00:00Adam, let's talk again about the New York Giants and Daniel Jones.
00:06They release him, and now he's going to be a pending free agent once he clears waivers.
00:09Nobody's going to pick up that current contract.
00:11When he does, we heard Daniel Jones talk about, instead of going to a place where I might
00:15actually be able to play right away, if that makes sense, I want to go to a playoff contender.
00:20Are there teams out there that he's trying to set up to get with?
00:22And also, what's the motive of, instead of playing this year, just going with a competent
00:26playoff contender just to be in a winning organization?
00:29Yeah, but Donny, here's why.
00:30First of all, he's not going, let's just, he's going to clear waivers tomorrow, that's
00:34when the deadline is.
00:37He'll clear, and here's the deal.
00:39There's zero chance he goes anywhere to be a starting quarterback this year.
00:42He could go in, okay, he could go in a situation, let's say the Raiders, right?
00:47He could go in and learn the scheme, and yes, he wouldn't walk in as a starter, but he legitimately
00:55could start by the end of the season.
00:58His guard dementia was not played as well as they had hoped.
01:00We know that O'Connell, Aiden O'Connell, is on injured reserve due to his wrist injury.
01:05So yeah, he could go there and just try to get some starts in, and maybe give Tom Telesco,
01:10the general manager of his personnel control, some hope that maybe he could have Sonny be
01:13in the mix again.
01:14But the Raiders guys, they're on my list.
01:17They're looking for an answer.
01:18They're not looking for a temporary answer to the quarterback.
01:19They want a long-term answer.
01:21Now, let's look at the other situation here.
01:25For Daniel Jones, the reality is he'd be better off going somewhere he could be the
01:30backup to a starter, and if that starter gets hurt, maybe potentially play.
01:34But go somewhere where he could be a backup on a very good football team, like the Niners.
01:38By the way, Brandon Allen did not play well when he had a chance to play.
01:42He's going to play well, as we know.
01:43He's going to start at least this game today at Green Bay.
01:46They got Josh Jobs, who, by the way, did a great job until he kind of struggled a little
01:50bit.
01:51But look, you saw what he did with the Cardinals and the Vikings guys.
01:53So that's a team to look at.
01:56You kind of bounce around Baltimore.
01:58They got the journeyman Josh Johnson, who's almost been with a third of the league.
02:02So there are going to be some opportunities out there, Donnie, to answer your question.
02:06And again, he would not go anywhere he could come and start right away.
02:09There's no chance of that happening.
02:10It's going to come down to this.
02:12Being with a winning team, learning that scheme, and potentially being resigned versus going
02:17somewhere and maybe getting a few starts in by the end of the season.
