So next years qb class is way better, and you wanna take a chance on a qb this year when the potential for bust is much higher on these qbs in this class. Especially with the coaching and culture we currently have. Just take OL in draft and keep picks next for year. Leave these 2022 qbs alone. 

The Panthers don't think this year's class is inferior. And I believe they are set on taking a quarterback this year.

It's not what I want to do either, but it seems to be what they want.

Maybe that’s what they want everyone to think? I don’t think Panthers are that smart but maybe just maybe!

If your old friend called you trying to buy your house for half of it's market value you'd probably be kinda pissed at him for trying to rip you off. Just saying.

I wouldn't expect anybody in their position to take the first offer, but I would expect them to negotiate.

That's kind of what I'm hoping for but I don't expect it either.

Mind you, they effectively smokescreened interest in a quarterback last year, so it's at least possible.

Fug you offers tend to get no response or fug you counters.

If you offer me $200k for my $300k house I'm either going to simply ignore it or counter you at $400k.

I don't agree that this is that kind of offer.

Knowing how our front office works, I do expect them to at least call and talk to the Giants about this.

What kind of offer they'd make? Unknown.

Know how I know you didn't read the report?

The Giants have multiple reasons for doing this, including financial considerations.

Plus I kind of doubt that Joe Schoen is gonna just hang up on an old friend like Dan Morgan and tell him to never call again.

I don't need to read the report, they may want to trade the picks fine. But not for such horrible value. Hey old pal, bend me over and fug me on this trade just because we're old friends! Come on Scot

With #5 on the block I would expect us to call and inquire on that but I doubt we'd have the goal of coming away with #5 AND #7.

Ahh understood. I keep thinking people are talking about what they want, not what they expect, to happen.

When they go to negotiate, I'd expect them to offer the #7 before they'd offer the #5.

But again, that's negotiation.

The Giants know that if Detroit and Houston (both with serviceable QBs and other needs) pass on the QB, then it is likely WillisPickett will be there at #5.  They obviously feel (if they want a QB) they can get one with 5 or 7--or they could just roll with Jones and maybe take Howell in round 2--dunno.  But they know that a move up for a QB is more value than normal--so they are willing to listen.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
