Giants will be working out kickers tomorrow, including Garrett Hartley, with their depth K struggling and Josh Brown facing 1gm suspension
PKs blow hot and cold. They can be great for a few years, shit  
Big Blue '56 : 8/21/2016 8:35 pm : link
for a year or two, then good/great again. He's been rather shitty of late, but this fan's preference is Scobee..
Nobody

Gives a shit. Outside of 2-3 guys everyone else is in a pool of 35-40 guys who can kick a football through an upright. Go find one, dump the wife beater and fuck Obarski. He had a shot, he failed, out you go.
Can they work out some TEs too?  
RobCarpenter : 8/21/2016 8:46 pm : link
The human ole (Donnell) needs to go.
Is Randy Bullock  
Mike Graves : 8/21/2016 8:47 pm : link
A free agent? He filled in well for the jets when Folk went down last year
Josh Scobee!

Whats the list of FA pk look like?

If the Giants knew about this I am surprised they haven't already.  
robbieballs2003 : 8/21/2016 8:55 pm : link
Or have they? It seems very reactive like they didn't know this Brown situation was going on even though they did. Maybe they thought with the evidence that came out that he wouldn't be suspended?
Wish they'd take a look at Jake Long

To at least gauge where he is at health wise.

As @JasonLaCanfora said, #Giants scheduled veteran K Garrett Hartley for a workout. Best available Ks: Hartley, Josh Scobee, Randy Bullock.

I realize they did. He was still recovering from injury. It couldn't hurt to get an update. Hell, Long at 80% is likely superior to Newhouse/Flowers.
Scobee for 1 game

And look to cuts coming up
How about

I'll see your Eric Shubert and raise you a Bjorn Nittmo
At least..

we can cross Gay off the list too. Guy was terrible for the Bills.

Not that there is anything wrong with it!
He was..

having trouble putting it between the pipes, but smacked the post good once.
I guess if we had to for Game 1, the Giants could  
Jimmy Googs : 8/22/2016 8:34 am : link
run behind Donnell on 4th down instead of going for the field goal.
Is Scobee  
ryanmkeane : 8/22/2016 10:30 am : link
really old or something? Thought he was one of the better kickers in the league recently.
Just let Odell Beckham do it.

He missed 4 kicks in the first 4 games of last year and the Steelers cut bait. He had a couple pretty tough years in JAX as well.

I agree I would like to see Bullock signed and I don't think his entire salary will be guaranteed if he is on the week one roster like it would if Hartley is signed.
Over the past two seasons  
Jay on the Island : 8/22/2016 11:30 am : link
Bullock has hit 84% of his kicks.

We see this all the time. Also journeymen kickers who try out for numerous teams and are rarely signed become great kickers.
Can't wait to see who we brought in  
ghost718 : 8/22/2016 11:50 am : link
Long John Silver and Grandma with the wooden leg
I didn't think..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 8/22/2016 12:12 pm : link
it was possible but the bashing Reese troll actually is going to rip him for the K situation.

What a fucking tool.
LardAss in Charlotte  
ghost718 : 8/22/2016 12:14 pm : link
How's it going buddy,nice to see you again
Can't say the feeling..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 8/22/2016 12:20 pm : link
is mutual. Not sure how you haven't been banned yet since you only have one slant in EVERY post.

Bashing Reese in a thread about kickers is the height of stupidity.
Well you keep trying,maybe one day it will happen  
ghost718 : 8/22/2016 12:23 pm : link
But I have a feeling the mods know what I'm about,it's been about 4-5 years now.

arcarsenal : 8/22/2016 12:26 pm : link
At least if your jokes were funny, your schtick wouldn't be so awful.. but the humor is really just brutal. I wonder if you post this stuff and think to yourself "man, that was a good one!"
Well it's too bad it's not a show  
ghost718 : 8/22/2016 12:38 pm : link
I don't know how I would be able to continue.

But good luck with yours

I felt bad for him. I had a few beers with him and their punter, Schmidt, at a charity event back in March. He seemed like a good guy.

Yeah and how many times have you been banned? Don't you have anything better to do?
Randy Bullock sucks ass.  
Mr. Bungle : 8/22/2016 1:09 pm : link
I hope they don't consider him for a minute.
Wonder if they're signing Garrett Hartley?
