Josh Dobbs

for a late round pick swap is as cheap a deal as you can make.

but not good enough to salvage the season. And at this point I just want a top 2 pick so that’s pretty much all that matters as far as the roster is concerned.

so he’s not going to be dirt cheap after this year.

and I cannot stress this enough - healthy enough to protect ANY quarterback.

The Vikings have a top offensive line this year because they have been able to stay relatively healthy. Offensive lines can take one guy going down at a time, they can't take multiple.

Darrisaw (8/10 games) and O'Neill (10/10 games) have been two things no Giants tackle has been this year: available and great - Darrisaw is the top o-linemen per PFF, at least as of a week ago. Their interior has stayed healthy, too: Bradbury (7/10 games), Cleveland (7/10 games), Ingram (10/10 games)

makes me laugh. Look at Minnesota:

Hockenson
Jefferson- when healthy
Addison
Ackers
Maddison
Osborn

plus a pretty decent Oline (when fully healthy)..

Dobbs with our group, our Oline would be less than Taylor...

The last thing this team needs at this time is a journeyman QB to win 2 or so games and take out of the running for the top QB's. With DJ's neck and other injuries we need his full time replacement

Exactly. When you have time and open WRs you can look pretty good. Been at least 10 years since the Giants had that.

Would like use this as an example to argue the narrative that a QB can't be brought in because it will takes weeks upon weeks to learn the offens and will not be any better then a UDFA QB sitting on the pratice squad. As you keep hearing on BBI and as for the Giants that may be a true statement but for a well run organization I don't think its true.

You will get called an idiot. Not even worth it.

Has been impressive breaking tackles and finding the open man. Maybe they simplified the offense, but it is working for now. Would love to have him here as a back up or bridge qb. Can't question his compete level if you've watched him play.

Single wing offense is so archaic broadcast should switch to black and white 4x3 anspect ratio and add digital scratches and tinny audio.

The better question is why didn't the Giants just acquire him before the season instead of paying Jones.

Oh that's right; the Giants may have found that a tough sell to the fanbase.

The Giants are about to learn (again) what a tough sell is during these last four remaining home games.

Jets fans have a reason to be way more pissed about this than we do.

At best, the Giants would have finished 3rd in the NFC East.

We need a few seasons of quality drafts. Not easy to do as it's harder than it seems.

This argument may have made sense when you had complicated offenses (like Gilbride's a decade ago), but not now when most offenses are much simpler. It's a bit of a silly argument, guys don't need years to marinate in systems to produce.
