Hello,

I agree with you that the thread title is not called for.

However, no one here has said that DJ is a #1 WR from being Patrick Mahomes, that is a bit extreme. However, what has been stated, is if you give him a better O line with a #1 WR we can see marked improvement, compared to last year and a possible winning record. Which would seem to be better than settling for a watered-down version of the top 3 QB's in the draft, but that decision is ultimately up to the Giants and not for us to decide.

Personally, if I were him, I would have been looking to go back to the NFC where he would still be near the top in terms of QBs.  In the AFC he's not even in the conversation for top 5.  I will also say I think it will be interesting to see how he meshes with Tomlin.  He doesn't seem like a guy that is going to let the QB have his own office and think he is above the rest of the team.  Maybe that lesson was learned for Russ, but Denver's willingness to eat 85 million in dead money makes me wonder.


Pittsburgh is a solid organization. I suspect they know what they're doing.

You are confusing BF with BC, BF was ride or die Jones, BC is ride or die the Davis Webb, Usain Bolt, and Gary Brightwell trio.

You're right...I confused the hot takes.

Anyone remember that guy who flooded the board with posts about the magnificence of John Jerry and how he was the best guard in the league?  I'm beginning to get that feeling again with some of this....

The Giants could very well draft a quarterback this year.  They could also choose to roll with Jones again.  I won't presume to know because I'm not Joe Schoen.  The presumption and insistence illustrated lately here that we have to take a quarterback is beyond tiresome.  We could literally be talking about the opening of free agency but instead we'd rather continue to argue about whether or not Daniel Jones is the future at QB, despite the fact that we really have no say in the matter.

Reports coming out that the Gianrs were waiting on Wilson to call them back and he never did signing with the steelers.

He's better off there. Smart move.

I wasn't one of them, I didn't buy into the claim of a thumb injury as the reason for his serious decline
