[@dilwalecricket]

From outside looking in it’s so easy to put everything on DJ especially since he got his contact. As a giants fan we need to look at facts not feelings Since coming to the league he has been the most sacked quarterback in the NFL. Let me know if this sounds like a well run organization with great support staff Jones has played under three different head coaches and four different offensive coordinators while having very limited offensive weapons and playing behind a typically really suspect offensive line. DJ’s career remind me of Alex smith and how with the 49ers he had many different head coaches and 8 different offensive coordinators in his first 7 years. The issue with this is the QB never has time to grow in the same system and have multiple offseason of adding more to the playbook

[@vincentoravec261]

Youre not wrong with this take. In the right organization DJ could have been a poor man's Josh Allen, which would have been pretty great.

[@garethjohnson8579]

The Giants have bigger issues than QB. They spent draft picks and FA money on the o-line and wr group and they haven't panned out fully. Thats the problem. At 6 id go either best o-line or WR and that's without even talking about the defence. As a Cowboys fan i honestly thought the Giants would be tough games last year and they really weren't

[@larrylindgren9484]

There are some really good OL. But none are worth the 6th pick. You could trade back and still get a great OL. There are 3 very good WRs. One with be there at 6. If you keep 6 you have to draft one. If you trade back, you draft a OL.

[@vernonbandy2597]

Of course the y weren't. QB is definitely the biggest concern, but one of many. The two backups put up better performances than the starter who hasn't panned out in 5 years, including a game where he decided to go helmet first into a Dallas defender which was his first neck injury

[@mykofreder1682]

You draft top 8 or so you get premium, you get beyond 10 you get premium because someone made a mistake, because you do not pass on a Hall of Famer regardless of position if you are not targeting a specific position. Going from 4 to 6, with so many QBs picked, probably will change nothing for the team picking 4, where the guy you get at 11 or 12 may get a 2nd contract but probably is not a game changer. If they truly want a QB they should not allow someone drafting double digits to jump them to 4. And get some honest bids for your spot so you know what teams are offering so you can formulate a competitive bid, you don't want to be the Bears bidding against yourself for Trubisky but you want to put a bid in that will make the 4th pick think if they are trading back beyond premium draft positions.

[@paulmysliborski4832]

Well said.

[@timdejoseph1595]

There is no QB worth trading up for when you are a team with this many holes. I really dont get you guys that are so desperate for a change of scenery at QB simply for the change of scenery.

[@mintdragon9548]

Not a Giants fan, but they definitely need to build up their team with the front office slotting positions/contract length and determine position prioritization for whatever team they want to build. Everything feels like they just threw everything in a blender assuming their previous high draft picks would all be 10 year superstars... and any misses caused the jenga stack to start to fall over. Barkley is gone, first contract stars leaving, free agents just collecting their bag, and the team doesn't have anything to build around since 2015 or so when the wheels started falling off. Really feel for Giant fans, quite the mess right now. Even the new head coach is over his head and coordinators and position coaches don't want to coach for him. 🤷‍♂

[@gcminnovations3422]

Just need the right offensive line and a defense that can put pressure like these past 2 seasons .

[@tvtda1]

its complicated because if you can find an elite upgrade at QB? by all means, do so. i'm not even saying all 6 QB's at the top don't have the potential to be an elite player. They all do have a punchers chance. i feel like the only difference with me is i believe you have just as good a shot Developing DJ as you do nailing a rookie QB pick. He is objectively talented. people get too out of pocket focused on his production without context. if ur a good coach, could you please develop the 6'5, 230 pound nice guy with elite mobility you already paid? please? DJ is talented and skilled and smart and a good person. thats literally every aspect of evaluating the position tbh. i understand DJ may potentially be a tease but... i would feel differently if he was just hopeless and a lost cause but he earned his extension winning a playoff game. people need to be more reasonable about this.

[@ibopwebop]

I understand that he's had a bad oline but DJ was clearly over drafted and has had flashes of being good but it hasnt't been consistent. that's his biggest issue.

[@winethirsty]

More Simms Less Florio

[@DD-sr9xm]

Giants fan living in CO here. Big Blue do NOT fall in love with Drew Lock. You are going to be enticed by the big arm, decent running and scrambling, decent size, good kid BUT he doesn’t have the head for QB in the NFL. He throws short when they need long, he throws ping when they just need short. He hangs onto the ball when he should throw it away and vice versa. He is a heart breaker. Peyton Manning spent a month watching film every day exclusively with Drew and it didn’t help.

[@MrMegaGamerMan]

Stand up and cheer for Shelby's?

[@peteg2715]

Daniel Jones is easily better than Lock. No way Lock would beat him out in a competition. But if they draft a rookie QB, they might start Lock over Jones early just to not risk getting Jones hurt & having to pay him more $$. Lock sucks tho, he's an INT machine

[@roshan2865]

Since they gave up a 2nd rnd pick for Burns, they can't get QB, outside CB, and outside WR. So I think 1st rnd qb is out.

The New York Giants will struggle regardless of who they pick, but if their front office and coaching staff aimlessly waddle into next offseason with a mediocre veteran like Danny Dimes or Drew Lock, there is no shot John Mara will have the patience to keep them employed.

[@joefatalooch8057]

Here’s the rub…If DJ shows no ability to throw the ball downfield and the Giants are stuck with him, they will regret not picking a QB. It’s risky to put all your eggs in the DJ or backup basket. If a QB slips or they really like one that is available I say they will draft a QB. Look at the other positions they have added. Other that a WR, they have done well. WRs are risky too so they are not an automatic especially if DJ can t get the ball to them.

[@mariogallego5513]

Closet rod? Hanging pole? Yeah idk what that bar is called

[@CJStew06]

The rack? Would be my best guess

[@user-iq6cc3df3l]

If the Giants have the sixth pick I think all the potentially great quarterbacks will be gone. You have Caleb then Jayden and after tat there’s a pretty big falloff although I think JJ McCarthy might be good to very good. I wouldn’t bet it either way with JJ although he did win a Championship I think. But I’ve never really been sold on Jones. Maybe where the Giants went wrong was giving Jones that extension. I can’t remember what the quarterback situation was like though with regard to talent when the Giants gave him that deal. He had just come off a road playoff win against the Vikings although, well, it was just the Vikings and they always lose on the playoffs. Florio ;-)

[@NathanDean79]

Sam Howell was supposed To be a top 5 pick by many people. I’m on record saying that Trevor Lawrence wasn’t a generational talent and would amount to much in the NFL. So far I’ve been right. He had 1 good season out of 3.

[@cmgpower977]

Wr in the 1st, Pennix or Nix in 2nd????

[@joshuabunkers1494]

I wish I could tolerate Mike Florio's high pitched voice because I love Chris Simms.

[@NathanDean79]

The Giants have a good head coach. If they fire Daboll now or next year then I’m not going to follow the Giants anymore. They need a good OC to work with Dabol and the need a kick ass DC. Who is their DC? Is it still Wink Martidale? He is good. Oh and I forgot about Isiaha Simmons. You want to talk about a freak show he is that! 6’4’’ 240 lbs and runs 4.39!! They just need to use him properly. He is good as a SS, Nickel CB, and on 3 rd downs I would have him At OLB and rushing the passer a lot. To just stick him at MLB or even OLB is doing a disservice.

[@wallydollarlive]

They might move up to 3 and get MHJ, if DJ doesn’t improve this year he’ll be cut and that big money can be used on a Free Agent in 25… Dak maybe?

[@deadondave9251]

All anyone has to do is watch the games. If you only go by tape and measure , then the combine , you're going down a losing road. I have Penix as my #2 guy. Now , he might not be , but he's a better #2 then Maye. Watching him play , throw , and scramble , especially under pressure (which you can count on in the real NFL) , you can see more upside. I hope he goes to the same team that drafts Odunze.

[@cityhawk]

In other words, if they can’t get Maye or Daniels they’re not reaching for McCarthy. It’s likely Harrison Jr., Nabers, or Alt. Plain and simple.

[@KingPolo985]

Daniel Jones is going into his 6th season. He’s 22-36-1 as a starter, has never won the division, & snuck in the playoffs one year at 9-7. Giants may have a lot of holes in their roster, but QB might be their biggest one

[@user-iq6cc3df3l]

Nice stats. From what I remember a team - the Giants? - overreached during that draft with Jones as a pretty high pick. I certainly don’t think he’s a lousy quarterback but if you look at his skillset I think there’s nothing where you say, “Wow.” He’s s decent passer, he’s a decent runner, he’s a decent quarterback. Decent.

[@garethjohnson8579]

I don't think he is. Ok he not a top tier QB but in a good team he'd be serviceable. I think there are soo many holes in this team throwing a rookie QB in to it wouldn't fix anything. Especially the ones that will be available. The top 3 QBs will most likely be gone, so you'll have Nix, Penix or McCarthy who will not work well on a bad team

[@theshogunblaze3656]

unfortunately the team around Danny Dimes is buns so they might as well build up the team for Arch Manning in a year or 2

[@dilwalecricket]

You forgot some stats Jones has played under three head coaches and four offensive coordinators while having limited weaponry and playing behind a typically suspect offensive line and being the most sacked QB since entering the league That’s with his escaping skills. I have been a giants fan for a long time and instead of blaming DJ for every how about we actually look at how the team has failed him too

[@johnnymason2460]

​@@dilwalecricketYou are now making excuses. Good quarterbacks can overcome bad teams and bad coaching. Daniel Jones is not a good quarterback. It's time to move on. Also, Drew Lock is definitely not the answer. He's actually worse. They may need to consider Jimmy G. At least he has experience and is serviceable. Otherwise, the Giants will have a new coach(Bill Belicheck) and general manager in 2025.

[@NathanDean79]

It seems like everyone is in love with Maye because of his body. He is 6’4’’ 228. Joe Burrow is 6’4’’ 221 when he came out. That’s a difference of 7 pounds. Josh Allen has an Amazing body. Big Ben did too. Yea Maye like Burrow have good football bodies but it’s nothing crazy.

caleb williams or jaden daniels would be an upgrade for the giants at the qb position.... but both guys will be gone. so that would be very surprising if they draft another one in the 1st... if 4 qbs already gone in the top 5, means the giants will get a better player, wr, oline whatever

[@regismonkton]

I won't be surprised if NYG trades down with their first pick. Then I would think they would take a WR with their new first pick and a DB with their second pick. They might draft a QB, but I wouldn't be surprised if their owner was saying they want to draft a QB to cause teams to think they'd have to give up more for NYG's first pick.

[@jamesspanglet6702]

If the first 4 picks are QB's there may not be an opportunity to trade back.

It’s simple, the GIANTS aren’t a good team, they need more good players. Take the best player available at #6 and move forward.

So the Giants trade this year's 2nd rounder and next year's as well, to move up to #4 and take JJ McCarthy who basically gets redshirted and doesn't really impact the 2024 season, and obviously neither does the 2024 2nd round pick which was used in the trade. The Giants 2024 season has no offensive allstars except Left Tackle Andrew Thomas and the Giants end up as a 6 win team, and Joe Schoen and Daboll are both fired to make room for Bill Belichick who gets to be GM and Head Coach. In the end, drafting QB in 2024 didn't buy Schoen/Daboll one extra second. Or, the current regime could draft a stud WR at #6 and another offensive weapon at #47 and end up as an 8-9 win team and save their jobs. Hmmm. What to do.

Or maybe check this out. Maybe they tied 3 million in incentives to Drew Lock for playing time BECAUSE Daniel Jones has been hurt A LOT over the last 2 years!! That’s obviously what it’s for. Because the Giants know there is a strong possibility that Jones can’t make it through an entire fucking year.

[@tyleraguilar2474]

As a Giants fan I pray we don’t get Bill Belicheck if we have a losing season. He will ruin our franchise for even longer

[@tornado154]

hey florio why don't the giants just sign kaepernick? that's your solution to everything hahahah

[@henrywallacesghost5883]

Danny Dimes is the Giants past,present and future. He will have a solid year and the Giants will re-sign him and continue in mediocrity for years to come.

Chris wants Maye to be bad sooooo bad it’s weird

[@vernonbandy2597]

Okay, I love Phil Simms and I try to respect Chris but he really does come off as completely clueless a lot. Locke is going to push Daniel Jones? Tyrod did that, and won. He showed more ability than Jones and that helped Jones out in no way at all. Drafting a QB could get them fired, but starting and overpaying the division's worst QB won't?

Remember when Simms said Zach Wilson was the clear no.1 QB in that draft? I think Maye will be fine.

Like Simms dying on a hill with Jones😂😂😂

I just don’t understand how someone who knows football to his level can’t see how BAD dj is I don’t get it😭

[@tfundermann]

The fact he dies on the Jones hill at the same time as being adamant Maye will be a failure is always fun to watch. Chris is a good analyst a lot of the time, but he sure is stubborn with certain things and they blind him like crazy. Not saying I know better on Maye, but when 75% of the analysts think he is a top 3 QB in the draft I tend to think something might be there. Then Chris comes in saying he is a 3rd rounder that needs to sit for 3 years. But he also thought Kellen Mond was a great QB prospect, Matt Corral was the best QB in his class (now in the UFL), Josh Rosen as the 2nd best in his class, etc. Just like everyone else he has preferences and they cloud his judgement and misses more than he hits. As is the draft analyst business.

[@ibekingape]

I kinda get his take. He thinks the offense is so poor with the horrible offensive line and pathetic receiving options that Jones isn't the biggest problem and a new qb will be doomed without the pieces, especially when they won't be picking up a top gamechanging qb @meechrawls

[@Drop_Takers_Golf]

Jones isn’t the biggest problem I agree but he is a problem at the most important position and I don’t want Maye either another ACC quarterback who doesn’t process fast enough that’s a no also. I would be more upset if we reach and draft a quarterback just to say we did it.

[@itsabulldogsworld]

Simms really don't wanna let DJ go 🤣 it's over the guy got 3 major injuries in 2 years. And he's GARBAGE.

[@richfarfugnuven6308]

This QB class will probably go down as one of the biggest flops in history. This isn't 1983. I will laugh when Spencer Rattler is the only 1 still playing 16 years from now(as a career backup)...

[@beefoneeto]

Florio is way off.The incentives are due to if Jones isn't ready and Lock has to start.Contingent on playing time contingent on Jones not being ready.

[@RoryKMusic]

Na they’re doing it because they know they’re going sit DJ as soon as the playoffs are out of reach (which will be early is DJ starts 😂) DJ is reported to be on schedule if not ahead of it
