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.

    • That he gets worse while at the same time getting more exposure is just typical.
    • And, yes, I've been a slow boil, but watching continually watching shitty displays of football for weeks has me frustrated.  
    • Bryce just didn't maximize Hunter Renfrow's skills. ***rant incoming*** But this isn't just about Bryce Young mistiming passes to Renfrow so bad that he's going to get Renfrow killed or hurt, this is also about incompetentence by Dave Canales. Renfrow can still play. He's putting DBs in a blender out there---making them play twister at the top of routes to keep up with him, and dumb Dave has the nerve to cut him. How about putting Hunter in the best position to help the damned offense by appreciating his skill set, DC? You're letting Bryce's apparent inability to make an accurate throw, or at least his timidity to push the ball down the damned field cloud your judgment and miscalculate talent---or maybe just miss on talent just as much as Bryce misses passes due to playing pussified football. It's fúcking unacceptable.  Speaking of misjudgment, I don't know if it's Dan Morgan or Canales, but Eijiro Evero is not the business at DC. I have said a few times that his scheme is not conducive to run-stopping efficiency. Hell, and after watching some clips of plays, now I absolutely know why. The gaps are at least half open before the play even fúcking starts. You are setting the opposition's RBs up for success with too much damned space at the line and in the second level. If our guys are taken out in these areas---at the line and in the second level---then the defense is screwed because it must rely on the safeties to cover too much ground to make the tackle. At least put Ransom in who is motivated to seek and destroy if you're going to effectively leave the safeties on an island.  And speaking of rookies, get our two new defensive ends more snaps to see if we can't generate more of a pass rush. For all the good the continued sorry display of defense that you're putting out for fan's to see (Ejiro, Dave and Dan), you may as well get the rookies generously involved. Fúck that money we gave second-rate (maybe second-rate) vets, we need a damned spark getting after the QB. Watch it, it's just another breakdown of the sh¡t we were subjected to last week. I say this with all respect: Fúck you, Dave! Fúck you, Dan! Learn how to run a fúcking franchise. Maximize the players, regardless of what you think you're supposed to do by the book. Cut the dead weight before another season is lost and fans lose interest in September. EE is "Ew!" Or for emphasis "EEw!" /end rant
