As Shurmur said, he wants an experienced. guy as a back-up QB. If they can find one that's better than Tanney, I think they'll sign him.

Can't be too hard to find someone with more experience and talent than Tanney. He does have a leg up after spending the entire summer here.
Cheers to another year of Eli as an iron man.

If they knew they were going to do this they could of inquired about Bridgewater who now has a new team backing up Brees in NO. What did they give up for him? Probably a low draft pick

Read somewhere that the Giants are bringing in Matt McGloin for visit.Is this true? Rather they bring in Connor Cook for a try out. Raiders were a bad fit and Gruden is dumping everyone too, as much as Gettleman, or moreso. Cook is a guy who actually has potential to be a decent QB one day. He was great at Michigan State, and was often compared to Eli as a prospect. Fans commenting on his release saying he got a raw deal be drafted by Oakland and that he has too much talent not to get onto another team. |

He was so good and a huge winner at MSU. i thought he was going to be a good pro. |

The FO realizes that Eli is Gumby (as some on here so affectionately refer to him as) and an iron man so rather than pay a lot of cash or spend a draft pick on someone like Bridgewater they rather get a run of the mill Backup on the cheap

He is just made of a synthetic rubbery substance with no skeleton........and no muscle mass.
yes that is Gumby-like. I will give you that.
But actually being "Gumby"? No sir.

IMO our team takes the “worst of both worlds” approach when it comes to QBs. And I don’t think in any case so far they have managed to develop a draft pick QB to the point where they could even recoup a late round pick. |

OK MS...thanks for "I will give you that" but actually someone else on here refers to Eli as Gumby. At the moment who that is eludes me...  |

I'm not going to argue with you TE but Webb and Nassib were Jerry's kids and we will have to see how Lauletta plans out...maybe Coach Shurmur can really make Lauletta into a good starting QB? |

OK then let's just say that Eli has characteristics like Gumby then, if that's OK with you? You are so fastidious... |

the Saints gave up a 3rd round pick. probably worth it for a competent backup When you compare it with the 5 picks we spent on Webb, Nassib and Lauletta it seems cheap doesn't it? |

With this many moves so far... I would believe a more ready QB could come in as back-up "if" this is a win now season.

Well I kinda thought giving Eli the vote of confidence and drafting Barkley at #2, then resigning Odell ( instead of trading him ) put them in a win now mode. But after watching all the cuts and waiver claims and movement after they announced so called final 53. They are clearly not in win now mode lol |

DG is cleaning house with almost all of JRs picks people. Why Is everyone acting shocked about all the cuts/waivers? He wants to win with his draft picks, his FA signings, his waiver pickups. All new regimes do this in pro sports. I could understand if the Giants had made the playoffs 4 of the past 5 yrs & he was cutting players left & right but this team has failed to make the playoffs 4 of the last 5.

They should take a look at Kaepernick. It'll hurt some fans' feelings, but the owners have to prioritize the winning of games over the feelings of some fans. I'm not saying Kap is a super star, but he's objectively better than many of the other options out there. It's foolish not to consider him.

I'm not saying Kap is a super star, but he's objectively better than many of the other options out there. It's foolish not to consider him. If that's the case, then we should have BEEN signed Eric Reid to play Free Safety. He is better than everything else we have trotted out in the last few seasons. We haven't had a decent FS since Will "smoke" Hill That guy could have been another kenny Phillips |
