sucks.
He had a nice year  
Breeze_94 : 3/11/2024 4:09 pm : link
Last year. Shouldn’t be anything more than $4-5m apy
Decent stopgap  
Anakim : 3/11/2024 4:10 pm : link
But yeah, we need to go RB in the Draft
Modify your Saquon Jersey

Devin Singletary has averaged more yards per carry than Saquon every single year for the last 5 years
A bit of an overpay, but not too bad

Compensation update: Giants are giving former Texans RB Devin Singletary a 3-year, $16.5 million deal worth up to $19.5 million, per source.
3 year deal  
Amtoft : 3/11/2024 4:10 pm : link
haven't seen numbers yet
Solid signing assuming it's not much $.  
Strahan91 : 3/11/2024 4:11 pm : link
Good player who was impressive last year in Houston

Wasn’t he good last season?

yea lets see how he does behind our OLINE...

also how is he receiving?
3 year 16.5 million  
JoeyBigBlue : 3/11/2024 4:11 pm : link
Waiting on the guarantees
Can work with those numbers.  
Chris in Philly : 3/11/2024 4:11 pm : link
Especially when adding a guy in the draft.
I’m fine with it  
illmatic : 3/11/2024 4:11 pm : link
Productive, 26, shouldn’t cost a lot and him and Daboll know each other well.
I'm confused  
Tyrion : 3/11/2024 4:11 pm : link
Would people really have re-signed Saquon and McKinney and then had no money to do anything else?

This is a fine signing unless we're shelling out Gettleman money for him.
3 years? Yeesh  
Eric on Li : 3/11/2024 4:12 pm : link
If it’s anything more than 5m per there are gonna be a lot of singletary flip floppers.
I'm going to buy his jersey  
Mike from SI : 3/11/2024 4:12 pm : link
so that I can burn it or throw it out when he leaves, like the mature adults on BBI and the rest of the internet.
Called it

Houston’s OL  
Sammo85 : 3/11/2024 4:12 pm : link
was not good, that needs to be stated adamantly before everybody starts predicting a career worst season for him here.
I wonder if they will still be in the FA RB  
GiantTuff1 : 3/11/2024 4:12 pm : link
market after this...
We have to see the break down...  
Amtoft : 3/11/2024 4:13 pm : link
if the last year is like 8 mil with 1-2 guarantee it is a two year deal for 8 deal
we don't have to worry about moving on a QB in this draft.  
gpat1031 : 3/11/2024 4:13 pm : link
Cause we'll be drafting in the top 5 next season. You can bank on that.
5’7”, just over 200#. Give him number 20  
Spider56 : 3/11/2024 4:13 pm : link
Joe Morris was the same size, maybe a tad lighter.
He's 26 years old  
RCPhoenix : 3/11/2024 4:13 pm : link
And as best as I can tell has been healthy. The same cannot be said for Barkley.

Eric Gray has 20.
Don't understand the early hate for this  
gameday555 : 3/11/2024 4:14 pm : link
Singletary was perfectly fine last year and even with Barkley our offense was putrid. Invest in positions that matter. Do people need another 10 years of misery before they're willing to rip the band aid off and accept we some non-sexy roster upgrades?

I mean who cares about the years if the guarantees only make it a 1 or 2 year deal. If anything the years bring down the AAV so it will have a minimal cap hit.
Good hard nosed player  
TheBlueprintNC : 3/11/2024 4:14 pm : link
This will do us well

Go Terps : 3/11/2024 4:14 pm : link
The only major difference is the tread on the tire.

His entire contract is $10 Million less  
Rjanyg : 3/11/2024 4:14 pm : link
thank Saquon's Guarantees.

I would say this is a decent allocation and a good back up plan heading into the draft.



The definition of average.

Seems like he's stayed healthy, despite a consistent work load.  
BigBlueNH : 3/11/2024 4:15 pm : link
Don't underestimate that quality. Add a RB in Rd 4 or so, and our RB should be taking shape.
Maybe this signals  
Dang Man : 3/11/2024 4:15 pm : link
Running back by committee? He’s not a guy to carry the ball 20 times a game.

+1. I've been refreshing this site constantly this afternoon, mostly for the teenage reactions.
great news we just paid singletary what we could have paid barkley  
Eric on Li : 3/11/2024 4:15 pm : link
to stay for 2 more years last year + his tag amount last year.

anyone wish they could get a do-over yet and just get 3 years of barkley for 36.5-39.5m?
Another Buffalo Bills connection

Comparing the numbers  
Big Rick in FL : 3/11/2024 4:16 pm : link
Saquon
1137 touches
5283 scrimmage yards
4.6 yards per touch
32 TDs

Singletary
1063 touches
5213 scrimmage yards
4.9 yards per touch
24 TDs
I like it  
Greg from LI : 3/11/2024 4:16 pm : link
Solid player at a comparative bargain price.
This is a good signing.  
Tim in Eternal Blue : 3/11/2024 4:16 pm : link

And 7M less a year than Barkley. Singletary had a nice 2nd half of the season with the Texans behind a porous O-Line.
Don’t like this

His numbers are basically identical to Saquon over the last 5 years
Another  
AcidTest : 3/11/2024 4:17 pm : link
good signing. He's been a productive player and we definitely needed to add a veteran RB. But we still also need to add one in the draft.

Exactly! You are correct and good job pointing that out.
This has the feel of 2019 when they traded Odell  
csb : 3/11/2024 4:17 pm : link
and signed Golden Tate. I'm fine with the Giants not spending $13M on Saquon if you don't value the position, but then don't spend $6M on a JAG RB.

tread on the tire, 100 more receptions, and 23 more tds in fewer games played. but tds aren't that important are they?
