monk 205 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Giants are fine at QB ... Daniel Jones 1st 2 seasons compare very similarly to Josh Allen and Baker Mayfield.both of whom are on much better teams. Give him Sanquan, another receiving weapon and continiur to build the Oline and Jones will put up similar numbers. WR 1 - through Free Agency is the way to go ... this will Allow the Gianst to pick the Defensive difference maker that they have been missing forever. Parsons, Rousseau or KwityPayne. Pick# 2 the Best Guard or Center available ... Pick 3 # Corner of or In line TE Then they will be a playoff team Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RC94 2,081 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 From Rotoworld: Quote Giants hired Rob Sale as offensive line coach. Sale and Giants head coach Joe Judge were together at Alabama a decade ago. Sale spent three years as Louisiana's offensive coordinator -- a stretch in which the Ragin' Cajuns broke many offensive school records, including total offense (6,918), total touchdowns (69), most rushing yards (3,604), most rushing touchdowns (42) and most passing touchdowns (27). The team's production caught the attention of NFL decision makers, and Sale now starts what could be his ascent to an offensive coordinator job in the league. For now, he'll toil under offensive coordinator Jason Garrett, who led one of the NFL's worst offenses in 2020. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As far as potential departures/cuts go, I think they kinda HAVE to sign Williams but it's a sure bet the other guys are probably gone (I like Gallman Jr. but Barkley will be back and they can always use a cheap retread like Alfred Morris to back him up). I think they keep Zeitler, but that's about it. This new staff has no loyalties to guys like Mayo or Cody Core. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In a vacuum I think Solder would be a better option at RT than Flemming, even with Solder having to switch sides. But I don’t think he would be four times better. The Giants front office is going to have to get creative with the cap. Quick question did Matt Peart play any guard last season? I know the Giants did a lot of moving players around but don’t recall if Peart played guard at all. I get that it wouldn’t be an ideal spot for a guy that big, I’m just curious. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JAK Straw 21 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 If Giant cut Solder his dead cap is $10.5mm. If they keep him he costs $16.5mm. So the decision isn't Solder for $16.5mm, its Solder playing RT for an additional $6mm. Not saying they should keep him at that price, just that the money they gain by cutting him isn't $16.5mm.

I thought he was gone but Giants like him as a blocker (mountain of a man) and he does good work as a 3rd TE in the jumbo sets. He really did work against Seattle if I remember, when Giants neutralized Jamal Adams by going 3 TE and just playing smashmouth football. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It should amaze me that he still has a job, but Mara only hires friends and friends of friends so it's not surprising. IMO the real problem starts with the trust fund baby.

kodycutter 963 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Rapoport: sounds like Tomlinson will be a priority While appearing on the Giants Huddle podcast earlier this week, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport implied the Giants also view Tomlinson as a top priority and will do everything they can to re-sign him. “It sounds like he is a priority [for the Giants],” Rapoport said. “Now I know he’s going to be coveted. If you’re a team like the Giants, you draft well enough where a mid-rounder becomes a really coveted free agent, that’s someone you’d like to keep. I think for Dalvin Tomlinson, the interesting thing for the Giants is not that he’s a very good player, he is a very good player, but he’s also a leader.
