CrazedDogs Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 That was my first thought too, why trade snacks just to replace him... but Lawrence is a lot more than just a nose tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorillaNJ Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I'd have no issue with Jones if they took Allen at #6 and Jones at #17. We have no pass rushers. I can't wrap my head around trading Snacks for a 5th then essentially trading OBJ for Snacks' replacement. It's like we lost twice. Snack's much cheaper replacement and Collins much cheaper replacement too.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snack's much cheaper replacement and Collins much cheaper replacement too.... Snacks wasn't expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue25 Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Yeah the Lawrence pick was strange with Sweat there. I actually like Daniel Jones, but still would of preferred him at 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorillaNJ Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I hope so. Snacks wasn't expensive. $9 million a year is not cheap https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/detroit-lions/damon-harrison-10400/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 $9 million a year is not cheap https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/detroit-lions/damon-harrison-10400/ It's not break-the-bank money for the best run-stuffer in the league though. And with the Beckham and Vernon contracts off the books it doesn't make a big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazedDogs Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 If you guys need more proof... Getty has said that "fell in love with Daniel Jones after watching his first three series at the Senior Bowl." His first series at the Senior Bowl starts at 6:45. You guys tell me... do you fall in love with Daniel Jones here? Forget about All-Pro or Pro Bowl stuff.... do you see a competent NFL starter here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=095fXM7S3HU actually.… yeah.... he does look pretty damn competent there. Nice accurate, catchable passes. Except one that was almost picked. If his Duke film looked that good I wouldn't have been looking for a dog to kick last night.

mastershake Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Snacks 2.0 and Collins 2.0 basically. Plus whatever this 3rd rounder turns into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK-Giantsfan Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I must admit , at about 3am UK time last night I convinced myself that DG was working for the Redskins and this was all a big plot to destroy our franchise ( but that was probably the Glenmorangie talking ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his Duke film looked that good I wouldn't have been looking for a dog to kick last night. You think? I see nothing at all remarkable about this guy's play on that tape. Competent, maybe. Definitely not a "6th overall pick" performance though. I keep combing through things on my lunch break trying to find a silver lining but doesn't look like there is one.

Sephiroth Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 Also this. "Out of 58 QBs selected in the 1st Round over the previous 20 seasons, Daniel Jones' career 6.2 AY/A is equal or better than just Jake Locker, Patrick Ramsey and Kyle Boller" Can somebody like me to something.... ANYTHING... that makes me think this guy is worth this pick other than some talking head's opinion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueInCanada Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I do like the back peddling the media is doing after the Jones pick. Pre Draft "The Giants need to take a QB, doesn't matter if it's at 6 or 17 or they trade for Rosen they need a QB and it's a failure of a Draft if they don't address the problem behind Eli" After last night "What the fuck were they thinking taking a QB at #6? They should of drafted defense, and waited another year to fix the Eli problem" lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Yeah honestly, he doesn't look that much different/better than Davis Webb, and Webb arguably had more upside. I still think Webb has the tools to be very successful in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds dumb and short sighted. You fall in love with a player from studying his entire body of work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 When the transition from Manning to Jones into the offense ends up seamless, I dont want to hear it from the naysayers. He is Manning without the pedigree. Tough, intelligent, can make NFL throws, and hes a leader. He is also far more mobile than either Manning.

echochamber Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 As disappointed I am with our picks thus far, after thinking to myself what Reese would have done, I'm now perfectly happy with who has been drafted. That dumb fuck would have drafted a TE 6, a C at 17, and a long snapper with the trade up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Wagon Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Anyone take a look at the who the Senior Bowl MVPs were in the two years prior to Jones winning it? Give it a google...but dont do it if you have guns in the house. C. Wagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
