1. Well know on Remmers, one way or the other, by this afternoon.
2.were not do nb e on defense. Golden was a big get but we aren't done.
3. Have the Giants made there last trade? Hmmmm
4. I've said this for days. Giants honestly want to win. This year. There on a mission. They believe there better without Beckham then with him. Him not playing at the end of last season was truly the final straw but there's more the media doesn't know
I am intrigued by:
On top of the issues that haven't even been reported.
2. The Giants are bringing Eli back. Always were and promised him they would do all they can to win.
Might as well make him player-GM at this point.
As for Shepard, I think the Tate signing made him expendable and the Giants aren't going to break the bank on him as a free agent.
Since getting another draft pick for him doesn't make much sense with 12 picks already, I'm thinking the Giants go to the Cardinals and offer Shepard and a 4th for Rosen. That way if they aren't going to go up for Murray, I still don't like any of the other QBs in this draft and they are pretty much the same risk/potential as Rosen. In this scenario, you keep all your high picks to fill in the roster with a huge infusion of talent.
Let's pretend that Gettleman is right and the things he is doing improve the team. What QB is going to be available at 10 or 11 next year? Or does that when the real rebuild start?
2 of the top 3 picks this year will absolutely not be taking a QB. The same situation will probably happen next year. Would anyone be surprised if the bills or jets are drafting top 3? Arizona again? Odds are one or multiple teams will be in a position to draft one of the QBs and have no interest to do so — just like the Colts last year.
The Giants will either lose enough to draft their guy or win and give up what it takes to get the QB.
Unfortunately, jtgiants seems to be saying the team won't be getting any QB this offseason. Not Haskins, not Murray, not Rosen. If their plan is to win, at even 8-8 they are likely out of the running for Fromm or Tua, so probably no QB in 2020 either.
He simply said Eli will be the starter.
I say he should be the introductory member.
Most asshats I remember havent been this talkative, forthcoming and definitely not this accurate.

Agreed - Not once did I fetch my Capt Crunch decoder ring! Awesome & good for my heart.

I don't think he's said that. He just said Eli is the starter this year.

Eric, this was his 3:21 a.m. response to Matt's post speculating that they'll either take a QB at 6, trade up for Murray, or trade for Rosen:
On the trade you mentioned. Are the Giants trying to aquire more draft picks or are they trying to acquire players? Thanks
He simply said Eli will be the starter.
Thanks Eric. The conclusions being drawn here are off the charts. I think all of this makes it more likely that they are trying to get a QB (at 6 or higher) this year.
I guess they still could pick a QB at 17 or in the 2nd, but that doesn't jive with DG's stated philosophy.
Definitely disagree with the team is ready to win now, but let's see how the draft unfolds.
The Beckham stuff - culture matters people! Especially in the ultimate team sport.
This is such a copout. Defending Beckham at this point is wrong IMO. We knew how much of a distraction he was before the trade, and with all the ino JTGiants has provided - it really seems like OBJ is a pure ass, plain and simple.
This whole constant of losing is just bad on fans part. Are we saying he hasnt been a constant? We were 25-34 with him in the lineup. Is that not a constnat? Have we had a top tier run game or defense in the last 7-8 years?
The constant has been the team has been terrible on many levels. And yes the QB hasnt been playing near the best in the league - but what group or positions have for us? Sure Beckham has played awesome. But who else? 1 year of barkley? 1 year of Collins? Who else?
Tate signing makes a world more sense with the color that Shepard could be the next one out the door.
2. The Giants are bringing Eli back. Always were and promised him they would do all they can to win. Also don't think Eli lost sleep over losing Beckham. Trust me on that. Privately Beckham blamed his injuries and the losing on Eli. The Giants told Beckham he never plays and causes distractions. Also the biggest game of hos life. Eli was great and Beckham sucked. His act and demands wore thin. On top of the issues that haven't even been reported
3. Beckham's attitude infiltrated teammates. Those guys should rent. Not buy. Hint. Hint
Shepard is next. For everyone wondering why they signed another slot reciever, there's your answer.

You have not helped with our sleep or work productivity, but I am good with that. Keep it coming!

Reading is fundamental. He never said the Giants wouldn't geta QB, just that Eli is the starter. I now actually am firmly in Eli's corner. Give him one last shot without the BS, some solid players at WR (solid, smart, team guys) and let Barkley be your superstar..
What is the harm of going for it this year while strengthening the Oline, defense and rebuilding the culture? The next young QB benefit from all this.

Has to be for players... If DG is shipping out our 2 starting WR's, SOMEONE has to run routes!! lol.. And this isnt a sure fire WR draft (my opinion)
Stop looking at things through a vaccuum and understand they are fluid.
Pat Kirwin spoke about this at length Tuesday and Wednesday on Sirius.
Ok.
OBJ....4 years of alot of flash but it didnt translate to winning.
We saw what the team did without him with just a passable OL the last 3 of 4 games...27,40 and 35 points. New identity with Barkley.
Remmers will be a nice additional peace if he decides to join us.

Jt can clarify, but I"m taking what he said that "no matter what, Eli is the QB" to mean, even if they get a QB in the draft or trade, Eli is starting. To me, I think it's understood if it's a rookie coming in. Rosen is the one which you'd need a qualifier because he already has started in the league, so even if he's here, he's sitting behind Eli. I listened to the Giants Insider podcast on the way into work today and they were saying that Gettleman liked Rosen last year.
Also, if you go back to my long thread yesterday about Murray, I think the Giants are going to get a QB this draft because otherwise they will be walking right into that QB hell that Gettleman said (ie- a team wins 7,8,9 games and are too far back to empty the farm to trade up to get a top QB). The Giants are picking 6. They are right in that range right now.
If the Giants don't see Haskins as good enough to get at 6 (which I believe jt said), I see a handful of possibilities
1) Use their draft picks to trade up high to get Murray in picks 1-3, since he will never get past the Raiders at 4
2) Pick a defensive player at 6 and watch what happens with Haskins/Lock and Jones (barf, I don't want him). If they keep sliding and are in striking distance, they trade their 17 and other draft picks to move up a few spots to snag one of them.
3) Trade for Rosen (assuming Murray is the pick for Arizona).
The Giants simply cannot come out of this draft without a QB. It's all there for them. They have the picks to move up to get him in the first round. Eli is still the starter so you have the "KC Model" in place. And even the Giants realize they need to find his replacement, even if they are trying to send him out a winner on a competitive team.

Ramsey may be more of a headache than he's worth.

I have been admittingly very critical of Eli, in that he no longer sees the field & locks into his 1st read... If new WR's who run the intended/good routes & make the adjustments that Eli is reading... I will GLADLY eat my hat.
I totally agree.
And that is totally absurd.
Where is Fat-Mara in Charlotte, btw, to address this?
A lot of this is like Nostradamus - you can make the hint fit the narrative you want. Things can change even if an asshat could come right out and beat us over the head with info, but there were some very good clues (and a few jumps to conclusion regarding the clues).
The OL was much more a project than could be fixed in one fell swoop. We hoped the changes we made were enough but they werent. An immobile QB like Eli will not look good if he is getting bigtime pressure through the A gaps (few QBs for that matter would look too good either)
Ramsey is cut from the same Douche Cloth as OBJ.. No thx

I see what you mean, thanks for the clarification.
Overall, I've liked DG's moves this offseason, I just would be pretty concerned if they didn't make a play for QB even if they were to sit behind Eli.
Just guessing but I think 2nd CB is probably the next highest priority. Need a vet alongside JJ. Like when we picked up Sam Madison to complement Webster and Ross as a rookie was our 3rd CB
