osi724dasack Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 Btw, He's (Ladarius Green) rated a 57 and is rated as 6th round pick. But some team will likely fall in love with him and take him mch earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigblue25 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Now they are saying Greens time has been corrected to 4.8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue25 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Allen wasn't really expected to run faster then he did, he has short area quickness, and plays faster then he times. He did well in the 3 cone drill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue25 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Michael Egnew had a good combine, he might be available in the second or third. He has pushed his stock up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osi724dasack Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 Now they are saying Greens time has been corrected to 4.8. Really Ladarius Greens time was changed to a 4.8? Wow I thought he ran a 4.47. And yea that's what I hear about Allen. But with that 40 and him being slightly slightly undersized hes definately falling. Is it just me or is this TE class pretty weak?

osi724dasack Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 This draft is pretty deep at WR from my early observations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlb37 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 saw an interesting snippet on Joel Dreesen this morning. If the price is right, this guy could represent nice "insurance" at TE. Dreessen (HOU, 6″4, 243) is also a FA. He is an fine TE that would fit as well (reminds me of Boss), some hands and a solid blocker. He took over 800 snaps last season, 2/3rd as a blocker, and still produced “good enough for a NYG TE” numbers : 28 rec for 353y and 6TD. He’s 30 though.

Allstarjim Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Yeah, I speculated earlier about him becoming a Giant... he would be the kind of signing they will make eventually. I could definitely see Dreessen fit right in. Don't think 30 is too old for a TE, either, especially one that will be viewed as a short term solution.

Herc Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 i would definitely be cool with dreesen. he would've put up better numbers without daniels there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osi724dasack Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 I'm starting to really like Fleener Alot Almost wouldn't mind him at 32 In Reese I trust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allstarjim Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I'm starting to warm up to him as well. At 6'6", he's a bigger target than Allen, and while I don't think Fleener is the next Rob Gronkowski, he could be the next Jason Witten. I don't see a lot of video on him, don't know why, but this year it's a lot tougher to find quality video to do your own analysis of these propects' play. I do like his hands, though. He had a beautiful one-hander in the end zone I saw that was real impressive, and he seems to try and always catch the ball with his hands, away from his body. LaDarius Green on the other hand... A BIG NO THANKS. I watched two games of his snaps and it was enough to convince me this guy is a long, long way from being a productive player in the NFL. The one thing you do see is he's fast... when he gets the ball and has some open space. But he does not play like a big man in close quarters... even against smaller defenders. Two or three times I saw him mis-time jumps on a ball thrown up for grabs, leading to interceptions or incompletes (again, against much smaller guys). Two times in a row they went to a fade route in the bowl game with him, and two times in a row he let a small corner body him up... he plays like a small man, not using his size to his advantage. He just seems afraid to be physical. In blocking situations, he doesn't deliver any punch... just tries to push with his hands, doesn't get his legs involved. He runs lazy routes. Doesn't seem to know what a "cut" is. And there were quite a few drops in there, too... I question whether he really has the hands to play in the NFL. His QB sucked, I'll give him that. But that guy might not ever be a starting TE in the NFL. I did not see a very exciting player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMFP Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I'd like to see about Tony Gonzalez.....a smart, classy player, would probably fit in really well with Eli....and he likely wouldn't cost too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herc Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 gonzalez will disappear for an entire game too. TE is evolving too much to sign an older guy and im sure there are plenty of cheaper options out there somewhere. ballard was super slow and managed to have good games for us. with our offense as long as you got a decent head on your shoulders and some size you should be able to find the soft spots in the zones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 2 TEs who won't be available for us till midseason.. two TEs who didn't exactly set the league on fire.. it's imperative we draft a good TE and sign a veteran, IF Gonzalez can be brought here for the right price, I can't think of a better option.

He can't. He's signed to the Falcons for 1 more year and I believe he said this would be his final season. We have as much of a chance of getting Tony Gonzalez as we do of getting Mario Williams.

BIGBLUE01 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Good call Osi. I didnt really pay much attention to Bennett, but after reading up on him, I think he would fit the Giants far better than he fit with the cowcraps. I want this guy. And I read on either ESPN or NFL.com, that we may sign 2 FA TEs. Anyone else see or hear this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osi724dasack Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 I just read that he's close to signing for 4 years and $19 million with $7 mill guaranteed. If true that's a good deal for both sides. I think coach pope gets all the talent out of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
