First things first: When I say I love Jameis Winston’s signing with the New York Giants, I am saying that I love it in its current context. It’s almost like saying I love Arby’s when I’m on the verge of starvation (and am in possession of enough Pepto Bismol to handle the fallout).
It’s very clearly YOLO time in East Rutherford, after the Giants were edged out of the Matthew Stafford sweepstakes, seem to be a distant runner-up for Aaron Rodgers and are staring down the near certainty that Cam Ward will be drafted No. 1 by the Tennessee Titans. Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll are in a perilous enough position that there needed to be a press conference justifying the two remaining in their current jobs. The confidence in the team’s ability to make a prescient roster decision, after the (still justified, in my opinion) separation from Saquon Barkley, are at near all-time lows.
