The guys whose jobs are very publicly on the line in 2025, want to tank and secure the top pick next year when there would be no chance of being retained?

If the Giants are going to sign another veteran (with an eye toward drafting a developmental QB), I think I would prefer Flacco over Wilson.  As for Flacco vs Rodgers, I am not so sure.

Just saw that the Giants signed Russell Wilson as well... not sure if it's rumor or not as I've seen nothing else to confirm it yet

We have no idea what is being said behind closed doors nor their long term plans.  When Mara said he liked what Schoen said when they spoke.  He could have said, "not in love with any of these qb's this year, so we can get a FA for now and then look to the following year......"

Spending on a pair of vets each or which would have been the best QB the Giants employed over the last 6 seasons is the opposite of tanking. It's hard to fathom given how dumb it is, but they seem to think they can compete right now. Which tells me they're not drafting a QB this year unless it's in the late 3rd or 4th round at the earliest. They want starters whether it's at DT or RG or Hunter/Carter.

I am one of the most vocally optimistic people are here when it comes to the state of the roster. I have said going back to last year the roster isn't that bad the QB is.


But that being the case what's best for the team's future is not this. This is best for 2025 for sure. But not 2026 and beyond. They're going to be too good to draft a QB next year and too bad to make the playoffs. Makes me sad. But on the bright side no Aaron Rodgers makes me very happy.
