It's likely to be under $10M, and he's a solid D-Lineman, on a 2023 team where we're likely to jettison Leonard Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 That is interesting. Really thought it was just a given they were going to do it. That neck injury last season really must scare them long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the scary thing is, despite not being good enough, often he was also the best player on offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 I haven't given up on Daniel Jones, really hope he has a great year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmenroc Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 I think the 20M price tag scared them off in Jones when they could tag him if needed. Too much unknown on his game to risk 20M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman_NYG Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 If they give Jones some protection and consistency with the WR and he does perform this year under the new regime, they franchise tag him for 2023. Thats it - picking up the 5th year option was too risky... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmenroc Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 I think Jones is mature enough to know that he didn't perform up to his draft pick and didn't earn that 5th year option. And with the new staff, I gotta believe the writing was on the wall for him that this year would be the deciding factor. Could be starter in 2023 for us, or could be a bust and career backup. High stakes for him in 2022. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This... if he can run around and survive, he might be a backup somewhere. 2023 He will probably not be a Giant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, given what you just said, this just means he needs better pieces around him to be adequate or good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are we just supposed to hold onto him for another three years while the team is being built? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorBanksCarsonVanPelt Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Hell no... we would still have Graham, or Kanell... worse Brown if we had that mindset. Sometimes you are a Simms, Hostetler, and/or Eli type... other times you are a bust or back bencher. Sometimes you just have to elevate the guys around you.

There are only so many things a team can do. Right now is not the time to upgrade the position…. There were no sure-fire prospects snd the organization’s salary cap sucks. I thought we agreed 2022 is his last chance. besides we have Davis Webb on the roster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
