Eli Manning was acquired by the Giants in a 2004 trade with the San Diego Chargers (who had drafted him No. 1 overall) in exchange for Philip Rivers. Manning led the Giants to two Super Bowl titles during the 2007 and 2011 seasons, while Rivers never won a Super Bowl in his 18-year NFL career. Accorsi had followed Manning since his time at Ole Miss and was convinced he was the franchise quarterback the Giants needed.

Manning was selected first overall in the 2004 NFL draft but refused to play for the San Diego Chargers; Accorsi, picking fourth overall, acquired Manning by trading the rights to North Carolina State QB Philip Rivers and a 2005 first-round pick. Over a 16-year career entirely with the Giants, Manning was twice named Super Bowl MVP and took ownership of most of the franchise's significant passing records by a wide margin. Manning stated he called Accorsi every draft week for the last 12+ years to thank him for the trade and believing in him.
