Spending trh moenybthe giants did to draft a 3rd qb would be weird

Everyone else is overpaid as a 3rd qb

Just a weird situation

Browns just aren’t a bad roster besides their qb situation

I am perfectly fine not going QB in the 1st or 2nd. Not a fan of this class in general.

Wait till the 3rd or 4th and use a flyer on Howard or another guy.

Guess is they take one sooner but agree if they want to wait have at it. No need to draft one they are not really sold on (at least at 2 or 33).

and for the love of God if trading up not to 22.

You guys getting McCord would be hilarious to me

That would be awful

if we are talking 4th round-ish? It's whatever. Him or Howard (or someone like them) just a dart throw.

If anyone didn't already know....Tyreek Hill is the biggest POS in the league

Why because of the domestic squabble? Eh, we don't even know what happened or what she may have done to instigate it. Don't know what was said, etc. Just another one of those, "Domestic issue between man and woman" MAN BAD, WOMAN INNOCENT AND GOOD! Mother in law called it in because she 'feared for their lives?' He threw a laptop.. so? He can afford another one - prob. bought it for her in the first place. What did she do to escalate it to that point? Sounds like based on the audio Hill is pretty pissed off the mother in law implied he was going to the balcony to throw the baby off... that's just a flat out lie.

They're in the middle of a divorce, sounds like the mother (who lives with them) and the daughter are in it for the good ol' money grab... skeptical to side with those gold diggers at this point.

I haven't heard anything but speculation, but if you have more info. feel free to share.

These days I'm more inclined to side with the man... women know they have all the power and are conniving and sneaky these days when money is involved. I know there are some real animal men out there, but auto siding with the whoman is CRAP these days, ESPECIALLY when money is involved.

If this was a one off situation then I would agree. The fact that we have multiple documented issues of the same story involving different women each time and Tyreek being the common denominator in the situation makes one believe he is the main problem. I'm not saying his wife is a saint, but it is clear at this point that Tyreek Hill is not a good person and at best let's his anger get the best of him causing him to throw and break things in front of his kids and at worst he is an abuser that uses his position and money to keep from being in jail.

Oh has this happened multiple times? I don't know the full history - hence my last point.

Good points....Guess both things can be true. Hill a D or not a good person but maybe in THIS instance we really don't know the entire story.

Hill is definitely not a good guy as has done some bad things we know he did.....but in general agreed with that rant of yours.

He was arrested in college on Domestic Abuse charges. He choked and punched his pregnant girlfriend in the stomach. He then got kicked out of OSU because of the incident.

In 2019 there was an investigation about child abuse. His son had broken his arm and there was speculation Hill had done it to his son during a moment of anger towards his then fiance and son. Charges were dropped, but because of a lack of evidence not because he was actually proven innocent. There is a recording of his fiance at the time talking about how Hill would punish his child by making him hold his arms out and then Hill punching him in the chest. He also told his fiance she should be terrified of him and what he can do to her.

In 2023 he had assault charges brought against him for slapping the back of the head of a boat captain that was angry with Hill and his guests boarding his boat before they were allowed to do so. Hill eventually settled out of court with the victim.

Hill in early 2024 had another lawsuit brought up after he broke the leg of a woman during a friendly football game where he got upset and charged at her.

And now we have this latest incident. Most of these cases have ended in Hill paying money to someone to keep quiet in the situation and drop charges.

And I do agree...I think part of the problem is the people that Hill continues to surround himself with leading to him being put in a very bad situation. He is still responsible for his own actions once he is in the situation, but the reality is he needs to surround himself with some people that are going to actually lift him up instead of actively be a part of getting him in trouble.

Atlanta handed Kirk Cousins a $160M contract and still drafted their guy.

A team like the Giants especially might have been loading up assuming their guy wouldnt be there.

At no point in any way does Russell Wilson or Jameis Winston change draft plans these days.

 

[cdumler7]

Derek Carr might be missing the entire season now. Makes QB seem even more likely for the Saints now.

Wow. I wonder if the Saints might trade up for Shedeur now? I wonder what they do if they top 2 QBs (Ward and Shedeur) are off the board when they pick?

Tough telling but this honestly might have a big time ripple effect throughout the draft. Teams like the Giants and Browns knowing really good chance now that the Saints take a QB whether that be Shedeur or Jaxson Dart and the Steelers possibly taking the other could mean if you don't take Sanders early then you are probably out on QB this year. I think there were a couple of those teams that had the thought of take Hunter/Carter early then maybe trade back into the 1st and take one of Dart or Sanders.

So then the ripple effect begins if Giants say take Sanders. Now Carter/Hunter fall to pick 4 and what do the Patriots do? Are they still leaning OT at that point or taking one of them, or do they get themselves a nice trade with a team desperate to get a blue chip guy?

Agreed, it will be really interesting, if the Browns or G-Men take Sanders then what the Pats do at 4 will be very interesting, but if the Browns/G-Men pass on Sanders and take Carter/Hunter then will someone trade up to 4 and grab Sanders? Very interesting

At the same time, I don’t think the Saints were expecting to compete this year. Their best plan might entail a tank of this season and an early choice in next year’s draft which is apparently QB heavy.

I hope the browns and giants aren’t that stupid
