Quote from: B1GBLUE on May 03, 2024, 11:05:33 AMi think if it comes down to it, and we MUST make a move up next year, its a better year to do it than it has been in a long time. we have some CORE players. we have 2 young stud pass rushers locked up, an elite dt locked up, a semi elite mlb locked up, a number one corner locked up, a blue chip wr locked up, a franchise LT locked up. hopefully a franchise C locked up.
With all that being said, if there was ever a year in which i could see us trading up with our 1st round, and following 1st round pick, it would be the 2025 draft. not saying we are "a qb away", but we for the first time in a long time have a lot of core, normally high draft capital guys locked up.

Quote from: sxdxca38 on May 03, 2024, 10:20:38 AMWhat is more important to the QB than the WR is the offensive line.
Go and look up the offensive line rankings Tom Brady and Eli Manning both played with in the prime of their careers.
It is no coincidence that both had elite level line play to give them time to dissect a defense.

I like your post. I will say, to me this question is akin to which tire on a car is the most important. For an offense to be successful you need a good QB and at least one really good receiving threat (can be a WR or special TE)
Quote from: BluesCruz on May 02, 2024, 11:08:26 PMone must not forget Tommy got thrown to the beast with little preparation
he kook the opportunity and beat Philly, his throws along the boundaries are world class
he keeps his head together and inspires the offense and never panics
Brown and Id dare say Lock do not posses this kind of polish and confidence...sorry but the Jersey Tomato is the best of the lot by far. I think Schoen knows this too
Will dump Brown at ist opportuity, disregard Lock and promote Tommy who has gotten lots of reps running the practice teaming will be ready when called
Quote from: MightyGiants on May 02, 2024, 02:02:51 PMI got excited when Ojulari came to OTAs jacked. Since then, a player coming in jacked is not something I immediately celebrate
Quote from: ViewFromSection129 on May 02, 2024, 12:42:48 PMFar be it for me to defend the Giants, as the last decade plus proves that they have been well behind average as a franchise, but this guy makes zero sense. Take JJ just because positional value dictates a QB? Take an OT and move him to ROT just like we did a few years ago? And what, make trades to shake things up and be more inspiring? This guy sounds like an idiot.
Sure, I could have made a good case to trade down in the first and get more picks and draft into the WR strength in the draft, but I give the Giants credit for not trading up, or not taking a QB at 6 they did not have convictions on. They will be judged harshly if they missed on QB, but they didn't do the "easy" thing and pick a QB and try to do something with a player that they didn't believe in.
Quote from: Trench on May 01, 2024, 02:20:15 PMIt will be interesting to see if this new defense generates more pressure also
Quote from: MightyGiants on May 01, 2024, 11:48:02 AMIF DJ was being completely honest about his second neck injury just being a routine stinger (and implying it had nothing to do with his prior )neck injury
IF the Giants can properly protect DJ, there is a reasonable chance he can avoid another major injury
