Nussmeier is awfulRabidraider wrote: Sun Dec 28, 2025 7:04 am I like the LSU QB Garrett Nussmeier better than Simpson after Mendoza. Moore isn't even in the conversation for me.
Garrett will end up going to New Orleans with his father the OC.

If the Giants win today, they have large motivation to lose next week (they would pick at #2 at worst, and #1 if we win). I they win their last 2, very likely they would end up picking at #6

If I’m not mistaken, the Jets, and everyone with 3 wins (aside from the Giants) SOS is now better than us, meaning that even with a win vs KC, we can only drop as low as 2—Cleveland winning today really helped.

I dunno, they showed up today. I think their interim coach is auditioning to have the interim tag removed. You never know with divisional games.Raider Nation wrote: Sun Dec 28, 2025 3:08 pm If the Giants win today, they have large motivation to lose next week (they would pick at #2 at worst, and #1 if we win).

Meaning even if we beat KC and Dante Moore declares, were guaranteed a chance at either him or Mendoza..Cruisin with Tooz wrote: Sun Dec 28, 2025 4:04 pm No. If we beat KC and giants lose to Dal. We drop to #2.

Yeah, read an analysis of the pros and cons, money wise, of coming out vs staying for a top pick and it’s still better to enter the draft.HesterLayes wrote: Sun Dec 28, 2025 4:23 pm I know he makes bank at Oregon,but no way he doesn’t come out considering he is top 3 at the worst

NP, man...the thing I'm unsure of concerning these young QBs is that Mendoza seems to be a great kid, but other than his football talent, I really don't don't know much about their character...and that goes a VERY along with me.
I remember when we drafted Marinovich and when I saw him perform in his first pre-season game I was sure we had found our next starting QB. Then his immaturity was exposed and drug use was reported...I couldn't believe what a train wreck he became.

The best thing to happen now is Giants beat Dallas and we beat the Chiefs!
