Big Blue Huddle

Also for context, Staffords brother in law is Chad Hall who was the Wrs coach in Buffalo while Daboll and Schoen coached there. They are reuniting with him and making him the Assistant Qb coach, him being Staffords brother in law just gives ppl a chance to have clickbait.

Totally agree. I did say in my initial post , " depending upon what the Rams want "

Many of them are driven by the Giants hiring his brother-in-law as their new assistant QB coach

My thoughts on such a trade



1)  Financially, it's not very beneficial for the Rams to move on from Stafford

2)  While the Rams have Garrapollo, they don't have an equal replacement for Stafford

3)  For the currently 37-year-old QB, throwing in sunny LA is a lot better than the brutal cold and winds of the Meadowlands

4)  Stafford is expensive and would chew up most of the Giants cap space

5)  Stafford likes it in LA

If the Giants try and pull this off, I would put this in the category of "desperation moves," something Schoen promised us he wouldn't do to try and save his job.

The only positive, would be that the Giants wouldn't have to reach for a QB in round one and instead could hopefully draft a blue chip prospect.

Stafford to the Giants would be exactly what the Knicks pre-Leon Rose would have done.  Over pay for a declining old player on a bad team that needs ascending youthful players instead.

May as well bring back Kenny Golladay while we're at it.

This is pretty much my feeling. Bringing in Stafford would help make the Giants a middle of the pack team, but doesn't elevate them to one of the better teams in the league. By the time they get there, they'd need a new QB anyway.

I would say Jets.  It would be exactly like bringing in Favre or Rodger's.  Although I would say I thought the Jets had a better roster when they made those moves.

Craig Morton for the 1st round pick that gave the Cowboys HOF DT Randy White.

So NO! Please don't compound the stupidity.

Don't worry Andrew if we hadn't made that trade t the Giants would have drafted another Joe Don Looney or Cedric Jones or Rocky Thompson, shall I go on? You get the point, but your point is spot on.

I can't help but think I'm responsible for this rumor.

This morning "rumors" (translation: guess work by talking heads and fans) say that the Rams are critiquing the QB class and are expected to take Kyle McCord with their 2nd rd pick 

I'm sure that Kyle McCord on their roster is more appealing than paying a truck load of money to keep Stafford on the team

Stafford could end up being cut, and some team will probably sign him on the cheap for a 1-2 yr contract. His value is in mentoring a rookie QB (IMO...and what the hell do I know? I'm never right about what NFL teams will do)

Once the Giants signed Stafford's brother-in-law, EVERYONE was thinking the same thing as you. You just were the first to point it out...LOL

Over the hill, average at best QB. Na, I'm good and hopefully the Giants are too.

LOL. Well played Lenn!

Oh and let's not forget, with Stafford, we would need a competent OL (pass and run blockings) so that we could give him a balanced offense. But WAIT, that was our excuse for not keeping Saquon.
