Quote from: Uncle Mickey on Today at 05:56:09 PMEveryone of us here have a right to be disappointed about not getting the last franchise grade QB in the draft. There is a reason QBs went 1-2-3 and then not another until pick 8 (and a surprise pick at that).

Short of that, Giants decided no QB outside of the top 3 was a clear upgrade to DJ. Whether they are right or wrong will be proven soon. We have the support pieces in place now at least in theory. An OL that was further addressed with veterans not rookies with learning curves , a legitimate OL coach and a day ready made WR1.

We as the Big Blue Fans of Folk Lore need to be rooting like heck for DJ . He is the guy with the highest talent upside of any of the QBs we have. Therefore, if he finally hits that ceiling with all the better support pieces that are in place , this team would be the best version of what it could be starting next year!

Exactly!

Nope. I wanted an alpha receiver who can help any QB we decide to line up with. DJ is probably not the answer, so Nabers could help give a leg up on the development of the next guy. Look at how much better Tua was with Hill.

I'm not sure I buy into this whole "Jones is scared to throw deep" narrative. 

1. I hope the CB2 is not on the roster or else we might be in trouble. Flott is a better fit in the slot, and I don't yet trust Hawkins. Looking good in camp and looking good in actual games are very different.

2. Flott. He played well in the latter half of the year. And I wasn't happy with the Phillips pick and so don't see him competing early.

3. This is a no-brainer - Pinnock and Nubin.

4. McFadden. I see several calling for a full-time role for Simmons but he is not - and has never been - an effective every-down guy. Put him situations to succeed to get the most out of him. And while MM is no superstar, he plays a decent second fiddle next to Bobby.

5. Not on roster. But with hole at CB2 still needing to be filled, might have to go cheap here. In which case it's a Davidson-led rotation.

6. If Nabers isn't Day 1 starter then we really screwed up. Wan'dale is in the slot, with Slayton still a better option than Hyatt at this point.

7. Not a fan of any of them, so don't think it matters. But I'll go with Tracy.

8. Bellinger, with a lot of Johnson sprinkled in on 2-TE sets.

We've already tried the "move LT to RT" thing and that hasn't worked out well at all.  It still might, but so far it isn't good.  I was more than open to taking a tackle, but not in Round one and to move him to the right side.  I preferred Nabers for sure.

I've never seen a correlation between the play at the end of one year and what happens the following year. Means nothing.
