Rodgers clearly looks at the Giants as like a last choice.  Move on Giants.

Anyone know if Carson Wentz has improved after a couple of years with Andy Reid? I read an article that quoted Andy saying that Carson as ready to look for a starting job.

At this point, I'd take him over Tommy and then I'd take a QB in the 2nd or 3rd round. Use the rest of the picks to build more quality into this roster.

No need to spend all this $$$$ and cap space for a couple of well past their prime QB's.
From Simms to Eli (with an assist from Hoss) our Super Bowl Quarterbacks. Great defense and clutch QB performances...NY Giants Championship football.

I have an old profile still floating around: andrew_nyg....I am one and the same!

Supposedly Wilson spent the entire day yesterday with the Giants but thefre is no news anywhere. Did he leave without a deal ? What if Rodgers signs with the Vikings and Wilson reups with the Steelers , then what ? Does Schoen give up draft pickl to move up to sign Ward ?  The Giants have an horrendous schedule next year. Are we going to throw Ward into the fire like the Commanders did with Daniels and hopoe for the best ?

yes, local news reported that Wilson left without a deal.

I think we should just offer Wilson a contract and keep it moving

I'm starting to think Rodgers is just trying to see who is LOYAL to HIM and who will hold off the longest


It's just a hunch , and I don't have that hate for Rodgers like a lot do ...... but if my hunch is right .... It's a very selfish way of thinking on his part

I don't know if it's true but I read somewhere that Russell Wilson wants a two year deal and the Giants just one. That would be a stupid gamble on the Giants part. Nevertheless, Andrew is right. He left.

Kind of says we are going all in for qb top 3 if true. Wilson is the guy I want now

Would think Schoen and Daboll would be ok with a 2 year deal given their tenuous position.  Of course not knowing what a contract ask is makes it impossible to draw conclusions.

They could write a 2 year deal with a bonus for Wilson if Daboll and Schoen aren't fired after year 1.  =)) 

Gman329

I would give Wilson the two years in a heartbeat and if we draft a QB, he sits and learns for a year.  If that means Wilson is a highly paid back up for year two, so be it.  it's only a year.

And yeah, I know the the idea of getting everything you can out of the rookie contract......but that often leads to diminishing returns.  Throwing a rookie QB in before he's ready benefits no one. 

One other observation.  The title of this thread - started on Wednesday - did not age well!

Wentz had a start last year with the Chiefs, he didn't impress.

QuoteRodgers has been targeted by the Steelers and Giants but has essentially put both teams on hold while he waits for clarity regarding the Vikings' situation. If Minnesota ceases to be an option, it's also possible that Rodgers will turn down both the Steelers (a 2024 playoff team) and Giants and instead opt for retirement.

They are in a real bind. I can't see them turning to Rodgers with a top ten pick waiting in the wings (and burning that entry level contact).

That said, I can see why they would want Rodgers.

Who's going to blink first? Somebody has to...

Behind the curtain: Aaron Rodgers is leaking NOTHING and he is keeping no one near him who will leak.
The #Vikings are still thinking about how much they believe in JJ (and how you have to rip the bandage off eventually when you believe in someone).
The #Giants would unequivocally love to have Rodgers, but are not leaking anything to anyone b/c they don't want to jeopardize anything.
The #Steelers think they are in the mix. It's anyone's guess how much patience Rodgers has over the stuff that has nothing to do with football over potential teammates in that city.

Taking away the diva stuff and distractions, because I respect the footbal IQ of members of this board (and since it's beaten to death), who do you guys think is a better QB right now in terms of winning g games for the NY Giants:

 Rodgers or Wilson?
