He underestimated the FA Market.

He was set to make 12 million this season. Jones would be a good one-year stop gap at 29 years old.

This is a sign that the expectations for the next two seasons are low and it's better to invest elsewhere because a RB isn't going to make the difference with so many needs. He was the best player on the Offense and the Giants still couldn't compete. Great leader and teammate. He slowed a step but he's got plenty in the tank and will thrive and likely have his best years down the Pike.

He battled injury last season and then was platooned at RG.

Good for him. Way more than I ever expected.

They get it too.
Hello, Joe! Anybody home? 

A very underrated signing. They averaged six in 2022 and that may not include the lost yards on the muffed punts.

Quote from: Jclayton92 on March 11, 2024, 01:43:28 PMReports coming out that the Gianrs were waiting on Wilson to call them back and he never did signing with the steelers.

He's better off there. Smart move.

Quote from: uconnjack8 on March 11, 2024, 01:35:58 PMAgreed.  Haven't seen what Pollard's guarantees are yet.  That's basically what I was trying to say with my previous post.  If Barkley gets 10 million guaranteed in his next contract he will have gotten over that 19 million the Giants offered.

For sure. My guess is it's close to 12 guaranteed.

It was a risk for Barkley however due to his injury history. At the time I thought he should have taken the deal.

For the RB, the guaranteed money is the key. Barkley and Pollard contracts should be in the same ballpark. Pollard is a year younger and has stayed pretty healthy over his five years. His mileage is also low as he was behind Elliott for three years.

Barkley was arguing over the Guaranteed money and they were about three million apart. I recall the Giants offered 13 avg with 19 guaranteed. Saquon wanted two years tag money guaranteed.
