So, after 3 games,

Doomster : 11/30/2015 1:56 pm
has JPP been worth 2.7M?

4 tackles, 2 assists, 0 sacks.....

A difference maker?
He's giving top effort  
Bold Ruler : Mod : 11/30/2015 1:58 pm : link
Saw him running across the line to make tackles. More than I can say for most the Giants out there. I was a huge critic of JPP this off season, but I'd say he is going 100% right now and that's worth a lot.
No  
Funkhouser : 11/30/2015 1:58 pm : link
and he was completely shut down yesterday by a really good tackle.
Lets see  
KWALL2 : 11/30/2015 2:01 pm : link
Before he came back we are trying to win the division with the worst pass rushers in the NFL.

Was there something better out there to improve the team?

In his first game back he had an impact. He was good in game 2.

Not so good yesterday vs a guy he usually dominates.

I don't know how anybody could be down on JPP back on the team. He's helping and hopefully he gets better playing with the club.
He was still drawing double teams  
TomTom : 11/30/2015 2:02 pm : link
yesterday as well. Other players need to step up when that happens.
The run defense is markedly improved since he returned  
regulator : 11/30/2015 2:02 pm : link
and his presence in occupying blockers, setting the edge, and just generally playing "stout" was desperately needed on this defense.

With that said, as of now, he is not an elite pass rusher, but he should be able to generate some more production as the season rolls along.

JPP, even at a fraction of his old self, is a very welcome addition on this talent-deprived DL.
JPP is going all out...  
TheEvilLurker : 11/30/2015 2:03 pm : link
Ayers doesn't seem to be worth the money, and Moore has potential if he could get his head straightened out.
Its 1.9mm through three games  
ron mexico : 11/30/2015 2:03 pm : link
yes, I think he has been worth that

He's making a difference out there  
JonC : 11/30/2015 2:04 pm : link
but he's not a $15M per season talent right now, no.
yesterday was his worst game of the 3  
giants#1 : 11/30/2015 2:05 pm : link
and he was still probably our best DL. No sacks against NE, but he absolutely had a big impact on that game.

He's had an impact for sure  
Mike in Long Beach : 11/30/2015 2:07 pm : link
However, this defense isn't good enough to stop a 3rd & 6 because JPP caused a rushed throw on 2nd & 6.

We need it to be 3rd and 16 because JPP unloaded on a quarterback on 2nd down.
JPP  
LakeGeorgeGiant : 11/30/2015 2:09 pm : link
is drawing double teams, he has had a positive impact. He is not an elite player at this point.

Ayers is finished in blue imo. 30 years old, often injured, low production.

Question is, might this be his ceiling? Asking for opinions, not making a premature assessment..
I like JPP  
pjcas18 : 11/30/2015 2:12 pm : link
and I'd re-sign him, but it would need to be more like a 5 year 30M contract now.

you want to see 15M per season dominance, look what JJ Watt has done in HOU since they were embarrassed by MIA.

last 4 games: 7.5 sacks, 20 tackles, 3 for a loss (not counting sacks).

all wins and his team hasn't allowed more than 17 points in any of the 4 games.

if you want to get paid like a star you need to have an impact like one IMO.

It might but I think with a full offseason to regain conditioning, strength, refine technique he can be better. The question is how much and how much will his camp compromise in order to re-sign.

I was wrong regarding what they'd pay him in 2015, so ...
Including his 1.5m guarantee  
BillT : 11/30/2015 2:15 pm : link
He's earned about $2.15m so far. He's making $215,000/game. Doesn't seem he'll get the "80% of all defensive plays" bonus or the sack bonus worth $5.5m together.
There is really no point to throw around the $15mm per season figure  
ron mexico : 11/30/2015 2:16 pm : link
he is not making that this year (even prorated) and I have a hard time believing he will be looking for that figure going forward.

It's exactly what he's making this year, pro-rated, if he reaches the incentives.
he was invisible  
fkap : 11/30/2015 2:18 pm : link
yesterday.

I'd have expected a gradual increase in impact, but it's been the opposite. opposition probably has a lot to do with it, but he hasn't done anything in the last 2 games to warrant excitement.

IF he comes down to reality with his demands, I'd re-sign him, but he isn't anything resembling a 10 mil a year player (and that was far lower than what he saw himself at on July 3rd).
I would not be surprised..  
LakeGeorgeGiant : 11/30/2015 2:19 pm : link
If some team takes a gamble and throws a big contract his way..12 per?

How much would the Giants risk?
True in a sense, but  
JonC : 11/30/2015 2:20 pm : link
NYG was willing to construct a contract that would have paid him in that ballpark on a prorated basis, wasn't it built to max out around $8.7M for 8 games? Sorry if that's incorrect, I'm doing a lot of juggling this season with work.
pj  
JonC : 11/30/2015 2:21 pm : link
Thanks, so I'm not battling senility yet.
Motivated to get paid  
Go Terps : 11/30/2015 2:28 pm : link
We're probably seeing the best football he'll ever play for the rest of his life.
Yes Jon  
LakeGeorgeGiant : 11/30/2015 2:28 pm : link
$8.71 if all incentives reached.
The max he could get, for 8 games,  
Doomster : 11/30/2015 2:39 pm : link
is 7.385M.....

Hard to believe a gjuy who was invisible yester, had no tackles or assists, the previous game, is somehow earning his money....

Like I said before, he is like the ghost of Beason....beason comes here, plays against a string of backup qb's, and looks great when you compare him to the like so of JW and Herz....

Must be the same with JPP.....he does nothing, but he does look good out there with pressures, when you compare him to the other studs in the defensive line....
IF incentives are reached  
fkap : 11/30/2015 2:44 pm : link
do we really have any idea of whether he's on pace to reach all his incentives?

if he is on pace, they were really low level incentives, as he really hasn't accomplished much. Been active for each game. played a decent percentage of plays. that's about it.
The number I posted  
LakeGeorgeGiant : 11/30/2015 2:48 pm : link
is for all incentives. I have no idea what those incentives are or how many can still be reached.
he's in shape and active, but still hasn't shown if he can tackle  
Victor in CT : 11/30/2015 2:49 pm : link
with that oven mitt
you can see  
area junc : 11/30/2015 2:53 pm : link
he isn't ready to use his hand yet. he avoids "mixing it up" unless he absolutely has to. i think he's in a lot of pain.
realistically u aren't going to beat trent williams in that condition

AcidTest : 11/30/2015 3:08 pm : link
is another position that needs a big upgrade next season.

yes we do.

he is guaranteed 1.5mm
He can earn another 1.5mm by being active 6 games which he should make

He has been earning between 200k and 250k a week by being in 75->80% of the snaps

he hasn't gotten any sacks that pay 50k per and he is unlikely to hit the the 7.5 sack bonus which pays 860k not the 10.5 sack bonus which will make the contract worth the full prorated tender amount of 15.5mil

He is not going to earn 7.385 million.

For him to get paid the full amount he will need to get 10.5 sacks. Thats not gonna happen.

Not that you will read and comprehend this and stop posting incorrect figures in the future
He did draw..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 11/30/2015 3:19 pm : link
two holding penalties.

JonC : 11/30/2015 3:21 pm : link
I don't disagree he won't earn the full value, but that wasn't the point I was making, in fairness.
it wasn't the point  
pjcas18 : 11/30/2015 3:39 pm : link
anyone had when using the $15M number, but people like to rant about stuff so whatever rant on mr mexico.
I think it s premature to grade JPP  
Reb8thVA : 11/30/2015 3:58 pm : link
He's relearning how to play football in a different way. He has to get rid of old habits and learn new ones. Sometimes for an amputee its difficult to relearn even the simplest of tasks.

I can see a scenario next year where the Giants and JPP agree to a reasonable contract with opt outs for JPP should he prove that he is returning to his old form.

fkap : 11/30/2015 4:02 pm : link
thanks.
I hadn't seen the incentive/salary breakdown. Basically, as long as he's able to play, he's going to get 7 + mil. if he gets a bunch of sacks, he gets another mil. if he gets a lot of sacks, he'll double his payday.

7 mil looks likely, unless he gets injured and/or is put on inactive. the extra mil for sacks a maybe. the bonus for 10 sacks, not so likely.

That seems like a fair, but generous deal. fair, because if he plays he gets paid most of his per game amount of the franchise tag. generous, because it really doesn't make him do anything but play well enough to stay on the active list. it does protect the team in case he washes out and can't play.

Ayers was solid yesterday vs the pass.
I think he had a sack  
giantgiantfan : 11/30/2015 4:37 pm : link
against the Patriots, but the Patriots had a penalty that and the Giants elected to take the penalty. Which probably pissed JPP off pretty good. I was too miserable during the Washington game to focus on him.

No, you are not reading that right

If he is able to play every game and get 70+ % of the snaps he will earn roughly 4.4 - 5.0 million

*1.5mil guaranteed off the bat
*1.5mil for playing in 6 games
*200k a game for getting 75% of the snaps of 250k a game for 80% or of the snaps for a total of 1.4-1.75mil

And he gets 50k per sack

He will not hit the sack totals required to bring the contract value over 7 mil



My opinion is  
Ginny Poo : 11/30/2015 9:18 pm : link
JPP has been explosive.
