If we want to bring in an FA OT at vet minimum after the draft, I'd be game for that. While Beatty certainly wasn't a liability, his coming off an eye injury and the lack of a body of work...are concerning. Sure, the Giants have more information on it that any of us and I'll root for the team regardless, but my conservatism and desire to have a backup for every backup...makes me a little uneasy at the OT position. Again, I'm not asking them to go out and sign the biggest name and I'm certainly not leading any sort of charge, but I'd be lying if I said that I wouldn't feel reassured if they did pick up an additional guy at a low risk contract, especially now that they didn't draft an OT in the earlier rounds.

Where are Cincinatti and Tennessee picking in the 3rd round?

Sweet...this has got to be some of the best news of the offseason...and yeah, I would hope that it's not to set up a Kiwi trade....that'd make it some of the worst news of the offseason.

No doubt that Fleener is drawing interest in Indy...but they have so many holes that it'd be tough to pin them to a TE, even if said TE does have a connection to their franchise QB.

He, or Glenn, would've been good selections for them. The Steelers need to get younger on defense too.

Getting high enough in the 2nd to get Randle, Hill or Fleener at this point seems unlikely....unless there's truth to the Osi/McCoy/pick trade

Still like Egnew (TE) later on. Still like CB here in the mid rounds, be it anyone from Donnie Fletcher up to Josh Robinson. My only requirements are a sub-4.5 40 time, at least 190, and 6'0 tall. Still looking of an OT and WR too. So, in the 2nd, if Glenn, Martin, Adams, or Massie are there at 63...that'd be my pick. In the 3rd, Brandon Hardin (FS) is interesting, Greg Childs (WR), In the 4th, I'm intrigued now a bit by this Greenwood (CB) kid. Good size and speed, but played at a D3 school. Might go with him at the compensatory 4th. With the other 4th, I'm liking the size/speed of Jaye Howard (DT) Anyway you slice it, there's still a lot of talent to be had in this draft.

I don't want Steven Jackson, nor Colt McCoy.

Heard Shefter on Mike/Mike this morning mention the Giants as a possibility for McCoy. He stated that he was only speculating and had absolutely nothing to document it. I'm guessing this is what ignited Twitter. I would be royally pissed off if we traded ANYTHING for McCoy. He's not the worst QB, but he'd clearly be a backup and we have one of those in David Carr.

Yeah, you can this year, but I can't say for sure about next year into the year after. I think it may have had to do with the lockout last offseason or something to that effect. There was news about it when the salary cap limitations were placed on the Cowboys and Redskins...saying basically that due to the carry-over, they had two years to cover the limitations placed upon them.

With having Baas, Snee, Petrus, Boothe, Diehl...I think the interior OLine is good enough that Konz wasn't going to be the guy. I thought for sure it'd be Jonathon Martin or Cordy Glenn, especially once Doug Martin went the pick before.

The morning after, I'm still on the fence with the pick. He's got great abilty, but comes with significant reservations (fumbles, pass protection). If he can improve those two things and still run the way he has, than I'll be happy with the pick. But right now, I'm at a B or B-

Oh, there's no doubt that that should be the rotation...Ware should without a doubt be the odd man out. Not sure what you mean by Bradshaw not being in shape to play right now.

I will appreciate the receptions out of the backfield...that much I am looking forward to. But I will approach this one cautiously because unless the fumbling and blocking are improved, he won't get the chance to catch out of the backfield.

My opinion, for a first rounder, you should be good enough at your position to defeat that argument completely. For a 2nd rounder or later, I'd buy into that.

Just read that Wilson sucks ass at blocking...awesome. Blocking and ball carrying both need improvement....can't say I'm overly stoked about this pick. I might've gone more towards the OLine with Glenn, Martin, and Adams all on the board

If we spent our 1st on nothing more than a kick returner....or even primarily on a kick returner...I'll be pissed. He needs to run the fucking ball and not fumble it. That's his job and has been, ever since he put the RB next to his name. I didn't see David Wilson KR/PR anywhere.

There's going to be a run on OT tomorrow...Adams, Martin, Glenn all still on the board

Seems like he'll be a hell of a player. I wonder if Martin was available if Wilson still would've been the pick? All I saw said the two were very closely ranked.

LOL...glad I wasn't the only one thinking it

Cordy Glenn, Jonathon Martin, Fleener, Doug Martin, David Wilson, Stephen Hill, Andre Branch....I'm game for any of them

Reese will have to pay the rookies regardless of what happens to Osi. And I really don't think Osi's staying or going will ultimately be a salary cap issue. If the Giants wanted to pay him, I think they'd clear the space to do so. It's a disagreement of worth issue. I really think, that if the Giants get one of the best pass rushers in the draft (as they have them ranked), that Osi could be traded overnight/tomorrow if they found someone willing to give up a 3rd this year or a 2nd next. Two 4ths would work as well for me. Giants would be protecting themselves AND getting a better return on a player that they're going to lose eventually anyhow.

Yes, for THIS year, the Giants have all the leverage. I really don't believe anyone's debating that. The discussion revolves around what you do with him as a player. There's really not that many options. 1. Let him play out this year, do not give him an extension, he walks out in FA next offseason and you pick up a compensatory pick in 2014. 2. Trade him for a 3rd this year or 2nd next year, unload his salary, carrying it over to next year so that we can pay Nicks and/or Cruz. For the Giants organization, in option one, you get Osi's services for 1 more year and you get a compensatory pick down the road. In option 2, you get draft pick(s) this and/or next year AND you get some salary cap space. I'm voting for #2 at this point. The 2014 compensatory pick isn't worth much today and I think that his production can be absorbed. The benefits to option 2 really just seem to outweigh those of #1.

If Tannehill drops to us at 32, I think it's all but a certainty that our pick goes up on the auction block. I think he makes too much sense for Miami, which is precisely why I think Miami may go a different direction. But falling from 8 to 32 is quite a long way and again, with the Patriots having 27 and 31, they'll have two chances to do the same trade down that we would entertain.

Falcons did make out on the deal, but these are the moves that keep the Eagles under the cap...
