Few teams are better at stockpiling depth and identifying talent than the New York Giants. New York is loaded at running back, wide receiver, offensive line, defensive line and defensive back.

But one of the first positions it accumulated talent at in this Super Bowl era is quarterback.

Within a six-week span in 2004, the three quarterbacks on the Giants roster were Eli Manning, Kerry Collins and Kurt Warner.

Collins and Warner are, in many circles, two of the leading contenders for this season’s NFL MVP award and Manning won last season’s Super Bowl MVP.

New York traded for Manning during the April 2004 draft. Days later, on April 29, the Giants released Collins, who had led New York to its previous NFC Championship. Then on June 3, 2004, the Giants signed Warner.

Now Manning is leading the Giants into Arizona today to face Warner’s Cardinals, Collins is getting ready for Brett Favre and the New York Jets, and it’s obvious that New York was ahead of the game on quarterbacks.
