Because you can't win without a QB.  Cam couldn't make it the season last year.  This gives us the ability to pull him immediately and put a guy in there who can still lead us to the playoffs.  At worst, he'll be the backup for a few years.  Today was all about Cam.

If Cam gets injured the seasons over, stop acting like Grier is some bonafide sure thing. Theres a reason he went late 3rd as a QB. This is a shot in the dark at replacing newton.

I wanted a Safety or DT but I understand the pick of QB. If Cam doesn't come back we start at least grooming a potential future starter. Or it's a better back up which could also have Allen as the 3rd QB (I see them keeping 3 QB's this year). If Cam turns out good and plays into a another big contract, he is either a solid back up or trade bait in a couple of years. Didn't care for the timing of the pick but I understand it.

Ben was in his 30s, Hundley was a 5th round pick and Eli is washed  in his 30s and the giants are not a team to model yourself after.

 

 

And Cam has shoulder issues with no backup option at QB.  30s and healthy vs 29 and injured, come on

I don't doubt that at all. He's nobody. He's Jesse Palmer. A "celebrity" in a world where people are famous for being famous, not because they did something or have a talent.

We drafted a Kardashian. The analysts even said it had more to do with the recievers.

lol what an awful post

Touchdown Jesus gotta be better than Clipboard Jesus so we got that going for us.

but big picture this isn’t bad.  We need to groom young talent and we need talent given Cam’s shoulder.  

Cam is still the man but I feel good with Grier and Allen at backup

for those freaking out? Keep in mind I am not sure Cam even is throwing right now.  He could throw last season.  He might need a Luck year or he could never come back right or he could be MVP Cam.   But addressing QB depth is something any responsible franchise would do

If Cam really does have shoulder issues you don’t draft a filler third rounder 

If?  It’s not a question that he has issues.  The unknown of whether it will impact him in the short term and long term is why you get a guy like Grier to let Norv develop and have ready in case you need him.  Best case scenario is you don’t need him at all, worst case you have a capable guy to step in and help win a game.

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
