It is the worst kept secret in the league that the Giants are looking desperately to move on from Daniel Jones.
Yeah, JS is experienced enough to know that this wasn't his place to say. He probably should have stayed in his lane with the "here's an answer that's not really an answer" coach/GM speak.
I thought it was just me thinking the giants are drafting a QB in the first round. All the draft sites have them drafting D line or a WR.
Lotta smoke. Daniel Jeremiah, Connor Hughes, and Albert Breer all reported that they have a real desire to trade up. Breer reported that the Giants were actively pursuing conversations with other teams about trading up at the Combine (along with the Raiders doing the same).
All he really did was say that Drew was given a chance to compete for a starting job in New York, and then Drew and a bunch of reporters who were obviously being fed by the NYG front office had to say "No, no, I'm coming in as a backup, Daniel is the guy 100%!"
It’s really free agency much ado about nothing
I... think he probably just liked Howell more and didn't want to pay Lock 5 million after he's been unable to supplant Geno for 2 consecutive seasons. Might as well get a more worthwhile developmental quarterback in here as the backup.
I think we've gotta caveat our takes on young guys, especially ones coming from bad situations. It's all about development and the situation we can put them in (in terms of whether those guys can hit their potential here).
That’s a reasonable position. I do wonder if the drop in draft position is worth any monetary savings of not re-signing Lock. You and i would probably disagree as to whether we think Lock had a real shot to be QB1 but it’s done. BTW I am not a big Lock person, at all.
