Plus it's a "conditional" pick. You're telling me we couldn't have come up with a "conditional" 2023 4th? He also took a $3.5 million pay cut. I think we could have groomed him into something special with Daboll.

...and in the 2025 draft the NY Giants select: https://www.nfl.com/news/top-qb-recruit-arch-manning-nephew-of-peyton-and-eli-commits-to-texas

My point exactly. Since LT left, every year it's every Giants fan's dream to find the next LT. Now Eli is gone and the same thing is happening.

I think we'll win enough games to knock us out of the top 10, and the playoffs despite Jones. Maybe we pick 12-13. That'll keep us from getting a top tier QB in the draft, but we'll make a splash in free agency on a vet with all the billions in cap space we'll have. Our search for a franchise QB is turning into the same search for LT's replacement.

My point was that he ranked Primetime as his number 1 over LT as his number 3. He's an idiot. And the only one that didn't rank LT as his number 1.

Top 3 defensive players of all time and he picks as his number 1.... https://www.nfl.com/news/top-three-nfl-defensive-players-of-all-time-aaron-donald-lawrence-taylor-among-a#:~:text=like him since.-,Maurice Jones-Drew,-Deion Sanders He stands alone.

Who are we talking about?

I was just shocked there was no noise on here about it. No "the sky is falling" posts. Not a peep.

New York Giants rookie pass rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux got twisted up with an undisclosed injury a couple of weeks ago during organized team activities and has been seen practicing in a non-contact red jersey ever since. Giants head coach Brian Daboll told reporters on Thursday he was hopeful Thibodeaux would be ready for the beginning training camp. "Knock on wood hopefully he'll be good to go," Daboll said, via ESPN's Jordan Raanan. https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-roundup-latest-league-news-from-thursday-june-2#:~:text=New York Giants rookie pass rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux got twisted up with an undisclosed injury a couple of weeks ago during organized team activities

He isn't doing too bad with the Bucs.

Ok, that was funny.

Water? Who needs water with all the free booze at the slot machines?

Then you should move out here. No state taxes, no city taxes, none of that shit from back east. Plus, it's 120 degrees in the summer, you'll never know the difference when you move to Yemen.

I want someone else who will do this:

I hope to God this kid turns out to be the next big personality on this team and give us some fucking Giants pride back.

I have to be honest, and this is easy to say because I'm not a top notch athlete...if I got $11 million to not play, I'd just be done. At his age, I'd take the money, invest most of it so it kept making me money, keep some of it in a bank account to pay bills with, and keep the rest in a suitcase under my bed for partying and general bullshit. I'd buy a house outright and a car, maybe two. I'd get my mom a house with a casita or two for my siblings to live in, and buy her a car to get around in. Fuck risking getting injured chasing a football.

Kansas City just got a bargain.

It's his first draft. He got the ones right he should have and probably 1 or 2 more. I'll be more concerned if he screws up next year's draft when we have all that cap space to work with.

9-8.

Adam Schein NFL.com Contributing Columnist 2) New era for the New York Football Giants The Dave Gettleman era (error) is in the rearview mirror -- and it's quickly disappearing from sight, at least judging by Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll's initial first-round haul. The Giants haven't had a legit dude on defense -- someone the opposition fears -- in years. Enter Kayvon Thibodeaux, who came off the board as the No. 5 overall pick on Thursday. All that talk about his personality being a negative? Hogwash. I interviewed him last week on my SiriusXM Radio show, "Schein on Sports," and came away beyond impressed. That's one intelligent, interesting 21-year-old! Giants fans will love his attitude -- and most especially, his game-day domination. This cat's explosive off the edge. And Big Blue didn't just get a top-tier QB hunter in Round 1, but an elite QB protector, as well. Landing Thibodeaux and hulking OT Evan Neal? It was like a dream. The G-Men haven't won a playoff game since Eli Manning last hoisted the Lombardi Trophy. Over the past five years, they're tied with the Jets for the worst record in the NFL (22-59). With that stuff in mind, it's not hyperbole to say Thursday was the best day for the franchise in the past decade. I am so happy for longtime Giants fans. Welcome to football in 2022. https://www.nfl.com/news/2022-nfl-draft-jets-and-giants-hit-vegas-jackpot-patriots-packers-and-jaguars-ra#:~:text=2) New era for the New York Football Giants

Caught a few innings of Sunday Night Baseball Mets vs. Phillies and I gotta admit, the Mets look good.

Draft class of 2022: Round 1·Pick 5 (5) Kayvon Thibodeaux EDGE Oregon Thibodeaux is a boom-or-bust blue-chip player with impressive physical tools and an unstoppable speed-rush maneuver. The Oregon product displays exceptional balance and body control turning the corner. With outstanding instincts and snap-count anticipation enhancing his speed rush attempts, the electric pass rusher could blossom into a destructive force as a pro. Round 1·Pick 7 (7) Evan Neal OT Alabama CHI>NYG Neal is a super-sized edge blocker with natural skills as a left tackle. The 6-7, 337-pounder is a patient technician with the length to stymie pass rushers off the edge and the power to blow defenders off the ball. The Alabama standout is a powerful run-blocker, but not quite as nasty as some of his counterparts in this class. Round 2·Pick 11 (43) Wan'Dale Robinson WR Kentucky ATL>NYG Neal is a super-sized edge blocker with natural skills as a left tackle. The 6-7, 337-pounder is a patient technician with the length to stymie pass rushers off the edge and the power to blow defenders off the ball. The Alabama standout is a powerful run-blocker, but not quite as nasty as some of his counterparts in this class. Round 3·Pick 17 (81) Cordale Flott CB LSU MIA>NYG As a catch-and-run specialist with outstanding stop-start quickness and burst, Robinson is a natural slot receiver/WR3/returner. Round 4·Pick 7 (112) Daniel Bellinger TE San Diego State CHI>NYG Bellinger has NFL-starter ability, offering reliable ball skills and a proven pedigree in the run game at SDSU. The Giants don't have a tight end on the roster who is expected to run away with the starting job, so consider this a need that has been addressed. Round 4·Pick 9 (114) Dane Belton SAF Iowa ATL>NYG Belton's college production is impressive and he offers the versatility to cover in the slot or in the deep half. While he doesn't have extensive special teams experience, that is likely where he'll need to impress to see the field early on. Round 5·Pick 3 (146) Micah McFadden LB Indiana NYJ>NYG The Giants were one of the worst defenses against the run last year and had a need at linebacker coming into the draft. They waited longer than expected to address that need, but McFadden can come in and instantly help out on obvious run downs as well as on special teams. Round 5·Pick 4 (147) DJ Davidson DT Arizona State The Giants, who had the third-lowest run-stuff rate in 2021, according to Next Gen Stats, address their run defense in consecutive picks. Davidson is disruptive and instinctual against the run, which should win coaches over early in camp. Round 5·Pick 30 (173) Marcus McKethan G North Carolina KC>BAL>NYG Giants scouts sure were fans of North Carolina's rugged offensive line group. They selected a behemoth guard in McKethan who gets to compete with his college teammate and Giants' third-round pick Joshua Ezeudu. Round 6·Pick 3 (182) Darrian Beavers LB Cincinnati The Giants dip into the linebacker well again to address a depth need. Beavers should compete with fellow rookie Micah McFadden for inside reps in Don "Wink" Martindale's 3-4 base. Undrafted rookies: RB Jeremiah Hall, Oklahoma CB Darren Evans, LSU CB Tre Swilling, Georgia Tech Hopefully you are the beginning of greatness, the restoration of Giants Pride, and start Joe Schoen's legacy.
