So, apparently the Giants were offered the same deal from the Jets that the Colts took.  Interesting.  The Giants want someone badly.  Is it Chubb?  I think it will be QB but wondering what they are thinking.  I don't think its Nelson or they take the Jets pitch.

They could end up with a better deal on draft night

Mike Wallace took that deal from Philly because their trying to maximize their window with a qb on a rookie deal. Who's to say he goes anywhere else for that cheap. 

Yes all these guys going REEEEEEE! thinking why didn't we do that. Marty got fleeced. Blah blah. Guess what? They want another ring and guys are going there cheap to do it. It's why there's so many 1years. Hoping they get another SB and the guys who signed get paid bank bc of it.

You keep on proving how little you know about the NFL.  Keep it up.

Bingo thought this was common sense. Players are going to give Philly a deal tha ttey wwouldn't offer other teams. It's why guys use to always line up to take less from the pats. 

The panthers when cam first started and Cowboys are a prime example of having bad contracts around a rookie qb. Prescotts cap hit is 700k and zeke is on a cheap deal but they can't do jack poo to improve that team.

Guy signs elsewhere for good money:

"They're chasing the money instead of signing with us where they have a better chance to win."

Guy signs elsewhere for cheap:

"He's taking less money than he would have wanted from us because he's chasing a ring.'

These two points of view need a cage match.

None of the players take less money to do anything.  Maybe a guy that KNOWS its 1 last season...but no...they want the money.  What would you do?  If you were retiring you want the MOST money you can a get.  Right?

Of COURSE you take the money.  Wallace is 2 yrs older than Torrey Smith.  I would bet Smith has better numbers this season.

      Malik Willis anyone

      By countryboi · Posted

      One thing I didn’t consider is how thin this draft is at quarterback. That’s going to drive up the market for backups and borderline starters like Willis, Jones, and Jameis Winston. Because of that, we’ll most likely be priced out of the market for this tier of backup.

      We've already beat the #1 seed twice, why not one more? (Packers and Rams were both #1 seed at the time we played)

      My determination has come down to this. Based on recent QB history, has Bryce's improvement warranted 50m per season? Lamar is the only original team QB to play on his 5th year. The others took major deals at the end of the 3rd, before or just after the option was signed. Chances are, we're getting asked for the same.  I haven't rooted for Bryce to fail. I've rooted for him to succeed so big that them signing that extension would give me no worries about our future at QB at all. We haven't seen that level of play consistently that this year. We haven't seen it in the past 6 games.  We're about to be at a threshold with Bryce and I worry about what this front office will do. We have a history of bad decision making and Morgan has been part of that group making those decisions. I don't want Carolina in the same boat Arizona and Miami are right now. It has nothing to with being right. It has to do with wanting to win for more than a single season. We've never had back to back winning seasons. Faith in their abilities is not warranted at this point.
