Did anyone here actually believe this was going to happen?

Really? It would’ve been nice but, as Ed Lover said, “C’mon son.”

The Giants had to look interested; the new GM and coach have exceeded all expectations and, are in the playoff hunt. However, they showed they were willing to stand their ground and didn’t make any significant move, sans getting rid of dead weight for picks at the deadline.

The Giants were a just stop on his tour that benefited both parties.
Part of me feels like Dallas  
Matt in SGS : 12/2/2022 8:21 pm : link
is just trying to run up the price tag on the Giants for Odell to go there. They see the Giants are building something ahead of schedule & have the 2nd highest amount of cap space available going into 2023. If Jerruh's son is actually involved, I think his motivation would be to drive the price up to see if they can get the Giants to take a chunk out of that space for next year. If Odell goes to Dallas, he's the 3rd option at WR. He's a bigger "need" for the Giants considering they have almost nothing at WR now.

However...considering the mess that Jerruh has gotten himself into in the public eye, what he would love nothing more to do than get that out of the conversation. Signing Odell is quite the distraction to that. If Odell helps Dallas win the Super Bowl, even more so.

We'll see how it all plays out. If the Giants sign Odell, I have faith that Schoen and Brandon Brown, along with Daboll and Kafka have approved it from a football standpoint and what they are trying to build. If he signs with Dallas, oh well. Dallas just better win now because that window is open for them, but not sure for how long.

I just want the Giants to get 10 wins, get to the playoffs and maybe take a team down. They can do that with or without Odell.

No but it is on record Daboll got a steak



Daboll looks like a tomahawk steak type guy.


Two of them.
Maybe he is still here because they won't let him back on the plane?

i see it the same way Matt. I could see Jerry doing it in the same way everyone knew Jerry wanted Johnny Manziel over Zack Martin, but it would be the opposite of what has worked in dallas over the last decade and bizarre given their cap outlays to gallup/lamb once he hits the 5yo.

All the talking heads here on DFW radio are saying that their "sources" are telling hem that if OBJ won't workout, the Cowgirls won't be signing OBJ. And from all reports, OBJ has no intentions of working out for any team before he signs.

Giants would probably be smart to follow their lead. If OBJ can't even workout at this point, doubtful he plays this year.

I am all about getting OBJ at right price if healthy. If they sign him for any real number without seeing him workout, I would lose my mind.
Schoen will NOT sign  
Dave on the UWS : 12/3/2022 8:10 am : link
him just to make a splash. If he thinks he’s part of the solution going forward (health and contract), then it’s possible. He’s an open minded guy who leaves no stone unturned to improve the club. Beckham will have opportunities here he won’t in Dallas. Plus, I have a feeling he wants to finish where he started. Some of the fat has been steamed out of his personality. Being around friends like Shep and Barkley carry weight at his age.
So I assume OBJ  
Tom from LI : 12/3/2022 9:02 am : link
is heading to Buffalo next? I would be interested in see how that goes.
