Lughead Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 New York Giants opt to sign LB Miles over Harris; place Goff on IR by Mike Garafolo/The Star-Ledger Wednesday December 17, 2008, 4:00 PM I mentioned earlier I had heard the Giants were going to sign LB Nate Harris but didn't get that confirmed. That was the tentative plan. According to a source, the Giants told all the players that worked out they were going to sign Harris. But the team then reconsidered and went with another LB who worked out today: Edmund Miles. To make room for Miles on the roster, the Giants placed LB Jonathan Goff (hamstring) on injured reserve. Goff, the team's fifth-round pick in April, was limited to five games this season because of a back injury suffered in the preseason, a concussion against the Eagles last month and his latest ailment - a hamstring injury. The 6-foot, 242-pound Miles signed with the Dolphins last year as an undrafted free agent out of Iowa. He played in all 16 games and led the team with 16 special-teams tackles. He was waived in late August. The Giants will need Miles to play specials immediately because Goff is done for the year and LB Gerris Wilkinson is likely out a few weeks with a knee sprain.

mastershake Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Fuckin Wilkinson, I had high hopes for him. Yup.... at this point I hope we can resign Blackburn for cheap, and then go out and draft another LB on the first day. Is Clark signed for another year?

Is Clark signed for another year? Pretty sure Clark was a 1 year deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMFP Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 I'm telling you, we've got a 1st rounder and 2 2nd rounders next year....if we don't snag a stud LB in the draft next year, I'll fucking flip out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a given, Joe. I highly doubt the Giants will go DE again.. though that would be fucking hillarious. We have enough pix to land a LB, WR, and a DE the first day of the draft.... I'm not going to speculate on who because I know next to nothing about college players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
