The way she states that the Giants aren't going to tag JPP you would think it was a fact. Just the opposite. Tagging JPP is the likelihood. Why do I say that? Because it's my opinion. See how easy it is to state an opinion as if it's a fact.

This is the time of year when we all form our opinions about what the Giants should do in the off-season and we assume the front office sees it exactly as we do.

Here are some of my assumptions....
1. The Giants will either tag JPP or sign him to a multi-year deal. Probably both.
2. The Giants will not sign Whitworth (I doubt he even makes it to free agency).
3. The Giants will not sign Reiff.
Haason Reddick would be a great pick at 23

He's not the same type of player as Floyd. Game is more complete and coverage ability is better.

Have to disagree with you on JPP, especially the Tag. They are not wrapping up 50% of their cap space on one player. I want JPP back, but he is going for the money and Jax, to me, is the team that will pay him based on the bidding war they had with the Giants over O.V. JPP is marginally better than OV. Yes he is 3 years older, but still 4 years is reasonable to expect at a high level of play.

No opinion of OL. Just hope that they get somebody at least at one of the positions and hopefully two.
