Yep. Switching between this game and watching Devin White of LSU. Nice sack by Allen.
I can't see how Allen will drop to 6  
Anakim : 1/1/2019 1:44 pm : link
I think he cemented himself as the third best player in this draft behind Bosa and Quinnen Williams, but hey, ya never know
Allen is my favorite player in this draft  
Rjanyg : 1/1/2019 1:57 pm : link
Hoping he will be there at pick #6. If not him then Ferrell is my second choice. NYG needs to find edge rushers.
This.....

White from LSU looks really good in the game vs UCF
1st time I've seen Allen.  
section125 : 1/1/2019 2:12 pm : link
First impression - he's fast and he looks slightly built - deceiving. Listed at 6'5" 260 which makes him the same as Strahan's last two years. Must be solid as a granite.
Yes  
WillVAB : 1/1/2019 2:14 pm : link
Allen already has two sacks. Just what the doctored ordered for the Giants in the pass rush department.

His run D has been a little suspect.

Apparently he weighed 205 when he came to Ky.
LSU-UCF

Guys are getting tossed left and right in the UCF and LSU game for personal fouls and targeting.

LSU has already lost two starters in the secondary and UCF has also lost one and had another warned.

LSU may be losing another just now. Yup just did.

Very chippy, physical game so far. Lots of late/hard hits.
Devin White is pretty impressive  
bigblue12 : 1/1/2019 2:30 pm : link
6 seems high for an off the ball LB though

UCF was shooting itself in the foot getting 15 yarders when they had LSU stopped early in the game.

Orgeron - LSU's coach is a loud mouth yelling about every hit and is likely firing his guys up way too much. UCF is a bit too chippy.

Yes, and no. Would he be an impact defender?? That's the question. Seems to always be around the ball
Where's McSorley expected to be drafted?  
adamg : 1/1/2019 2:41 pm : link
.
Allen and White stand out in both games  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 1/1/2019 2:49 pm : link
Allen's simply unblockable - they are lining him up everywhere and without constant doubles it's over.

White's closing speed is unreal. 6 is high for an ILB but ifm you trade down, he's an easy pick in the teens.
Anyone seeing  
GoDeep13 : 1/1/2019 2:55 pm : link
The Mississippi State game? Montez Sweat is a guy I like a lot in a potential trade down. 6’6 240 with superb athleticism and strength.

4th round or later is my guess. Not a top tier pro prospect at this point.

Allen looks legit. Hes worth that top pick. either way Giants will have a very good shot a a premier ER guy.

No one targets a player and then trades down to get him. You only trade down to gain picks and because the draft is so deep around the pick you are getting that you can’t miss getting good value.

Say that to Luke Kuechley.
I can see Allen making  
Dave on the UWS : 1/1/2019 3:57 pm : link
Vernon REAL expendable. I would be good with him at 6 ( don’t think he’ll be there though) White seems to have the athleticism inside we DON’T have. Not sure I would want him at 6 either.
Goods point about Kuechly  
Dave on the UWS : 1/1/2019 3:58 pm : link
didn’t think of him.
Vernon  
MookGiants : 1/1/2019 4:01 pm : link
shouldn't be on the team with or without Allen. He's average at best and always hurt and making a shit load of money. Keeping players like him around on a rebuilding team makes zero sense at all.

Guys like Allen are why you should want to lose games when you're eliminated from the playoffs. The meaningless wins against teams like the Bears backup qb are why we won't get a guy like Allen and that's annoying.

Vernon made Vernon expendable. Always hurt and mediocre. His first year he showed up. Since hes been a huge cap drain and nothing else. I see no way he's on the roster at that cap #.
UCF

Just cant hang with LSU.

Everyone said Kentucky couldn't put up points on offense to win......doing ok
Allen needs to be on  
section125 : 1/1/2019 4:04 pm : link
the field a little more.
Looking forward to seeing Haskins  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 1/1/2019 4:26 pm : link
in 30 plus minutes.
Benny Snell Jr  
Del Shofner : 1/1/2019 4:35 pm : link
is a very good RB, not that that's a position of need for us.

Like the way Snell runs. He is expected to go in the 2nd or 3rd round, according to Dan Brugler. Someone is going to get a good player, taking him.

Should be a good matchup as well

GiantGrit : 1/1/2019 5:22 pm : link
McSorley came back and played through a broken foot. Lots of respect for that performance.
Doubt Allen will be available  
jeff57 : 1/1/2019 5:39 pm : link
Jets or Raiders will take him.
