Just coming across the air
I told my teenage son, when I was his age, I used to get 10 CDs in the mail for a penny. I don't know if he thought I was lying or even knew what a CD was, or what a penny was, or what the mail was, or all of the above

Tommy Cutlets should beat him out.

Interesting. Still young and has some experience. Was he a 2nd round pick?  Not a bad pick up.

He led the Seahawks to win over the Eagles last year putting together a 92 yard drive in the last 1:52 on the clock with a 29 yd TD throw to Smith-Njigba

Hopefully, he's a late bloomer like Geno Smith

He's better than Devito for sure.  Possibly better than Jones if we're being honest just not as a mobile.  But post ACL exploding who knows how mobile Jones still is.

Yes, out of Mizzou and I think the same year as Jones.  Remember watching him in college and thinking he was ok.  His career so far is evidence I don't know squat!

Lock is a very different QB to Jones. He is a pocket guy, with a big arm and will sling it deep given time but he has very little regard for coverage and throws nearly as many Int as TD.

If we treat the injury and OL hampered start of last year as an aberration Jones had evolved into a mobile but excessively cautious QB who does not turn the football over more than average.

They certainly are not like for like. That might make for a genuine competition of sorts if Jones is fit in camp.
If you live your life as a pessimist you never really live your life at all.

This probably ensures Jones won't take a snap next year.

Regardless if he wins the backup position, he will bring some eye-candy to the Giants

They could have had Flacco.
