Barkley to the Iggles

[Trench]

I'm not happy for him at all. He was a Captain. Was never gonna have to worry about $ regardless after this contract. In NY if he did well he also had more endorsements coming. Show some class and give Giants a chance to make a better offer at least.

He is in our stadium I will boo. No ovations for the RB touched by the hand of God or whatever he was supposed to be.

Might not be as easy as some here think to draft a decent running back

Who says he didn't give the Giants a chance?  They could have signed him before this even started.

I agree. I thought there was an understanding that he would give the Giants the ability to match

I'm not getting worked up over this. Let someone else overpay him, I'm glad the Giants didn't. Schoen has much more work to do fixing this team than overpaying for a RB IMO.

There is no way in hell he received a better or even comparable offer from Schoen than this deal.  If he had- he'd be a Giant, which was always his preferred option.  At first glance, this offer is even better than the money he was asking for from the Giants ALREADY (reportedly)- which they never agreed on and led to the tag.

To be clear, I understand the Giants not wanting to spend that money on him.  I love the player and just wished he had gone to the AFC so I didn't have to hate him.

I wonder how Barkley's and the Giant's fortunes would have changed if Barkley hadn't picked his first agent for her looks and Barkley had signed the similar three-year deal with the Giants and freed up the franchise tag to use as more leverage over Jones...

Interesting and more damning for Schoen (who should have traded him last season if this was his intention)

Good riddance. His talk was just that - talk. No loyalty. This is another reason why we don't need 10 Captains.
The title is watered down.

I predict whoever our RB will be is going to be close to what Saquon does for Philly. Hope he keeps running into the backs of his new Olinemen.

[killarich]

Yep a scumbag

You fake a** New Yorker..... Hope the Eagles continue to collapse like we saw at the end of the season even with the addition of you and Huff. Hope you age quickly now and fall into the RB short shelf life narrative and in the process tie money up on the Eagles cap space

DEAD to me

He underestimated the FA Market.

I can't blame you for feeling this way.  Even though Barkley kept his nose clean, for some reason I found him a hard Giants star to like.

[Trench]

Well, now it is truly Daniel Jones team.

Will be interesting to hear if Barkley has any negatives to say about Dabol as well.
