It's going to be a 4-year deal worth $160M, sources say, with $35M more in upside. They are finalizing.

He had a nice year, after being a journeyman for 7+ years. And good for him, he deserves the $105M dollar deal he was able to garner.

Carr, Smith, and Jones are all being paid what the CURRENT MARKET dictates and based on their situations.

I know you guys really wanted Schoen and Daboll to hate the QB as much as you do, but clearly, they do NOT. These guys specifically Schoen and Daboll... AND - Jones - have earned their stripes this year. I would have been comfortable if they decided to move on from DJ, but I'm happy they clearly like him and want to continue building around him.

And now? I root for the team to improve. The whole team. Including DJ. And I'm looking forward to this offseason, the draft, FA, and ultimately seeing how this team rolls next season.


You do realize what a bad point this is right? Jones can't get paid what the market dictates if he never hit the market. That is literally inaccurate. And besides we heard from our own beat writer that the Giants were willing to pay more than other teams.

My exact point that you mocked is the whole "situation" thing. I mean I know you don't really understand what a market dictated price is but is it possible for you to understand that when an owner blames the teammates of a player in public for their poor play. When they say he's our QB of the future before a negotiation begins that it might hurt the ability to get the best deal in that negotiation?

And you totally got me man. I wanted our head coach and GM to "hate" a player just like me. No sorry dude. I don't hate Jones at all nor do I want others to. I just actually you know pay for Giants tickets and want them to be good and stuff and overpaying the most expensive and important player on your team off 1 good season I just don't think is a very good way to do that.

Especially when that player is coming off a horrible game in the most important game of his career. And for all of the excusing of his teammates nobody made him make some horrendous decisions and throws as well as plays that had both. Forgive me for not just wanting to be like our fantastic garbage can abusing owner and just only talk about the blessings that Daniel Jones has bestowed upon my life.

It totally makes sense that you don't understand these points if you don't even seem to understand what a market dictated price is.

It is funny too that you call Smith a journeyman

Jones and Smith both had one good season. Except Smith went to the Pro Bowl and Jones very much did not.

Jones may not have bounced around the league and you can blame Judge and his teammates all you want but normally when you have two horrible seasons followed by 1 good one. That kind of affects your pay a bit, you know?

What can I say. So go root for Geno and Seattle. This is a stupid debate. We get it. A (VERY) vocal group of you don't like our QB. Actually we got it 484,673 posts ago. The fact of the matter is it's not just me that disagrees with you, it's also the current coach(es) and GM. Oh wait, they are being manipulated by the bloody hand.
Yep because that's all it takes to analyze this info

people can't like something and also overpay for it right? Totally impossible?

That is the whole point of the joke you are referring to. But you fail to understand the premise and that is fine. I guess when you can't debate someone anymore it is the old suggest they aren't real fans of the team angle, a real classic!

Does anyone who ISN'T a Giants fan out there actually thinks this is a good deal?
