Drew Lock has only started 23 games in his career. I say we give him 60 starts and then compare him to Dan Jones. It's only fair, right?
Absolute insanity the New York Football Giants have given a bum like Dan Jones that many starts unchallenged. About time we draft or bring in a QB to be compete with him.. I just hope it's a fair competition

If DJ can't be ready by opening day maybe Lock starts the first few games. But I don't think it's going to be an open competition no matter what they say. You think Mara is going to have a 5 mil dollar QB start and a 40 mil plus QB sitting on the bench if he's healthy.
DJ plays and we all feel he gets hurt again and that injury clause comes into effect and screws us up even more so on the cap next year. Mara, Schoen, Dabol, and all the fans all might be leaping off a ledge as this season progresses.
We should be 1 of the first 5 picks in the draft again next year. Eventually we should be good making all these early draft picks you would think. Still don't see any light at the end of the tunnel.

Of course he’s got a great shot at starting.
This should be surprising to no one.
Dabs and JS are in the last two years of their contract. They’re going to be worried about outcomes not proving out the DJ contract.
2 new experienced starters on the o line, new o line coach, Nabers/Slayton/Robinson/Hyatt, draft picks at TE and RB, Singletary (who’s great at pass pro).
The starting QB will be the guy that helps that group score the most.

Other teams only wish they had to choose between Lock and Jones, what a fortunate problem to have, we’re the envy of the league.

But they won’t keep putting him in there if he’s struggling and the team is losing. They’ll eventually hand the ball over. I don’t think Seattle’s GM made up the conversation JS had with Lock, and I don’t think they lied to him. But you’re absolutely right, they’re not battling each other in camp for a job. |

Drew Lock has a shot... If Jones gets injured.
There will be no real competition in camp.

I’m playing the guy I’m paying $40 mil. Why so he can show you more of the same before getting hurt, costing the team 40m against the cap for 2025 season. I say let him and Lock compete for the starting position in a fair manner. Don't just give it to DJ like they have been doing for the past 5 years. |

Daniel Jones is the starter when healthy. They need to see what they have in him. He was worth giving $40m a year, is he worth that going forward? They need to find out.
Lock has a chance at the starting job because A) Jones might not be ready game 1, B) Jones could get injured and C) Jones could be a shell shocked failure that gets replaced in week 5.

They should start the QB that is the best.. Thats if they want to win a few games. If not start Jones and prep for the top 5 in 2025

Drew Lock has a shot... If Jones gets injured. There will be no real competition in camp. And the op turned a "real shot" into a "great chance." IMO, it's DJs job to lose. If he's not healthy or doesn't perform of course Lock will play. But until that happens it's DJs job. I mean, the way injuries kill this team every year, devito has a real shot to start 😑 |

I’m playing the guy I’m paying $40 mil. With that kind of logic, the 9ers should have stuck with Trey Lance instead of going with Brock Purdy. You play your best player, period. No matter what your investment is. |

I liked Lock when he was drafted. I dont GAF who starts as long as its the QB who is playing the best.
With that said Jones will get the priority but his leash will be very short. Even at 40m he will get the hook pretty quick.

He couldn't care less about the 12million injury clause. JM wants to prove he was right about Jones. |

Let the better man win. But exactly what "sickntired" is saying is what's going to happen. The 40 mil dollar man starts. Then of course when the team is run into the ground then they'll give Lock a shot. Or else Lock gets his shot if and when DJ goes down and we get stuck with a 40 mil dollar hit for the 2025 season. But it's evident with the draft were going with DJ. |

Jones will be starting opening day and all season long. He says he's right on schedule.

Kind of funny, when I said there was no need to draft a QB because we had Drew Lock and he can start if needed I was laughed at...now fans think it's a good idea, haha.
But if Jones is healthy, he will start week 1 as reported by Mike Garafolo.
Garafolo: Expect Daniel Jones to be Giants' Week 1 starter in 2024 | 'The Insiders'
Guys like Rich Eisen are reporting otherwise, but he's the same guy that said we would draft JJ McCarthy and in his opinion even trade up for JJ...he should attach his red clown nose.

Mara cares about one thing getting this team winning if Lock does get a chance and comes in and moves the offense makes it competent and wins or keeps them competitive Jones is gone on the bench and cut next year |

Still doesn't make it a great situation to have a guy that has been a bottom three passer for 4 out of 5 seasons and a loser in those 4 seasons the only year he wasn't a loser he was average at best this needs to be addressed still, this year they didn't not have the opportunity they didn't like the options in front of them. I thought they should draft Nabors if Maye Daniels and Williams were gone as predicted, Jones will get his 3rd coaching staff fired if he continues being who he is a guy who try's hard but never seems to get results, something the Giants seem to be willing to risk or are hoping Lock finds a work ethic and learns the playbook and can execute the offense at a high level |
