  1. Fwiw I can barely watch games anymore cause of my work schedule. Most of the time I'm on WFAN or the Giants App. I'm not really remembering where the PSLs came from. Did Mara start this or did it come from the Jets brass?
  2. Hopefully his aggression in camp carries over. Hearing he was close to getting us fined for too much contact.
  3. Isn't there like an 800 year waiting list for season tickets anyway?
  4. I have 1 issue with this and 1 issue alone... I keep hearing about this bone on bone condition he has and that scares me. Other than that I love the pick.
  5. Honestly... what else do you or any of us think he and Mac are gonna say after taking him? Anything other than what they gave would've been like taking a shot at the kid. He did basically the same thing when we took Apple last year even though the world knew we wanted Conklin and Floyd. Gimme a few on the Reese quote. I heard it 2nd hand from Dave Rothenberg and Anita Marks after the draft on the radio.
  6. For the love of God... What's so difficult about making a fucking phone call? If the price is too high then fuck it. Stay put and take Engram. Reese himself said Engram was the 2nd TE on their board so that point is moot. Ellison potentially going down was mentioned solely to cross those coming up with the bs line of "We signed Ellison to be our blocking TE." Call me old school but TEs need to be able to do both. No one said 50/50 in Mac's offense. What I want is our offense not having to be in the 11 personnel on 95% of the snaps. I want to make sure we can blow a DL off the ball when needed and I don't see him at 230lbs being able to do that to an NFL DE when he's put in that situation to help our piss poor run blocking OL. And seeing as how this keeps being lost on everyone I talk to I'll state it again... I hope to God he proves me wrong for the next 15 years. I hope he's OROY. And when Marshall retires I hope he can transition into his role seemlessly and help the next QB become greater than Eli.
  7. Again... I see the upside to giving Eli another weapon. Especially one as versatile as Engram is. I just have a major issue with drafting another tweener or one dimensional player when a more complete player at that same position is within reach and we made no effort to try and get him. That being said... I hope Engram goes out and wins OROY after putting up a 1000 yard 10 TD season and helping us with Super Bowl number 5. He's in Blue now... why would I wish failure on him?
  8. That has way more to do with Chicago's gm allowing himself to haggled than just that being the going "price" for the trade. Plus we're talking a top 3 pick vs 23->18. Again... what's the problem with inquiring?
  9. The kid is in Blue now, so I hope he proves me wrong for the next 15 years, but I see a wasted pick right now and a very missed opportunity. And I'm just bringing up Howard because that's the "position" we drafted.
  10. 23 to 18 should not have broken the bank, but we'll never know because Reese didn't even try... and he admitted to that.
  11. Aside from the Travis Beckum comparison I made my biggest issue is OJ Howard fell all the way to 19 and Reese already came out and said they made no attempt to trade up and grab him. Howard is the prototypical old-style 2-way TE and he went literally 4 picks ahead of us with NO ATTEMPT OR EFFORT AT ALL from our gm to go and get him. I don't understand this at all. The second he fell to 15 I would've been on the phone.
  12. I hope I'm wrong, but I see another Travis Beckum.
  13. Furious. Literally just picked a big WR.
  14. Lol I know where you stand. Tbh I don't have a preference in this draft which is making it so intriguing to me. I just don't want Cook to wind up in the NFC East and not be wearing a Giants Uniform.
  15. Dammit Jim... I need you on the Dalvin Cook Bandwagon!!! Lol.
  16. Can't name one person I have my mind set on. Howard, Cook, Njoku, and McCaffrey are all players that spark my interest.
  17. Should've been 8-0. That 1 loss was the game Vereen had the injured triceps.
  18. That's pretty much how it is. When I did that Reese write-up prior to last offseason I went through each individual player and found when they were last on an NFL roster and that was where I made the cutoff. So if a guy last played in 2013 but hadn't retired yet I had "Out of NFL Since 2013".
  19. The biggest issue is Beckham and Collins will be free agents at the same time. The one positive (strictly from a financial standpoint) is that iirc Eli will be off the books at that point.
  20. Yep... NFL Mobile update and it's on NFL Network's bottom line. Same story tho. 4 year deal but no numbers. EDIT: 4 years $68M with $54M guaranteed from what I've heard.
  21. If we're keeping him (which judging by Chandler Jones' contract seems unlikely) we need to get it done soon so we can spread his cap hit out and actually make something out of the rest of free agency. If not... cut that tag off and get Hankins back in here.
