I understand Hill, but what has Waddle or Achane done to show they are problematic? And for as much flack as I give McD, I fully believe he would be capable of keeping any/all of them in line better than McDaniel.

Oh for sure, agreed all the way. I'm just going off the recent report that the Giants are holding private workouts for Sanders and other QBs, and they obviously need a new QB (whether or not there is a good candidate in this draft). Thinking strategically, if they do draft a QB at #3 then that means Schoen/Daboll have owner permission to draft a QB, and if they have that buy-in from the owner it might indicate that Mara is willing to give them more time in order to develop said QB. Not saying there they should draft a QB, or that there is a good one to draft. wrt to the QB room, I think it's a weird room personality-wise. Wilson with his overly-groomed "public persona", and Winston just a weirdo in general out there licking his fingers trying to "eat a W"... then throw in a Shadeur Sanders... would love to have the Hard Knocks footage from that room.

To the bold, absolutely weird and bizarre. But it kinda reminds me of an old coworker who got PIP'ed on a Monday, and on Tuesday filed for medical leave, and then milked that medical leave for over 8 months before the company could get their legal ducks in a row to fire him. But that coworker was weird and bizarre as well.

Not sure it's bizarre or even surprising. Sounds like some classic Derek Carr to be honest. Not interested in being a bridge QB or mentoring a rookie. So make him the man and build around him or trade/release him. Sure, you'd want better from the guy, but I also wouldnt be too surprised if I were a GM. All QBs have big egos.

Does drafting a QB early and selling the story of he/we need a couple years together to develop buy them some time? I cant imagine an owner as meddling as Mara would be happy using an early pick on a QB who his next regime might not even want. Side note: a Giants QB room of Wilson, Winston, and Sanders is such a weird room.

DT-DT-DT with our first 3 picks! If nothing else, this exercise always provides perspective on why we are at home and not in the FO.

Grier and McDaniel are dead men walking. I wouldnt be surprised if owner Stephen Ross was behind this opinion piece at some level. He wants to fire Grier, but also wants to replace both the HC and GM at the same time, so Grier has been given one more (lame duck) year, and they're already laying the groundwork to move on from McDaniel. You love to see it.

Yep, and in basketball, the whole team revolves around 1-2 stars. And their draft (and the NHL draft) doesnt go nearly as deep as the NFL's. Just completely different animals.

I'm as serious as every other post in this thread that is offended by Cook posting anything on social media.

Welp, that's that for Watt in Pittsburgh. The Steelers GM needs to teach this young punk a lesson and trade him before the draft. How dare he post anything on social media. Probably has his troublesome brother in his ear. He isnt even a 3-down DE anyways.

I appreciate the discussion and new ideas, but I hate these ideas for the NFL. No system is going to be absolutely perfect, but I think the NFL has the best draft system/process for the type of league it is. We already have great parity in the NFL. Especially compared to any other sports league. No need to make changes. Tanking almost never works out because the current coaches and players don't want to lose and care too much about their jobs, which is a good thing. It backfired on the Dolphins, Texans, and now Pats. And even with it backfiring on the Texans, they still landed the better QB anyways. The simple system the NFL has right now is the best for the NFL, imo.

In division, I want more.

Yeah, everyone is locked in on Beane's statement that he's paused talks and has moved onto the draft, because these fans triggered by social media want to teach this young, punk, whipper-snapper a lesson! But they are ignoring the fact that Beane also said its totally possible they get a deal done during the season or before next offseason. Maybe a deal gets done, maybe it doesnt. But Beane hasnt slammed the door on our 2nd best offensive weapon who he just spent a 2nd round pick on.

Funny you mention Eagles. I know they drafted Carter after the street racing stuff, but that isnt what Roseman specifically mentions here. Do they have any real domestic/sexual abusers on the team?

Yeah, I was probably a little unfair saying 3 seasons. But no more than 6. The 6th season ends with the Battle of the Bastards, and that's when the show should've ended imo. I believe season 6 was the first one they were past the book material and just winging it. I'll give them credit for keeping it on the rails through BotB. But that season 7 opening, when Ed Sheeran showed up, I'll never forget seeing that and going "welp, this is over!". And then it just got worse and worse.

Yep, it's April. Can set your calendars by the annual Tyreek arrest.

While transcripts would say I majored in Chemistry/Secondary Ed at Fredonia, I think I actually earned a Doctorate in Euchre we played so much. All day, every day at the house, and every week at the Euchre tournament at Muldoon's. Ton of fun and ***** talking. I play on Euchre 3D now as well.

Yep, according to Spotrac it's $31.8M dead cap hit if they release him in 2027. Which saves them $21.6M off his cap hit of $53.4M if he stays on the roster. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/47598/tua-tagovailoa

He's there for 2 more years, no matter what. The dead cap is just not worth it. Will be interesting tho. If they flounder again this year, and they will, I could see Ross clean house and fire both Grier and McDaniel. That's the prevailing thought on why Grier is being given another year at all, Ross wants to replace both the GM and HC at the same time instead of this piecemeal stuff. If they end up with a new staff in 2026, I could see them giving Tua 1 last shot under the new guys and then cutting bait in 2027.

The first 3ish seasons, yes. But the moment you see Ed Sheeran just turn it off. Garbage.

We'll never be so advanced that we're able to fix how badly they ruined that show. 🤣

This would almost be a real concern... if there were any actual GoT fans left. That franchise went extinct and no bio-engineering is bringing it back. What a fall from glory.

Fake news. Not back from extinction. Just marketing hype for a biotech company.

Like $13M. Just re-sign him. edited for accuracy
