Daniel Jones signs 4-year, $160M deal, Giants tag Saquon Barkley | NFL | FIRST THINGS FIRST

First Things First

I just love that Nick Wright was getting visibly angry and apologetic to Giants fans, then finished with “and I don’t even care about the Giants” 😂😂😂

[malikanthony]

If Daniel Jones is a $40M a year QB, Herbert, Burrow, Jackson, and Hurts are getting $50M a year easy.

[lucasmelee]

Daniel Jones is the luckiest man in football, godspeed

[shyheimmitchell]

Wildes is literally trolling don’t take what he says seriously 💀

[williamlovas]

Love wildes coming out with the unique takes, and not falling in the consensus

[keranseunarine]

40m for daniel jones. Mahomes is literally worth about 250m a year then 😂😂😂

[TheWackyWiggles]

I appreciate that Nick apologizes when he yells.

[TC-gxqn]

My first thought when I saw the headline was Nick is going to freak. 😆

[PaperCutRhymesPhD]

I'm a huge lifelong Gmen fan. This deal makes me VERRRY nervous, but we got a young, improving core...along with a locked down QB and a top coach. In Daboll I trust.

[cameronparkes]

Wildes loves to rile up Nick. You can see him smile when he does so

[caper]

“He’s not a good QB!! I never said he’s a bum” 😂 😂

[polumathes]

This should’ve been reversed; pay Saquon, tag Daniel.

[eincan]

The problem with franchising DJ is that it would have counted $32 million against the cap and they would have had no money for anything else and could not tag Saqoun. The contract is set up so he only counts $19 million against the cap this year and now they have some cap room.

New Orleans is feeling pretty good about themselves right now.

[northside]

Insane front office work by the Giants. Hope it works out

[lajuanjohnsonbtc]

Derrick Carr is shaking his head & asking who is his agent?

[dbara]

Wildes is just glad the Giants won’t be a problem for a while

[jakkeday]

He threw 15 TD's but ran for another 7!

The fact he threw for 24TD's in his 1st year lets us know that with better weapons (and O-Line) he produces more.

[jimeddinger]

I hope Danny Dimes is watching this and taking note of all the doubters. I imagine Dabol had more to do with this decision than we know.

[joshuap]

It’s all about timing and team… now the giants are stuck with a qb that can’t win a bowl and a coach that’ll win too many games to draft a top prospect
