A Cam trade that makes way too much sense and I’m shocked it hasn’t been mentioned yet.

Giants hire Rivera, we trade Cam to the Giants for their draft pick and move to a top 3 pick in the draft. Makes sense for everyone involved. We get a top 3 pick to draft Cam’s replacement, Giants get Gettleman,  Rivera, Cam and Shula all back together again. Eli retires and Daniel Jones gets more time to learn on the bench. Not only do the Giants get a potential franchise QB in Cam for at least a few years, there would literally be no growing pains since Cam probably knows Shula’s offense better than he knows himself. Oh and Cam would be a HUGE draw in NY and would fit in perfectly there.

Rookie Jones has looked better than Cam the last two seasons. 
 

There’s a bigger chance that Eli may be a Panther next year than Cam being a Giant.

The reason it hasn't been mentioned is because it makes little-to-no sense. You don't draft a QB in the top 10, start him as a rookie, then sit him behind a (then) 31 year old FA signing the next few seasons with an eye towards the former rook resuming starting eventually -- especially when your team is crap and rebuilding anyways.

That's an interesting thought, especially if Cam is kept around and needs another ~half season to heal.

I’m thinking more like drafting a rookie QB in the 1st round and sitting him behind Eli next year. Would probably be cheaper than Cam’s 19m next season and you know that he will be healthy. There are so many FA QBs this offseason. Many guys will be in a different jersey.

Wow, a healthy player looked better than an injured one? Color me shocked. 
 

Also, Cam played at a top 5 level in 2018  before his shoulder started falling off

Top 5 my damn asss. Cam was throwing fuggn dump offs to CMC and screens to Moore/Curtco. That’s why his completion percentage looked so good. Watch the games and quit reading stats. Rookie

      Interesting: Former CAR RB Mike Davis Harshly Criticizes McCaffrey, Calls Him "Selfish as Poo"

      By CRA · Posted

      Mike Davis is like yeah, why would these coaches expect me to watch film on our next opponent if I'm playing good.  Yeah, I really don't pay attention to a lot of stuff around me if I'm doing good.   also Mike Davis, how dare they give all the reps to CMC.  from just listening to that interview, I think Mike Davis likely was often in Mike Davis' way and he can't comprehend that aspect.  Even his story of why he hated people.....was weird.  He hated Steve Spurrier because Spurrier was like hey Mike, Marcus Lattimore left...and we need you to step up into that role/void and be more for us.   And Mike Davis was like, can you believe that motha trucka!! Nah Steve.  Just give me the ball and leave me alone (paraphrasing it all obviously but that was the gist).

      Unless he's 1,000%, just sit him an extra week at this point to let him get his legs back under him. I want to see him out there as much as the next guy, but this was a serious thing and I'd rather wait an extra week than put him out one day too early and risk something going wrong, play the long game for once.

      God, these posts are really starting to piss me off If we're relying on Moore, Idzik, and Canales to carry that weight, then we're royally screwing over our young WR room.  It's not that those guys can't help with some of it, but these young promising WRs are going to miss out on a lot of learning that can only be provided by the vets on the team.   You do realize that coaches spend ZERO time in the locker room, right?   They are only in there just before games and at halftime, but the rest of the week, they have their own locker room, they only spend time with the players on the field and in the film room.  There is soooooo much time that you're leaving unaccounted for where players are working together to get better. Players are constantly talking about their game and how they can improve while they're in the locker room.  If you think career long special teamer David Moore is going to be able to carry that water in the locker room, then you're sorely and woefully mistaken. Even beyond that, if a coach pulls a player aside to give advice between series, that still means there are 4-5 other WRs who aren't getting individual advice, where that's normally a time a vet like Thielen is going over with them what he's seeing out there and how they can do X, Y, or Z to do A, B, or C better on the next drive.
