The New York Giants are Interested in Trading for 49ers QB Mac Jones

The New York Giants are interested in trading for Mac Jones, according to Adam Schefter. He just came out with this article a few minutes ago. Here is the full list of quarterbacks the Giants are interested in potentially trading for or acquiring. Mac Jones, Justin Fields, J.J. McCarthy, Gardner Minshew, and Jimmy Garoppolo, who is currently a free agent. Keep in mind, Jackson Dart, Torres ACL, going to be out for the entire regular season, might come back for the playoffs. But he is their franchise quarterback, at least I think he is. So it doesn't seem like the Giants are looking to bring in someone to replace him long term. These are a bunch of backup quarterbacks. Although Mac Jones, I really think, is more of like a starter. But still, he's lumped in here with a bunch of backup quarterbacks, rentals, Band-Aids, and Jimmy Garoppolo, who's the ultimate rental Band-Aid. I don't even know if he still wants to play football. I guess he does. I don't know if he's in shape. I guess he is. I don't know if it makes a difference. But if they could get him without giving up a draft pick, I'm guessing they wouldn't be offering more than a 4th or a 5th, especially if they're considering Gardner Minshew, who's probably not. I mean, Cardinals might give you a draft pick to take him. I mean, Gardner Minshew, J.J. McCarthy. So if the Niners are waiting for a second-round pick for Mac Jones, I don't think they're going to get it from the Giants. I could be wrong. And again, I mean, just because Brock Purdy's made it through two games unscathed doesn't mean he's going to make it through 17. And the Niners are so bad at drafting, why would you trade Mac Jones for a pick? So you could draft someone who's going to get hurt, even if he's never been hurt before. So I think Mac Jones is worth more than any pick the Niners can get or conceivably get for him. It changes if you can get two first, but you won't, and then you still just draft players who get hurt anyway. So it's cool that the Giants are interested. I just don't think they're going to offer a day-two pick, and that means that Mac Jones is probably going to stay in the Niners. And maybe that sounds like an anticlimax right now, but if Brock Purdy gets hurt, I'm going to be happy that Mac Jones is still on this team.
