I'd rather take my chances with Jones and hope he continues to develop and ascend.

We let Cousins go and we've been floundering ever since.

Definitely not an easy choice. He's still relatively young, so maybe he can get better. But he seems like he will be an average QB. Which is still good. Lots of teams need an average QB. Average = too much money though. Good for them personally, tricky for their respective teams.

I think you could make arguments either way. I'd draft a QB and sign a cheap vet if I was them.

Either way, I bet the Giants are kicking themselves now for not exercising the 5th year option.

I don't think he let him go as much as he definitely didn't want to be year. He said the right things, but seemed pretty obvious his intentions were elsewhere. He also did get overpaid, but he's definitely better than what we've had since alex smith got hurt.

This is why I don't fucking like him and I will root against his team every single season. The moment he leaves the Vikings, the Vikings will go right back towards the top of the NFC teams I wouldn't mind winning a Super Bowl.

He was an actor reading the lines. Good for him personally, because he's got paid a shit ton of money. But he'll always be a little bitch in my book. Good work Giants!

He should send money to Bruce every year, because Bruce was such a dbag he laid perfect cover for Kurt to snake away like a rat, while looking like a little Saint. Fuck Kurt.

Minnesota isn't doing any better really. All that money paid to him with nothing to show for it. You don't just pay people because their is cap space. I would not pay Ron Dayne, I would not pay Chase Young unless they could string 2 years of production together. If I were the Giants, I would guarantee him two years and that's it. I would not cripple my cap over Jones.

I forgotten what a fucking stud Earl Campbell was and also a
Class act, he left it all on the field. Love that guy, too bad he never won a SB. Same goes for Barry Sanders.

This is the conundrum the Giants have, add in Barkley and Williams plus others and you have to add other pieces' like a #1 receiver and a few OL men to spend money on. IMO you sign Jones to a team friendly contract of 30/32 mill no more then 4 years 75-80 guaranteed, that still puts Jones around #16 on the QB earnings list of QB's. You release Golladay June 1st giving you 13.5 more in cap (7mill dead cap) right there is your Barkley money leaving you around 32 million to do all the others which I will tell you is almost 24 million more then they had last year for cap space. Cap is projected to go up in 2024 almost 23 million per team.(I think)

Giants would be really dumb to give Barkley a big contract

MPO is around 12 for Barkley per for 3 years.

$12M a year would barely keep him in the top 10 highest paid backs. McCaffrey leads the pack at $16M per year, I'd start there.

Zek is hurting the Cowboys, you can always find a RB

Things just keep getting worse for Wilson. Turns out that Wilson's charity foundation apparently pays its employees a lot more than they donate money to the charity.

Wilson actually saved us by refusing to play for us.

It's so sad how many "charities" out there are similar to this. Rackets disguised as charities.

I was reading that last night, pretty fucking shady. I'm curious to know how many friends/families are "employees" of this "charity".

What a dick. Yeah, he dodged a MAJOR bullet for us.
