I am thoroughly confused at this point as to what is going to happen with the O-Line.
Flowers - Pugh - Richburg - Jerry - Newhouse?
Is that the lineup we're going to be running out game 1?
If we had been able to secure one of the top 3 OL, then the player would have been starting from day 1, which even for a top 10 pick doesn't mean he's going to have immediate success (Flowers), I can't imagine they are going to take any the remaining OT's and have them start this season.
So is this is? Is this the O-Line for 2016? Someone PLEASE convince me otherwise...
Had Conklin slipped and they took him, you could have asked the question, "What is the plan for the secondary?"

You can plug Hart at one of the two right spots. Giants are very high on him.
They can try that experiment, and hope for the best.....just like they hoped for the best at the safety position last year, and all the wunderkinds Reese said we had for Pass rushers("we are going to surprise a few people with our pass rush").....

The other positions of need on this team can be effectively addressed without investing a 1st round pick in the position. Offensive Tackle cannot.
If he can get him for lets say a conditional 5th, or even a 4th, it would give the Giants the chance to take need picks with value (WR, FS, or DE) in rounds 2 and 3. If not, they will have to draft a lineman tonight.
On June 5, 2015, Davis announced he would not be playing during the 2015 season, stating he wanted time to "let his brain and body heal".
His brain? WTF.....
Sounds like a guy coming back for money, and nothing more....
I wonder if Manning would agree.

I think you could find a lot of people who say a starting cornerback is more valuable than a starting right tackle.
I wonder if Manning would agree.
He probably would if he loses another game after throwing six touchdown passes.

guys need to understand this team has a lot of holes.

Since when. It is very possible to obtain a OT in round 2 or round 3 and get him ready to start week 1. This is not circa NFL 1967.
So this thread would still be here even had the draft went the way they wanted it to go.

What exactly does that have to do with anything?

You are getting very good at being a JR apologist!

And Eric for the win!!!! Well said!!
New York Giants' Big Board - ( New Window )
And that means he still hasn't fixed the o-line after four years of miserable play. In three drafts (two years after he realized his blunderous overlooking of the o'line) JR has only fixed the left side of the o-line.
But don't worry, MacAdoo likes Newhouse. Hard to get excited about a new coach when they say that because as the OC the previous year he has to know he sucks!

Yes because I'm infamous for defending Reese on this board. Give me a fucking break.
Any nitwit can see that CB was a glaring need on this team. Now I have no idea what kind of player Apple will be, but to say I'm an apologist for saying CB was an enormous need is pure garbage.
I know it is wishful thinking, but the starting RT might just be on the team already.
New OLine coach might be able to develop our guys better than Flats did.
I'd add... come to grips with the losses that come with Newhouse as a starting tackle and seeing manning on his back allot.
Just pathetic to think that here we are 6 years after identifying how the o-line had been horribly overlooked and it still isn't fixed yet.

Here I agree. JR made a nitwit pick again!
As I said in another post, Reese should be fired for putting the team in this position that it has to rely on Newhouse.
Brees threw 7 against the worst.....
Maybe Eli throws 8 with a solid #2 WR and a good RT.....
This reminds me of when the Giants targeted Evans and Scherff....and we settle for OBJ and Flowers!!!!

I don't think New York will win a lot of games with the worst defense in the NFL again.

Not sure if you've seen the news, but there's this whole thing about head injuries in the NFL. Those are about the brain.
