Trevin Wade

I don't know if anyone else is impressed with Wade, but I'm quickly becoming a fan.

 

I have been worried sick over our lack of depth at CB and don't trust that DRC or the Prince can stay healthy for a full season. I've thought all along that our biggest vulnerability for this season is the problem of one of our starting CB's goes down...which is a big possibility considering the positions injury history and the Giants' injury history on top of that.

 

And then we let a bunch of our backups go. Thurmond went to the Eagles and Bowman is now a Dolphin. We let Demps go last season who could fill in at CB and he's now with the Texans. We didn't let Bennett Jackson go, but he was in the process of being converted to a safety and now he's out with a knee injury that could end his season.

 

My first instinct is to say, "we're fucked". Our defensive backfield is a friggin mess!

 

But we picked up Trevin Wade off of the Lion's practice squad last January and he's been kind of an unknown commodity. However, he had a stellar game in the first pre-season game and picked up where he left off in the second pre-season game. He's fast and seems to understand the position well. And he's hungry and aggressive. Of course, he's not going to beat out Prince or DRC, but he sure looks like the best backup CB the Giants have had in awhile. He's a pleasant surprise and I hope he takes a big step forward in his NFL career by making Big Blue proud. My fingers are crossed anyway.

 

We still need another quality CB in my mind. The safety position - it's been blown all to hell. Don't know what to say about that. I am crossing my fingers that Collins will be back and will be healthy all season and Taylor and Behre will come around, stay healthy, and surprise.
