Sometimes, people outthink themselves and start seeing things that aren't really there. I knew Drew Brees was dope when he was killing shyt in college at Purdue. Same with Russell Wilson before Wisconsin and there.

Water finds its level, always does. Coming into the draft, trubiskys player comparison was Ryan Tannehill. The league will catch up to the bears a bit this upcoming season. Daniel Jones is compared to Eli largely. I'm not from the tri-state area so my opinion of Eli isn't high to begin with.

I'm not going to speculate if the mental is right, I'm judging the production. #6 in the draft means that your team won games at times simply because of you. I'm not seeing that with this guy.

Dave Gettleman has a man crush on that white boy. That’s what it boils down to. He sees that white skin and tall frame and just sees professionalism. He also thinks Eli could play at a high level for another 3 years :russ:

As much as i wanna laugh at the Giants dumb asses, if it was up to Gettleman, Josh Allen would in NY.

I know but he wasn't considered a high draft pick until the week prior to the draft and then became a bust. Daniel Jones does have a pretty good passer rating and played some good competition in college. I still think it was a dumb pick for the Giants.

Akili was considered a high draft pick at the time the draft happend he was one of those combine dudes that shot up the chart to the top 10...The Bengals valued his potential but everyone that wasn't tim couch was shytted on....I still don't understand what it was about McNabb that turned the Bengals off because I wanted us to take him....Some how Akilis stock went up to the level of Couchs (I'm assuming the dude interviews well or something on top of turning up during the pro workout day) so he could of went anywhere from 1-10....And than the Eagles made the right pick and selected Mcnabb but we thought they were taking ricky Williams. Leaving Mcnabb or Akili to fall to us.....And of course our dumb assess turned down the Saints offer which was like all of their draft picks for Ricky Williams....This is why I always say we aren't ever going to be shyt we have no foresight we went and picked damn akili smith.

Bro would be a 5th round pick. No numbers to justify him going that high. He was a 0 star ranked recruit coming outta high school bruh.

If he was black, he is likely undrafted. That white privilege. Giants said they fell in love with him after watching how professional he was in three series in the senior bowl. :heh:

Pass on Dwayne Haskins for professionalism brehs. Since when does professionalism win you games? :heh:

That white privilege on full display.

I hope the Giants suffer in irrelevance until my son is starting college.....:heh:

My son is 10 months old:heh:

2-0 isn't bad for a 5th round pick

hopefully this is a lesson to people (we all know it wont be) but instead of reading a stat sheet and not only forming an opinion, which is debatable to begin with, but to make a holy declaration...yeah, i hope everyone that made an ABSOLUTE judgement, when you know damn well nobody watches dook football, FRY THEIR ASSES. ALL OF EM.

i dont eeem care it's only two games. if this was haskins or anyone a mofo liked, and the shoe were on the other foot, nobody would want to wait to be judge and jury on this guy.

all people had to do was say, "oh, i dont know. never seen him. looks questionable, we'll see."

THATS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

but all these excuses from preseason through 2 regular season starts, largely w/o the offense's biggest weapon while im sitting here watching murray throw 15 picks every week and nobody even talk about it... MAAAAAAAN, you cant gtfo my face fast enough.

max kellerman the only one owning up. everybody else either doubleing down, making lil fake ass funny we friends now declarations (NOPE), or straight up ignoring what we all see.

im still not sold on him completely, but ive had a level head about this from the jump, so i dont have to overcompensate for my reputation taking whats looking like a potential massive hit for some shyt i know damn well i had no 1st hand knowledge of.

Only reason I watched him at Duke was they were in our division in the ACC and we recruited him (early early). Funny thing is he always cooked us when playing us :mjcrygt:

Cutcliffe is a beast coach though.

My issue in this Daniel Jones saga is that no nikka with his credentials out of college is getting picked 6th overall. We'd be undrafted or late round at best. That's the privilege of looking the part.

I'll take my L shytting on him, but a lot of it was because of the privilege or being average/above average in college and getting taken high because of his cacicity. Not his fault and he's an athletic dude too.

I’m right there with you...I wasn’t predicting him to be a great player or anything, but in 2018 I watched him play against Temple and while they sucked he was making some great passes...and at that time some scouts had him going No. 2 in the draft

So I can honestly say I’m not really too shocked at how well he’s been playing...I pretty much definitely knew that he was going to be better than Eli when the gmen got him but I didn’t understand the outrage from people like Max Kellerman.

Now I was shocked that the Giants didn’t take Haskins over him, simply based on name brand—not on talent....I still thought that he was going in the 1st round...I could see it when he wracked up against TU.
