Tabe Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I like Miami picking up Teddy. He's a solid vet with a good head on his shoulders and he can certainly play if needed. And he's good enough that Tua should feel pushed by him a little bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawful Metal Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Falcons are meeting with Deshaun tomorrow. Anyone on the Falcons roster worth anything to throw in a trade? I don’t think I’ve seen a single Falcons game since 28-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hail Sabin Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Didn't realize he was a free agent or that DJ Chark was as well. Looking at the current WR Depth Chart for the Falcons Kyle Pitts is going to get an insane number of targets next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 Tyrod Taylor is going to be the Giants backup/starter for when Daniel Jones gets hurt again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoFistsJustFlips Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 2 years & $17 million for a backup?? Ugh. Are we sure Gettleman actually left? I get that having a reliable backup can be an important piece of the puzzle. But surely they could have found more value out there. At least throw the number 56 on Tyrod so it feels like The Giants got a better deal. #56 Taylor for $17 million? A steal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 16, 2022 Author Share Posted March 16, 2022 Its only 8.5 million guaranteed and like it or not that is the going rate for "quality" backups right now. Cheaper leads to the fiasco that happened last season Plus - the new Giants management wanted a (relatively) mobile backup QB since that is the offense they are going to be running so that narrows the choices even further (The following is an old tweet but basically shows the pool they were looking at) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 16, 2022 Author Share Posted March 16, 2022 Dammit - hit post too soon To further clarify - Taylor's deal is actually only 2 years, $11 million (5.5 million each season). It can hit $17 million with incentives (which would probably mean he would have to start all year to hit them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Wilson Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 As a Bills' fan I'll always be appreciative of Tyrod and his efforts with the team, but man he's looked rough the last couple years. I used to see him as a very serviceable bridge/high end backup QB but after last year I don't even know anymore. Hope he plays well for the Giants when Jones gets hurt/benched. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No no no Harden gets out of shape when he wants traded, and then seemingly drops fifteen pounds in a few days and sets the world on the fire his first couple games at his new team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 16, 2022 Author Share Posted March 16, 2022 The only rule changes officially proposed by clubs this offseason are all around OT Eagles and Colts are just proposing the straight "Both teams get the ball at least once" Titans proposal is that a team can still win on opening possession if they get a TD AND 2 Pt conversion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Houston has apparently told Deshaun they've approved the packages from Cleveland, New Orleans, and Carolina, and will let him pick where he goes. Notes He's met with everyone, including the Niners. As noted, Baker really sounds like he's expecting to play in Texas next season. New Orleans just re-structured CB Bradley Roby giving them cap space. Which, may be how they keep Terron Armstead if they win the Deshaun lotto. HOWEVER... they just grabbed S Marcus Maye away from the Jets, so that may be why they freed the cap space. The decision is expected some time today.

Never heard that format ever brought up again, I'm assuming the biggest issue is that it could drag on for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have seen that 17 number and was in such a rage I stopped reading lol. I will say that I actually like The Giants not going crazy on free agents. (Cap space could be the reason in actuality. But it still counts). They spent an ass load last year and they had a 0 TD season from Golliday to show for it. It seems much more reasonable to get their system in place. Get a year under their belt. Decide if Danny Dimes is the guy or not. Then you spend money and try to get the pieces together. Crawl. Walk. Run. Under Gettleman it was all Crab Walk all the time.
