I think we'd have to have the 1st pick to really entice anyone of value other than a retread.

Why would any coach come here seriously? The guy won a playoff game with Daniel Jones, you think the next coach is going to here if we run off a coach of the year in 3 years?

Don't get me wrong I want a new guy but still.

If you were replacing Daboll, who's the first 3 people you'd call for the job?

We won't know about Nubin for a few weeks since he missed a lot of camp but if him, Nabers, and Phillips pan out I'll feel a lot better about schoen. That assumes JMS and Banks continue to get better.

Loved it, Mayor of Kingstown, yellowstone, and so on. Sheridan can't go wrong at this point imo.

Silo was phenomenal.

Tulsa king s2 e1 hooked me, that's how you start a 2nd season.

Falato is my favorite Giants insider to covet, always about the Xs and Os.

Quote from: Ed Vette on September 18, 2024, 02:20:23 PMBe careful of the highlight reels. Arch has a way to go before he can be considered a top QB. The Defense they faced was extremely weak and the RR system is a well Designed Offense. It was like TX was playing the Paramus HS football team. He missed hot reads and checkdowns and I haven't even finished watching the tape. He's got talent and he's a chip off the old grandpa.

Couldn't agree more, great post.

I deleted my message as it is early here and i was meaning to qoute Fletch but I accidentally quoted the JT guy by mistake.

Quote from: Trench on September 18, 2024, 02:03:48 PMBrissett does look pretty good

Yeah the stats aren't jumping off the charts yet but they don't have to. He is running what they ask of him and winning. The guy has only been on one team for longer than a year, so he's learning new offenses yearly and still thriving.

I was extremely impressed with what Darnold did at the end of his time with the Panthers, to the point I remember myself and @Ed Vette discussing it in a thread and being really impressed when others weren't. He takes a year with the 49ers and pops out with the Vikings thriving.

I mean look what Carr is doing with the Saints, guy puts up good production with the Raiders and still gets shipped out. He is absolutely killing it right now and making 40 million less than Jones.

Mayfield another guy who gets shipped out and is thriving.

What the Giants need right now more than anything is to marry a competent Qb with a good playcaller. We know from his previous stops that Daboll is a good pkaycaller, and so getting him competent play would go a long way and you don't have to spend 60 million a year to get it.

I'd rather have Darnold, or Brissett for 8 million a year right now than Dak, Jones, and a few other Qbs at their price tag.

Quote from: bamagiantfan on September 18, 2024, 01:59:36 PMMaybe a straight swap - Jones for Brice. Both could benefit from a change in scenery. There's been enough screaming on this board that the Giants need to get a top pick in the draft to get a quality QB. Well, there appears to be one available.

While I do think that we need a new Qb badly, the more I evaluate the talent for 2025, the more I'm almost assured that we need to skip on one in 2025 and bridge a qb.

No.

List of just a few FA qbs in 2025 to bridge us until our next guy.

Sam Darnold
Jacoby Brissett
Andy Dalton
Justin Fields
Russell Wilson

And so on.

Darnold and Brissett likely get Minshew money or close to it. Minshew signed a 2 year 25 million dollar deal with the Raiders. 12 million a year for competent qb play is a lot better than 30 million for bad qb play.

I'd trade a 4th or 5th right now for Brissett, and Lock him up as the bridge qb for the next 2 years assuming the patriots slowly work Maye in this year.

People are acting like the Panthers have nothing in the cupboard. There are a handful of skills I'd love to have on the Giants, here's a few of their guys.

RB Miles Sanders, Chubba Hubbard the Auburn back

WR Jonathon Mingo
Xavier Leggette
Diontae Johnson
Adam Theilen

They don't have world beaters but they have talent.
