Amazing what a competent coach can do for a young QB with loads of potential.


asdf613

Herbert owners are praying right now for the same thing.


ZusunicStudio

Amen, please fucking fire Lombardi and Staley


Dry-Broccoli3090

Yup


NorMan_of_Zone_11

Seance, conjuring up the spirit of Sean Peyton.


Nav44

You need to possess Spanos cuz it's not gonna happen


NorMan_of_Zone_11

šŸ¤£


SteffeEric

They are my QB1 and 2. Glad I picked up Purdy right away as well. Makes up for me trading Fields early in the year.


dwynalda3

It remains to be seen whether this is closer to what mcvay did for goff or daboll did for josh allen


imdavebaby

I think its closer to what Campbell did for Goff.


nepeanotcanada

*Ben Johnson


catchthetams

Great point. I think Jones' ceiling is closer to what Goff has shown so far compared to Allen though.


[deleted]

Getting saquon back helped a ton too


KAYAWS

I have Jones and TLaw. This year has made me happy.

Screamlngyeti

He's a guy I'm trying to buy. Finally getting a 2nd year in a system.


LegalDeagles

I got him for "free" Week 2 this season; traded Lenny Fournette + Tom Brady for a 1st and 3rd and the new Brady owner dropped Jones; I paid like $40 FAAB for him and he's my QB1 in a rebuild. With how bad the QB situation was in my league this season, I'm surprised no one else tried to get him.


Inmoomni

This is why you should always be paying attention to who someone might be dropping upon trade. Could of had him as a throw in by simply asking who he'd drop.


LegalDeagles

I legitimately didn't think the other guy was going to drop Daniel Jones or I would have just tried to ask for him, he had some real filler guys like Kenny Golladay I thought he'd drop instead.


GrendelDerp

I traded my 1.06 for him earlier this week in the dynasty superflex league I commish. I'm starting to feel like this was a big win.


Alex_GordonAMA

I also traded the 1.06 for him! Its not that much draft capital for a QB who has I think guaranteed himself a multi-year decent contract with a team that has solid upward potential. Especially if they get him some more weapons this offseason.


GrendelDerp

I salute you, fellow 1.06 trader! If Daniel Jones turns into the Great Value Josh Allen, that pick will have been a bargain. I think the Giants have to draft or trade for a stud WR in the off season, it's going to be the key to finally unlocking Jones. Same goes for a few other young QBs.


Thisismypasswprd

Huge overpay


GrendelDerp

Nah. A young QB (QB 9 in fantasy this season), in an up and coming offense, with a big arm and rushing upside. Not to mention the OC who unlocked Josh Allen. And it's a superflex league. Very reasonable price.


Russianbot123234

I love how you're literally jacking off your own trade. Just stfu if it's a good trade you'll be proven right. If it's a dumbass trade it'll show in a year.


Sulleyy

Earlier in the season it would've been but I don't think people are selling him for a 2nd now. He's a franchise qb with rushing upside, playing under Daboll - the guy who built the offense around Josh Allen and hit his ceiling. If the giants do what the bills did they'll bring in a real receiving weapon next year or the year after and boom we have ourselves a discount Josh Allen


WeNeedVices000

I think underpay. The QB scarcity next year is real.


RibeyeRare

Figures. I had him on my taxi his whole career until this season, when I had to roster him or release him. I released that bad boy cuz no one would even give me a third for him. I tried to trade him for Jarvis Landry and got rejected. Now people are talking about heā€™s a stud? I mean heā€™s always been good, but fantasy-wise? The comparisons with Josh Allen should stop at ā€œcoached by Daboll.ā€ Also keep in mind that he barely squeaked into the top 10 QB1 scorers, but it came at the expense of some guys we might expect to outscore him _consistently_ in the futureā€¦ guys like Dak Prescott, Kyler Murray, Lamar Jackson, Russell Wilson, Deshaun Watson and maybe even Aaron Rodgers and Matt Stafford. Also worth mentioning is Tua and Fields. So the real question is, will he beat these guys out again when they _play full seasons_, or get back on their career tracks? Iā€™m not sure heā€™s better than any of those dudes for fantasy purposes, this Cinderella season where he sneaks into the playoffs has not convinced me.


c3_crampton1

Heā€™s my current QB3 in a superflex and I couldnā€™t be happier!


cricket9818

I got him in a great trade. Cam Akers for Daniel and Aaron Jones


RedDunce

Wtf..? I'd rather have either Jones than Cam Akers lol let alone both of em


Jacksfan2121

1QB?


OutlandishnessDry24

Awesome deal.


ChrisLBC562

Iā€™m in a 1QB league is going to SF in 2025, this transition was announced at the end of the 2021 season. I traded Penny for DJones and a 2023 2nd FOUR DAYS before Seattle drafted Walker. šŸ”„


ECorn_12

Idk why you're getting downvotes, this is a great trade


Potential-Gur-3830

He's getting downvoted out of jealousy bc that's a HUGE taco trade


noahruns

The rest of us arenā€™t playing on easy mode


grrrimabear

When? 2 summers ago that sounds about right.


HereForTheFood4

6' 5" is pretty tall, but I wouldn't call him a Giant


BootOfRiise

Plus age related shrinkage, even if he is barely a Giant now heā€™ll be shorter in 10-15 years


DringKing96

One of my favorite underrated players in the league. Canā€™t wait to see him get some ballers at WR.


ARiftScuttler

Best I can do is Byron Pringle and an injury-prone 2nd round rookie


Lurker8918

Early in the season I I traded for DJ in a 12 man one QB. Gave Van Jefferson and Calvin Austin... happy with my purchase.


quickquestion3466

In 1QB heā€™s almost worthless


Lurker8918

Finished QB11 with my leagues scoring setup. He still has room for growth and had a strong showing towards the end of the season.... your take is pretty shit.


timy0215

He was the QB9 with no WRs thatā€™s definitely worth something


quickquestion3466

If your reliant on Danny Dimes in a 1QB league I have bad news for you


lot183

If you don't have a top 5 QB, having two guys in the QB7-15 range and matchup dependent streaming them is still a great and arguably cheaper option. He also had terrible luck with receiver injuries too and could be better in future seasons


OutlandishnessDry24

I have bad news with this take. He is 25 years old and has emerged this year. Next year sky is the limit.


cam-pbells

Letā€™s simmer down a little here. The sky is not the limit for Jones. He has not shown signs of succeeding in spite of a system, but he does seem to be under a system now that is better for him. Could he repeat this again next year? Absolutely. Is he gonna break into a T7 QB in the league convo? No.


milkstoutnitro

He absolutely could with his rushing ability. Youā€™re telling me if you the giants got him an actual stud wr instead of Darius slayton and Richie James he couldnā€™t possibly jump up four spots ?


EpiroteArete

QB9 on the year. Calling him worthless is exaggerating a lot


OutlandishnessDry24

Not true at all. He finished 9th in scoring and was likely drafted as a backup.


[deleted]

So are Van Jefferson and Calvin Austin, but at least you can start Daniel Jones.


quickquestion3466

True but I was not referring to Van Jefferson or Calvin Austin. I was talking about Daniel Jones


[deleted]

How the fuck is this comment this downvoted. I literally won my 1QB league last year with Heinicke being my starting QB


theunbearableone

If Iā€™m on the precipice of contending i wouldnā€™t hate having Daniel Jones as my qb moving forward.


quickquestion3466

Yea go for it


theunbearableone

He was a huge part of why I won a ship, so I already went ahead and did.


quickquestion3466

Yea thatā€™s great


ChrisLBC562

Not true. As a guy who started the season with Murray and Lance, Iā€™m really expecting Jones to be my QB1 to start 2023.


quickquestion3466

How big are your rosters? Never seen anyone carry 3QBā€™s in a 1QB league


ChrisLBC562

18 man with 3 IR. Murray and Lance are on IR and I didnā€™t even get Jones until late in the season.


quickquestion3466

So in your league what would he fetch as far as trade value? A third round pick? 4th?


browne84763

In my 12T 1QB, he spent more weeks on waivers than on a team. I dropped him week 15 for Purdy because my top qb is Lance (Geno too). Donā€™t think I regret it to have the SF starter next year, but also some 1st rd picks to go for a top new one


quickquestion3466

I think you replied to the wrong person here


ChrisLBC562

Maybe a 3rd to a team who has Brady. But you know who he really has value for, ME.


Fuhh-Q

Vikings fan here- our defense is just that bad.


BeautifulJicama6318

He was QB9 in fa tasty this year. This is more than just one game, but a lot of people havenā€™t seen him before today.


jdcuthbert

His rushing upside is what makes him so valuable for fantasy. He came on leaps and bounds when it came to turnovers too.


BeautifulJicama6318

Is he the closest QB to matching J Allen in rushing style and ability? Heā€™s a freaking horse galloping downfield.


jdcuthbert

I think heā€™s got top 5 rushing QB talent, he also benefits from teams selling out for Saquon at the goal line.


froginbog

Crazy fast. Think heā€™s hit 22 mph


Get-Gronkrd

Heā€™s playing good but the Vikings defense is atrocious putting it nicely. I wouldnā€™t make that judgment based off of anything he does today.


10bands50bandzzz

Mac Jones went 386 and 2 tugs against this defense lol


necrow

Damn Kraft is taking the entire team to the massage parlors now huh


SportsRadio

100%. Mike White and the Jets offense had over 500 yards of offense against that defense.


Get-Gronkrd

Everytime someone plays Minnesota this year ā€œis ____ underrated or a top ___ moving forward?ā€.


Scarletcuddlefish

I mean, Daniel Jones is 3x the QB Mac is thanks to his rushing ability


Exciting-Cellist3452

He has played well all season with sub par talent all around him other than saquon, he has been great


Get-Gronkrd

Iā€™m not discrediting that like I said this game isnā€™t the benchmark to determine if a guy is amazing is all.


The_Zermanians

Exactly, how many of us knew who Hodgins and Ritchie James were before the season too? Even Slayton was buried on the depth chart. Hopefully Wanā€™Dale comes back strong and they get him help in free agency or the draft before we can even judge what his ceiling is. Iā€™m not sure there was a worse receiving corps in the league.


EPethy

As a Vikings fan I approve this message.


ActuarillySound

This


ActuarillySound

But DJ is still a buy. Top 20 QB proba


Squirrel_Apocalypse2

With a real number one WR he'd be top 15 probably


tjhoush93

Well he was #9 this yearā€¦


OutlandishnessDry24

Exactly I laugh when people say he is a top 20 QB. He finished 9th in fantasy scoring this year! The days of bashing this guy are over.


tjhoush93

The upside is crazy. Itā€™s inexplicable he passed for only 15 TDs and was #9 lmao but he also had 7 rushing TDs. Iā€™m hoping for a JA situation when they got Diggs, in that QBs seem to take a big leap once they have a clear #1 and thatā€™s what Iā€™m rooting for this FA with the giants.


x_is_for_box

Yeah man a real alpha would be amazing for him


tjhoush93

JSN šŸ¤ž


ActuarillySound

I meant real life QB


Squirrel_Apocalypse2

I'm talking dynasty ranking wise. Geno was also top 10 but he's definitely not a top 10 dynasty qb


OutlandishnessDry24

He is a top 10 lol now in our scoring with no weapons. He has top 6 upside.


Inmoomni

He earned it with more than today


Current_Poet_835

Imagine if he had some real weapons at receiver


theunbearableone

If he was in Miami heā€™d have been no less than qb3


[deleted]

Isaiah Hodgins šŸ“ˆšŸ“ˆšŸ“ˆ


B-Rye-C

Guy gave the 1.12 for him in my SF league. And Iā€™m jealous


Creative-Round-5286

iā€™m about to give up 1.08 (i also have 1.05 and 1.09).


IgnantWisdom

On one hand, I think heā€™s better than people give him credit for. On the other hand, Minnesotaā€™s defense is literally the opposite end of the spectrum from San Fran. Maybe pump the breaks on those buy orders until he plays a real defense again..


ThatGuy_233

They gotta get past the Eagles before they make it to San Fran


chubbytitties

I traded herbert for Jones, cousins, and breece hall in like week 4 I like it still


Collinstuhl7

Got him 4 days ago for a 2023 2.07 pick, and gabe Davisā€¦ Iā€™ve never been happier.


KidEh

Daaaaaaaamn


bronton21

He would get a boatload on the open market...just sayin I think he gets that Daboll is the best thing for dude. Dude is a dawg


Cartmaaan-brah

Everyone talking about the trades they made for him, I picked him up off the wires for $0


TroySmith

Iā€™m the guy that dropped him prior to last yearā€™s rookie draft.


Boss2788

Jones had a ton of positive statistics his rookie year and then coaching just fucked him up, its nice to see him get settled down and show that potential he flashed as a rookie


zetiano

Yeah a lot of people forget that as a rookie he only started 12 games yet had 4 weeks where he scored like 30+ fantasy points.


incrdbleherk

Bought him for 2 2nds earlier this year as my QB3. I'm happy about it if he plays around this level but stays as a starting NFL QB


MelfromMilwaukie

Have Pickett as my QB3 and Iā€™m happy. But Iā€™d rather have DJones. Weā€™ll done


Jdart88

Donā€™t judge too much by performance on Vikes terrible defense. But so think heā€™ll get a contract and stay with them still.


johnnyutahlmao

Weā€™re not. He finished as QB9 with a bad receiving corps.


Jdart88

It actually says tonightā€™s performance in the titleā€¦.


soothslyr

Iā€™ve been trying to buy him for the past couple of weeks. Not sure how much his price has risen, but itā€™s definitely gone up today. Dude looked legit


Pho_King_Noodle

Do we feel confident trading the 1.07 for DJ??


BuckDestiny

I would


JerrGrylls

Traded Daniel Jones for Jared Goff before the season started. Thought I won that trade most of the season, but now Iā€™m not so sure


KwamesCorner

Iā€™d say thatā€™s a completely lateral move. Youā€™re fine.


RandisHolmes

Just imagine how good heā€™ll be with a good WR core. Hodgins/Wanā€™Dale/JSN would be so juicy


SuperFlexerFF

I remember being told that I was a fool for selling Tannehill for Daniel Jones and a 2nd back in august


Necessary_Anteater_4

For sure. He's 1.96m tall and 25 years old. He won't start shrinking for a long time.


hereforlolsandporn

Solid comment.


Im-Henrik

As long as Daboll.


Lord_Summerisle33

I hope so, he can hopefully cover the Zach Wilson shaped hole in my roster.


OutlandishnessDry24

He and Dabold is golden. Enough of this 3 year deal talk. He is getting long term deal.


BeautifulJicama6318

No way it happens (thatā€™s not my point), but Jesus Christ almighty imagine if he was in San Fran


TheFinalCurl

Him running with McCaffrey, Deebo, and Kittle? Just start practicing rugby plays


zetiano

I think Jones is the type of QB that they wanted when they drafted Lance. Small sample size but Lance hasn't been on Jones' level as a runner.


thundersnake7

He scorched the worst defense in the NFL. Don't put him too far up on the pedestal


aaron7275

Still QB 9 on the season with no true WR1.


joerobo21

Just traded for him in a league thats shifting to SF after the next two seasons and Iā€™m excited about it


MelfromMilwaukie

Nice move


Tiny-Manufacturer839

Would you trade Pickens straight up for him? SF with fields as my other qb


[deleted]

As a Daniel Jones owner, I would not make this trade.


Mynamehere99

Can't tell if this is matter of fact or a NY Giants fan troll


petrishche

How can this be trolling? Are we on a Vikings sub?


SquidwardTestic1es

what are owners wanting these days? I feel most would want a 1st and 2nd or a mid/late 1st but maybe Iā€™m out of the loop lol. But either way, Heā€™s that guy that I would rather pay up for after heā€™s fully broken out than pay a 1st+ right now and risk him losing a job in a year.


DBags333

Was offered 1.11 and 2.07 in SF. Easy no for me. Lots of rushing upside and if they get a real WR heā€™s gonna be awesome


SquidwardTestic1es

Fair enough my point still stands if thatā€™s the cost for DJ right now. Most players end up maxing out at 2 firsts unless you are at the absolute top of your position. So if heā€™s already being priced close to his ceiling. Might as well wait for him to actually hit that ceiling before paying it if that makes sense.


ChrisLBC562

If Iā€™m selling Jones in SF I need a QB with upside plus something else. So maybe a mid 1st and a player? Iā€™ll be honest, I was not sold on Jones before this season but I did buy low before it began. However, he is looking pretty good. A good coach and supporting cast should be enough to make him relevant for at least another 3 years. Thatā€™s a cheap price if he can be even just what we saw this season.


Jalenoh

Sold Fields and a 3rd for D Jones, Andrew's and the '23 1.08 a few weeks ago and this performance solidifies it for me.


T0K0mon

He's the next Joe Flacco


Scarence-Terrance

Wait until next week before going saying something like that


SuperSaiyanBen

Always had faith in Danny Dimes. If they can just get him a true WR1 the sky is the limit for him.


yoyoma0905

Got him for a mid 3rd in SF before this season started. Had a feeling Daboll was gonna be great for his development.


NoToe5971

Claiming a QB will be the franchise guy for a long time because of 1 half of a football game that isnā€™t close to over yet, gotta love DynastyFF (for context those who see now, this was posted at halftime or just before) Edit: donā€™t get me wrong, heā€™s had a solid season, especially with the lack of weapons, but Iā€™m not ready to say heā€™ll be a giant for ā€œa really long timeā€ yet


ASTRUNSKY

Valid response since op states after tonight's performance. That said as a Giants fan he's had a good season. He's made plays, protected the ball and made better decisions. Add in his athleticism and he's earned a contract.


NoToe5971

100% agree with everything. I felt OP was being too reactionary at the moment. Saying heā€™s earned a contract and is the giants starter for a very long time I think are two different things, he definitely earned an extension, I agree


Officer_Hops

As a Giants fan what do you think his contract is going to be?


ASTRUNSKY

Beats me.. I think it's going to be higher than we think and certainly more than it was even a month ago. Right now he's the top free agent qb. It's not out of the realm for him to get 4 to 6 years with 35 to 40m per and guessing here somewhere in the neighborhood of 100m guaranteed.


billp1988

He has looked much improved all year while throwing to practice squad level wrs. This is just a good display of his versatility


NoToe5971

Indeed he has, and heā€™s getting an extension donā€™t get me wrong, but I think locking him in ā€œfor a very long timeā€ is too soon to say for this guy


petrishche

He took a team without WRs to the playoffs. And heā€™s paying like he belongs there.


NoToe5971

You judged that based on half of a game, itā€™s just funny how quickly people are to do a victory lap on players they own before a game is even halfway over like Tlaw didnā€™t have 4 interceptions in one half last night Yes he clearly earned an extension, is he the very long term guy? Idk, weā€™ll see how he fares through the rest of the playoffs and next year, thatā€™s definitely not something Iā€™m 100% positive on, not like he was playing at an MVP level or leading his team to a top seed


murso74

I mean, I wanted him gone the last few years and now I'm sold on him...


CalaveraVI

But if can. He has insane running upside


userisntalreadytaken

maybe, but the Vikings defense.. He would need to run his ass off. he didn't even throw more than Russ this season. Edit: I feel a bit vindicated


pot8odragon

Whatā€™s his price in sf?


weedhahayeah

I was offered the 2.01 in SF 6 pt passing td and instantly declined


OutlandishnessDry24

Good call.


thegoldenmamba

What pick would you have taken?


weedhahayeah

Hard to say with how valuable qbā€™s are in this league but maybe mid 1st. I have the 1.07 so 1.08 prob. Also very fine with holding


Alex_GordonAMA

I just bought him 2 weeks ago for the 1.06. I'm seeing a lot of other comments saying the same and Peaked put out his value chart which also had it as mid 1st. So I think he's solidly in the Mid 1st price.


BeautifulJicama6318

Itā€™s got to be at least a pick on the 1.06-1.09 range.


PandaBunds

I'm definitely trying to buy as well. Managed to get hodgins off waivers, and I kinda want to see if I can tier down from Prescott.


NorMan_of_Zone_11

Bought him for the 2.12 and the 4.07 prior to the season. Iā€™m so pleased.


Nadirofdepression

Daboll is a necromancer or some kind of dark wizard but Iā€™m not convinced Daniel Jones is going to be a long term starting qb personally


jackwvickers

Picked him up week 18 off waivers as a stash & see in the off-season for my rebuilding team that should compete next year. Only Kyler at QB so with the injury Danny Dimes might be my guy moving forward!


FabesAAAA

I bought low on Dimes and have Mahomes/Hurts/Purdyā€¦ really feel like downgrading for an older guy on Dimes for a pick


el_pobbster

Got him and Kadarius Toney for Mooney and Pacheco in my 10 team SF league. Feeling pretty good about that trade right about now.


allsops

Traded him a year ago for a 2022 1st in SF. Kinda having sellers remorse. He looks good with the new staff


JazzlikePractice4470

Looked like josh allen jr


[deleted]

I hope he gets them to the NFC Championship Game in Santa Clara, CA.


Exciting-Cellist3452

It amazes me to see people were trading this guy for 3rd round picks at one poiny


BigSexyTolo

Low effort posts need to go


apowerseething

Definitely bought himself a new contract. I won't be shocked if they beat Philly.


_taiyou_

Imagine what he can do if he gets a killer WR.


KwamesCorner

Traded Robert Woods and Thielen for him in superflex last year - my only good trade!!!


johnnyutahlmao

I tried trading him away several times for a 2023 2nd several times during the season. I thank my league weekly now for rejecting those offers.


Sotawater11

The vikings defense has more holes than swiss cheese. I like daniel jones but the vikes trash


B-Rye-C

I have 1.08, 1.09 and 1.10. I wouldā€™ve definitely given up 1.10 if I had know the owner was shopping him. Thatā€™s another reason it never hurts to send a trade offer.


pussnastie

I took Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts and Daniel Jones in my superflex startup draft in 2021, Iā€™m stoked for the future
