Ross Jackson explores a Carr trade to Giants [ESPN NFL Nation Giants reporter Jordan Raanan says Derek Carr could be a trade option for Giants] (1 Viewer)

The key is “if he waives his no trade clause.”

What makes you think he will?

I already addressed that.

If he waives his no trade clause, he gets to get keep his current contract which pays him 30 million in base salary in 2025.

If he gets cut and signs one year deal elsewhere, he’ll probably get paid something similar to what Sam Darnold got last year (10 million) with the Vikings.

The amount of Carr hate on here. Maybe we would have won more games this year if we signed a big player last off-season instead of Chase Young, Cedric Wilson, and some other randoms. This isn't Brees' Saints anymore. This division can be won with game breakers. Unless those two QBs become Cam 2.0.

Makes sense, if you recall his behavior after the game. Wouldn’t be surprised if this was the catalyst in itself that got the process started that week for Allen to be fired.

When you have a stalwart, fun-loving player like that behaving the way Jordan did then demanding a trade, that’s going to raise some eyebrows.

In the article, Jordan says he didn't go the route of asking for a trade. He thought about it, but he and his agent decided it wasn't the best way to go.

Stop wit the #3 pic , yall got dreams be happy with a 4th or 5 th round and get rid cf his contract

I think the Saints have some leverage regarding a possible trade. If Carr agrees to waive his no trade clause, he gets to keep his full salary.

If the Saints cut him, he’ll be playing on a one year prove it deal like Russell Wilson.

If he’s released, him and his agent can market his services and show teams what he “put on tape”

Yep, the saints have some leverage. They can ask him to waive it. If he says no, then the saints could reply, well, you can ride the bench the next season, go with a QB the mike Mcarthy wants wether on the roster already, low cost vet, or trade for a2nd year rookie riding the pine. But he can hold the clip board and waste a year of his career.

 

[Witness]

If someone’s interested, you gotta get rid of him and start over at the position.

All 12 years of Carr's career his apologists have been saying that. If we continue to kick the can down the road with Carr then it will always be "next year we are going to be the 9-7 giants from 13 years ago.

Carr is the goat that wasn't according to his lovers because everyone around him is terrible besides him.

I don’t want to kicks the can down the road with Carr but his contract ties us to him for this next year. I wouldn’t restructure him and cut loose after next season.

From memory, wasn’t it the NY Jets that were competing with us to have Derek Carr sign with them? I wonder if that is more of a viable option than the Giants? Devante Adams went their from LV and finished off his season with them and I believe has the option to continue next season there too.

It wouldn’t stop them drafting their future QB if they wanted to as he would still be a bridge QB (similar to what the Vikings and Falcons did)

Just a thought.

I think Glenn said they will move forward with Rodgers at QB, that rules out a trade to the Jets.

The Jets didn't want him...they were using him as leverage to get Rodgers to stop lollygagging about his plans. There was zero genuine interest from them

Yall some wild arse fanatics!
So who is the QB if we trade Carr right now??
And why did he look like a good QB when the team was intact if he is barely mid?? His efficiency numbers were respectable. None of the available QBs on the market are better than Carr.

I don’t think Carr is terrible at all, and he’s definitely better than the other two on the roster. Having said that, this next season will be a tank no matter which mediocre to bad to very bad QB we’re starting lol.
I don’t think it makes sense to move him from a financial standpoint tho, just let him drive the tank this next season.

This team (unless the draft is a home run) is devoid of talent all over the field.

 

[Wisco Steve]

TEN might come calling for Carr IF they pass on QB at #1 and go Abdul Carter?
Their coach, Brian Callahan, has a history with Carr.
Probably a bit of a long-shot circumstance, but you never know?

 

[EvilMike]

Who would play QB? Our 5th round pick, the 3rd (?) pick, or the 6th round pick will probably use to get a QB?
