BlueInCanada Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Cleveland gets; OBJ Giants get; S Jabrill Peppers, NT Dexter Lawrence and OLB Oshane Ximines. So OBJ was traded to fill up on defensive starters and to free up 85+ million in cap room next year. Let's see how this plays out the next few years.

Treehugger Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Certainly seems like they're building a team based on defense and time of possession. Hope they don't wear Barkley out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Shurmur is basically building that dominating Vikings team we seen a few years ago. A defence that can shut down teams and an offence that relies on the run game to set up the screens and controlled passing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that from all the salary dumps and Eli coming off the books? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueInCanada Posted April 28, 2019 Author Share Posted April 28, 2019 85 mil? Is that from all the salary dumps and Eli coming off the books? Is that it? He says lol It was 100+ million but Tate/Shepard ate some of the cap, when a team goes into FA with 40+ million they are considered in really good shape, Giants are going in with double that, but fans want more lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sephiroth Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Getty is more concerned (or at least as concerned) with keeping headcases out of the locker room as he is with adding talent to the team. We'll see if it works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see if it works out. As much as I love OBJ and wanted him to retire in blue, he did just skip voluntary work outs, and supposedly his agent is threatening him holding out mandatory OTAs until he gets a NEW extension like Brown did with the Raiders. SOOOOOOOO maybe the Giants are going to dodge a bullet here. Let's see how it plays out, Cotton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueInCanada Posted April 29, 2019 Author Share Posted April 29, 2019 Not to mention his absolutely epic twitter meltdown on Friday night. Fucking dude sounds like he went off the deep end after the Giants traded him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
