awful is an understatement.

Couldn't handle Daboll's rageaholic tirades as a Bill.  Daboll needs emotionally grounded stock to work with.

At least he has a shoulder to cry on while sitting at home:

Channeling 👇 I see.

No wonder he got the 'heave ho'!

Sounds like they watched his film

we should def bring him back.  A TC arm with familiarity in the system.  

 

Also, yes, he was dreadful with the Giants.  But he got few 1st team snaps and was thrown into the dumpster fire that was the Giants offense last year.  So, a good TC/PS addition for sure.  I still want a vet backup, perhaps Mayfield (we can become reclamation land!) 

Dude couldn’t complete a ten yard pass. He’s awful

did he have the time to complete anything over 10 yards? (I did not see the Giants games) I mean, he must have completed something longer in college?!  I'd rather take him here cheaply than draft a camp arm.  Save that late pick for a punter, or to trade up.  ?

Ummmm unfortunately I watched some of those games from last year and at no point did Jake Fromm resemble a competent NFL backup QB

 

Hard pass

 

Agree....time to move on and develop another PS/qb3.  We'll find a decent backup from all these FA period cuts.

I watched him in both games, the 1st one a little & the 2nd the whole game since it didn't conflict with the Bills game.  The 1st one was so bad that the next week when Glennon was horrible they never put Fromm in.  The 2nd game he started because Glennon was injured & couldn't play.  He was so bad that at one point the Giants ran the ball on 2nd & 3rd down deep in their own territory deciding to play for the punt rather than let him even try to get a 1st down by throwing the ball.  

Fromm is not a NFL QB & has no business ever playing another down.  There is zero reason to bring him back.  I'd rather bring back Matt Barkley than Fromm.

Yeah, he was awful 

[The Jokeman]

I'd add him only because he knows the system but also add a more proven veteran and draft a kid to compete with Fromm for the 3rd/PS QB.

Old School, nice!

There was some who thought he was a better fit for the offense than Allen was. 

[947]

I saw Fromm playing for the Giants while game-surfing & decided to watch & see how he looked. He was as bad as any QB I've ever watched. He had no poise, happy feet, throwing off his back foot, missing horribly. I'll be shocked if he ends up on any team, that tape will make GMs run away.

Insert Kevin Bass jokes here 😃

[ProcessAccepted]

Bringing back Fromm would be a waste. The guy has a weak arm and little athletic ability. Was surprised when we drafted him. There's better marginal QB talent out there.

Remember when some people on here and a few in the media mentioned something about Fromm supplanting Allen when he was drafted? 

Yep.  I remember one quote was something like, “unlike Allen, Fromm is a big boy from a big boy program”.   Stroll through the archives can be very revealing.

He did not look good.   In fact, he so much did not look good that the Giants are signing someone else and dropping Webb to #3.

I remember that.  There were even some national pundits with the "take" that we'd drafted a potential replacement for Allen if he didn't work out.
