Quote from: AZGiantFan on November 16, 2023, 11:21:41 PMAre those in favor considering the CAP effect?  If they do it the 2024 CAP hit for our QB room would be DJ's $47 million plus $30 million for Allen.  In 2025 cutting DJ would leave a residual $22 million CAP hit for him, while Allen's CAP hit would go up to $39 million.  If you QB room is hitting you for $77 million, then $61 million, AND you've given up the golden ticket for 2024, how to you build out the roster?

IMHO a move like this would reek of desperation.  It would make them the Browns of 2008.

I thought we were talking fantasy? Lol

A proven Elite QB for the next ten years? Let me ask Jalin Hyatt...

He said hell yes!

So do I.

Wild Guess, the Niners popped in my head.

There's an argument to be made that most of the time the Lions don't show up.

We're taking about strangers on the internet here too. Not your first cousin approaching you for help with something.

I made the statement based on the premise of the article. You then proved it to be correct.

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on November 16, 2023, 02:43:00 PMI actually voted for "Eli knows more than fans about QB development" because that is a 100% true statement, and I would never be convinced otherwise.

What I don't know is exactly what Eli meant. If "bringing Jones back" simply refers to 2024, then I don't think that's much of a statement because that is clearly the only realistic thing they can do given his contract. Does Eli know how prohibitive it is to cut him after this season? Does he understand that it would be basically impossible to trade Jones with that contract?

If all Eli meant was that they should not do anything other than bring him back for the year 2024, then this is a complete non-story.

If on the other hand Eli is suggesting that the Giants commit to Jones long-term, which would involve restructuring his contract to get that $47mm 2024 cap hit down but would commit them to more years with him, then that is a horse of a different color. But I don't think he said that.

That's not true, people are intrinsically capable of helping others. 

So, what were those options again?

First it reminded me of this scene in a movie and then Carl did his best Holden Caulfield.

When do they reset the game? I did mine last night and the same puzzle is still up.

But seriously Luv those men but they know how to bring it on themselves, stirring up the masses for hits.

Back on topic, I've been very critical of Kafka but he's a young up and coming Coach and he's going to make mistakes but it's worthwhile working through them. I don't see them firing Kafka. He may very well take that Collegiate position but that's his decision.

Changes have to be made and Daboll has to be well aware of that even though he preaches his faith in the system. Wink and McG are experienced coaches who are running horrible Units. Wink may just retire.

Daboll has made mistakes and so has Schoen but they also bring a lot to the table and as bad as this team is, they will both be back. Schoen for sure and it would take a huge meltdown for Daboll to be fired after two seasons. The fan base hasn't turned on him at this point.

Be careful Rich. You don't want the wrath of PapaBanks coming down on you. 🤫
