I took it to the bank. They looked at me like I was crazy.

because we need a big back that can pass block and smash for yards.

Yup, 6'4 265 lb RB's that run a 4.5 are dime a dozen.

They got what looks to be a guy with an upside last year. They still need OL and a few other positions more than RB.

I like Perkins, but he shouldn't be a reason to not draft someone that we think might be better.

Donnell Pumphrey

Robinson

Wherever we select we should move up and trade our 3rd round pick. Reese has a gift for selecting 3rd rounders who stink. I just looked at the list from 2007 and it isn't pretty.

I was there:

No one could read your hand writing.

For them to take one in any f the early rounds he would have to scream BAP when they were picking for them to take one.

wonder if he will be around in the 4th or 5th Rd?
He did have a health issue in the past (glad the kid got thru it too!)....The kid from Pitt.

James Conner RB 6-2 235 JR

Highest priority will be DE if we let JPP walk.

If we retain JPP, then priorities switch to RT, TE and LB despite the Giant-thought process over the past decade of where value exists on the field.

All subject to Free Agency targets of course...

Fornette and Cook will be long gone IMO
I like Foremen because he is 6'1" 249 with break away speed .
Nice to pair up with Perkins ... I would have no problem
if they drafted him .

McCaffrey

Handwriting mistakes can prove disastrous....

take a "playmaker" in round one. I think a tough, run smashing blocking Guard would really help this offense assuming the value is there.

He's a NY Giant DE is I ever saw one.

Was thinking the same thing. Taco Charlton is 6'6, 275 lbs and has tremendous athletic ability. Charlton on the strong side with Vernon on the weak would be a great combo going forward, that is assuming they don't re-sign JPP if his asking price is too high.

I'd like to see the Giants go after G Brian Winters on the Jets. He's 25 and has improved each year. He won't cost as much as Kevin Zeitler. i would also target WR Michael Floyd in Free Agency and release Cruz if he won't accept a pay cut. I'd also like to see them go after a TE in Free Agency. Jack Doyle and Vance McDonald are two guys I would target.

the first would be great. Move Flowers to RT, bring on Zeitler in FA. I could run for 1k behind that line.

please.

I know you're probably joking but Ramczyk is going to be a monster. Not that im some OL guru, but he seems to have a pretty high floor.

And ceiling for that matter, since this is his first ever year in an FBS program. Hoping he stays for year 2.

I wouldn't mind taking a hard look at.

Travis Frederick and Rob Havenstein? Let's not draft a player because of the school? That's not good logic.
