I think that's a terrible move. There is no way I would do that. Glad he's not our GM.

Whats the number? Who's got the number?

Found 6.62M. Sound right?

It's not that they don't trust him, he wanted major cash and they don't want to risk losing him. They want to get a long term deal with him, but he probably wants top 3 running back money.

I hate Jacobs, but when he's healthy, the guy is an absolute beast. If he could stay healthy, he would be one of the best in the league.

You think this will affect Jacob's on-field play? I don't see how this is a bad move at all from a business stand point.

I think for guys with Jacobs running style, they only last a few good years - typically.

I wouldn't give Jacobs a massive long-term contract. I'm sure the Giants could find a very RB in the draft, if necessary, to replace him down the line.

I don't think Jacobs is a franchise RB.

Not at all. He's great once he gets his feet moving but he dances behind the line and runs pretty soft for a big fella. Plowing Landry was impressive but I've seen him on the other side of that plenty of times.

Like when?

I can't think of one time he didn't fall forward except when Roy knocked the ball out of his arms at the goalline.

This wont effect his on field play, but he will be gone ASAP. He admitted as much on Rome is Burning during the week leading up to superbowl.

We franchised Ken Hamlin, do you wish we had a different GM as well?
