JJ McCarthy (could he be the Giants target in round one)?

[Jclayton92]

I don't doubt his claim of 4 years working with the Jets, but frankly, I had a hard time taking him seriously after he made this comment:
Of things that might be indicators of NFL success, winning the Heisman is not one of them.

Pretty sure his resume has been proven false by others.

If they trade up to pick McCarthy instead of Harrison, it will ruin my year.

I get it.  If he turns out to be "The Next Tom Brady" (also from Michigan, and also dissed/ignored pre-draft) they'll never live it down.  I say I'll take that bet (won't be the next Brady).

I say tell me his three greatest attributes. I can only think of one that really matters to an NFL team (good leader). I do see, though, that players might think more highly of him, depending on what scuttlebutt is going around about him.  I don't know. Maybe Schoen and Mara should ask the players. lol

Bob - why the GOAT?  How about the next Ben Roethlisberger, Kurt Warner, Justin Herbert?

Other attributes?  How about "very live arm"?  Threw it 61 mph while record is 62 mph at the Combine?

How about pocket presence/ability to look downfield while scrambling and throw really well on the run?  How about a great spiral for those windy days?  How about playing in cold, crappy weather and winning?

More than you think.

Arizona announced their pick is up for grabs.

See how Phil Simms explains how he went from thinking JJ was a round 3 prospect to top 10

Wow.

Let the bidding war for the 4th QB off the board begin!

Smart by Arizona. Yes, MHJ is a great prospect. But the gap between him and Nabers/Odunze may not be as big as people are making it out to be. Moreover, there are multiple QB-desperate teams out there that are drooling for that pick. If you're the Cards, you have to think there's a pretty good chance someone will overpay significantly.

Meanwhile the Chargers have to be loving this right now. They're going to get their pick of the receivers.

I know some folks may not want the "4th" QB with the 6th pick but he may end up being the best of the group.  How would you feel then?

[kartanoman]

However, I think it is fair to give Jerrah some credit for the Cowboys' relatively consistent competitiveness, while I think Mara has more to do with the famine years and very little to do with the occasional feast years.

They have more to do with the likes of men such as Parcells, Coughlin, Simms, Hostetler, Manning, Taylor, Carson, Banks, Strahan, Tuck, Umenyiora, among other key personnel and staff who represented winning eras for the Giants' organization. To these leaders, both on and off the field, greatness, at a level the Cowboys have not experienced since their 1970s dominance. Great Trade Robbery of the 90s aside.

Peace!

Agree Bob,

You can't pass on MHJ if you trade up. Trading up for a surefire star is acceptable, a McCarthy no.

What's more valuable to an offense: a top 3 QB or a top 3 WR?

Roster development is relative. You can win with either or neither, it all depends on the how the rest of the team is built.
