Great. This is where the leadership was missing the most the last few years, the OL. Can�t even imagine Pugh or Richburg doing this with one of their teammates, both lacked leadership badly. Good riddance and welcome aboard Nate, happy to have you.

Pat Shurmur says he knows Damon Harrison isn�t here, why he isn�t here, and he�ll leave it at that. Says Snacks had been here previously. #Giants

Shurmur: Flowers looked good today. I wasn�t all that stressed out he wasn�t here. Glad he was here today. It�s a fresh start for him, like Eli Apple. #Giants

that Greco has apparently surpassed Jerry on the depth chart.

Pat Shurmur on Eli Apple: "I�m sure glad I truly believe in a clean slate. He�s been nothing but professional, he�s been out here competing, he�s been one of the guys that�s been here almost every single day. I haven�t seen anything that somebody might have thought I heard.''

He sounds like White Goodman. It's just me, I'm just White. W H I T....E

He hasn't seen anything that was rumored about him.

Lauletta and Barkley shoeing up bums Eli and OBJ with their work ethic and leadership. Wtf is Jawill? I don't care pencil him in the starting lineup!

"The Giants will have nine more voluntary practices, and Flowers, a former first-round pick, will compete against second-year pro Eli Apple and undrafted rookie Tyler Howell."

If Eli Apple wins the RT job something is wrong.

Eli Apple says he was embarrassed by the way things unfolded last year. Took a lot of the blame. Step in right direction . #giants

in more ways than one. DG looks for more than measurables in players obviously. Thats very refreshing after the other clowns. MO

Eli Apple didn�t pawn the blame off for last year�s disaster on anybody else. Took it on his shoulders. Said he needs to do better in a lot of ways. Step in right direction.

says had got faster. Bet if he ran a forty nothing has changed

Sounds like they're off to a good start.

When I read stuff like this from you, it just keeps reminding me how far up Eli�s ass you really are. In fact, I can barely tell where he leaves off

lol.

But trust me - the feeling is mutual on your Eli bashing agenda you have had for nearly a year. No matter the thread, no reason or rhyme - its JimmyGoogs and Eli Bashing time!!!

get lost clown. My post was a joke from a thread that had to be deleted on how bad the poster was in it.

Nothing about Eli do you do in a joking manner...

I told Nate Solder that his answer about Ereck Flowers will surprise people who think Flowers is a lost cause. "Well, you know, we hear those things too but I didn�t have any premonitions of the way it was going to go," Solder said. "I�m so thankful of the way he�s handled it."

Motivated players tend to be better than established players. Lets hope Flowers has seen the light.

Really? You can get hurt playing football? Gosh...I never knew that. Does it happen very often?

Oh well...I just hope they'd shared their candy with their teammates.

just seems like the man. Great addition.

If Erik Flowers takes to Big Nate's tutelage and Eli Apple does a 180 from last year...that would go a long way to clearing up some of the biggest question marks on this roster.

Is Solder generally psychic?

tend to forget that at 22 years old out in the real world things looked F-ted up as hell. Glad the two young men are willing to listen and get focused on their jobs.

job out-right and forced Wheeler into a swing tackle role. Much needed depth on this line.
