Big Blue Huddle

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on March 15, 2024, 03:03:48 PMWow. I mean I'm no Pickett guy, but they got absolutely nothing for him if what you have posted is accurate. He has two years left on his rookie contract, and since he was picked like 17th or something it's not that much money. Insane move by the Steelers. Why would you give away a reasonably competent QB getting paid very little for nothing?

Who knows but I find Pickett to be terrible. So getting a 3rd rounder is probably the best they'll ever get. His value shrinks by the day since he won't play.

For the 98th pick and two 7th rounders. Eagles get pick 120 back.

Quote from: Gmo11 on March 15, 2024, 12:00:26 PMNot if they draft a QB at #6.  Run Jones out there and lose a lot.  Let the kid sit and learn.  Kid starts next season fresh with a year's worth of NFL playbook/practice under his belt and the Giants get ready to actually compete with another high draft pick.  They can't cut Jones so they might as well throw him out there. 

That's what Lock is for. If jones plays and gets hurt again - we are stuck with him and have to pay him an injury settlement to release him.

Keep him on the bench and get rid of him after the year.

Quote from: WheresDayne on March 15, 2024, 11:54:45 AMIf there are 4 blue chip QB's and 2 blue chip WR's and we pick 6th, just let the draft come to you and pick the BPA.

We need a QB. That's why you have to get him.

Jones starting this year will be the worst decision this team has made since hiring Gettleman.

Arizona is taking MHJr. They just traded their best WR and let Brown go.

They have zero weapons on the outside.

Quote from: uconnjack8 on March 15, 2024, 10:01:42 AMReally do not understand this trade from the Texans view.  I see so little value in moving from the 6th or 7th to the 5th to move out of the 1st round and back 20 picks. 

What am I missing?

They get Minnesotas second next year too

From the Texans. So now they have the 11th, 23rd, and next years first to jump us to get a QB.

That's a lot of ammunition.

The quicker we can forget Barkley - the more the organization can move forward.

Might go down as one of the most overrated players in our history. He had 1 very good year.

You cannot cut Jones until he passes a physical which probably won't be until late July or early August anyways.

Jones most likely stays the entire yet and will be gone after the 2024-2025 season.

As far as him being toxic? That's just made up nonsense from our resident Jones basher. If jones has exhibited anything is that he is a good teammate and has created absolutely no controversy off the field.

Again, he is suspended to start the year. Got benched last year for being terrible. Was replaced by the last pick of the draft who performed much better than he did as a rookie.

Jimmy G sucks. And if you want to get confrontational - lets have a mod review your last post.

lol Jimmy G sucks. And he is also suspended already. Great call.

I hate the Eagles. That's all I got.

And it could be easily argued that none are nearly as good except for Hunter who cost a little less but is much older.

Quote from: MightyGiants on March 13, 2024, 09:37:36 AMThe Giants could have signed Josh Allen for that sort of money and kept their draft picks

he was tagged and Jacksonville has shown no interest in trading him, so its 2 different situations.
