Sanders and Ward are the two top QB prospects. From my understanding, they're good prospects but the strong consensus seems to be that they are below the Williams/Daniels/Maye tier from last draft.

QBs are a crapshoot so who truly knows but that's what we got so far.
2021 with Lawrence was to be good too. None of the other 4 after Lawrence even had the 5th year option picked up.

Ward, he’s a guy who needs a great OC. He’s more off script type QB than one who can run the system of the team.

The Giants aren’t just bad, they don’t even look like a professional football team.

I watch games from around the league and I see teams moving up and down the field scoring touchdowns, guys making big stops, big turnovers. The Giants don’t do anything well. The only thing Schoen has done well at this point is manage the cap.

Dabes took over a bad 4 win team. 3 years later they are currently a 2 win team on a record 10 game losing streak. Is that improvement?

Stats wise he is having a strong season. Should end up over 100 catches. Did he say something?
No....but the press has been stirring stuff up. for instances, he only had 3 looks yesterday -- and that was late in the game. Seems since Adams came, he's been getting less and less......

Did you happen to catch the Vikes game (or the highlights). That last TD pass from Darnold was unreal.

Davante has only been targeted the last 2 weeks. Wilson may set career highs. The NY media can be horrible though so who knows.

Didn't see the Vikes stats but Darnold has been great. I'm happy for him. The coach really deserves a lot of credit as well. Possible coach of the year.

Sounds like Rodgers wants to come back at this point in time. Says he has already made a ton of money and is willing to take a pay cut.

His Madden rating is gonna be down a lot though....

Honestly I don't hate him coming back depending on the coaching staff. You have Adams, and Cousins and even Darnold aren't gonna be much better.

Draft Milroe. Let him sit for a year and then tailor the offense for him.

-Insert Jets incompetence joke and comment of how they will ruin him-

If the Jets build their Oline any QB will be spoiled with those WR imo.

Been watching the Aaron Rodgers Netflix stuff. Interesting to see Rodgers as a smallish high school QB that nobody wanted. You could root for that guy. I did not know that part of his story. I did remember him doing a college QB skills challenge (he had transferred to Cal) before he was drafted and thinking wow that guy is arrogant. I remember when he was drafted (way later than was expected) he said something like the teams that passed on me will regret it but lots of guys say things like that so that is not a bad thing. I think Rodgers is a complex guy. I can see why people get turned off by him and also why some really like him.
