I tend to not buy the reports that McCarthy could overtake Maye as the third QB off the board, but what do I know. We'll see. But clearly the Pats are drafting a QB. This was obvious before this transaction but now any shreds of doubt are 100% removed.

Wow. That would be incredible (JJ 3rd).
Still have trouble with him in the top   But in that scenario,  who knows what happens.  Still figure Maye will be their guy.

He has a very small build and will get
Killed in NFL .....not sure he can handle the beating every QB has to take

Daniels weighed in at 210. Agree..he needs to fill out. Major priority but his skill set is terrific.

Daniels by a good margin. I don't trust Caleb.. size..attitude..etc. Maye is a project and JJ overrated by some.

JD is as Chris Walken said in his BMW ad..
"100 per cent...electric!!!"

  

Sean Payton made a huge mistake coming to be the Bronco Honcho. Should have been more patient than to agree to the ownership chaos in Denver. Maybe the Chargers could have been there this year .maybe the Pokes. Hey, he got paid, but he's also got a lot of cow chips to clean up, starting at qb.

Quote from: Painter on March 08, 2024, 02:36:32 PMPerhaps, but more in the sense of Daniels rising in the Silly Season's week-to-week popularity contest whose only effect prior to the names called on 4/27 will be to cheers some and irritate others among those who actually givesa. 

Cheers!

Clearly, the odds of the Giants getting it qb right aren't good statiscally speaking. Yes, it's football fodder for the draft nerd, but in Maye's case, I think teams know he's not ready for primetime.

That's why I'd much rather keep the picks and find an all-pro wr type. That I feel much more certain about..and the chances of Maye dropping to us slim. Someone will mortgage their future on him, hopefully not our heroes.

Quote from: ralphpal1 on March 08, 2024, 11:57:02 AMWhy cut Jones just to pay him? Also ,the way QBs get hurt
You never know. 

Getting hurt? Jones fits that bill without a hitch.

Mayeday. Mayeday. I'm sensing a downturn in Maye's position at the upper tier of the draft. His final season left some draft niks wanting more. It seees to coincide with JJ's meteoric rise into top 10 predictions.

Our heroes seem lurching to some towards qb inevitably there. Is Maye a lock to the Pats? I'm certain, however, they can find a trade partner (Raiders, Vikings, Broncos). But I don't want to trade 3 picks for him,.

I've said it before: I don't value JJ at 6. Much rather have a likely star in Nabers or Odunze.

Peacock and the NFL couldn't flip the script and play the game earlier or simply reschedule? Hmmm.  :$$$$$$??

Quote from: MightyGiants on March 06, 2024, 08:22:12 AMI think if the Giants let both Barkley and McKinney walk (getting nothing in return), it only worsens the error Schoen made by not trading these guys before last season's trade deadline.

Mighty,

I agree. I thought keeping Barkley made no sense at the trade deadline. McKinney isn't gone yet, however, but they should have been more aggressive to add draft capital in concert with the Leo move.

Totally agree with both decisions. Barkley can't be trusted to stay healthy or get a third and short. Franchise tag didn't help much last year.

McKinney, a good player that plays a position the Giants will likely draft to bolster. Giants have to fix the OL first and foremost, can't afford what McKinney probably values himself

Talkin beers?

Head to the mountains..Busch.

I forget Rheingold and Stroh's . Genny Cream too

I am willing to add quality young players then reach for a qb. Yes, the challenge is maybe next year's qb class might not be great (we'll see) but adding a star wr and using our picks to address other areas of need is my prescription.

And Jones has a much better chance to finish his lame duck season.

So a choice of qbs? One a move up (3rd qb Maye),the other a young pup (JJ)?? I don't have a conviction on Maye or JJ, although it may be the direction ultimately.

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on March 04, 2024, 08:27:30 PMI'm certainly not saying he was very good. I know he wasn't. There was definitely well worse starting QB play out there though (no need to name names).

I do think there will be some sort of market for him given nobody other than the team that cut him owes him anything. I'll be surprised if he is unemployed come week one.

Dave,

I understand. Meant well. Wilson did play much better than the year prior but eventually drove Payton nuts in his declining arc.

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on March 04, 2024, 08:00:49 PMFalcons, Steelers, Titans, and Raiders come to mind as potential possibilities.

Wilson wasn't all that terrible last year. He had a 98 rating (8th best in the league), and 26 TD passes with 8 picks. Imagine all the confetti that would get thrown if Jones put up those precise numbers.

Dave,

Titans have Levis in his sophomore season and seem set. Falcs seem to want Cousins. So the Steelers and Raiders... maybe left?

Pickens is just as bad as it gets and Mason Rudolph is a career backup. Pitt seems like an opportunity.
To the Raiderrz? Could be as a last resort; no?

Wilson's numbers were a bit deceiving and he flopped in critical spots. He couldn't find the throwing lanes he used to looking lost.
