Quote from: Jclayton92 on May 07, 2024, 07:41:01 PMIs there really that big of a difference in the 28th vs the 32nd to you?
I understand you were trying to make a point that somehow there was a huge difference in the 28th vs 32nd but there isn't, not enough to jump the stats that much. Even if you want to say they have better wrs which they do, Lock still attacked down the field while Jones did not.

Clearly, a high pick is expected to take over eventually, but it's still be Jones' job to lose (this year).
They paid him a lot of money. The only way they can attempt to get their "money's-worth" is to play him.

Quote from: TONKA56 on Today at 07:49:56 AMThis is the most likely scenario that supports Jones remaining in place. He needs to do just enough to keep drafting a blue chip replacement out of reach leaving the Giants' only other option being replacing him with a long in the tooth has been/never was retread. I suppose the Giants could capture lightning in a bottle with a high risk draft pick in the mid to late first round.
Quote from: MightyGiants on May 05, 2024, 02:30:37 PMMy best guess- Jones needs to do what he did in 2022, lead the team to a record that makes it difficult to impossible to draft his replacement
Quote from: AZGiantFan on Today at 01:57:41 AMSure and the difference between the worst WR group and the #7 WR group couldn't have anything to do with it. Plus, Lock was sacked 6 times in 2 games (3/game) while Jones was sacked 30 times in 5 games (6/game), just to put some context in that 28th to 32nd OL comparison.So that would have been 18 sacks to 30 over a 6 game stretch. If you deduct the sacks that were his fault then they are about even.
Quote from: T200 on May 07, 2024, 10:04:59 PMBob,
The QB order is Jones, Lock, and DeVito. If they made a move for Maye, he'd have to be viewed as the eventual #1. If they liked Maye better than Jones, then, by extension, better than the other two as well.
I don't think they'd make a move to get to a top 3 pick to draft a backup.
