OT: 2019 Football Thread: Free Agency and The Draft

[duhmetreE]

What if we both NY teams merged... We'd be good

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

A. Pittsburgh got a third round pick for Brown.
B. Another first round pick
C. Rebuild.
D. Odell is an emotional lesbian
E. Always injured
F. You don’t win with superstar receivers.

Brown is 5 years older than Beckham!

Brown is 5 years older than Beckham!

And they literally had no choice.

Maybe if the giants kept Collins and Odell

Injury prone and a mental midget, oh gee who else we traded recently who is similar? That shit don’t fly in New York. There’s a reason why KP and OBJ didn’t last in New York.

Are we breaking it all down? What the f is the direction? Why is Eli still on the roster? I have no idea what Gettelman is doing.

Insane how Gettleman has done a complete 180 from "this team can be competitive" to "lets burn everything down"

Clearly the Giants are breaking it all down, but now it makes last year's pick even more questionable. They could have had a franchise QB to build around even if they stripped it down. Now, all they have is an amazing RB with their franchise QB one year less in development and a barebones roster.

You take a QB last draft and you could have had him and Odell going out there this season. They cut Eli or he retires and they go out in search of a RB. Look at the market for backs. They could have dumped a truck for Bell like the Jets are trying to do.

Giants are looking at this being a lost season. Another top pick next year and another year on Barkley. He's got a chance to be declining when the team finally is good.

Are they breaking it down? It’s already broken.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Might as well trade Saquon at this point. No use wasting his prime. Jets will give you 3rd OA

B. Another first round pick
C. Rebuild.
[Mod edit]
E. Always injured
F. You don’t win with superstar receivers.

I agree with E and F.

The New York Football Giants are the Edmonton Oilers of the NFL.

I don't say this to be an ass. I have much love for Giants fans. I say it because... its the truth.

 

[RangerBlues]

Outstanding!

 

[duhmetreE]

I know it sucks losing a talent like OBJ but the kid is a cancer. He would have bitched and moaned all season. Toxic. It doesn't excuse the past moves but I would have moved OBJ to the highest bidder.

While this may be true, I feel like there was a lot more to be had than what the Giants received in this deal.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Draft Haskins, and go full youth movement. If Gettlemen decides to stay with a direction for more than 2 months.

 

[duhmetreE]

Who's the worst NFL GM in NY?

Respect what the Browns are doing... Giving Mayfield a solid OL, Landry, Hunt and OBJ. Could be a circus.

Gee if only he had someone to throw to

WRs dont hold that much value... OBJs a primadonna, thats been injured and has a fat contract.... and they got back a decent young safety.

A #17, a 2nd rounder and a starting safety. I think it's fair.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Jesus, not the news I wanted to open my phone to. Beyond livid.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Rebuild means you start fresh. My god is it hard to understand is it literally pointless to have a superstar wide receiver? Get guys who can run routes and catch the ball. You don’t really need star receivers getting paid when the most important facet of football is defense and an OL.. I’m happy hes outta here, he can be Cleveland’s problem.

Agree to disagree. I thought it was a 3rd rounder, not a 2nd.

Shhh don’t try to knock common sense into people, it might be dangerous

They didnt get a 2nd. They got the Browns second #3.
