A classic futures camp-body signing with minimal immediate roster impact. Five headlines covered it, mostly framing it as an inspiring human-interest story rather than a football move. Kubas is an undrafted small-school lineman with no proven NFL experience — a long shot. Fans largely shrugged, noting the Giants desperately need proven offensive line help, not developmental projects. Kubas faces steep odds to crack the 53-man roster, likely competing for a practice squad spot at best.

This signing grades out as a significant overpay for the New York Giants — the team is paying more than the on-field production currently warrants. Jake's on-field performance ranks in the bottom quartile among NFL Gs, grading him as an unproven at the position. His $1.0M average annual value ranks as bargain money for the G market. The concern here is the gap between production and cost — unproven output at bargain money means the team is paying a premium above the player's on-field value. Jake is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract.
