Quote from: MightyGiants on March 25, 2024, 02:19:19 PMI will add this, I did some real digging. If the Giants don't grab a QB in round one, it seems highly unlikely they will find a potential (even developmental) starting QB in day 2 or 3. Maybe Spencer Rattler, but he seems like a long shot to become a top 10 QB. I suspect his ceiling is starter a team where the team is constantly looking to upgrade the position.

The only one I would take is Penix. In fact, Minnesota would be stupid to trade up for McCarthy. Penix is the perfect fit for Minnesota. They have many pieces in place, including a great WR. He is NFL ready where McCarthy might need a year or two of development. The Vikings could get Penix easily at their pick and they have another pick in the first round that could fill a need.
Quote from: sxdxca38 on March 25, 2024, 12:36:25 PMI made this suggestion several months ago, but since the 2025 class is supposed to be a weak QB class, you don't draft a new QB till 2026.Wonder who the coach and GM will be in 2026 after two more years of mediocrity?
You continue to build the team and then go all in for the guy you want in 2026, but that is just my opinion.
Quote from: Philosophers on March 25, 2024, 11:15:49 AMWhich option gets us a top 10 QB performance by 2025 at a minimum?That is the issue or dilemma. Let's say the Giants improve incrementally. A record of 7-10 or 8-9. Jones plays part of the year putting up middling numbers. Lock fills in the other games and also is middling. Nix is relegated to third string, not good enough to supplant Lock. They won't be picking in the top ten even if there were a QB as good as the top 4 in this year's draft What to do?
That's what we must solve for?
Quote from: kingm56 on March 25, 2024, 10:46:34 AMI believe I addressed your question in the in second part of the my statement. When it comes to the draft, I prefer a return-on-investment philosophy. This season, I believe it's best to select the first or second best WR or best T, than pick the forth or fifth best QB. IMO, I'd gamble with the aforementioned QB (or similar) with potential upside in the late 1st or 2d; obviously, the former will require the Giants to spend assets to move up the draft; still, I believe this scenario represents the best ROI. If the Giants can come away with a blue chip WR and potential QB, I'd be elated.If they think Nix or anyone else day 2 has potential to be elite, yes. If they think they have potential just to start some day, it's a waste.
Quote from: kingm56 on March 25, 2024, 10:26:52 AMI actually agree with their position. As I just explained to Bob, I'd prefer the Giants draft a 'second-tier' QB like Nix in the late 1st or early 2d, preserving their 1st pick to select the best WR available.Who is the Giants QB of the future who will connect with this receiver?
Quote from: EDjohnst1981 on March 24, 2024, 03:47:49 PMThat's why I said "incrementally" better.No but you have to be realistic about results. But if they don't get their QB they take steps back.
With the money they have tied up in Dex and Burns, you can't simply write the year off.
If they are trading up. It's fair to say they ought to be better next year and then far better in the coming years.
Quote from: EDjohnst1981 on March 24, 2024, 03:55:32 PMNo point saying anything else at this point in year.Doubtful he will be ready.
It's clear he's going to be on the roster come September.
Quote from: EDjohnst1981 on March 24, 2024, 01:04:16 PMYes. It'll mean they believe the player will make the Giants incrementally better in the short term and much better in the long term.It's not about next year. For once the Giants need to focus on the long game.
You're either going QB or MHJ. And both options are good with me.
Quote from: AYM on March 23, 2024, 09:17:24 PMI think you could be right, if he goes to the right team and somehow stays healthy.I thought the Giants signed ba RT?
If he ends up on the Giants, the guy protecting his blindside is Evan Neal.
