this is interesting to me. horrible mechanics, sloppy footwork, poor ball security, 21 fumbles, but you think he's the best since Luck? can you elaborate? nothing i see on video makes me think he will be more than a game manager at the next level. there are people that agree with you, he's ranked as #1 or #2 in a lot of mocks. i just can't wrap my head around it
Yeah, I'm left wondering the same. He seemed to really regress last year. I don't see much at all. USC was a stacked preseason top-5 team and he could only lead them to a 3 loss season? Josh Rosen averaged over 380 yard/games in games that he started and finished. And that's with one of the worst o-line and receiving groups in the country.

From the Giants POV, if you do the deal now you also get 5 weeks to potentially work back up from 12 into the "elite" tier.
This makes absolutely zero sense.

Big Ben was selected at pick #11. Let's all chill out and see how this plays out.
-
It seems we are totally locked out of the franchise altering QB race. What do the QB prospects look like for next year? Any chance we trade back now and accumulate picks for another run next year?

I like how he intimates that Josh Rosen may like to use cocaine since he is rich. I follow UCLA football intensely and that's the first time I've heard that rumor.
-
No offense, but this "expert" seems like an unhinged idiot. Loses all credibility calling Rosen a mid-4th round talent.
-
I don't get those who are criticizing him. He needs a carrot to drive him forward in his rehab. And football is that carrot. Don't worry. He will never play again. No chance.

his propensity to force things when its better to just throw the ball away.
I'm a UCLA alumnus and this was the biggest problem with his game. He'll throw some absolute head scratchers under pressure. If you give him a clean pocket, there isn't a better passer at the college level. He's one of the best pure passers to come out in quite awhile.
-
McCarron, imo. Younger, cheaper, better measureables and a better/more refined thrower from the pocket. A "bridge" guy is someone you throw out there not to lose you a game. Execute the gameplan and hit the easy throws. I think either of these two can do that, but as stated above, McCarron is younger and cheaper.

I absolutely believe the plan is to move into the top-5 and draft a qb. It seems pretty clear after the Tyrod and Glenn trades and our focus on D in FA. However, I could see come scenario where the asking price to get into the top-5 is deemed to be just too high, or there's a couple of surprise picks in the first 4 that causes our qb targets to drop and we sit around and grab a Baker Mayfield or Mason Rudolph further down in the first round.

Uh oh! Does that mean we have illiterate monkeys running the team?

Good signing. Has some experience. Seems like a very solid backup who can start in a pinch.
-
Brissett is only 24 and has shown some promise. Indy was a putrid team last year. I would have no problem with Brissett as a back-up, "bridge" starter or developmental guy.

I'm locked and loaded. Now, where can I find the messenger?

Wow! This really is shocking!
Who is Trent Murphy, btw?

I have absolutely no problem with signing Kaep. He's the best QB on the free agent market and he's not a criminal or anything.
-
This was my very first thought after hearing the Glenn news. "I hope Hughes is next."

Just now, Real McCoy said:
Best thing about that pick is it is the 1st one of day 2. Teams will be calling to trade for it as their guy might have slipped.
True that!
I absolutely love this trade! Even if we don't trade up and instead sign a veteran QB and draft a ton of young talent I'll be happy. I trust McBeane's vision at this point.

If healthy, he is a clear upgrade over Tyrod. He was steadily improving in his two years before his injury.

What? The American medical system obviously has its flaws, but our current cancer treatments are not "BS." I had childhood bone cancer and I wouldn't be here today, 30 years later, with a wife and 2 kids, if it hadn't been for my chemo, radiation and the great doctors and medical staff at Roswell Park.
Prayers for Jim and his family.

These posts are hilarious. We make the playoffs for the first time in 17 years and now people are "done" with the franchise because we are keeping our capable starting QB to serve for a year as a bridge QB?
-
This is a fun game.
-
Sign Veteran QB. Hold picks or even trade back for additional future value. We have a lot of holes, so go BPA. If that happens to be QB, then great. If not, then grab another Peterman type in the latter rounds. We are in a good spot and can get a lot of longtime starters out of this draft. None of these QBs are sure things.

Was Trent Edwards broken?

It's strange how much some people still hate Trent Edwards. Count me among those who believe he was absolutely a different player after that hit. He was never a vertical passer, but early in his career he was very willing and able to take shots into the intermediate part of the field. He was a West Coast Offense player and got the ball out quick, generally speaking, but that doesn't mean checking down. Something clearly got screwed up with his ability to process what was in front of him after that game. Watch film of the games leading up to the hit and then watch the game he played against the Monday night game he played against the Browns later that season. He clearly lost his ability to process what was in front of him. After that Browns game, I knew his career was finished. He played some statistically good games after that, but he never looked the same. He looked timid, fragile and lost.
