Joey from GlenCove : 4/29/2016 7:48 am : link

We are -1 pick maybe we could have picked up something.
Father is a Philthy fan.

Annie Apple combines all of these traits in one, compact frame that would be a lock for the No. 1 spot in a Sports Mom draft. The best way to consume Annie’s brand of Sports Momming is on Twitter, via @SurvinAmerica. There, she kicks her legitimately funny brand of humor, and shows off an impressive command of au courant pop culture references and memes. (As you’ll see, she expertly dropped multiple allusions to Birdman’s instantly iconic Breakfast Club appearance just days after it got big.)

You have to feel good for his family though. What an exciting time for them.
I have strong contacts that work for the Dolphins  
George from PA : 4/29/2016 7:54 am : link
and they said....we took their pick. He would have lasted 2 spots....not much chance to trade down.

Granted, who knows with Tunsil dropping.

Thanks George. My brother is a Jags fan and said the Jags had Apple high too (no inside info, just local reports).
That's very cool

Eli legally changed his last name to honor his step father who has been very influential in who he is today. Very cool story.

That Modasucka is a Philly fan seems like he's coming over to The Giants as well.
Awesome.

He called each major FA add, nailed the draft board and called the Eli Apple pick when Floyd was still on the board. He clearly has a good source.

I'll try to "hunt" down hitdog's post.
Gotcha Dep.  
Jon in NYC : 4/29/2016 8:54 am : link
Raanan specifically mentions him as someone the Giants like in his most recent article.
Very nice.....  
Simms11 : 4/29/2016 8:56 am : link
He's one big corner too! he certainly has all the measurable so you're looking for in a CB.

mom comes off as very funny on social media. Hopefully it doesn't "go the wrong way" but she even referenced the Birdman stuff. lol
Alright  
Joey in VA : 4/29/2016 9:52 am : link
I'm in. I was floored that we passed on several guys but after reading more BS about some of the ills of those prospects I'll take it. Reach? Maybe but projecting him as a 20 year old Sophomore maybe the value looks better in a year or two. If he goes back to OSU maybe he's top 5 material next year.
Am I the only..

Amukamara, perhaps
Of course..

I meant Amukamara. TRhe other one probably looks like skeletor right now and I don't even want to think what Uncle Phil look like in his casket.

I've seen it mentioned a few times that teams were all over him and had him high on their board. Sounds like he wouldn't have made it past 13 or even 12. Solid pick. Good young athletic kid with great attitude and upside. First thing that I thought was why didn't we trade back. And then it sort of all makes sense now. Giants stuck to their board. I think Giants fans will be very happy with the pick in a couple years especially.
Annie Apple is a great name

Take a bite out of the Big Apple!
it's comforting to me  
djm : 4/29/2016 11:08 am : link
that the secondary is 3 deep at corner and in general it's a young ascending group. Nothing wrecks a season like when a guy who should be on the street is trying to help the NYG defense stop someone in the 4th quarter.

Works for me. He obviously checked off a lot of boxes for NYG. He certainly looks the part. Can't get too worked up about supposed value or mocks or where this guy should have been picked. HE's obviously a legit talent.

Unfortunately Mama Apple is a cowboys fan
