BlueInCanada Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Jets give up their first, and two second round picks and their 2019 second round pick. Guess that means the Giants have missed their chance to trade down. Only team I see is the Broncos now and I can't see them giving up a kings ransom for #2.

BlueInCanada Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 So to move up three spots the Jets gave up three second round picks. Don't know how worth it it is considering most of these QBs would of been sitting at #6, unless they know what the Giants and Browns are planning and their guy will be there at #3. Mayfield?

Herc Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Why did they sign two qbs if they were going to trade up for a qb lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueInCanada Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 Why did they sign two qbs if they were going to trade up for a qb lol Why did we sign Kurt Warner when the plan since day one of that off season was to draft Eli? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Why did we sign Kurt Warner when the plan since day one of that off season was to draft Eli? So he could start and Eli could dress and be the number 2 qb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herc Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Well there is a key difference in the two situations. We brought in one guy and they brought 2 (two) guys in. Unless Bridgewater or McCowns contract isnt guaranteed this is 15 million invested in those 2 plus the number 3 overall pick who I cant imagine will be inactive every week. Somethings gotta give.

Unless Bridgewater or McCowns contract isnt guaranteed this is 15 million invested in those 2 plus the number 3 overall pick who I cant imagine will be inactive every week. Somethings gotta give. Not really, they brought back their starting QB, and a QB who is coming off one of the most atrocious knee injuries in recent history for a QB and hasnt played a snap in two years. Bridgewater might not even make the team come time for camp and from what I read they could cut him any time without having to pay out his entire contract. Not to mention McCown suffered a broken hand last year. They are gonna let those two fight for the starting gig, while keeping whoever they draft on the bench, I wouldnt be surprised if they end up putting Bridgewater on the pup list come week 1.

BronxEagle Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Good move. Let's hope they don't fuck this up... Freeman McNeil was actually good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what youre saying is that they wont be carrying those three qbs all year. Like I said, somethings gotta give Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steitzenhaus Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Well this pretty much puts Barkley on the Giants if they want him. Cleveland cant fuck around now at 1 they need to take the quarterback they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 I really wanted to trade with the Jets but this does put more pressure on other teams that want to move up now. So not great news yet can still work to our advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boohyah Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Good move. Let's hope they don't fuck this up... Freeman McNeil was actually good though. Yeah, no way he should be included on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman_NYG Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Browns are now screwed and might be forced to go QB with their No.1 since the guy they want might not be there at No.4. Plus I honestly feel we should not pass on Barkley at all - our OL seems to have been fairly addressed in the off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmenroc Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Don't think our o line is anywhere near addressed yet...sure, a move or two helps...but it's far from a completed project...especially the right side. Would still take Nelson or another top lineman over Barkley I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman_NYG Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 For some reason - I feel safer going with OL in FA. Flowers sucked dick. Robert Gallery for ex - dont even know where the dude is now. I mean - lots of others. Barkley I feel is a safer bet than Nelson - Nelson is certainly a marauding dude - but dunno, I cant see us passing on Barkley.

gmenroc Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 If anything, it's the position that's concerning...a guard at #2 is a little tough to take...but at the same time, guards are the ones who can end up with a 10-12 year career and have the longevity that RBs often don't. Admittedly, I'm in the camp that thinks many RBs of the past who have success has more to do with the offensive line they ran behind. It's why Barry Sanders is widely put above Emmitt Smith in RB rankings. Sanders had shit to run behind. The Lions had shit for options outside Sanders. Emmitt had 5 giant mofos to run behind in an offense that featured a shit ton of other weapons. You can go with the lesser talented RB so long as you have the big guys up front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorillaNJ Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 This move is great for the Giants! It does 2 things. First it sets them up to have Barkley on the board for them, Second if the Browns decide to take Barkley it make the 2nd pick even more valuable if they are looking to trade since everyone knows that the Jets are going QB with that 3rd pick.
