Quote from: MightyGiants on Today at 03:56:58 PMHe is a player who can't stay healthy (only 12 games last season) and is often not 100% due to injury. He is also a player whose stats and play are declining with age.Jones can't stay healthy either and his production has been horrible yet you're not advocating for him to lose his job, but instead listing reasons why he'll blossom in year 6.
Bellinger and Theo Johnson
Bellinger seemed to suffer a sophomore slump. Hopeful he rounds back into his rookie form.
Quote from: Uncle Mickey on Today at 03:33:20 PMNew coaches or GM's that come in that inherit players they tend to treat those players as 'step-children'
At first sign of trouble they want to get rid of them.
Guys they bring in as FAs are like 'adopted children'
And guys they draft are like 'biological children'
See how McAdoo treated Eli, TC with Kerry as couple examples of many.
That said, I still expect it to be Daniel but if Drew becomes Daboll's new 'pet project' it will be interesting if bias enters in the decision making process.
Quote from: MightyGiants on Today at 12:00:29 PMSince the Giants gave Johnson the "big bucks," I did a little digging. He was one of Tony Pauline's sleepers
Quote from: babywhales on Today at 04:03:19 PMTake the 12 mill saved on a Post June 1 cut and go get someone that could be more impactful. 14mill for 500 yards and 1 TD isn't worth it
Quote from: B1GBLUE on Today at 04:17:30 PMi think its just more they were in a position to get their next guy, rather than being completely done with jones. jones is halfway through a lackluster career, and has had some serious injuries in that time. i think they are more concerned about him staying healthy than his play, which probably isnt far behind. a contingency plan has to be put in place at this point
Quote from: MightyGiants on Today at 09:07:00 AMI think the team will be pushing Flott out to the boundary to compete with McCloud and Hawkins for CB 2 with Phillips being the team's new slot CB.
Quote from: H-Town G-Fan on April 29, 2024, 10:28:08 PMI find it interesting many here are still couching things as "fans" being "done with" Jones, ignoring the fact that the front office literally (and in a well-documented manner) just attempted to pay a huge price to jump up three spots to move on from him. Jones very well might have a better year in 2024, but unless he's magically an MVP candidate, his time with the Giants will end after his current contract.
Quote from: Uncle Mickey on Today at 09:11:43 AMSOme may not agree but I think this draft will have 4 maybe more who become positive to strong contributors to the team and a few day 1 starters. I think we bring in a vet CB and this team will hinge on DJ. If he is the real deal then this team will surprise.
