I hope the Giants add more RB talent

Gallman

area junc : 4/29/2017 6:24 pm : link

is a slasher. He'll fit in nicely on all those shotgun hand-offs we run.

I'd still sign Blount.

Perkins - Vereen - Blount - Gallman is a good group built to withstand the rigors of a 24 game season.

Fwiw, USA Today

Big Blue '56 : 4/29/2017 6:24 pm : link

rated him as the 93rd best on their top 150 list...,I greatly respect their football acumen, generally speaking..

I know nothing about him, but he SOUNDS like a nice complement to Perkins..Stay tuned

You're saying we're a Wild Card weekend team?

Gallman

Mr. Nickels : 4/29/2017 6:26 pm : link

went a round higher than Perkins in a deeper RB class for what it's worth

I only know what I see.

TC : 4/29/2017 6:27 pm : link

And I'm not impressed by what I've seen from Gallman. Best case, he's a journeyman. Not that quick, not that fast, not that elusive, not that powerful. Not a quick-twitch RB. No explosion.

Tion Green is a big back.

TC : 4/29/2017 6:31 pm : link

He's a grinder, but has real power and good vision. Kade Harrington is a poor man's Tarik Cohen.

Look for them to add Kade Harrington

The_Taxman : 4/29/2017 6:33 pm : link

He's like a B version of McCaffery. That being said, if we add him we may have the smallest RB corps in the league. Perkins, Gallman, Vereen and Harrington are all pretty small backs.

Gallman's not that small.

TC : 4/29/2017 6:36 pm : link

But is you comment that they'll add Harrington more than your and mine wishful thinking?

keep

Eric from BBI : Admin : 4/29/2017 6:38 pm : link

in mind we signed the 49ers RB too.

I;m saying were a contender right now

Paulie Walnuts : 4/29/2017 6:39 pm : link

The veterans are returning to form and the rookies are coming along faster than I thought, we got 3 or 4 all stars here

These are Green's highlights.

add a veteran

Steve in South Jersey : 4/29/2017 6:41 pm : link

offer Blount on 1 year deal

And here's Harrington's.

I know a guy who trains Kade

The_Taxman : 4/29/2017 6:44 pm : link

It's between us, the Texans, and Chiefs.

damn, I wanted

SHO'NUFF : 4/29/2017 6:45 pm : link

Muhammed

I was really hoping for James Conner

Rico : 4/29/2017 6:47 pm : link

The Steelers grabbed him at the end of the 3rd round. His game seems just like Brandon Jacobs, so I'm disappointed he didn't fall to us. I wonder if we would have taken him in the 4th since we were thinking RB anyway?

Thanks, Taxman.

TC : 4/29/2017 6:50 pm : link

I hope he's tired of the Southwest! ;-)

Yeah, Muhammad would have been nice. Frankly, like him better than Gallman.

Smoke Mizzell is a spark plug

Dunedin81 : 4/29/2017 6:51 pm : link

I'd love to pick him up as a UDFA

The Gallman pick

Natek212 : 4/29/2017 6:58 pm : link

Makes it look like the Blount ship has sailed, unfortunately.

Vereen, Perkins, Draughn, and now Gallman. Not much more room.

draugn is not a guarantee for the roster

Hope they get Anthony Wales as a UDFA

gogiants : 4/29/2017 7:20 pm : link

Kid from Western Kentucky
1) had 2 seasons of 1000+ yards
2) averaged 6.8 yds/carry
3) averaged 2.08 TDs/game in 2016
4) averaged 0.91 TDs/game career
5) averaged over 4 rushing plays of 10+ yards/game in 2016
6) made 83% of third down attempts
7) made 83% of 3rd and 1-3 to go

I think Draughn and Darkwa are

Tim in Eternal Blue : 4/29/2017 7:30 pm : link

Camp fodder.

With Blount I think we have a very solid stable of RBs... Without him, on paper, we are bottom third of the league at the RB position. IMO

Any word

jtfuoco : 4/29/2017 7:53 pm : link

yet on Kade Harrington yet he seems he would be fun to watch to see if he could make practice squad

Dare Ogunbowale

RAIN : 4/29/2017 8:05 pm : link

and Corey Clement from U.Wisconsin are still out there. There are options.

Perkins, Galman, Vereen, and Draughn are a start. Liked what I saw from PP.

Liked what I saw from Draughn too, with a poor team.

Saved a lot of money by not signing Blount

xman : 4/29/2017 8:07 pm : link

now we can sign a DB named Morris Claiborne

Our RB corps are done. We won't be picking up anybody else

Jimmy Googs : 4/30/2017 7:43 am : link

so get on board...

With Perkins in his second year and Gallman as a rookie

Ira : 4/30/2017 7:47 am : link

we're a little better than last season at rb. I'm not sure what Blount has left. Sometimes older running backs fall off quickly.

Giants signed Shaun Draughn from the 49'ers . Isn't he the same age as Blount? 30?

hey

mdthedream : 4/30/2017 9:59 am : link

but he didn't score 18 tds and 1200yds.

Blount might be nice

aquidneck : 4/30/2017 10:06 am : link

But if they do add talent they're going to have to eliminate some corresponding bodies. There are 8 guys currently on the roster.

Not sure the talent level available with the undrafted guys is any better than what we already have.

I hope the Giants add more RB talent
