If you take a look at Giants1st round picks though the years
you would quickly see that Reese and Coughlin
are by far the best pickers we have had
With the exception of the wierd David Wilson pick they have nailed it every year
looking back at the George Young Era and beyond there were a lot of mind blowing awful picks
What were thinking?
Did we have scouts in the 60s and 70s????
NY Giants 1st Round Choices - (

More like an odd bank shot

I'm starting to think that's exactly what you're going for.
Well done.

You're a troll who has been polluting this board with threads every time an idiotic thought passes through your pea brain.
Imagine Wilson in this offense. He would have been a heck of a weapon.
What you really need to look at is all of the selections made by TC and Reese and an associated status next to each pick:
1) long term starter for team ?
2) no longer on the giants and with another team
3) out of the league
4) out of the league due to serious injury
5) retired
I laughed.
Maybe focus on one good one a day
on the flip side
Young bombed on many 1st rounders yet hit on many after round 1.
You've been here (in this incarnation) for three weeks and you've started around 500 threads.
We don't need every fucking dumbass thought of yours catalogued on here. Maybe shut the hell up for a while?
2) Reese for a while was taking guys in RD # 2 that were RD # 1 talents with injury concerns. See Steve Smith and Terrell Thomas from USC. They were both good players, but there longevity came into question. That was a questionable strategy but it led to 2 Super Bowls. I don't think you can really fault it.
3) The real issue I have is the handling of picks in rds 3-4. Up until recently it felt like another of repeat picks of high ceiling low floor players. So for example, Brandon Mosley and James Brewer they fit that mode. I think if you look at rds 3 and 4 during the super bowl run you'll see almost every one of them is out of football. Bromley may be the exception to that rule. Owa has a chance but he is really part of 2) above. There was one year where the Giants took a huge gamble. Marvin Austin in RD 2. Another high ceiling low floor player. I was screaming for the Giants to draft Austin. Based on the talent at that time it was the right pick. Sometimes you just lose. NYG problem is they took to many of those players in a cluster of years and none of them developed for them.
Get rid of em all, keep em all, Im fine with either.

Does that make young lucky or good
my point was look back through the last 50 years
most of the picks have been horrific
Reese looks like a genius by comparison
I met George at a Giants luncheon, very nice humble person
God Rest His Soul
Go the fuck away.
without going yet I think I will see a big contrast
If so I will send this post to Fat Mike to make his day
1997 Mike if you are on here
they have done well in undrafted players also
but with nothing past second round i think his drafts suck

You seem a lot like the typical WFAN caller.
BBI's worst poster strikes again.
Reese is of course ultimately responsible, but based on the above the crappy 2nd round and later picks were probably his staff's (i.e. Ross's) recommendations/selections.
You seem a lot like the typical WFAN caller.
yeah, he just blows past.others responses and has a narrow, self absorbed view of the world. Bizarre
Consider the following:
There are no BBI rules about the number of threads that one person can start per day.
There is nobody forcing you to click any thread.
If you prefer to engage in the ethics of telling a friend his wife is banging someone else there are threads for that.
This is a valid discussion of the Giants on a Giants message board.
actually feel sorry for them
I do make a lot of threads but usually 993 people jump right on them
why do they read them??????
The most quirky poster of all time was KERRYISTHEMAN
he was a riot. You guys think im a crazy fan......that guy was off
the charts
They were picking all HOF players until Jerry Jones took over
then it sll went to crsp
Cowboys 1st round picks - ( New Window )
All his threads have been football topics. Now we're talking at least 5 of them every day, and I'm probably being kind with that guesstimate.
He's brought the attacking on himself. He starts a thread for damn near every thought that pops into his head. Many topics of which, likely already have threads with similar content already being discussed. It just pollutes an already severely polluted message board with more inane thread topics.
Normally I would appreciate the positive nature of his threads as I'm typically optimistic about our team but plain and simple, every thought he has about the team should not need to be a thread.
He's a perfect example of why this board has plummeted with regards to the quality of football discussion. So by all means, lets keep encouraging the behavior.

So you are admitting you are a dupe. That's really going to help your case here.

Now it's obvious you're just a troll as Martin, Smith, Bryant, Ware, Frederick, E. Smith, Aikman were all 1st Rounders.
Welcome to ignore and enjoy WFAN

ehhhhhhhh those were all Jimmy's picks
When Johnson left it all went to a horror show
and thus we have 1997
but I think Jimmy had the pole position in making picks his first couple of years because he just came from the college ranks and was familiar with the talent. his hit rate might have gone down over time.
I think that hitting on all of your no. 1's is very important. And certainly when you look at Accorsi there were a lot of misses. Significant and important misses.
So you want to jump JR on his third rounders. Well third rounders are not productive generally speaking. And his failure there is not as important. Certainly, we should have been able to find an offensive linemen among all those wasted picks.
His free agency hires have been outstanding and his free agency releases very good too. God I remember the bellows here when he signed Canty and Rolle, yet they helped drive us to a superbowl that year against statistically the toughest road ever.
Sure we've had some lean years. But that's about false and unrealistic expectations. Free agency, the cap, the savagely increasing and totally capricious influence of injuries, the evolution of the sport that make technological advantages unattainable (and it's technological advantages that drove the dynasties of Landry, Lombardi, Brown and Welsch) the rookie cap all these mitigate against the continued run at the top.
A few years ago...Kapernack, Wilson, Luck, And RgIII all make the playoffs as ROOKIES. It used to be unheard of to start four rookies in a season and unimaginable that even one would make the playoffs. They sign contracts, the roster is diminished as a consequence and they come back to earth.
Brees, Rogers, Flacco, Peyton are all superb qb's, playing for superb GM"s and organizations. They've one one each. Yet you find our GM and organization deficient.
The bottom line is only NE is better than us and only Pitts is close (and Pitts is and has had their trouble s too and their playoff runs and superbowls didn't compare.
NE is abberant and the whys of that a subject of another thread.
Leaving NE out we are the best franchise of the decade. Putting NE in we are the second best franchise of teh last decade or over Reese's tenure.
But to defend Reese brings out attacks and I'd say it's his unreasonable attackers who should pause and look at themselves.
Now you're preaching how Kapernack, Wilson, Luck, And RgIII all signed new contracts which diminished their rosters? Really? When did Luck and RGIII sign new contracts?
Frankly it's all trivial. It's a chat board, and your desire to control the content makes you a whinny bitch on a dufus' power trip. No?
Maybe it takes 4 years to re-tool after a championship
The focal point is Eli
I'm fairly certain we will win SB 50....its our destiny
Vegas sees us climbing too
and I truly believe now we will beat an undefeated Patriots team to do it again
A lot of guys on here love to be pessimists, I obviously rub them the wrong way with my rah rah attitude
Whatever
Thus, maybe take a hint, and try your best to not start a thread every time a new thought about the team pops into your head.
That's been the biggest reason for the pile on.
Sorry you can't see it.
in the league, make himself GM and hire his college buddy to coach the team.
I doubt we would have won 2 Lombardis and made 3 SB appearances in the 2000's
LOL The only thing that made the Cowboys relevant was his smartly hiring Parcells (which was an ill fated marriage)
If Bill had stayed there we would have been in big trouble

You are right about that

I might say your threads suck too but I cannot recall any
what are your thought on our chances this year?
Our chances this year? I think we finish strong and make the pats go 18-1 again.
[quote] I think of that no one's discussing and I really feel it would be a good discussion for learning, etc... Otherwise, there's usually a thread discussing whatever topics I'm interested in. Again, trying to give you a hint here. The choice going forward is yours but I'd bet if you laid low with starting threads for awhile while still posting on other threads, you wouldn't receive 1/4 of the backlash you receive. Use the advice or not

Thanks for the advice and I agree about the 18-1
Those people in New England will really hate us
Hey whatayagonnado
I just checked the Vegas odds we are now 18-1 down from 20-1 last week and we are tied with Denver at the #7 slot

BTW staying on topic- what do you think of Reese's #1 picks
vs the horrific picks down the last 50 years at #1
Also don't credit Jerry Jones with Parcells and Johnsons picks if you do the Cowboys #1s comparison Vs Giants
