Damn Looks like "patience" didn't pay off and they should have offered their best deal a bit earlier. I wonder what that would have been? If they wanted a safety badly so maybe swap 1sts, 2019 2nd and Tartt? Plus maybe a pick next year? I mean obviously the deal could have easily been done if the #2 pick was on the table but they wanted the keep it, or at the very least have the Giants #6 pick if they had to give up #2.

I thought we were NEVER in the running for OBJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissooner49er Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Old news. Let's move on. I rather like having the 2nd overall pick and hope it impacts our D tremendously (whether we stay at 2 or trade down). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not collusion. It's just one team choosing to make a deal with another team that is not us. Seems like a lot of it was due to the gettleman/Dorsey relationship and I suspect some of it was because they knew Odell wanted to be in sunny California (that interview he did with Lil Wayne, he specifically said he liked sunshine in response to 'are you happy in NY?'). Also they sent him to the AFC. The raiders chose not to have Khalil mack in the Bay area, I can understand their reasoning as well. In the same breath, the Patriots chose San Francisco as the place they would send Garoppolo. So stuff like this evens out sometimes. Garoppolo >>>> mack or Odell (didn't have the ammo for both) Not sure why you are taking what I am saying to the extreme and then adding a bunch of sarcastic exclamation marks? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garoppolo >>>> mack or Odell (didn't have the ammo for both) Not sure why you are taking what I am saying to the extreme and then adding a bunch of sarcastic exclamation marks? Don't confuse New York's incompetence here of not doubling back to Lynch as the Giants not wanting to do a deal with Lynch or every team preferring to trade their play elsewhere. I'm sorry, but we aren't relevant enough for teams to act that way. If you want to say maybe the Raiders because of the Bay Area rivalry? I could buy that somewhat. However, has it ever dawned upon you that possibly Lynch likes to slow play things in negotiations and doesn't initially give a good enough offer? The Giants very well may just have wanted two first round picks this year regardless and didn't weren't interested in getting a 2020 1st rounder? And if Lynch made it clear to them, and I am sure he did, that the #2 pick was off the table. And again, fair play to him. Not going to kill him for that even if I would have traded the #2 pick for OBJ considering we had the Ford trade in our back pocket. But what I am not going to do is give Lynch a pass every time we miss out on a player and he goes to a radio station and says we had the best offer or this team didn't want to trade him to us blah blah blah. We are not the damn Patriots for teams to be going out of their way to make sure we don't get better. Maybe Lynch just needs to switch up the way he does things and put out better offers earlier in the process. Slow playing it doesn't always work.

Yeah, I think a fresh outlook on life and some time away from football this offseason hopefully helped to center his mind and clear the trauma that he went through. Also, having a position coach that's actually interested in using him correctly and might actually be an advocate for him will really help, too. Just put Thomas beside Buckner and let those two collapse the pocket every down. We've seen time after time where Thomas knifes in to make a stop in the backfield, or at the very least, disrupt the play and allow someone else to make the stop. JUST PLAY THE MAN 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think quite simply, they wanted him out of the NFC all together. So as soon as a AFC team came along with a offer they liked, they jumped on it. Gettlemen is a train-wreck waiting to happen anyway so that was probably his line of thinking....'screw the best offer, I don't want him in my conference so he can stick it to me every 3 years, let's just ship him to the AFC'. I'm going to enjoy him running that franchise into the ground... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
