How does the Giants’ trade for J.J. McCarthy affect fantasy football?
Welcome to the Fantasy Footballers Podcast with your hosts, Andy Holloway, Jason Moore, and Mike Wright.
É o começo.
Monday, September twenty eighth, the Fantasy Footballers Podcast. Mike Wright, Jason Moore, Andy Holloway. I hate injuries. There are so many injuries. There are many. And uh I even hate 'em I hate 'em extra. I extra hate them when they happen at the top of a game and not the bottom. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like
if you're going to get injured, at least respectfully even if it happens early, score a touchdown first. Score a touchdown, then pull your hammy. You know, that's just the respectful way to do it.
A Chan,
beginning of the
game. Terrence Ferguson, beginning
of the
game.
Dude. He was going to be so good. Right after I tweeted. Oh, you you and me both literally have him everywhere except our dynasty leagues. But
Jason, why didn't you
why didn't you recommend Tyler Higby? Oh We have news happening. Breaking news. The Giants are trading for a quarterback. Okay.
Well, this is
is this a big boy quarterback? From Minnesota. JJ McCarthy. JJ McCarthy. Did you see
it just
paid Jameis? Well, yeah, but then they watched him. Um
Fair.
So did you see this thing yesterday? Uh Joe Sh uh is it Sean. Yes, yes,
yes. Schmo.
We call him their GM. So did you see this thing where he tweeted Did you see this, Mike? He tweeted what looked to be a private list. Joe Schoen.
I don't know how to say his name. I feel like that's something. Joe Schmoe for sure.
Um so he tweeted a private list.
I assumed it was fake. When I saw that post, I wasn't his quarterbacks that they were.
Then it was a bunch of other names. Richardson, Flacco, Rush, Scataboo. Why is
Scataboo? I know that was the I know that was the
that was why I thought it was fake. And then Drew Brees said no. Russell Wilson, last resort.
You sure this isn't fake? I think that was fake. Regardless.
But but the guy that they said need on the fake list is the guy they traded for.
Twenty twenty seven, fifth rounder is all it took. Yeah. It's just Yeah. That is Wow. It's bad news for Dart. That that's where my brain immediately goes. Why is it bad news for Dart? Well you just traded for It's a question. It's not a question. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No. Dart is bad. I'm saying how like how bad is his knee? Well, he he's out for the year, Mike. Yes. No, I know that. They want a
chance to win this year. They they're two and one, right? It's surprising. So they they this just makes sense. Winston's not the solution. But to go to a
developmental quarterback with your like if you're saying we're trying to win right now, we're gonna go get a guy who got We're gonna go get a guy who got
nothing. They traded a fifth round pick for a chance to win this year. This is just this is like, hey, we we want some upside. We don't want to go out there and get like a garbage backup, nothing burger quarterback to come in and be the same as Winston. We want some chance at going to the playoffs. I'm surprised why on that on that list cardball. I mean, it this is a guy that played with his brother. So th this is a bit of a This one makes perfect sense to me.
Yeah, I i it does. I I don't think it's a dumb thing to do. It is surprising because the fact that you have a young future you know, you just drafted him. He is the future of the franchise in Jackson Dart. Trading for a young prospect who was also supposed to be the future of a franchise, uh a recent, you know, first round draft pick is just surprising. I think it's smart. I think it's smart to go get Get someone that gives you a chance and it will probably fail. We've seen McCarthy fail enough to know like eh, it's probably not gonna be good enough. Jameis has looked terrible. He'll be better than Jameis.
And he'll
execute a
little bit.
I think I would have rather gone and got Anthony Richardson and just tried to like create a running game.
Yeah, not me. No, I this is the best tr player you could have acquired in terms of this is a third stringer now on Minnesota.
Yes.
You know what I mean? Like this was not this is a guy that's left for dead, which made him available.
