Here's a thought- What if the Giants are prepping Jones to trade him?

[BluesCruz]

We might offer him and half his remaining contract in cash....or even pay it completely.  We have to pay his guaranteed money anyway stay or go.

Maybe the secret plan is to have Lock and DeVito fight it out after Jones has left for greener pastures.  I don't think Jones temeperment is well suited to NY.  He might be happier and thrive elsewhere

I know this sounds whacky, but it makes sense.  There is little likelihood Jones will be brought back next year anyway.  We might even get a late draft pick in the deal.

Is this a possibility?  I could actually see Jerry Jones wanting to put pressure on DAK and have Jones be there to step in if DAK gets hurt.

if someone wants DJ they can wait to see if we cut him.  no one wants that $40 mil. tab.

I know this sounds whacky

I completely agree

[Painter]

"Prepping" as you put it, so he will then have greater trade value? C'mon, get real for a change.


Cheers!

The Giants could pick up Half or most of that tab
They have to pay the guaranteed money out one way or another

on the other hand they have 2 relatively inexpensive but capable QBs riding the pine

this route might at least gain a late round draft choice or another player in exchange

Do I think it will happen- NO.  Not our style

So the Giants would be paying Jones to play for another team?  I have that as...unreasonable.

if he plays like last year it will be a blessing

I rarely post but I have to ask, don't you get tired of the endless Jones bash and Devito
coronation.

Why create the thread then?

Just curious.

The only way Giants trade DJ is if they draft a "ringer", or think they have one. DJ's the man until a proven replacement is in hand. Sooo...might as well root for DJ to have a good (even great) year this coming season, cuz he ain't going anywhere without a better replacement...and we don't have one

All true
However I'm racking my mind to recall a QB who had a mediocre career and was trending downward after 5 yrs in the league, then turned it around.   Maybe Geno Smith

Can Daniel Jones follow in Geno's footsteps.  Maybe but I doubt it.  And we had Geno on the roster

Im fairly certain we have seen Jones as he truly is..... We made a mistake.  Admit it, rectify it. No one should be given 5 years of failure and then

We let Geno walk after the whole Eli fiasco, and let the HC- Ben MacAdoo, who had recently taken us to 11-5 go instead.   now it appears Tommy DeVito will be lost like Geno was.

I can see another conundrum coming where Jones does not improve and another HC walks the plank for his QB decisions.

I hope I'm wrong.  I truly want to see us back in the hunt this year.

Why? It wouldn't be hard to guess, but would it really matter? On the other hand, it might be more interesting to think about prepping Linguini with Clam Sauce so it tastes more like Spaghetti Bolognaise.

Jones did not have five years of failure. He had a stellar rookie season throwing for 23 TDs and rose to 5th in the league in QBR until his offense disintegrated around him. In 2022, he led his team to a road playoff victory. The other years were marred by injuries as well as pathetic OL play and a very mediocre WR crew.

That's not a thought. It's a wish.
