Lubeck Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 7. New York Giants (11-6). Underrated Giant of the Year: Rookie GM Jerry Reese. He drafted eight players in his first rookie class last April, and all eight played in the 24-14 win over the Bucs. Who goes eight-for-eight in a draft? Check out the contributions of his rookie draft class on Sunday. First-round pick Aaron Ross started at left corner, had four tackles and was part of an excellent effort by a beleaguered secondary. Second-round pick Steve Smith, the slot receiver, had three catches for 29 yards. Long-snappers Jay Alford and Zak DeOssie (third and fourth rounds) played, with DeOssie contributing two special-teams tackles. Fifth-round pick Kevin Boss, the starting tight end. Sixth-round pick Adam Koets, a tackle, played in reserve. The two seventh-round picks, running back Ahmad Bradshaw and safety Michael Johnson, both made an impact -- Bradshaw with a game-high 66 rushing yards and Johnson with a tackle and a dropped interception. Wow, didn't realize Reese had done such a magnificent job. 9 for 8? Even considering Koets didn't really play thats 7-8 draft picks who were on the field at one point making a contribution.

I dont remember how we got him, but he did look good when he filled in for Strahan, although it was not very long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nesta Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 he has done an excellent job. Also consider the fat that was cut like Pettigout, who got hurt yet again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
