lemmiwinks Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 GIANTS They made the trade with the Steelers and ended up taking Mathias Kiwanuka at 32. This was a really smart selection. Kiwanuka, a great athlete, can give Michael Strahan a rest to keep him fresh. He also will in on third downs to get to the opposition's quarterback, which he did so well at Boston College. Imagine Strahan, Kiwanuka, Osi Umenyiora, and Lavar Arrington rushing the quarterback on third down. Kiwanuka is also a great person, and that means something to the Giants. And the Giants thought about taking Sinorice Moss at 32, and couldn't resist trading up for him in the second round. Moss told me last week the Giants had serious interest in him. His lightning quick speed is something they don't have in the passing attack and he helps immediately as a returner. Moss was the Giants highest rated receiver. Gerris Wilkinson adds needed depth at linebacker. The third round pick was the best defender for Georgia Tech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nosebleed Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Maybe fools forget, they already had someone to spell Strahan and rush on third down, Justin Tuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaginCaucasian Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Maybe fools forget, they already had someone to spell Strahan and rush on third down, Justin Tuck. Good point but who backs up Osi on the other side? Thin air? If we get hit with a rash of injuries on the D-line where are we to get a good pass rush end from? Those guys don't fall off of trees nor are they hanging around as street FA's, I initially was unhappy with the Kiwanuka pick but when you think about it he was one of the best players available. For once the Giants didn't draft for positional need & took the BPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shockjock Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 You know I recall two other times we simply took the best player and athlete available, even though we were loaded at their particular positions..... Those picks turned into LT and Carl Banks......lets have some faith boys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lockhart Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Maybe fools forget, they already had someone to spell Strahan and rush on third down, Justin Tuck. You got that right - Ernie managed to draft someone in the only position the Giants didn't need any help in - then he picks a guy he probably could have got with the Giants original second round pick. What a dope! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gateb Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 What happend to Moore, did he get shot or someting? No, he sucks. And I think he's LB too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jints Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 No, he sucks. And I think he's LB too... NO, he is a DE and I believe he was the better prospect out of the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hey Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 NO, he is a DE and I believe he was the better prospect out of the draft. No, he sucks. And I think he's LB too... He's both: Naturally a DE, but learning how to play LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmiwinks Posted May 7, 2006 Author Share Posted May 7, 2006 NO, he is a DE and I believe he was the better prospect out of the draft. What? Moore was a better prospect then who? Cause it sure as shit wasnt Kiwa or Tuck? Eric Moore Round 6, pick 12 (186 overall) SI PROJECTED: Late Fifth Round Justin Tuck Round 3, pick 10 (74 overall) SI PROJECTED: Mid First Round Mathias Kiwanuka Round 1, pick 32 (32 overall) top 15 pick this year. Everything looks to him being maybe in the top 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
