Great story! Thanks for sharing!!

So style (and hopefully production )wise are we looking at a Little Joe type or an Ahmad Bradshaw?

If he fills either set of cleats we win.

YESSSS!!
I am a HUGE FAN of this signing. Looking for a true breakout year from him this year.

So glad he didn't go to the Cowgirls.

I'm not a big believer in Maye, so no.

At the end of '22 I thought he had the chance to improve and grow into a full route tree type QB.

About week 3 last year, it dawned on me that this is not a long term solve at QB.

Not all his fault, but once you start seeing ghosts you're heading to a place from where there is no return.

It's time to move on IMVHO

You guys convinced me.

Risk vs reward = no Dobbins.

Gents,

To be clear. I'm not saying it hasn't been addressed (I am hopeful) but a bit skeptical.

What I'm asking is, was the FA haul the fix or the beginning of an overhaul topped off by strong draft picks?

I'm leaning toward the latter.

Ed, my answer to your question is YES.

How about doing both?

Dobbins despite his size, is a powerful runner. A bit like Ahmad Bradshaw.

Addressed the offensive line?

To me this feels like past off-seasons where we were all so thirsty for a functional OL that we got excited over middling signings.

I think most of those signings were depth, and that we still need Day 1 & day 2 OL.

You know who else used to play Center?

Fred Hoaglin. Arguably one of the best OL Coaches in Giants history.

This is why I'm so passionate about trading down instead of trading up.

You're going to give away those assets to move from 6 to 4 when the QB drop off is after the 3rd QB is picked?!

It's just not worth it.

I'm liking the Waller trade less and less with each passing day.

You're under contract BRO!!

The organization is trying to make personnel decisions and your indecision is getting in the way!

I hope his deadline is within the next two weeks.

Quote from: MightyGiants on March 25, 2024, 02:14:42 PMGiven all the turmoil and tension this caused on Daboll's staff last season, does Mara think Daboll needs to change his sideline tone, demeanor, and behavior entering a hot seat Year 3?

"There are times when I wish he would tone it down a little bit," Mara said Monday. "But I'm also in the team meetings, and I see how he acts around his coaches in the office. And he always maintains his cool there. Does he get excitable during the games sometimes? Yeah. So do I. But I don't think it's a major issue."

My takeaway from Mara?
"I'm in the team meetings"

A) of course Daboll is on his best behavior when Mara is in the room...and

B) WHY ARE YOU IN MEETINGS JOHN?!!

Quote from: LennG on March 25, 2024, 01:12:30 PMAndrew, like yourself, I'm going to sound like that broken record also, but the way I see it, like the original cartoon depicts, what good is a great WR if your QB can't get him the ball? We need a new QB and that is, and should be, draft position #1. We have some talented WRs. maybe not a true #1 but what is easier to obtain a franchise QB or a #1 WR?
We may not have the chance to secure the future QB for quite a while, we need to act while the iron is hot and take the guy who will take this team to the next level. A WR simply cannot do that.
If this roster was more than halfway built with solid LOS on both sides, I would be 100% aligned with your position

Sadly after all these years, it's still not.

I'm not looking forward to bringing another QB here just to get David Carr'd.

Our defense is not there yet and that's about a solid rotation that requires at least three of any DT or DE's to stop the run and play downhill.
