Ball State UDFA WR Willie Snead will have a tryout with #Giants, I'm told. Was waived by Browns over weekend. Guessing PS in play. #NYG



If only we had Norm Snead...

Snead-to-Snead.
This kid is pretty good and I was surprised he wasn't drafted

I think he's another collegiate #3 who idolized Victor Cruz.
I see what it was

bad combine. Good player, though.
given the Browns lack of depth at WR

I'm surprised he didn't latch on there after spending camp with them. Came out early and went undrafted, 4.62 40 time didn't help that.
Led MAC in receptions, yards & TDs in 2013

Try out players we don't need...hope we have
oline and te guys in...veterans preferred
The Browns could really, really, really use a good WR right now.

So I'm guessing he's not that.
Here's his highlight ...

Looked like Harris was going to beat out both Parker & Jerenigan before he got hurt and went to IR - this is the slot the Giants are trying to fill, with a better player.
Sorry ...

2:05 was pretty neat.
Thanks for the video!

The kid looks like he has good hands and is tough.

Unfortunately, he also looks slow, and other than what is probably blown coverage, can't get much separation. Don't see that playing well in the NFL.
This is what

we mean when we say that the last 5-8 spots on the roster will be fluid this year. 1. They're not satisfied with the overall talent level. This guy plays a position of alleged strength, if you listen to Giants fans. 2. The whole off-season, OTAs, mini-camp, training camp model is overrated. Guys like this get signed all the time. Wish him well in his endeavors. And,yes, Norman should pitch it to him and Sam should help him with his slice.
It's clear

The roster is a work in progress. The question is, is there any legitimate talent out there that could really help the NYG in a significant way? Without Beckham contributing and with no real threat at TE the offense doesn't have fire power to compete with other offenses. Run the ball guys...

You never know. The Jets were pretty desperate for a good WR when they cut Victor Cruz.

I believe there are still 2 open spots on the PS  
njm : 9/2/2014 12:34 pm : link
Probably a tryout for that.
