FilthyBeast Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Giants loading up for a SB run which makes me more confident picking them to come out of the NFC this year. 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have rather traded for Simmons than draft Bernard or Williams though. As of today I don’t think there’s a place for Simmons on the Bills either. But it was a very nice, opportunistic move the the Giants. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I am not one to always say "I wish the Bills would've done that" when a players gets traded, but in this case.... I wish the Bills would've done that. I think McDermott and co would've stood a darn good chance of helping Simmons "become the best version of himself", and if not, they'd have only surrendered a 7th. Oh well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could have slid right into this hybrid nickel defense we are running. That’s what I’m saying too. Loved Simmons in that draft though usually I’m not big on the hybrids at all. And he hasn’t really planned out to this point. But for a 7th? Damn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 AZ declined his option so he's automatically on a one-year deal, no? Am I right that the Giants can't extend him before he hits free agency? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s got the size and speed, but the criticism at draft time was that he was more of an athlete than football player. MLB in general needs to be the most instinctual position on the defense and if he lacks that football IQ, he’s going to struggle there. Not sure how accomplished he is as a pass rusher, but a player of that size and athleticism should always have a spot somewhere.

Man this is a huge bummer I absolutely love Simmons and honestly ideal MLB or not he would’ve been an instant upgrade to any MLB we have on the roster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ngbills Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I would do this trade anyday. See what they guy has. He is a superior athlete and maybe the floor is he becomes a ST/back up that you get for a 7th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikePJ76 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Great Move for the Giants. They get a talented player for cheap to pair with an excellent defensive coach and he is at the point in his career where it is time to play your best to guarantee a big future contract or just a contract in general. Should be a highly motivated player in a really good spot. I love everything the giants have done since Schoen and Daboll took over. They had a great interview with Schoen and brandon brown talking about how the numbers favor picking up defensive players at the cut deadline. It was something like 53% defensive signings workout and the offensive players do not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ngbills Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Even more this is exactly the type of LB McD seems to be looking for. The LB/DB combo player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Damn, I would like to see Simmons in the middle of McD's defense. The dude is 6'4" 235 and moves like a cheetah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next thing they’ll just tuck any comeback attempt by Kyler to IR where he can sell sports bras full time till he’s released next year even with his dead cap hit.
