Giants expected to sign Geno Smith

So Geno and Johnson

compete for the backup role? Doesn't make sense.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!

hitdog just hinted at this on the Josh Johnson thread.

I'm fine with it. I've never sweated the Giants backup QB position, except when they wasted a fourth rounder on Nassib.

That's

AcidTest : 3/17/2017 11:45 am : link

why they had to get a long term deal done with JPP, and RIGHT NOW. They had to free up money to sign Geno Smith before he was snatched away by another team.

off QB as a draft possibility (in any round). Smith is young enough they can try and develop for a year.Decide in 2018 if a young QB drafted is better or wait a little longer.

CHEAP - that's all I want in a backup - CHEAP.

Well, I also want a pulse. CHEAP, and with a pulse.

Better be for close to vet minimum.

Exactly. And even if they didn't have Johnson, I'd still ask why they need Geno. Train wreck. No thanks.

Meanwhile, #Giants aren�t done. Geno Smith will take a physical with the team this weekend and if it goes well, is expected to sign Monday

Do they test IQ?

Is there an Eli injury

They are hiding?

At least

NYBEN1963 : 3/17/2017 11:58 am : link

Geno has some starting experience Josh Johnson hasn't even thrown a pass in almost 4 or 5 years in a real game if I'm not mistaken

True, but Geno's passes make you wish he hadn't thrown any in the last five or six years

i sense a JPP throwing Geno in the hot tub moment

idiotsavant : 3/17/2017 12:01 pm : link

T/Come

If he was coming from elsewhere, would we really care?

arcarsenal : 3/17/2017 12:05 pm : link

When have the Jets ever developed a young QB?

I think it's safe to say Smith is probably better than both Nassib AND Johnson and he has more actual NFL experience.

It's really not a big deal and might even be a good signing.

No one is signing Geno Smith as insurance if the starting QB already is damaged goods.

He's Black David Carr.

Dollars are the important thing here

fkap : 3/17/2017 12:05 pm : link

you aren't getting a starting quality QB as a backup unless you draft one. Nassib apparently shit the bed and Johnson isn't all that far behind

Josh McCown reportedly going to the Jets

I don't hate it.

Enzo : 3/17/2017 12:08 pm : link

Compared to some of the other backups we've had behind Eli, this guy might be a step up in quality.

Except Carr...I actually wish Carr was still the back up,good guy very knowledgeable and it was clear that he and Eli had a very good relationship

Geno's line:

20-for-25, 358 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTs, 158.3 Rating

Yeah, bitches.

Well

Atleast we know Odell Beckham isn't the only nut on Giants Drive

Well With Jets Karma

Suburbanites : 3/17/2017 12:21 pm : link

Geno will provide a seamless transition from the Eli era when #10 retires and provide franchise QB like results for the next 10 seasons. Again, I'm coming to this conclusion entirely from a Jets karma angle which makes me very optimistic.

'except when they wasted a fourth rounder on Nassib'...

Torrag : 3/17/2017 12:40 pm : link

...so true.

The starting QB gets punched in the face

averagejoe : 3/17/2017 12:42 pm : link

in the locker room and not a single teammate defends him. This is all we need to know about Geno.

He can run. Apart from that he is a turnover machine with a bad attitude.

Please tell me this is a joke.

I so fucking hated that Nassib pick

Paulie Walnuts : 3/17/2017 12:43 pm : link

we needed a Guard there

Gene should be able to beat out jj

32_Razor : 3/17/2017 12:45 pm : link

Ok with the signing maybe resurrect his career

He's a QB with very bad intangibles...

Torrag : 3/17/2017 12:48 pm : link

...but a solid arm. Not what I'd want in a backup.

Oh God No

Gman11 : 3/17/2017 1:04 pm : link

Sign scrub TE who can't catch to a big contract
Break the bank for a DE who only gets sacks against the worst teams in the league
Sign a head case WR
Now this.
Great.

Geno > Nassib
