursday night’s NFL Draft.

There is even some belief that the Giants could pass on Ohio State’s Dwayne Haskins and one of the top pass rushers to take Jones with the No. 6 pick.

However, at least two scouts aren’t sold on Jones’ upside.

“He reminds me of Ryan Tannehill. There’s just something missing with him.” the scout told Bob McGinn. “He’s a good athlete but his vision is not good. He’s not very accurate at any level. He doesn’t have good pocket feel."

Told of the Tannehill comparison, one veteran AFC scout tells NJ Advance Media that is a fair projection for Jones’ ceiling.

“That’s probably a good comparison,” the scout said Monday. “Especially from a talent standpoint. But, Daniel’s probably ahead of Tannehill from a mental standpoint.”

Tannehill is a career 62.8 passer with 123 career touchdowns and 75 interceptions in 88 starts for the Miami Dolphins, prior to getting traded to the Tennessee Titans earlier this offseason, where he’ll presumably back up Marcus Mariota.

The Dolphins only reached the payoffs once, in 2016, since drafting Tannehill with the eighth pick in 2013.

Jones, meanwhile, started 36 games at Duke, where he played under Blue Devils head coach and quarterback guru David Cutcliffe. In his collegiate career, Jones completed just 59.9 percent of his passes for 8,201 yards with 22 touchdowns and nine interceptions.

Cutcliffe was Peyton Manning’s quarterbacks coach at Tennessee, and Eli frequently works out in Durham, N.C. with Cutcliffe. Last offseason, Jones and the Giants’ Eli Manning struck up a relationship.

“Being around those guys, watching Eli work out and lead those workouts and meetings and those types of things is really cool,’’ Jones said, during the Senior Bowl. “Just those relationships, being able to watch those guys is special. I got to interact with them a little bit. I got to sit in on one of Eli’s meetings and just kind of talk to him [while] walking through the building. Peyton was there also this past year.’’

Recently, the Giants put Jones through a private workout on Duke’s campus.

The feeling around the league is that talent executives are much higher on Jones during the pre-draft process, than the media has been over the past several months.

We’ll soon find out if Gettleman agrees with that sentiment.
