VERY likely a smokescreen. But I will say that Judge is taking some heat here in the NY media because he will not talk about Jones and has refused to even mention him by name. Like I said, very likely a smokescreen, but I could see them taking Herbert and trying to flip Daniel Jones. Maybe the Giants take Herbert and trade Jones to the Pats for Joe Thuney. There was some smoke that Belichick really liked Jones last year, and though Joe Judge comes from the Pats, maybe he isn't sold on the guy. Who knows? But with a regime change, I would not completely dismiss it, especially after the Cardinals Rosen-Murray thing. If other teams are doing it, the hive mind will likely follow suit.
