Calvin Munson Jersey , Week 172019 NFL DraftTakeaways from Football Outsiders’ 2019 QBASE projectionsNew,59commentsSurprising results for a few of this year’s quarterbacksEDTShareTweetShareShareTakeaways from Football Outsiders’ 2019 QBASE projectionsBrian Spurlock-USA TODAY SportsThe New York Giants are in the market for a quarterback of the future. There are a lot of views and opinions on this year’s class and one more just came out with the release of Football Outsiders’ QBASE projection system. QBASE takes things like experience, efficiency, and scouting to project each quarterback’s Defense-adjusted Yards Above Replacement (DYAR, FO’s counting stat for quarterbacks) over the third to fifth seasons of the quarterback’s career.Here are some takeaways from this year’s projections. The full article can be found here, please go read it.Kyler Murray is the top QB, but not by muchMurray comes out with the best QBASE rating, but Dwayne Haskins is close behind. Both get dinged because of a lack of starting experience
Infant Oshane Ximines Jersey , though Murray has the third best projection of any prospect with one or two years of experience behind only Alex Smith and Cam Newton, two former first overall picks. Haskins is seventh. Football Outsiders does note QBASE only factors in passing value, which leaves out the value Murray is likely to add on the ground — significantly more than Haskins.QBASE isn’t overly optimistic on anyone and mostly below 2018The view that this is an overall weak quarterback class, especially when compared to 2018, plays out here. Kyler Murray’s QBASE projection is the top for this class, but it sits behind Baker Mayfield, Josh Rosen, and Lamar Jackson from last season. Drew Lock and Daniel Jones are ahead of Josh Allen
Oshane Ximines Jersey Draft , but well below Sam Darnold.Drew Lock and Daniel Jones have lower QBASE projections than Kyle Lauletta and Davis WebbYes, you read that correctly. Drew Lock (271) and Daniel Jones (263) have lower QBASE projections than Kyle Lauletta (273) did last season and Davis Webb (286) in 2017. However, Football Outsiders does note projecting FCS-level quarterbacks like Lauletta is even more difficult than projecting FBS quarterbacks, which is hard enough. FO also notes production from a very Air Raid offense skews some of Webb’s numbers.Other fun notes on these quarterbacks:QBASE likes starting experience, but Lock’s first two seasons were so poor by completion percentage (below 55 percent) the system does not count them as starting seasons.QBASE uses Scouts Inc’s grades in an attempt to factor in how the NFL will view these players based on more than just on-field production. Scouts Inc. currently has Jones as the 76th-ranked player and in this draft and in the writeup, FO suggests Jones would be a good value in the third round. He’s currently the most mocked player to the Giants with the 17th overall pick.Will Grier’s projection is surprisingGrier had incredible production at West Virginia and per Sports Info Solutions’s on-target percentage is the most accurate quarterback in this class. That doesn’t matter for his QBASE projection, which came out negative. FO notes two years of starting experience, a weak opposing schedule
Oshane Ximines NFL Jersey , and third-round grade from scouts play into the low projection. However, a projection system that does factor in accuracy — weighted completion percentage by depth of target — from 538’s Josh Hermsmeyer views Grier as the second-best quarterback in this class. The relationship between Landon Collins and the New York Giants is, right now, a complicated one. He is probably their best defensive player, young enough in his fourth season to still be a building block. He is, also, however a free agent at the end of the season and was the subject of trade rumors before the 2018 NFL trade deadline.The Giants are 1-7 this season and 4-20 over the past two seasons. Collins told SNY that the trade rumors were “a big eye-opener” and that “If they’re rebuilding, they can rebuild without me.”If they want to keep Collins and can’t reach a long-term deal
Oshane Ximines NFL Draft , the Giants could use the franchise tag on the 24-year-old two-time Pro Bowler. That’s not a scenario that would make Collins happy.“Honestly I don’t want it,” he said. “I know what type of player I am. I’m going to bring forth hard-work, talent, play-making abilities to the game each and every week. Why would I want to play under a one-year deal? If something happens I’m not guaranteed. And even though I’m guaranteed that for a year, I’m still not guaranteed. ...“It is what it is,” Collins said. “If they franchise tag me I have to go from there. I can’t go nowhere. There’s not much I can do.”Around the Inter-GoogleGiants midseason report: Assessing the first half for all 53 players, Pat Shurmur and Dave Gettleman – The AthleticA snapshot view of the entire Giants roster, with a look back at the first eight games and a look ahead at what to expect in the second half of the season.Kyle Shanahan: ‘I don’t think it was too tough a decision’ to start Nick Mullens in Week 10 vs. Giants - Niners NationThe 49ers are taking this week-to-week
