Quote:

Tweedy was not a regular starter at VT but he spearheaded the team�s punt coverage, and the Giants have been looking for a solid gunner on specials. David Tyree was the best they�ve had over the past decade or so and he was succeeded by Devin Thomas, whose play helped the Giants get to Super Bowl XLVI. Tweedy has size (6�2″, 197) and speed (a 4.39 40 time) and can also be counted on to dial up a safety blitz. Against FSU last November Tweedy had six tackles, 1 1/2 that went for a loss.

Giants have 77 players on their roster and seven draft picks. That leaves room for 6 UDFAs. Total roster limit is 90 players.

I've got 77 as well on my cap list. Add 6 picks, and the total is 84. Don't forget that the Giants may still go out and sign 1 or 2 veteran free agents. A LB like Karlos Dansby would make sense.

Could be cut as well and the draftees do not count until they are signed so you could see 10-15 today but some could be cut later on

Robert Nunn went to his pro-day and he came up for a visit.
6'4 335 lbs. "The Dancing Bear" Would be another big body for camp and he could land on the Practice Squad for sure.

Ohio State LB Etienne Sabino ... UDFA ... RT @bino6 GMEN!!!

Reunited with John Hankins

Art Stapleton ‏@art_stapleton 2m
Ohio State linebacker and NY native Etienne Sabino as UDFA with #NYG

Let's concentrate on the available players that fit a need.

What are those needs? Let's list them:

OLB
MLB
CB
WR
OT
TE
RB

We're going to be signing less than the usual amount of rookie undrafted free agents this year simply because of the amount of players already on the roster (77), including the 7 drafted free agents (84). The roster limit is 90, so we can expect 6 at most now.

If the Giants were to officially sign 6 rookie undrafted free agents tonight, then they'd have to cut someone from the roster if they were to go out and sign any veteran free agents later on this offseason.

Though Sabino played in every game his first two years on campus, he couldn�t get much playing time on defense because of the team�s typical stable of veteran linebacker talent. He had six tackles in each of those seasons as a special teams ace, and returned a blocked punt 20 yards for a touchdown against Purdue in 2008. Sabino then decided to take a healthy redshirt for the 2010 season after losing out on the strong-side job to Andrew Sweat during the summer. Though he was in and out of the lineup as a junior (five starts in 13 games played), Sabino showed promise by making 62 tackles, 6.5 for loss, and two sacks. As a senior, Sabino broke his fibula, and only played in eight games. He managed 45 tackles (3.5 for loss) with two sacks and an interception.
ANALYSIS
STRENGTHS Well-built, athletic linebacker who plays on the strong side and in the middle. Fights through blocks in the hole, and is capable of using violent hands to shed and grab running backs. Brings a powerful punch to pulling guards and fullbacks in the run game, and is tough to keep out of the backfield on A-gap blitzes. Shows enough speed to flow with stretch plays outside to make the stop, and hustles to the ball when there�s any chance to make a play.
WEAKNESSES Lateral movement might be an issue if playing outside; he might not stay on the field in nickel situations unless he proves the short-area quickness to do so at the next level. Plays with a high pad level, failing to break down in the hole against quicker ballcarriers. Must get his hands up consistently when attacking blocks, whether on the edge or against running backs on blitzes. Underwhelming career.
NFL COMPARISON Na�il Diggs
BOTTOM LINE Sabino is versatile prospect capable of rushing the passer, handling tight ends, and holding the point as a strong side �backer and also works hard to plug holes when lined up inside. Sabino still has upside, but will need to prove he can play on special teams.

The move was discussed at the owners meetings last month but was tabled for later consideration. According to Aiello, the NFL Executive Council approved the measure today. The increase is not as large as it may seem at first. With the 80-player limit, unsigned draft picks and some other players would not count against the limit. Under the new limit, the draft picks and others would count."

was Will Hill a UDFA last year?

just a FA?

His first year out of school he went undrafted and unsigned. He took the year off to get his act together. After that he recommitted himself and the Giants kept tabs on him until they signed him the year AFTER he came out of college.

....

...

Charles Dieuseul hits people like LT used to.

No. I am not saying he's the next LT. But watch the film. He explodes people. Sopeed and ferocity like you don't see in a linebacker every day.

53 man roster. Giants have a need at TE and LB. Chase Clement and 1 of either Sabino or Dieuseul might actually have a decent shot at the roster. It wouldn't be surprising either if at least 3 of them make the practice squad.

and sorry if this millers the thread, but this site shows how every teams roster was assembled for 2012 (draft picks, UFA's, street FA's college FA's, etc.)

The Giants roster for 2012 had 11 UDFA's (they consider Will Hill a UDFA).

2011 in particular had 5 UDFA's make the team and 4 saw time on the active roster:
Herzlich, Hynoski, Trattou, Paysinger, and Martin Parker
2012 NFL Rosters - How were they assembled - ( New Window )

Giants only have room for 6 UDFAs by our count. While it's possible they can cut guys to make room, don't expect them to sign a dozen or so players.

great website. I haven't went there in a while, and forgot about it. Great stuff.

Figured as much. They've got 77 on the 90 man roster now. The addition of the drafted players, totaling 7, will increase that number to 84 (even though they don't officially count until they're signed, which won't be long from now). That would leave 6. Right now, we've reportedly got 5. 1 more to go maybe?

supplement the roster too, although it's historically doubtful that the Giants take anyone then. Last guy I can remember being drafted then is Safety, Tito Wooten---and of course Dave Brown before him in '92.

Do you know if there are any big names in the supplemental draft this year? If this is millering this thread, my apologies.

Dunno.

They fave a LB from Ohio State.

I guess the coffee hasn't kicked in yet. The Ohio State LBR is on the list. List looks the same.

He has a 6-7 round pick associated with him.
Quick write-up:

Quote:

STRENGTHS: Athletic Frame and flies all over the field with excellent range and the chase skills to catch ballcarriers from behind. Athletic blitzer and is at his best downhill, working hard to shed blocks with adequate strength and length. ... lacks instincts to start at next level, could be core special teams player...

Looks like he has some nastiness to him. I like what I seen from his highlight film.

I like his form tackling and his nose for the ball. Does anyone have height/weight/speed numbers for him?

6'0" 245lbs. No speed numbers.

I posted a link that has his Pro Day numbers. You can get them from nfldraftscout.com

I agree with Beez. Dieusel (Sp?) reminded me of LT in the explosiveness of his contact. He was like a bullet coming in there. High hopes at this point. Wouldn't it be wonderful again to have a LB with that kind of attack power!?

Sheds blocks well, moves fluidly around traffic and very impressive closing speed once he has the target infront of him... thats why his hits come with a good pop. Leveled the QB a few times. Good form tackling too.

where he leveled the QB, who fumbled, and another offensive guy picked it up and started running, and Diesel got up off the ground and caught him from behind before he even got to the LOS.

Looks like he was brought in to bolster special teams. If he's good, he'll probably bump Sash off the roster.

I think Taylor, the dude from Pitt, Sash and Tweed are competing for one spot.

and the Giants have none!!!!!!!!!!!!

How come?

it may only be because he's got one of the best football names of all time and because we need an LB, but I'm optimistic about Charles Dieuseu.

Because maybe the Giants did not think as highly about some of the names or were outbid or were not a desirable location. If you are a QB for example you are not making the Giants barring injury

"Chuck Diesel" explodes through a tackle....he's my official underdog pick for 2013...really hoping he can bring it on the next level.

Kenny Miles - posted in Gamecock Nation: According to our Mike Davis, Kenny Miles has signed with the Giants.

toward the 90-man roster limit maybe things have changed. Last year when move to 90-man roster limit was announced, Greg Aiello of the NFL tweeted this:

‏@gregaiello 23 Apr 12

90-player limit will include active, inactive, practice squad, exempt, reserve lists, unsigned draft choices, franchise FAs.

But now in response to a fan question -

‏@gregaiello 31m

No. RT @shlynch: @gregaiello Do unsigned draft picks count against a team's 90 man roster limit?

So either they've changed the rule within the past year or just Aiello is confused.

trying to be malicious, but why don't you post on Eagles boards? Or maybe you do and just like getting our perspective as well?

but you guys are more intelligent than the average Eagles fan(myself not included of course). There's some smart guys over at the kffl.com Eagles board, but the main board at the Eagles' official website is pretty worthless. Plus, there tend to be some asshats here that have actual inside info that you won't find elsewhere.

it, thanks.

You're an intelligent and good poster. I cited what you said last year earlier in this thread as evidence of that. Glad you're on BBI (even if you do root for the Eagles, lol).

That Aiello tweet is weird.

I'd wager that technically drafted players don't count on the 90-man roster until they're signed. Correct, or no?

Is the confusion, I think

man roster until they're actually signed. Right now, the Giants have 77 players listed as being officially on their roster.

Giants roster

pretty much a prototypical size-speed combo. Built like a light TE, speed and agility of a much smaller man. Yards per this year was over 18. Has some work ethic questions, willingness to block and to run out plays when he isn't getting the ball, but if he can harness it he has a shot to be a solid contributor.

RVacchianoNYDN
RT @gregaiello After further review, unsigned draft choices DO count on roster. Change was made when roster limit went from 80 to 90.
less than 1 minute ago in reply to gregaiello from HootSuite

for the clarification

That's an important bit of information. That means that we add the 7 Giants draft picks from these past few days to the 77 players already on the roster, leaving us with a total f 84 players on the 90 man roster. That leaves 6 open spots.

but they'll have some non-roster invites and they'll probably end up cutting one or two of them.

ummm...we seem to be one over the limit?

.

nygirlie - See Dundedin81's post above yours.

but if we signed 7, we are over the 90 limit right now if no one has been let go?

one or two of them might just have been invited to minicamp without being formally signed (non-roster invites).

they're not necessarily officially signed, which is what non-roster invitees are.

Since none have been signed, are they part of the total number?

Davis has a ton of skill but as Dune mentioned he needs motivation. Plus he was part of one of the worst offensive coaching staffs in College Football. I think his best days are ahead of him.

got it. thanx.

Marcus Davis is the one player I had slated for us to pick in the 7th round. Now hearing he was picked us a UDFA is totally awesome, guy has awesome tools just needs to get his head on straight, what better place to get his head straight as within big blue's locker room. I think he can complete and win the last WR spot leaving Jernigan as a cut casualty.

Anyone else have any insight on Davis?

reporting that Marcus Davis got a $15,000 signing bonus from Giants. That is about the tops they have paid an UDFA.

That name rings a bell... I feel like I might have seen something about it on Twitter, but I can't find anything.
