There are strong rumors and rumblings that the Giants will get Aaron Rodgers

[H-Town G-Fan]

He will inevitably be a headache... but I don't think it's the worst idea. They need a QB on the roster prior to the draft. Provided Rodgers comes relatively cheaply, I don't mind it. That being said, if he does sign, there will assuredly come a point in the season when I highly regret posting this when he makes a spectacle of himself.

What game will Rodgers go down for the season? 41 year old QBs are nice for a game or two as a backup. It will be a fiasco.

[MrGap92]

His play in 2023 is better than anything Jones ever put together, as well as Lock and DeVito, it would be a sizable upgrade and a bridge, won't have to force QB at 3.

The money will need to make sense though, which I am not sure it will, all things considered.

I agree he is better than anyone the Giants have at QB by a long shot. He's also older than any of them by a long shot. And coming to a team that is weak in so many areas. Not a good fit for either. Especially if there is a rookie that is waiting in the wings.

I dont mind the age since we are talking about a 1-2 year bridge. Since no draft capital is involved it is what it is for me. In that regard age is a non factor for me.

If this was a trade scenario I would be completely out.

Is football really Rodgers priority?  Didnt seem that way with the Jets.

[Stringer Bell]

Ancient QB. Absolutely headache and terrible fit for young roster. Prima Donna ("bring my guys aboard or else!") Liar about health issues that could have hurt his teammates.

I would rather lose without Rodgers than win with him. No contest.

[DaveBrown74]

How legitimate are any of these rumors about who our QB will be next year? First was all this talk about how our front office was enamored with Shedeur. Then I read here that the Giants were potentially going to take Dart third overall. Then it was basically a done deal we were trading for Stafford. Then just 2-3 days ago I was reading/hearing that we were trading up to the 1-hole so we could draft Cam Ward. Now we're apparently going to sign Rodgers.

One thing is for certain - the folks who "break" these stories are certainly making their bosses happy by getting all these clicks from credulous Giants fans. Impressive work on their part. They have literally gotten this fan base to believe every single possible outcome in the span of about three or four weeks!

Why all the negativity about Rodgers? Currently the Giants have NO ONE IN THE QB ROOM, oh yeah, cutlets, again, NO ONE IN THE QB ROOM. The Giants are in a bad situation exacerbated by bad timing to be looking for an effective starter at the most important position. They're trying to make the best of it, before the draft.

I don't get it.  But then people loved Jones since he was a good guy, hard working etc.  Same logic in my opinion.  Rodgers rubs people the wrong way, but he's smart and a First Ballot HoF QB. Absolutely sign him.  We won't be saddled with him long and it could be interesting.  It doesn't block us from taking a QB next year, but hopefully means we don't overdraft a mediocre one this spring.

I'm fine with it. No great expectations, but it's probably the best option given the circumstances and that's why they're doing it.  Not a desperation move to save their jobs.  Drafting Sanders would be that.

[Jclayton92]

What do you guys think Rodgers will cost in 2025?

What would be the max you'd be willing to pay if it were your decision?

2 year 55 million with most in the first year so they can dump him in the 2nd if need be.

I'm pretty neutral on this topic, and I'm not challenging you on this statement, but this can affect the Giants ability to draft a QB next year. How so? Let me explain.

Because if Rogers has a good year next year, and the Giants win some games, let's say 7-9 wins, then that will put them way out of the range of getting one of the top QB's next year, like an Arch Manning.

I think if the Giants don't draft a QB this year, they've got to tank next year to have a shot at one of the elite QB prospects next year, or they will miss the boat again. Because QB needy teams are not going to move out of their draft position unless you give up the farm, and even then, most won't budge from their spot.

Is he the best free agent vet qb, yes by a mile. That's all that should matter, can he play ball at high level, yes. He allows us to draft and develop a qb longterm without rushing anything. So why would we go with Winston or Fields who are clearly significantly below Rodgers level.

I think this is debatable. My opinion, Rodgers has plenty in the tank and he would come with a chip. Maybe it's not popular but I'll go on record and say with him we make the Wild Card at least.

Regarding the debate is he the best by far, two minutes left today do u have more faith in Rodgers or Cousins?....Cousins makes it look easy at times

Acquiring Rodgers is a 'Win Now' move for a team that is in the 'Win Now' window.

Being realistic, our focus should be on building a perennial playoff team, not patching up a lower tier roster to squeak out a few more wins. Rodgers doesn't help this team long-term. It's a one-season move at best.

I think these strong rumors are being floated by the Giants to guage fan reaction to his potential signing.

That thought crossed my mind and also that they have interest in another QB and this is a Trumplike distraction.
