Some people call him "unlucky"...but man, getting paid millions of dollars to sit on a bench and a front seat, field view of the game on the 50 yard line!!! That's not "unlucky"...and you'd have that shlt-eatin grin too if that girl was on your arm and thought you were her whole world. Don't care what anyone says...he is one lucky bastard. I hope he works out well for the Giants...if not, he'll retire to some beautiful home with a beautiful view and a pool and HER, damn!
The fact that Keith Richards has outlived Richard Simmons, sure makes me question this whole, "healthy eating and exercise" thing

Luck doesn't begin to describe Lock. :yes:  Yowser.

Every NFL player is lucky. Every player that signs an NFL contract hits the lottery.  You could give me any NFL contract and I am sure I'd be a very happy guy.

Can you imagine if the Giants pass on a QB and Daboll transforms him into a great QB? What a story that would be. The talent is certainly there.

I'm grateful beyond words to already have that girl on my arm, with all the love and support she has given me throughout several job-related moves, so I understand the narrative here and they see it as I do; a blessing for this new opportunity they find themselves in.

It is quite refreshing to read this and I'm very encouraged in reading some of the thoughts of the new players following their signing as a Giant. You want players who want to be there and this is a good approach to rebuilding the roster, in my opinion.

Welcome, Lock family!

Peace!

Ed: Do you sense (as I do) that there is a great deal of similarity between Jones and Lock (all-around)?  Bob
If Jeff Hostetler could do it, Daniel Jones can do it !!!

Ed: We may be in the minority, but the Lock move tells me the Giants are SERIOUS when they say they "like" Jones.

My extrapolation from that point is that the Giants are not going to draft a first-round QB.

Maybe they'll seek "the next Tom Brady" with their "new" 5th-rounder from the Burns trade. lol
