Nas Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Oh don't do that, here look at these Giggidity Selected by the Giants as the 20th overall pick in the 2007, Ross is coming off a season in which he was benched twice for struggling in coverage. it better be a veteran minimum... the dude flat out sucks...

Mr. P Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I guess we could do worse at 3rd or 4th corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osi724dasack Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 Can't do any better then Ross as a 4th or 5th CB The guy is cheap, knows the system, elevates his game in big moments, can tackle. It's a win, win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nas Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I've made it clear I'm no fan of Ross but in retrospect there were times when he played well... I guess for vet minimum I'd have to like the signing... I do expect Webby to come back to form willing to believe last year was an aberration... however if he continues to suck, I guess Ross can step in and suck a little less.

boohyah Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Prince Hosley Webster Thomas Ross I still think we need vet help for depth, but this could be worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 @RVacchianoNYDN Aaron Ross' deal with the Giants was for one year. His salary is the veteran minimum: $715,000. Not sure of bonus yet. good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiLLaKyLe Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 At first, I wasn't a fan of this signing at all. But after hearing his interview on Giants.com, it sounds like he genuinely wants to be here. I remember early in his career he considered retirement, so I always questioned his commitment to the team. Listening to that interview was the first time I really thought he seemed committed to making the team better. Hopefully him continually saying "It's great to be home" will make him compete harder than he did early on in his career. Good depth with the ability to start games in place of an injured player. Can't help but like this pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueInCanada Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 I don't see how this is a bad thing that some here are making it out to be. Honestly how many CBs did we have on and off the injury list? Fuck it seemed like every week two were getting healthy and another two were going on the list. He knows the system and is a vetern of the game, I'd have no problem seeing him on the field in nickle and dime situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storm Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Ross was always one of my favorite Giants defenders....coming off the Will and Will era, Ross might not have been a shut down corner. What he was though, was a guy with heart who even though he occasionally got beat by better athletes than himself, he found ways to kick it up a notch at important times in the season. 2011 without Ross playing as well as he did down the stretch could have turned out very differently.

Storm Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 the contract is vet minimum. Did I read someone post that vet minimum deals don't count toward the salary cap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Did I read someone post that vet minimum deals don't count toward the salary cap? I think it's not exactly true, it's something like the top 51 contracts count towards it. So the top 51 are likely higher than vet minimum. I think that's only during the offseason though.
