The New York Giants, known to covet Mississippi quarterback Eli Manning, have spoken with the San Diego Chargers about obtaining the first pick in the NFL draft on April 24.
Chargers general manager A.J. Smith confirmed he got a call from Giants GM Ernie Accorsi on Tuesday.
``They would like to move from four to one,'' Smith said on Wednesday.
Smith wouldn't discuss specifics.
``Anything we discuss is football business between the two of us,'' Smith said.
San Diego was 4-12 last year, the same record as Oakland, Arizona and the Giants. But the Chargers got the No. 1 draft pick based on strength of schedule.
The Chargers worked out Manning and the other two highly regarded quarterbacks in the draft, Ben Roethlisberger and Philip Rivers.
