It was a good move on Barkley's part, however unfair it is. You know who is probably the happiest on the Giants roster? The QB.

I'm guessing its implied that the Giants won't tag Barkley again next offseason?

We'll see. Brisker should take that next step and the game should slow down for him because i thought he actually played too fast last year and missed tackles because of it. E.Jackson has always played his best seasons when he's had a good box safety playing with him with A.Amos and he was good until he got hurt last year with Brisker.

It is plenty important. Defenders find it demoralizong when they defend a play well and a QB escapes for 20 yards. Hence why Fields rep among defenders is higher than fans and the media.
Defenders prefer playing pocket QBs. Easier to gameplan and defend ad you know where they will be. You also can just straight up pass rush them rather than having to play rush contain or devote a spy to them or otherwise move a guy out out of coverage. It also limits how much man or the type of man coverages you can play as can't have coverage defenders eith their backs turned if Fields breaks contain.
So it is very important. The issue is Fields has to be a good enough passing to take advantage of the above.

Just to clarify. You have to add them to the PUP before training camp but once they are off they cant be added again. So Claypool can't be added again.
What Kirwan is referring to is once they are on the PUP for camp they can then be placed on the PUP for the regular season if they never came off the PUP list. That would open up a roster spot and avoid having to cut or put them on injured reserve for the whole year.

Saquon: I won't sign the franchise tag!
Giants: What about now, that I show you literally the same contract?
Saquon: SOLD!

The Barkely deal was more about saving face. Not that different from the Tag but Barkely can say he got more.

Doesn’t sound like much in the world of pro sports, but reality is he bagged a couple extra million which is a lot of money still

With JF......the DC looks at and figures out the offensive scheme overall and attacks it. So it's the OC's job to change up the the scheme and be less predictable.
No problem with what u say about defending pocket Qb's.
The ultimate key is Getsy identifying what the D is doing, making the necessary offensive, passing scheme adjustments and conferring with JF. When all this happens the passing advantage will materialize.

I agree. But what im saying is... there are 6-7 good running QBs in the league and that ability is hard on a defense. And whatever % Fields is better running than those 6-7 doesnt really matter that much overall. But yes.. if you are a good passer who ALSO can run.. that's clearly the ticket. Im not advocating for Troy Aikman or Drew Bledsoe.
