Please add what you think
Fix the lines first. Live with Jones another year. Wilson isn’t taking this team anywhere.
Wilson has over 4,600 yards rushing in his career. Are you giving Jones the edge there because he is younger?
Then there's the price tag. Has anyone (including the greats like Brees and Rogers) won once they were carrying a thirty million dollar price tag?
I dislike his attitude. He forces a thirty million salary per and then complains that Seattle is not putting enough talent around him There's a lack of7 consciousness about that whining that I don't want here - esp. when one consders the additional millions this spoiled, whiney kid is making from commercials as he and Rogers bombard us with insurance ads.
No thanks, one of my all time least liked players who has never demonstrated that he could carry an average team past ta bank.
Jones a 6 in pocket awareness? No way. More like 0 or 1
More like 15 months probably.
under/over 20%

Have you seen what Seattle has done with their draft picks? It basically gives us a run for our money the last few years - bad trades (horrendous actually) and bad talent evaluation. Paying a player doesn't = mistake. Wilson isn't mad they aren't on a spending frenzy, he's been mad that what they spend and who they draft isn't working.
Hey maybe Craig Morton is still available.
Thank you. Wilson has one of the best arms in football, and aside from Rodgers throws the most effortless deep ball in the league.

Sure did not see that the other night. Effortless?

This one stood out for me as well, among others.
The Seahawks’ franchise quarterback is playing some of the worst football of his career in 2021 and is significantly hampering his team, which already has glaring flaws. He has played a major role in Seattle’s offensive struggles as of late with errant throws and questionable decisions, which were particularly evident in the team’s most recent defeat, a 17-15 stinker at the hands of the Washington Football Team.

Wilson!!!
Also, it's not the Seahawks OL
Through the first 12 weeks the Seahawk's OL was ranked 12th in pass blocking and they were the sixth rated OL for the first three games since coming back from inhury.
The Seahawks rank 12th in ESPN's Pass Block Win Rate this season (61.4%). They've been sixth (65.8%) in the three games since Wilson's return but ranked 25th for Week 12 (56%).
Tell me how it can be done, I already know Russell Wilson is a much better quarterback than Daniel Jones.
What I meant by clever is
-reading defenses
-looking of the target receiver
-going through your progressions
-slickness in handling the snap and handoffs
-knowing when to move up in the pocket
-knowing when to throw it away
-changing to the right call at the LOS
-drawing folks offsides
That sort of stuff
Danny is still learning
Wilson is a magician by comparison
But its a team game and head to head Jones would beat Seattle
in a game right now....not beat Wilson, beat seattle as a team
Look we can win with Jones. But he will never be as good a QB as Wilson.
Its actually good Seattle went in the tank, otherwise Wilson would not be available to us at all
Thanks for the support
I'm through bashing Barkley. Those of us who have an eye for talent realize his flaws
His story is about politics. Management wants him on the field to prove themselves right and we fans have to sit on our hands
And I'm not anti-Jones. I like him
I hated Jason "Dallas" glum faced Garrett
He destroyed Jones and Jones confidence
Management woke up on Garrett....maybe they will also on Barkley someday, if he does not re-invent himself as a real weapon who will take on the Defense with attitude...I will welcome either of those
In the meantime I root hard for the team flawed or not
He's probably wasting oxygen when he's not making threads like this, so it's a wash.
2022 Salaries
Wilson $24,000,000
Jones $ 3,994,644
2023 Salaries
Wilson $27,000,000
Jones $ 0
Over two years remaining on Wilson’s contract it will cost the Giants $57,000,000 more than Jones is guaranteed.
The Giants are projected to be $4,000,000 under the CAP next year, therefore the Giants would have to figure out how to create $20,000,000 in CAP space next year.
Exacerbating Wilson’s impact on the Giants’ CAP, is that the Giants would be obligated to sign Wilson to a new contract. Wilson will be 35 at the time of his contract renewal
Asset cost to acquire Wilson
Seattle is reported to be looking for (3) first round draft picks.
Net effect on the Giants if they were to sign Wilson
The Giants would have to dismantle the team dropping players and restructuring others to create CAP space
The Giants would have no additional CAP space to sign free agents
The Giants would have minimal draft capital to build the team.

PLease stop with the money nonsense. At least act like you don't have a clue about the cap or money, same with each one of us.
And again, what if Jones was cranking out a huge season? The Giants wouldn't be able to afford Jones in 1-2 years?
Stop. No one knows what teams can do with the cap and the NYG situation is fluid to say the least. We have a QB in year 3 who would need to get paid BIG money, and soon, but now we can't sign a vet QB in the offseason because there's no money>?
Aint buying it. Let it play out first.
Jones a 6 in pocket awareness? No way. More like 0 or 1
This LOL, whether he has been jaded by our paper thin line or its just him, he is way closer to 0 than 10.
When did Wilson even become available? I ain't buying that either.

Great post...I had no idea
one can dream right?
Maybe we are better off surrounding Jones with a better overall team....he's not terrible
Garrett screwed him up, maybe Freddie can un-screw him
And no, I'm not saying Jones is better (he's not). But for anyone to suggest with the state of this team and the OL that we should make another horrendous cap/draft capital decision by going after him while he continues on a downward trend... well, I strongly disagree. lol
No he is never going to be a Russell Wilson
He could aspire to be a Tom Brady type pocket passer and win more games
His running should only be when he sees a sea of green in front of him, and a nice slide feet first at the end of the run
I hope the change to Freddie fixes or plasters over a lot of these Jones issues
Wilson is a great player until proven otherwise and no, 2-3 games post injury is not enough evidence to prove anything, especially when Wilson's last performance against the Skins was pretty good.
More and more I think of it, someone just said it on ESPN radio (admittedly they suck) but the point was if the Giants think Wilson is worth acquiring, they should also go hard after Sean Payton. It's an abstract way of thinking for NYG and it's a bit risky or dangerous, but why the hell not. Go big or go home.

"He could aspire to be a Tom Brady type pocket passer and win more games."
He could aspire to become arguably the best QB ever. Cool, cool.

Yeah I get that, and it was a vague comment (and kinda stupid the way I wrote it) lol. To clarify I am not saying he is a bad QB at this point, but the losses they had were when he turned the ball over last year. And he is struggling big time in a better current situation. He had a terrible game against the Rams to end last year. I am saying he is not young, and starting to trend downward, and the state this Giants team is in right now especially with the OL he would be knocked around for the foreseeable future. It just doesn't make sense. A couple of years younger I would be on board.
/what I find "remarkable" is the constant attemt to put down, to denigrate, to write as short and nasty and hurtful a comment as you can,
. In a short threAD this is but one of two "put downs" from a man (??) who never starts a thread, from a child who never has a positive contribution, from a freak who dosn't have the level of consiciousness to understand that his short pithy posts speak about him and not the victim he's trying to create.
Loathsome .....an encounter with this freak makes me check my shoe soles.

Wilson's play has tailed off this year. But not the last couple of years. In the last four years, he's thrown 34, 35, 31 and 40 (last year) and his YPA average for those four years is around 8. So the production has been high level.
The thumb could be the reason for the subpar play the two weeks. But you never know when someone is going to fall of a cliff, so it is important to keep a close eye on Wilson's play down the stretch.
I would bet he's still got the skills - a strong arm, mobility and high football acumen.
Clearly he was inferior to Jones in his arm strength, on field processing and reads, and had tunnel vision.
Stealing money from your employer today?
I would pass on Wilson or any other vet QB right now.
The problem here is the Maras would never hire a football man who is not "controlable"
Neither Payton, Rodgers or Wilson would ever come to a rigid organization like the Giants
Both would want control over players and Plays....the Maras are the supreme meddlers
I like the Scott Paoli hire for GM as he can deal and yet sell the Maras on the illusion its with their input and genius he makes the move. Paoli is a good politician
I did this chart more or less to compare Wilson to Jones, illustrating all the ways Jones needs to improve or does not stack up to the cream of the QB crop
We dont need a superstar QB to win a Lombardi- neither Simms, Manning or Hostetler were superstars- all were serviceable
And to those who dont like this thread or thinks its worthless....question-
Why read it, or even take the time to comment?
