So, we only have 2 QBs currently on the roster. We're at 53 til we cut one of the PKs. Simms was cut by Tampa..... do we sign him? As Hats pointed out earlier, we already have a "Simms" jersey! And, while #11 was retired, we can "unretire" it & make it "Simms Jr." (lol - good call Hats) Do we pick him up & make him our #2/3 QB? The Giants like "bloodlines," as was established in the trade for Eli.... Thoughts....... |

It would be stupid NOT to consider such a signing. Unless we make decisions that have nothing to do with talent. Then...sure, I'm with Blueheart. |

I'm sure we'll tag somebody on the PS should the unthinkable happen...

There are several ways to look at this....... --Does Simms want to come here to hold the clipboard? --Do the Giants want to waste the $$$ on the #3 guy that a guy like Simms is going to be looking for? --Until the Tynes situation is cleared up I can't see the team wasting a roster spot on a #3 QB. We're going to carry 2 PK's on the roster until Tynes can come back or be put on IR thus opening a roster spot one way or another. --Is a #3 QB really necessary? --If so, look for JLoad II..........he'll come cheap and already knows the system. |

Right Geno, that's why I said "consider". Of course the financial aspect of the contract has to make sense for us. Whether he wants to come here or not is inconsequential to me 'as a GM'. You still have to do your job, if he says no, he says no. I would say "yes" a 3rd QB is necessary. That's why 99% of teams have one, and have had one ever since I can remember. In our current situation however, you're right...we're probably going to have to do without one, until we cut Tynes (just to go against Cyber's thought process lol). I guess I could see us signing Lorenzen, maybe to the practice squad, but as I've felt from day one...the guy is not a professional quarterback. May as well just have kept Woodson imo. They would both equally get abused in a real game. |

If Simms signs a contract as a third stringer then fine but I can't see this happening. |

Gene to answer you .............. 1) No, Simms is a Cowboy fan ans always has beenbut loves Parcells (hint,hint) 2)No ....see my threads ablot J-Load in the first place. 3)Agreed, IMO.....call Feely! 4) Yeah,I think a #3 is needed...even if on the practice squad 5) JLoad might not be a cheap as you think ,from what I've read he's #2 with the Colts right now. |

I think if the Giants were to sign Simms, he'd end up #2 & Carr would drop to #3. At this point, I have a feeling Simms will go wherever he can get a JOB, be it starter or clip-bord patrol..... |

If anyone cares to know Simms had a tryout with Baltimore today. No word on whether or not a contract was signed. |
