New York Giants Mini-Camp: Day One Tweets

Giants would end up with
#4
#22
#34
#65
#66
#69

through rd 3.

Would you do it?

with the podcast featuring Davis Webb's trainer was interesting to me. I just can't write off Webb as a serious pro QB prospect - franchise-type QB talent. Love to hear how hard he works and how diligent he is. I'm really rooting for him.

I'll be behind the Giants all the way, and if they decide to pick Saquon or another position player, as much as half of BBI would like to feel differently, I think their opinion of Webb might be what sways them to do so.

Unless we want Darnold or Rosen REALLY BAD
HELL YEA, I take this in a heartbeat
Get Barkley at 4
OL at 22
And build up depth on defense with 34, 65, 66, 69
Would be a home run

Odell Beckham Jr. will attend this 3-day mini-camp. Will be able to participate in warmups and walk-through but will not practice coming off ankle surgery.

Good news, and just another sign that Odell is a positive part of this team, not some guy who is a problem.

First off, the guy seems like a tireless worker, is the son of a coach, and has done nothing but follow Eli around and learn from him going on a year now.

Second, he has physical talent. He's not some 5th-7th round pick/UDFA. He's played against some top competition, and a 3rd round pick is not exactly nothing in terms of an investment.

It would have been nice to see him play last year, and the fact that he didnt was an organizational failure. However, he got sucked into some pretty deep, pretty awkward moments in the media having to answer all of the typical Eli questions when that disaster happened and he said and did all the right things.

I'm rooting for Webb to show Shurmur what he needs to see as far as raw, workable talent that can be molded over the next year. Having some level of confidence that a viable post-Eli option is already on the team would really spring this roster forward by allowing them to focus on Barkley/Chubb/Nelson and building the rest of the roster out from there.

One thing about Webb that I love is that he's taking this very seriously. It's a known and it's a good known. Hope the kid shows something!

It s two days before a draft they have spent hundreds of hours preparing for. Do you think it s reasonable to expect that a three day mini camp where Webb throws maybe 25 times is going to change their board

Gettlemen as much as said this mini camp would have no impact on the draft.

Pat Shurmur: We want to see Davis Webb go through his progressions, make the right reads, and make accurate throws. He�s just like everyone out there. I don�t think this is his �tryout� or a need for anxiety. #Giants

not sure what he could be thinking. Reese and Ross were adamant that there were no character concerns with him. This is also a guy that was the only o-lineman that would't attend oline dinners/gatherings/Christmas gift exchange,etc.

Janoris Jenkins promises nothing that happened last year will happen again.

Simple as that.

I'm fighting the temptation to post that beach photo of Eli holding his daughter's little red sand bucket.

Flowers is doing himself zero favors here. You can tell Shurmur isn't happy with his no-show.

Sounds like he and Odell are off to a good start, though.

he isnt going anywhere. He is under contract. The Giants arent trading him.. enough already.. why not ask some questions about his offensive schemes... how will he work with Mike Shula.. Run concepts.. etc etc..

He seems like a great leader.

I don't know - he's been pretty good at avoiding pass rushers. He might be just as good at avoiding media. :)

Maybe he meant flowers, not Flowers.

but I really don't understand what Flowers is thinking. New regime, fresh slate. Come in and prove you belong.

Where have all the Flowers gone?
Long time coming
We all knew this Keep it real already

...but are we definitely a 3-4 base unit now (realizing that we'll play a ton of hybrid stuff)?

is a sulky sourpuss. as much as beckham jr and Collins were terrific picks, flowers has been a complete waste of space, which is sad because he takes up a LOT of space.

Very strange take. Generally, when your best player shows up to an OTA its a good thing. Unless your comment is just a bit of sarcasm.

I would have said apple, not flowers.

He needs to be in order to learn the new offense.
