Not just a 6th....but a 6th NEXT year
-
So Fields and Wilson in Pittsburgh now...Fields for a 2025 6th...seems cheap for former 1st rounder
-
I am in the camp of getting one of the top 3 QBs if you can do so without having to pay an extreme premium to do so. But I just don't see those top 3 teams seperating from those picks without a 2nd this year and a 1st next...and maybe even then some.
So if QBs go 123, I am good with Odunze or Nabors. I worry a little about Nabors given the comparisons he will get to OBJ (LSU WR to the Giants)...
-
Just now, Mr. P said:
I read Pickett wanted out because they said the starting job was Wilson’s, instead of open competition.
Didn't seems like there was much hesitation on the Steelers to grants that request either
-
So Steelers all in on Russ I guess with Rudolph also leaving.
-
Yep..I want no parts of McCarthy. 2nd round maybe...but he won't be there.
-
The stat about Tiki that always impressed me was the percent of offense he represented in those years. Teams knew he was the centerpiece and he still got it done.
Off the field, he seems to be a bit of an ass...even if he does have some good perspective and experience to draw upon
-
Might be a function of the cap situation too.

Either they don’t expect jones to be healthy, or we aren’t drafting a qb
Or we may not have a shot at the top 3 QBs so it is between Jones and Lock...or we do get one of the top 3 and it's an open competition given the draft pick is still a rookie after all
-
I have to believe they just forfeit it...but if the league views the play as under contract at that point...maybe the Giants should get it. I really don't know.

Why would they get a pass on him though? Didn't they choose to sign him to the big deal?
They also chose to go into the 2023 season with big holes at G and question marks at RT.
Because given the moment a decision needed to be made, with the info and options they had at the time, you could argue it wasn't the worst decision they could've made.
Offensive line...if Neal lived up to his billing, we would be in a different situation. And Schoen was far from the only one looking to draft him.
-
I think both he and Dabs are gonna get a pass until Jones is gone. The contract Jones got was a mistake. Drafting him where we did was a mistake. But both times, Giants got screwed by circumstance and timing. Jones showing just enough to make you think he is taking a step, playoff win, less than stellar options for another QB...and so on.
-
Yeah...if he misses 6 games...even if he recovers...you gotta make him your #2. Kinda a dick move to screw him out of millions at that point, but if he ain't part of the future, which he absolutely wouldn't be at that point...you gotta look out for team first.
But he can play that game too...faking an injury in practice.
-
It's gonna take a lot to break into top 3 given they all need QBs...
-
None for Hodgins

Barkley gets a bad rap for going to division rival. Also, if he just posted a BS message like McKinney did, he likely wouldn't get as much backlash. Instead, he engages with talking head, Barber.
Would it have been too hard to say, regardless of how true, "I understand this move will be tough for the die hard fans of Big Blue to accept. That said, I frankly was not offered a contract this offseason, 2 years of negotiations to lengthen my Giants tenure haven't proven fruitful, and this opportunity is beneficial both financially and gives me a chance to play on a team closer to playoff calibur than the Giants are right now. I have nothing but respect for NY and its fans. I will miss my teammates and hope they find success. I will always have a special place in my heart for the Giants given that's where I started my NFL career. Thanks NY!"

My ideal draft right now:
- #6 WR Rome Odunze
- 2nd round (Giants trade their #47 pick and a 2025 2nd round pick to whomever to move up and take Michael Penix)
- 3rd: Best CB or S
- 4th: Best CB or S
- 5th: OL or DL depth
- 6th: OL or DL depth
I would push DL depth up in that list...last time someone said "you can never have enough pass rushers" it worked out pretty well for us.
The cat out of Penn State in the 2nd wouldn't be a bad grab if we went QB in first. Tho Rome is a tough one to pass on if avail

Yeah he is one of my all time favorites
When he literally ran towards a guy half way across the field to hit him instead of waiting to be hit, it cemented him as one of my favorites of all time.

Could have a worse backup.
One one hand, we go into season with Jones, Lock, DeVito ljkely in that order on depth chart.
On other, we draft a guy and pivot out DeVito. Drafted guy sits for a year and comes in next year to unseat Jones. We can look to restructure or cut Jones...or we can resign Lock at that point if rook works out.
Creates options, which I think is a huge piece of free agency.
-
Here's hoping someone not the Giants jumps up and takes McCarthy at 4 or 5 then.

We may not have the draft capital to trade up to a top 3 spot. Those three teams in the top 3 all need a QB...and they need one to start on day one.
I don't disagree. Only way I could see it is if we convinced them Jones can start for them and make him part of the trade...but that's about the longest shot ever.
Gonna be interesting...especially now that Tyrod is gone.
-
I think I want to trade up, but not sure we can get to 3. All signs point to Williams-Maye-Daniels in top 3. McCarthy doesn't excite me.
So yeah, if you can swing a trade up for Daniels or Maye, whomever is the 3rd QB...do that. If not, take Harrison Jr, Odunze, Nabors...in that order.
With Tyrod gone, we almost have to draft a guy...unless there are other back QBs around
-
Still need to find a starting safety and maybe another interior offensive lineman here in FA and I am all in on the trade up for the QB of your choice on draft day.

2nd and 5th is what we got for LW
Well fuck you too.....
in New York Giants

To think...you can be good at what you do and still be a dick. Groundbreaking revelation there...
