I’d be all about some Minshew Mania, bring him back to North Carolina. Give the Eagles a conditional fourth that turns into a fifth if Minshew doesn’t start at least 10 games. They acquired him for a conditional sixth so they are still making a profit off of the trade. If they want P.J. Walker as a backup to Hurts they can have him too, it would send him back to Philly.

Every asshole?

I’d be curious to know if there is anyone that wanted Lance last year but does not want Willis this year… and if so, what the reasoning is.

This intrigues me.. he was not good last year but came back way too early from achilles surgery and also had knee, toe, and pectoral injuries. With a full offseason to rehab he might be able to get back to his KC days. It would have to be a prove it deal though, you can’t give big money to a guy who hasn’t proven he is back after an achilles injury.

I think they’ll let him reach otherwise why keep him? If we’re content with Darnold and another losing season then why not bring in a coach who can start to build his team for 2023? Rhule is fighting for his job and he’s going to do everything to try and save it, even if it’s reaching for a QB.

Unfortunately the linebackers don’t.

It’s the common sense move for sure but Rhule knows he can’t win with Darnold so it’s QB or bust (unless he thinks he can win with Jimmy G or Minshew).

Unfortunately.

We could have signed James Daniels and kept Christensen at LT but whatever.

I wanted to poo but it made me laugh.

Not sure who mentioned this but I looked into it and Christensen was much better at LT than LG… by like a long shot. If we sign Brown or Armstead then Christensen is for sure getting moved to guard which I don’t think is great for his progress.

It was actually a surgery on his achilles and he came back super early, the knee injury occurred in December and he was also dealing with a toe and pectoral injury. With all of that in mind, a prove it deal for Fisher would be interesting.

Anything over 2yrs./$20M and we are getting fleeced. The guy is almost 40 and is coming off his worse season since his rookie year.

Better go ahead and get those Kenny Pickett photoshops ready…

If they sign him, I’m expecting 2yrs./$18M (or at least hoping it’s not worse than that).

Eh, pursuing and closing in on are a little different. Not saying it won’t happen but it might not.

As long as it’s no more than a two year deal, I assume he’ll be less expensive than Armstead and even in his old age he doesn’t miss as many games as Armstead. He did give up a poo load of sacks last year though.

He did that many of times specifically to the right side which is why I question how Pitt was asking him to read the field.

For sure, he probably has more drops than any NFL QB but even with the drops it’s still not great. Read number four of this article - https://www.si.com/nfl/giants/big-blue-plus/5-areas-where-daniel-jones-must-improve-in-2021 So if Jones was at 55% when hitting on targets and that doesn’t factor in drops then maybe he gets boosted to 60% which is still ass. If Pickett is Jones then I want none of him.

Maybe out of college but everyone raves about Jones improved arm strength (https://giantswire.usatoday.com/2020/08/24/new-york-giants-jerry-schuplinski-daniel-jones-arm-strength-eye-opening/). And no, Daniel Jones has never and will never be accurate. His career completion % at Duke was 59% (read number 4 - https://www.si.com/nfl/giants/big-blue-plus/5-areas-where-daniel-jones-must-improve-in-2021)

Don’t think that’s it, Daniel Jones has a cannon and his accuracy is also poo.

Personal opinion but I think scouts think they can make Pickett into a mobile Matt Ryan. Like I said, he goes through his progressions well. If a team can focus on getting him to read defenses correctly then you’ve checked a box. Additionally, if the accuracy from last year is what we can expect from Pickett in the future then you have a 68% completion percentage on your hand which is elite. Bridgewater could be a good comparison but the thing that could make him a mobile Matt Ryan is that Pickett has much better velocity than Bridgewater and the touch he puts on passes is pretty damn good. I think worst case scenario is Andy Dalton, the most likely scenario is probably Teddy Bridgewater (with more ball velocity) or Chad Pennington (a mobile version), and the best case scenario is a mobile Matt Ryan (if everything work out). In order for Pickett to be a franchise QB he’ll need to read the defenses correctly, not just go through his progressions (I’m not worried about this), have elite accuracy to make up for his arm strength (I’m worried about this), and stop turning the ball over so much (I’m worried about this).

Thank God.

No argument there, his deep ball is not great. Which is why I prefer Willis. I think in today’s NFL you have to be elite at stretching the field. Only a handful of QB’s are still left that don’t have the elite ability to stretch the field, the main one being Brady. But with Brady, his intermediate accuracy is so elite that it makes up for it. The weaker armed QB’s are starting to go extinct.
