I’ve decided I want joe to go to the Giants - great run game, good WRs, NFC, I could see him doing well there. They should draft a QB, trade for joe, let joe play out his career for 2 more years, boom
I think the Giants keep Eli one more year

Flacco’s personality is why i have a sentimental attachment to this “era” of the ravens, he is far from boring, the national media just doesn’t know it.
When I heard that we went to McDonald's after winning SB MVP, I knew right then he was a real one.

Given that they didn’t draft a qb in 2018 (as good as Saquon is) and kept Eli for 2018 too I think it’s quite clear they are stupid
In retrospect I think that was the right move for this season. The only QB in that draft I'd take over Barkley is probably Baker, and he went first.

from sheer positional value im taking 4 of those 5 qbs ahead of saquon albeit part of that is knowing that there's no clear qb options in the 2019 draft class (but tbf we did kinda know that would be the case last year too)

They honestly may have made the best possible pick. I thought it was stupid at first, but in hindsight Saquon is a dominant force, a complete game changer, someone you can build an offense around.

Meanwhile Darnold is meh. Allen is bad. Rosen looks bad (before everyone comes at me for saying that, I’m not one for excuses. He’s seemingly everyone’s love child here and idc if he’s on a shit team, he’s still playing bad. Still plenty of time to improve and I think he will anyway)

But as of right now, the Giants taking Saquon looks like a pretty good move. And I hate high draft picks on RBs.

“Positional value” doesn’t mean shit if the players are shit.

Yeah, I don't think anyone can fault the Giants for taking Saquon. He's already looking like one of the best RBs in the league and has basically carried that Giants offense all season. Even though the value of taking a RB in the first round has drastically lowered in recent years, Saquon has all-time great potential.

I still think the best move for the giants would’ve been to get a kings RansoM in a trade back. They could’ve gotten a top 10, a 2nd top 10, and probably the same haul next year. That changes a franchise.

I agree, they needed to draft a qb and build around him.

how where they supposed to get 2 top 10 picks in the same draft and not to mention also get 2 1st in next years draft?

that is a very bad trade....
Since when have teams not made bad trades to get a “franchise” qb... call it a bad trade all you want but stupid moves ar made all the time for QBs whether it’s selling the farm to move up in the draft or paying fucktons to mike glennon.

Teams that want to be good dont accept bad trade proposals.

Oh... 2 firsts and 2 seconds isn’t bad at all to move down less than 10 spots lol

Same draft no
Different drafts yes.

Especially when it means passing on a difference maker.

He was surely a cool guy but just didn't bring it on the football field consistently. He was far too inconsistent to be great. I'll miss him once he is cut or traded though... an absolute anti-diva, the opposite of QBs like Rodgers or Roethlisberger.
