He was the 70s Joe Montana. Craig was hit by LT to cough up that ball for the 1990 Championship game that ended the Three Peat. LT did that to a lot of people D. Craig played at my High School's cross town rival back in the 70s. He was a fucking man playing against boys. He put 370 years on us. In the 80s I worked construction with one of his cousins and I got met him a handful of times. He is a great fucking guy. ...like, run into you at O'Hare airport 35 years later and he still remembers you type of great fucking guy. I have no idea why he isn't in the Hall of Fame...if Marcus Allen, J.Bettis, and Terrell Davis are. He was probably the most fundamentally sound back ever and could do everything at a 90 percentile level....block, chip, run, catch, read coverages and blitz packages. I think he even threw a TD pass or two....but I need to double check that. I think he finally gets in this year but its way over due and shouldnt have had to been done by the Vets Committee.

C.W agon For sure I agree... Roger Craig was always a class act and he was one of the few running backs for opposing teams back then I did not dislike. Kudo to you. Yes LT changed the game and was the source of nightmares. Danny White for the Broke Backs was so focused on him that Carl Banks planted him on a blind sack and broke his wrist in 86. He was never the same again and the Giants won the SB that year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe - but you said, if someone gets drafted early, its not getting drafted early, the mock drafts were wrong. Im saying Jones got drafted early and the mock drafts werent. But then again - the Giants really fucked him up too in every way possible - so its up for grabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any of those guys would be great in the 2nd if available. Wouldn't mind a trade down to 11-15 for Bowers in the 1st then taking a WR in the 2nd, assuming we can't get Jayden Daniels. I'd love to see us get Denver's 1st this year and 1st next year in this trade scenario, setting us up for a high QB draft pick next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmenroc Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I would shit a golden brick outta my deek for Surtain, 12th overall this year and 1st rounder next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Surtain is prob a top 10 non-qb building block on a rookie contract. Giants fan twitter really ran wild with that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted April 22 Author Share Posted April 22 I'd do that trade in a second but no way is it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
