News: PFT: Stephen Jones on trade for Trey Lance: I don't regret that at all

[exciter]

The Giants just released a top 10 drafted QB. Other teams can admit their mistakes, and take appropriate action. This team can't because we have malignant narcissists running it.

Good on you for enabling more of this to continue. You are truly a super fan.

Lol wow!
Lance had played a whopping total of 4 games and missed the rest of his 2nd season with a foot injury and still on his rookie contract when the trade was made.

Jones has been starting for 6 seasons, received a 2nd 160m contract after his only winning season 9-6-1 and has a career 22-44-1 record.
Trying to make a comparison of the twos careers trajectory as even remotely similar is nothing short of delusional!

Not resigning Lance is the appropriate action… still doesn’t detract from the fact is that it was well worth the risk!

He used a FIRST round pick on a big fat sissy creampuff DT that doesn't even like playing football, whose pushed backwards by a stiff breeze.

What does Jerruh care about a 4th round pick? He'd wipe his butt with a 4th round pick, ( if he still had control of his bowels that is.)

And had looked awful in every game he played. The 49ers recognized he was a bust and traded him. The Cowboys arrogantly thought they could fix him and overpaid. Right now this team has a crippling lack of talent on the offensive side of the ball so trading a mid round pick to, at best, upgrade the backup QB is a stupid move.

29 years without a Super Bowl win or even an appearance or even a conference championship game appearance ..

It's really funny how the Jones family has never had a single regret for any of their decisions.

Except when it comes to things Jerry lies about doing in the past that justifes not spending money or improving the team.

Based on Jerry’s draft history (every 4 years or so) chances are much better than average they had that pick ear marked for a QB anyway and went into the evaluation.
The way the draft has evolved over drafting the position than would mean you’re taking a 6th-UDFA talent in the 4th!
But yeah, the team is void of offensive talent because they didn’t have a 4th round pick which carries a league wide 10-15% hit rate!

 

[SultanOfSix]

Why would Stephen regret this? Didn’t everyone say Jerry took the opportunity on his own?

 

[Mr_437]

The last paragraph of the article summed it up, and Jerry can try to make it sound good but it was a dumb compounded by and even dumber move of extending Dak.

Fun part is next season we can attempt to justify spending another 4th round for nothing this season.

It was never worth risk. Kid barely started in HS.

Sure it was or the #3 overall pick wouldn’t have been dropped on him from the beginning!

Not it was not. That is why the Niners punted on 3rd down.

 

[KingintheNorth]

3rd pick in the 1st round vs a 4th.

3rd pick who had shown the league what he could and more importantly could not do.

This wasn't an unknown.

A few teams were offering a 7th round pick for Lance. Just like with Mingo, Jerry overpaid because he doesn't put in the work that a typical GM does and there are no consequences for his awful football decisions.

Plus, his contract was expiring the same time as Dak's. They also acquired him after Training Camp meaning they would not have him for their own training camp before they had to decide on the 5th year option.

A stupid, silly trade made by a moron. His incompetent son Stephen Jones signing off on it only tells you that Front Office has zero accountability or any clue how to build an NFL roster that can compete for championships.

when it comes to a QB ..the most key important position in the NFL ....i'd don't mind nor regret a mere mid round pick for a QB.

what i do regret is that this is current coaching staff of McCarthy is very ill-suited to be developing a Trey Lance ...

I had my skeptics to if QB guru Kyle Shanahan could not develop Lance ...and essentially gave up on him,.. then what was stale, Bland
Mike McCarthy & crew chances of developing Lance gonna be ,...?

But another man's trash is another man's treasury ..?
