are on him, he holds the ball way too long. I thought the pass pro was pretty good yesterday, arguably the best we’ve seen all year (admittedly not saying much).
that come on this forum day after day saying QB is no sure thing and that's why the Giants shouldn't take one with their pick, simultaneously assume that using that first on an o-lineman will automatically "fix" the line. We've been drafting o-lineman in the first round for the last decade, and it still is not fixed. So, how is that any more of a safe pick than taking a QB?

True, theoretically...if we traded out of the 1st round for multiple picks in 2024 and 2025 then we would have a better chance of drafting and securing starters. Draft more players in rounds 2,3,4 etc. Have them all compete and build starters and backups. Then once that's done go for the star QB, Edge, etc player in 2025/2026.
the Ball too long is a major improvement area for him if he wants a long-term NFL career. He seems to be a great kid, a Jersey Guy, nice story and all, but he needs to throw it away or find the check down. He doesn't seem to have the movement skills or running ability to extend plays.
He does not possess good footwork or pocket presence. Holds the ball way too long and should have learned by now to throw the ball away instead of taking sacks which destroy their offensive series. You can also see that when you compare him to DJ, he just does not have the elusiveness to pull it down, run, and gain any substantial yardage. Love his story but this is not a QB who will be the Giants future.
Worst feet and ability to scramble of any quarterback I’ve seen in the NFL in quite a while. He seems to be a sack waiting to happen every time he drops back.
He is an undrafted rookie free agent. What exactly do you expect? Mahomes light? (And remember, Mahomes sat an entire year before starting) There is a reason (actually lots of them) why he wasn't drafted. NFL teams didn't think he was one of the top 220 prospects in the draft. The fact that he isn't throwing two or three INTs a game is impressive enough.
I don't know what more any logical person can ask from a guy who is still supposed to be running the scout team. The expectations of some around here are just incredible. I'm more upset he cost the Giants a top 2 pick than I am that he doesn't throw the ball away, a problem many young QBs deal with for an entire rookie season. He's played 2.5 games behind an O line that, despite playing much better than when Jones and Taylor were getting pummeled, is still weak.
from DeVito. In fact, he has done admirable job so far. Its the ridiculous posts like "What if DeVito Plays well the rest of the season ?" that are so frustrating. People need to open their eyes. He is not starting QB material.
All hammered behind this line but it is mainly on the QB.
The coaching DeVito needs is never take points off the board.
Once in field goal range survey the field and get rid of the ball if no one open in 2 - 3 seconds. Don't get sacked from the 35-the 45
You can criticize Devito but there is also a lot to like.
He throws a great ball. There is plenty of zip and he is very accurate.
When he drops back and has time he does not miss his target.
He throws receivers open.
He is mobile and can pick up yardage running the ball.
He has problems reading coverages. If his primary read is covered he does not know where to go with the ball.
He doesn't find his check downs causing him to take sacks. He also seems to be looking deep which causes him to hold the ball and to take sacks.
However, the fact that he will hold the ball allows him to make splash plays. it is not surprising to see Hyatt break out. Most of his patterns take time to develop.
And Devito has shown some success behind a suspect line and without a consistent running game.
I think that Devito can be Brock Purdy or better and on a team like San Fran.
on what we call good offensive line play it's ridiculous. DeVito continued to not be able to step up in the pocket because the pocket was constantly pushed back in his face. I watch other games and see QBs with a legitimate pocket but not with our Giants. More times than not our QBs are throwing under pressure.
he'd look a lot better behind a competent OL. How much better, we don't know. But he's shown me enough that I'm happy keeping him around a few more years to see how he can develop. Seems at least he'd achieve the level of a competent backup.
Who were playing at their worst and appeared to have given up.
With this how many times was he sacked? A QB will have to be drafted somewhere early next draft or the Giants will roll with Jones
If he holds the ball but makes big plays downfield
I don't think either one is doing very well. We need two good guards.
I doubt they would do that.

Here and now? I'm just glad he keeps bouncing back up.
