The Giants now have two No. 1 overall draft picks on the roster.
According to Adam Schefter of NFL Network, quarterback David Carr has agreed to terms on a one-year, $1 million deal. He can earn more in incentives.
Carr was the first overall selection of the Texans in 2002. He’ll work behind quarterback Eli Manning, the first overall selection of the Chargers in 2004, who then was promptly traded to New York.
The former Texan spent five years in Houston before being released in 2007. He signed as a backup with the Panthers, but was cut again after only one year there.

Something tells me David will enjoy working behind Eli. I’m surprised he didn’t end up with the 49′ers.

What does this tell Eli?
“Hey, Eli. Look, we know you were the Super Bowl MVP, but, we just don’t think you’re that good, so we’re going to sign David Carr, a perennial bust.”
There’s some confidence for your quarterback. I’m interested in seeing how Eli plays this next season. We know the NFL won’t make it any easier for him, watch the Giants get one of the hardest schedules this upcoming Fall. He’s a 20 interception QB for life in my opinion.
