Trindon Holliday

Wilson

But I agree, it does seem like he's more likely out than in. I also agree that it'd be a shame if he doesn't make the squad. I previously thought Jernigan was a lock. I still have him far more likely than not, but the fact that there's even a conversation to be had about him is sort of alarming for me.

My WRs haven't changed much over the last 2 weeks.

Cruz
Randle
Beckham
Jernigan
Washington
Holliday

main concerns going into the season is the lack of speed on offense with ODB and TH on the shelf...not that TH was necessarily going to contribute as a WR but it appeared he might surprise in that area. As of now, I'm almost assuming he is cut and who knows when ODB will be able to make any significant impact.

I forgot what Holliday's injury is

get healthy!!

For Holliday to make the roster he needed to show he could contribute in other ways than as a returner. You can't have one of your 5 WR spots in the 45 man spent on a guy that is a returner only. Leaves you too short at WR. Holliday isn't some rookie he's a know commodity as a WR and what was known wasn't good. That and he has ball security issues. If he'd been healthy could the Giants have coached him up to contribute otherwise. I have doubts. I think he was always a long shot.

Don't do an image search online for "Preston Parker" with Safe Search off. I warned you.

on PR these past two years. Coughlin seems to particularly value ball security on PR and Holliday hasn't had the chance in the preseason to prove that he can fix that problem. Also, Demps has basically the same KR average so its no great downgrade from Holliday to Demps on KRs.

Giants could have gotten him for a song, that is Fresno State's all time kick returner and slot receiver Isiah Burse

and 166 lbs, he's got to be one of the smallest players in the NFL.

Burse is also taller and has played QB in College

would ahve loved Reese to pick him up, was projected to go in rds 6 or 7, but was a UDFA

Played quarterback and safety as a California prep, leading his team to a small school state championship. Appeared in all 13 games as a true freshman in 2010 and caught 13 balls for 190 yards (14.6-yard average) and two touchdowns. Played all 13 games (one start) in '11, snagging 40-436-1 (10.9) while setting a single-season FBS record for kickoff returns and yards with 75-1,606 (21.4). Started 11-of-13 games in '12 and produced 57-851-6 (14.9). Started all 13 games in '13, racking up 100-1,026-6 (10.3). For his career, returned 126 kickoffs for 2,835 yards (22.5) and 29 punts for 344 yards (11.9). Also rushed 32 times for 191 yards (6.3) and completed a 43-yard touchdown pass as a freshman. Team captain.

But if through some God forsaken calamity both Holliday and JJ both end up on our WR squad, then we might as well change the team's name from Giants to the "NY Shrimps."

Preston Parker is also the name of a male adult film star.

Straight, I hope...unless you're so inclined to roll that way....

Parker has been used there. And is a better receiver.

for speed....one long td and Calhoun made the squad....next thing you know we are signing guys off the street cause he sucked....

The decision will be made based on who is a better receiver. Parker has proven to be a serviceable NFL receiver who also happens to be a reliable return man on top of it.

There's no doubt Holliday is an explosive returner and an absolute weapon to have but he does not factor into the offense (other than maybe some designated gadget plays drawn up for him).

Parker simply has much more value, especially when you consider Beckham and Washington are both rookies. Giants will do the smart thing and buy the steak not the sizzle here. Need depth and experience at the WR position, even if it means sacrificing Holliday's return ability.

and keep both Holiday and Parker

i havent been on these boards long but your posts continue to drive me up a fucking wall

why would the giants IR odell? please tell me their 1st round pick who has been practicing who they drafted to contribute this year will go on IR? why? because he isnt playing preseason games? should have IR'd strahan all the preseason games he missed in his tenure

Did I miss something or is catching balls from a Jugs machine now considered practicing??
