Giants settling all family business today. They will not be re-signing TE Larry Donnell. He'll be a free agent.
its third down and instead of beating one guy he goes out of bounds with no physical contact. Think it was the Ravens game. Lucky Eli hooked up with Odell and got the first on the 4th down play.
his potential during his rookie season. Great athlete who got pretty far in his chosen profession.
Wonder if his critics who so cleverly have fun with a man losing his job, have gotten as far in their life ventures.
Oh, please. Spare me the sanctimony. He wasn't good at his job, which involved being paid rather nicely. The team will be improved by his departure. He will likely land elsewhere. Cry me a motherbleeping river.
but I also thought he was misused. His talent is in winning contested jump balls. To me he seemed like he should have been used as a red zone specialist split wide. That's a valuable role, and his presence didn't need to go beyond that.

This is not a middle school soccer league in which everyone gets participation trophies. The guy has consistently proven he's not good enough to do this job. Let's not treat this like a factory worker losing his job through no fault of his own.
Donnell was an UDFA making a position change. He was a project. He overperformed the Giants' investment in him, he got a lot better, but not good enough -- not good enough to justify to continue investing in him. I hope he goes somewhere in the AFC and plays a long time and makes a lot of money. Or at least has a good life, whatever he does.
Am I going to miss him on the Giants? What is there to miss? But I don't have any ill-will toward the guy.
I didn't say it was the wrong move. And I was excited about his potential. But don t lecture about being sactimonious. I don't find humor in the ridiculing of others, never have.
I ve known several professional athletes who's careers came to an end before they were ready. It rips them apart, it s not funny.
Unfortunately some of the Giants read the crap we see here. I think it stinks and I don t really care if you like it or not

Don't be sanctimonious, and you won't get called out about it. And *I* don't care whether *you* like it or not.

Exactly. It's one thing to say that the decision to not re-sign him was justified (because it is), but it's another to gloat or shit on the guy because he ran his course on the team. I get it if the guy was known to be an asshole and/or slacker who didn't take his job seriously, but that's not the case here. He came across as a good guy who just never developed into the player that we thought he would be and had two bad seasons in a row. I doubt the guy wanted things to turn out the way they did, so why act like it's a personal affront?

He did more than get the first he won the game on that play
It's implied.
L.O.L
Unaware of down and distance, ill-timed jumping in the air.
Size and athleticism but zero football instincts.
Lands on his feet
Wait...
Wonder if his critics who so cleverly have fun with a man losing his job, have gotten as far in their life ventures.

Also agree. Best wishes Larry. Thanks for your contributions to the Giants. Will never forget your great TD catch to help us beat the 49ers. Wow.
He did more than get the first he won the game on that play
