Last year, there were 62 different quarterbacks that started a game last year... That's 2 per team... That's crazy... Hope this bug doesn't hit the Seahawks... *Knock-on-wood*

It seems more and more injuries in the NFL drown teams, and it's especially impactful since it seems who stays healthy wins the race. Baseball doesn't count because those guys don't do anything. And soccer players fake 99.9% of their injuries... I guess you could count NBA but after LeFlop nobody trusts them... I still think NFL injuries are the worst and legit. *nods quietly*

What i mean is when they started to open it up a little in the late 2nd half he played well. He did not cost them the game and was solid. The moment wasn't to big for him and he looked comfortable out there and played well. This man was sitting on the Bench all year. In his two starts he completed 44 of 64 ( 68.8% completions ) for a average of 238.5 yards per game and a rating over 90 in both those games. He has a nice arm also and you could see how much better he was playing with the time to sit that he had. It really helped Lock a lot and you could see the growth. There was NO DOUBT he was a better QB than he was before. If he takes another step this year he takes over the Giants starting possition if he doesnt out right win it.
He won't win the starting gig this year but if Danny Dimes is awful, they could cut him pre june 2025 and take a 22mil dead money 19 mil cap savings and possibly resign Lock to 1yr prove it deal/starter.

I think if Jones is awful, the Giants are using a top 5 pick on a QB. Not sure what they do with DJ, maybe take the dead cap by cutting him as you say. I doubt Lock gets a starting gig. He is a solid back-up and maybe spot starter at this point, imo. Not much more.

If Giants take a QB in the top 5, DJ gets traded for trash or cut.

I agree. Likely cut because I don't see any teams trading away even a mid to late round pick for him when they could sign him after being cut. The Giants and Raiders will both be looking for a QB in the draft. I won't be surprised if they both try to trade up to get Beck depending on where they finish. Their defenses and those odd good games from Jones and Minshew will likely keep them from landing in that top spot, I think. I'm looking at the Patriots maybe being in the driver's seat next spring. Of course, anything is possible between now and then. It's just a hunch I have.
