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.

    • Same... With the personnel the Niners had, that defense could have been historically good in the right hands. Under Wilks they were certainly good, they didn't quite rise to that level. Honestly, I see Wilks kinda like I see Rivera: fantastic person, decent head coach. Skill wise, phenomenal DB coach, so-so DC. His greatest strength is his leadership. Hard to find many better in that department. In the Xs and Os / execution area though, not as good. Bottom Line: Wilks is the sort of coach that needs a staff that excels in those aspects of the game where he's weaker. But, like Rivera, I don't know that he scouts assistants very well. That as much as anything might be why he's not in the NFL now.
    • Clearly the best outcome for us is a Giants W. A spot or two difference in the 4th round is inconsequential. Just look at the trade value charts. A spot or two at the top of the 1st means a LOT. A spot or two in the mid-rounds? Virtually nothing.
    • Agree. I don't think I have ever heard him say anything positive, at any time, about the Panthers. Best expectation is no mention at all.
