Daniel Jones — Hypothetical

Reports of Giants being extremely interested in Herbert who is the “top QB on their board” along with a new coaching staff. Yes DG drafted Jones last year and it’s 99.99% likely that they stick with him, but let’s say hypothetically they want to move on from Jones and take Herbert...

 

Would you be interested in Daniel Jones? What would you be willing to give up? 7 overall? He did show a ton of promise last year with no weapons outside of Barkley and a sh*t OL... Yeah it’s not gonna happen but still an interesting discussion.

 

I personally wouldn’t trade more value for him than the equivalent of a mid to late first round pick. 7 overall would be too much for me.

You don't draft a QB at #5 overall if the guy you just drafted last year at #6 overall actually "showed a ton of promise".

In reality, I think this is probably just a comically bad attempt to drum up a trade market for #5 to move down a few spots and still land one of the top OT prospects.

That’s very likely the case but there is a brand new HC there.

Hayell no. A third at best. They probably wouldn’t take that, but I wouldn’t offer more. 

If it wasn't for just signing Bridgewater to a stupid deal, I'd happily send them #38. Jones is a helluva lot better (and cheaper) than Bridgewater. He threw for 24 TDs as a rookie in 12 starts than Teddy has ever thrown in a season (that number is 14 by the way).

I guess you’re not wrong, I just don’t see him as a guy to build around. I put him on a similar level as Teddy, based on what little I’ve seen.  Maybe I’m wrong though, I didn’t watch a lot of Giants games

Teddy is not our QB in 3 years. He's fine for now because, believe it or not, we're not going to win the SB this year... shocking, I know. 

But I would rather have every pick (even trading down to get more) to build our O-line and entire defense, so that when we do get our QB of the future, we actually can protect him and not have to play from behind every game.  Lawrence or Fields, come and play on your feet, not on your back.  Teddy can be our Alex Smith, and Justin Fields can be our Mahomes.

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
