I feel that. I dont think they are gonna resign Eli though. Not unless he has some amazing run and falls just short of super bowl glory. I cant see Eli signing a cap friendly deal either.

I was in agreement with most on the subject, till I saw that interview. Smh it was a train wreck. He might not have wanted to be a leader, but I think its just natural that many of the other players looked up to him. Ive seen him many times trying to rally the troops on the sideline.

Its a no brainer to me. The Giants gave him all a team could give a single player. And the POS couldnt even say he wanted to be here when asked directly? He should have been talking about naming his first son after DG. What do think that does for a locker room? Knowing your number one guy, the leader of your team, doesnt even want to be there? F that guy. Have fun in Cleveland, said no one. Ever.

Especially if these new defensive players live up to their potential. Like you said, in a year or two this ship may really be turned around.

I dont know much about this guy, but he has to be an improvement over Wheeler. Good to see the Vikings were trying to keep him, instead of just letting him walk. I cant wait to see what Barkley can do with a line that can actually block. I could see him breaking some single season records.

I hope I am too. From what I can tell, without him ever taken a snap in the NFL so far, looks to me like we might have a mobile Eli. The way I figure, the kid is ours now, so might as well give him full support and hope for the best.

Maybe they should let the kid take a snap or two before they start firing people.

Thats what I thought last year, but it still didnt matter. This game is won in the trentches. Its just how it is. This year should be better, and if Getty picks the right linemen for both sides with all those mills next year, our new QB should be in a great situation to succeed.

Yeah that sounds about right. I would have supported dropping Eli and his insane contract three years ago no problem.

Not last year

Yeah cause we all know how great this team has been since Odell got here. Has been a major difference maker with the one humiliating wild card round where he completely blew it. The one year he actually made it through a season. I know I'm gonna miss things like the mock dog pissing in the end zone. The guy is a complete head case. How much cap space did this guy take up?

F Odell. Even in this interview he said he told Baker Mayfield he wished he was his QB before this trade ever took place. The guy has no sense of loyalty. He couldnt even commit to saying he wanted to be in NY just after they made him the highest paid WR in league history. And this is coming from a guy who cant get through a season without getting hurt. And why? Cause other players in the league hate him so much that they basically try to kill him every time he gets tackled. Im glad he is gone. Heck last year Eli played better without him on the field. With all the new additions to the defense, and the improvements on the O-line,I for one am excited about this season. Eli seems to have a fire lit under his ass to finish strong in his last season. I see no reason, with the easier schedule, to not believe they have a good chance to make the playoffs. Gettleman did the right thing.

I felt the same as many here at first, but Im pumped to see what this kid can do.

Thanks Nas, I needed some race baiting BS to swallow. Its been a while.

I think the Giants have a decent chance of having a better record then Philly. No more Foles to bail you out.

Personally I hope they can stack the defensive line in this draft. That will make up for a lot of the overall defenses weaknesses. Id take the best DE with the first pick. Best Olinemen with 17, then if there is another good DE with the second round pick. Hopefully there will be a great right tackle at pick 17. Though I guess this strategy still leaves us hanging at QB. So I dont know.

Moving up two to three spots Id imagine would cost more then a second round pick. I agree with Sep. it would be awesome to get a ligit pass rusher of Allens caliber, but they need all the draft picks they can get. Especially high in the second round.

Well no, I guess not. That was really more of a fluke then anything. Point taken.

Thats the spirit.

When did so many people become Odell fans over being Giant fans? And why? Its not like we havent sucked for 90% of his stay in NY. I mean does anyone really think giving a wr a 95 million dollar contract was gonna equal putting together a great team? There is a reason we have been in cap hell for so long, and that contract made it way worse.

We didnt have a bunch of superstars in 2011. Heck had statistically one of the worse defenses in the league. The guy who basically won the game for us was a mid talent wr who had one spectacular play.

2011 was comparable.

Exactly, and between Landry and Chubbs there is only so many balls to go around. Is he gonna start throwing a fit when he isnt reaching 1200 yards and 10 TDs his first season with them? I dont know, for me, soon as I saw that he was hesitant to even say he wanted to be in NY, after the risk this team made for him giving that contract, well, f that guy. Good riddance.
