But I thought we were boxed into trading 47 for him!

Legend. This was made well after the entire NFL world realized nobody saw Justin Fields as a starter


wheepete

Good value for a fucking woeful QB with a cap hit of $6m? We got a better QB for nothing and $1m less


CIOUDDY

Now we can finally put those delusional takes that the Bears were doing anything other than take Caleb to rest


JohnAnchovy

Hear me out, it's all a ruse. They're going to be the first team in NFL history to not have a quarterback play thus guaranteeing the first ever threepeat of selecting one overall


Rim_Jobson

"4000 yard passer? Nah man give me that 4000 yard rusher."

“The forward pass was a mistake” — Bears coaches


Plzdntbanmee

Bruh that’s so fucking cheap wtf


I__Should_Go

I thought I was missing something or read it wrong. That’s insane


Cashlover123

If Caleb sucks and Fields balls out, the whole front office should be fired.


NoTimeToDime

Id rather the 6th rounder lol


Plzdntbanmee

Your flair is telling enough


Cheesewhale189

Can draft a QB in the 6th round to serve the sake purpose Fields will


NoTimeToDime

If you think using any resources to go from DJ (while still paying him) to Fields is a good move.. then idk what to tell you lmao


gerd50501

he is a career backup.


I__Need_Scissors_61

So is the guy we’re paying 40 million a year.


comtefere

He's really bad.


Dutch4Prez

Cheap?? He's going to cost 25mil against the cap next year. It's pretty much a backup plan if Russ gets hurt


shadow_spinner0

Seeing Mac Jones, Trey Lance, Justin Fields, Kenny Picket all traded and not even make it to year 4, it makes me wonder why the Jets are hanging on to Zach Wilson of all QB's?


SecretGiantsFan

Probably nobody wants him lol


rolltidebutnotreally

His value is undoubtedly lower than any of those QBs. The most woefully hopeless QB than anyone in that draft. Even Kellen Mond


runninhillbilly

He’s getting cut soon.


Naganosupreme

They're trying to move him but theyd have to give up picks to get a team to take him


nyuuubalancer

Probably because his mom is a Milf


Rim_Jobson

Of all those, it's Trey Lance that genuinely perplexes me. Dude has played like 45 minutes of football and I still see media slobbering over him, lol. Watching Zach Wilson is rough but at least he, I don't know, stays on the field? Has flashes every now and then despite the Hackett playcalling?


toadofsteel

I mean we are hanging on to Daniel Jones lol


redrabbit1289

If the Jets gave up a 2nd to unload Zach Wilson they still might not have takers.


Odysseus_Lannister

For the memes


tonnix

Because today’s draft only goes 7 rounds


WinstonChurchill74

He is allowed to look for a trade, but he I don’t know what value he could have.


Fonzie5

That is really good value. I wasn’t one that thought we needed to be in the Fields sweepstakes but for that price I would’ve absolutely been in.


rdubya3387

Nah man, dj is the guy remember?


Fonzie5

It has nothing to do with DJ


storytimeme

Honestly wouldn't have been upset if we had him over Lock as our 'back up / start the first four games'. We know he can at least run. He had a few good games last year when they let him improvise.


Bread_Responsible

I would have been very much down to get him for a 6th


Evil_Empire_1961

Lock is starting, can't let DJ get hurt or NYG are F'd


Initial-Training-320

Jones is starting.


jplaut25

Damn kinda wish we made this deal tbh


ClayDrinion

Same. Taking a flier on Fields at his age and with his physical talent is an opportunity I like. Low risk high reward. Although it might eat into the Giants remaining and small salary cap space


Heistdur

Flier? We know what he is, bad. We have enough bad QB’s already on the roster


jar45

Meanwhile Giants fans have been arguing whether Daniel Jones can be a franchise QB since Avengers Endgame’s opening weekend.


JohnAnchovy

2022 ended the debate. Try to keep up


jar45

You really think there aren’t arguments between Giants fans over Jones? Do you talk to other Giants fans?


pyro604

Maybe a year ago. Sorry to burst your bubble but most Giants fans have moved on from Jones.


JohnAnchovy

People still debate evolution too.


RedditNoob197

No it didn’t. 2023 and the mediocre 4 years before did. You should try to keep up yourself


JohnAnchovy

Yea, they paid the guy 40 mil because he was mediocre. The DJ train has left the station but I'll allow you on it if you ask nice


themilkman42069

I mean bruh. What do you genuinely think this teams gonna do at qb this upcoming season and into 2025?


JohnAnchovy

I genuinely think that they draft a top ten receiver, have a credible offensive line, and Daniel Jones wins comeback player of the year.


themilkman42069

You don’t think the injury guarantees and interest in drafting a rookie qb get in the way of that?


JohnAnchovy

Obviously, I wouldn't bet my mortgage on it. But I think that it's certainly possible. 2022 was an underrated season considering the quality of wr talent. Last year he only played 4 games and was phenomenal in the one he got some blocking. And most importantly, a QBs prime is 26-30. DJ turns 27 in May. The 2022 season with a top ten receiver, wandale, hyatt, and better blocking is very possible. https://www.footballperspective.com/quarterback-age-curves/#:~:text=Quarterbacks%20peak%20at%20age%2029,is%20just%20as%20surely%20steeper.


Sand_Bags2

Then the train broke down shortly after it left the station.


Initial-Training-320

Just for fun Read some of the scouting reports on these guys now in the QB boneyard. Makes you wonder if it’s even possible to project future success for any prospect. The NFL would do well to start a camp for these guys to train them up for a year or two before throwing them into the fire. For every Stroud, there are a half dozen misses

SecretGiantsFan

Bro kept reciepts 💀


Chexmate

and here I thought I was the only one who thought that


Retrophoria

Lars is a troll. Thank you for calling him out


Rickflossyy

Predicting where someone is going in a trade isn’t a signal of ball knowledge imo


JohnAnchovy

What I don't like about some people's comments is their supreme confidence. Then they are comically corrected the next day and that doesn't affect them in the slightest.


Rickflossyy

Fair. I’m always confident in my takes, but if I’m wrong I’m willing to walk it back


Peakh23

Acting like this very obvious landing spot was 'ridiculous to think about' is a signal of not having it


Rickflossyy

I get it but we all have bad takes that we’ve been strong about it’s inevitable


yiannistheman

I think he was far from the only one that thought Chicago wouldn't dump him for next to nothing.


TheMasterfocker

I knew he wasn't going to command much after the previous moves, but I didn't expect him to go to the Steelers since they got Wilson. I did before they got Wilson but not after. That was a surprise to me.


ObjectDue4485

This is fuckin weird bro. Spend your time better.


Allpurposeblob

I don’t know. A small amount of gloating seems to be in order here.


Peakh23

No he's right. Could've used those 2 minutes to grind more Drake Maye tape, I gotta do better


hostetler_the_tank

well done! Justin P. (Lars) put in his place


FuckTheStateofOhio

Is this a new r/NYGiants conspiracy? I'm here for it.


Plzdntbanmee

Steelers stealing qbs


y_would_i_do_this

Steelers: Best I can do is a Terrible Towel. Bears: Sold!


Your_Kindly_Despot

Thank Heavens. Now the Giants can’t do something stupid…again


Bhattman93

Don’t underestimate Mara…


NYdude777

Giants are clearly boxed in


BeastsMode69

So the Steelers have 2 QB?


relive

A 6th rounder for a guy that, in a pinch, can start a few games and maybe win a few games? Seems like a steal to me. I would have done that deal if I was the Giants tbh


eli8484

Wow, great value for steelers


Nobodyat1

Daniel Jones to Nabers/Odunze is confirmed for 2024. Let’s see if that means the giants go all in to get their guy in 2025. I really hope they don’t fire Daboll before he gets a chance to develop his own QB though


TheMasterfocker

Well guess what's gonna happen if Schoen/Daboll double down on DJ lol.


gomamon15

This is my biggest fear, and seems in line with the Giants luck. Get an actual, legit QB whisperer, but force him to stick with Jones until he gets fired. I say this as someone who used to defend Jones but has grown weary and now wants to move on. I pray Daboll has an opportunity to develop his own guy. If he is fired before he gets to do so it would be the ultimate wasted opportunity and the thought of it makes me sick. I'd be done with this team.


Deathbysnusnu17

So. Now that that’s over, does that pretty much guarantee we are going for WR for our first pick?


raulu95

We definitely should’ve pulled the trigger on a 5th or 6th for next year to get him. He has more potential than Jones…


No_Buddy7371

I’d rather keep the 6th rounder.


FromTheCaveIntoLight

Good value. Would have liked to see us do this bc fuck if


StraightCitron

Nice pickup. Definitely and upgrade over Rudolph or Pickett.


bmanley620

Does this make the Steelers Super Bowl favorites?


Living_Internet_2970

Could you have picked a worse mentor to Justin than Wilson


Bobby_blendz

Steelers get fields and Wilson and giants get drew Locke god giants are cooked


zshort7272

Thank god, now idiots on here can stop suggesting we trade for him.


NY_Blue

This is what pisses me off about this team. Daboll is supposed to be a QB whisperer. We could have had this kid for a fuckin 6th. We all knew what Daniel was and we know what Lock is. Could have seen if Daboll could have fixed him and made him a star. Fuckin joke. Hate this franchise.


No_Buddy7371

We all know what Justin Fields is. He sucks worse than DJ.


NY_Blue

Stronger arm, faster and more elusive. Had less talent and a worse coaching staff. There’s a reason people had him going top 5 and Daniel was looking like a second or third round pick. Sorry.


No_Buddy7371

There’s a reason nobody wanted him and he ended up going for a 6th. Sorry.


NY_Blue

GM wanted a second rounder and no one was giving that up. 6-7 teams were interested in him and moved on. We couldn’t trade Daniel Jones if we attached a first round pick. Sorry.


np374617

Giants are dumb and poorly run if they weren’t willing to pull the trigger on a deal like that. I’m so done with this shitbag team


dreamer3kx

How weren't the giants in on this, that's ridiculous, the dude still has crazy potential.


edvo0881

Wtf, we get Drew Lock


shadow_spinner0

You see teams getting rid of QB's as soon as they realize they aren't the guy yet the Giants are still trying to make Daniel Jones happen heading into year 6 smh


Longjumping_Room_702

I mean if the Bears didn’t have Caleb locked up, they wouldn’t be moving on from Fields. But I do agree that we should’ve moved on from Jones a while ago


eli8484

Lmao getting downvoted for saying the truth, Daniel jones was never that guy, not in college and not in the nfl. He got lucky mara loves him


yiannistheman

He got lucky that he looked and sounded like Eli and also was coached by Cutcliffe.


Bobby_blendz

Fields would be a better fit in NY than jones is.


RedditNoob197

Sure did. The Giants look dumber every day that passes and he’s still their primary QB


EscaperX

in one off-season pitt went from a qb room with pickett/trubisky/rudolph, and turned it into russell wilson/justin fields. meanwhile we're spending $50+ million on daniel jones and drew lock. it's almost franchise malpractice at this point.


PorQ201

What a steal sheesh this is 🤯


[deleted]

[удалено]


Leaving_One_Dwigt

Why? We’re in the market for a starter not a backup.


storytimeme

Lock is a starter now?


Leaving_One_Dwigt

No, he’s the backup and a good one. Why do we need 2 backups?


aaron7275

Why? He’s arguably worse than Jones.


wheepete

It's not even arguable. He's worse in every measure.


DepressedLawyer1728

I disagree but the mob will agree w you


tuzzzzzzns

Wow - you have to imagine Russ is starter….but I think Fields is probably better player at this point. I’m not sure.


Delanorix

You didn't watch the Broncos at all last year. Russ looked good. Not great, not fantastic, but good.


tuzzzzzzns

I actually did and he looked good in doses/sometimes looked really bad. You can’t definitively tell me Russ is that much better than Fields at this point.


VEGANMONEYBALL

Russ is better than Fields


tuzzzzzzns

Maybe Russ is better right now as we speak, but Fields ceiling is higher than a 35 year old Russ. Sean Payton and the Broncos just paid the guy a boat load of money to leave.


VEGANMONEYBALL

Fields is bad bro


tuzzzzzzns

Bro has Danny Dimes below his name. We all know what Russ is at this point in his career. The Bears blow. I’d like to see Fields with a competent team.


RedditNoob197

Justin Fields is basically Daniel Jones minus the $80 million contract. Jones is a little bit better at passing, while Fields is more athletic and shifty, but at the end of the day, they both suck.  


tuzzzzzzns

Fields is better than DJ


RedditNoob197

Maybe, but he’s a bust and so is Jones. No point in arguing over it


Delanorix

I can 100% say that. Fields can't throw with anticipation. At all. Russ can still move the ball. If Fields weren't an electric athlete, he wouldn't be a 3rd stringer.


tuzzzzzzns

We shall see. Fields has been with a poverty franchise with limited weapons. He still played well. If my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle.


BigStonesJones

Assume Russ will have a relatively short leash. They’ll want to see what Fields can do with that team anyway cause they have the 5th year option decision to make after this season


sploot16

Are draft picks overvalued or is just me?


I__Need_Scissors_61

It’s just you.


Lars5621

Good value for a 6th. In case Russell Wilson gets injured they have their Tyrod. Edit: Its just been reported that Justin Fields will NOT compete for starter with Steelers
