in 2024....
We know they will likely draft the starter.
you cant bring back tyrod, hes glass. so you need a veteran backup.
and with this devito stuff im sure schoen/daboll will make the 3rd QB (there is a 3rd QB rule now) a priority.
where are we going to find 3 QBs?
we can barely find one!!
maybe tyrod can come back but as a #3 QB only. he cant stay healthy enough to be a #2 to a rookie QB.
and you have to do with a cap hit of DJ with 50 million likely starting the season on PUP/IR.
hes a PUP candidate for sure.
Jones isn't going anywhere. Any third QB is one you don't want signed away from the PS. That probably will be DeVito or some other UDFA.
good point. i always liked that strategy with RG3 and Cousins that one year with the redskins. if you get the #1 pick you take the best QB on day 1 and day 3 of the draft. not a bad draft strategy.

i mean this offseason. we have all offseason for FA, draft, trade market etc.
i think its time this team invests in the 3rd QB and make the roster room to carry 3 QBs.
this is what 2/3 seasons we have to deal with Fromm/Glennon and now Devito/Barkley. The org needs to invest in the 3rd QB.
And there's nothing he can possibly do that won't leave some fans apoplectic for every time he lines up under center.
i mean its happened 2 of the past 3 years.
the NFL even made a rule change to support 3rd QB on gamedays.
Daboll/Schoen cant afford to look this uncompetitive in 2024.
and im talking investing the #1 pick on day 1 of the round and #1 pick on day 3 and a veteran QB signins. like the redskins did that draft.
Aidan O Connel rookutype who is looking competent for the raiders and a rookie playcaller, rookie interim headcoach.
This is all about 2025 now.
Jones will be here to take a pasting when necessary, win a few games at least and hand off. As a courtesy, Giants will work to get him to his next team next offseason and add a veteran backup then.

After being on the active roster for the rest of the season, is DeVito eligible for the PS without an exemption? I can't see wasting an exemption on him if he is a JAG. So it's likely prove he is a bu or be cut once Jones is healthy enough to be activated.
Brock Purdy?
You draft a QB early in round 1. Jones will be back by the end of camp, maybe before. The guy is a workaholic.
They need to move on from Taylor. Good guy with ability but incapable of staying healthy.

You're reacting to a year where both the team's two top quarterbacks got hurt. That doesn't happen often. And when it does, your team is DOA regardless. A rookie 6th round QB is not going to save the season.
Brock Purdy?
In terms of resources, the difference between Purdy and Devito is a single draft slot. Purdy was one pick away from being an UDFA, so that doesn't really offer a significant difference from the Giants signing Devito as an UDFA. It's a question of talent evaluation, not resource allocation, if you're strictly comparing Purdy to Devito.
not a chance. He's going to let the rookie take the beating.
LOL, That Madmax Bait thing is awesome. Can't stop laughing how you used that!!!
Jones has proven injury prone so if he plays and gets hurt next year we could be on the hook for his entire 2025 salary.
I almost feel like you can't afford to play Jones next year for this reason. Especially if he is not in your long range plans.
So Jones should really be the third string QB next year. We will need a number 2.
