Engram sticks up for D.Jones (re Baker Mayfield comments)

FranknWeezer : 8/20/2019 3:17 pm
Attaboy, EE!

Quote:
Giants tight end Evan Engram didnt mince words to describe Browns quarterback Baker Mayfields criticism of rookie Daniel Jones.

Its kind of dumb, Engram told NJ Advance Media of Mayfields comments on Tuesday.

Theres two types of people in this world," Engram said. "Theres people who run their mouths and cry for attention and theres people who put their head down, get to work and get stuff done. Thats everything Daniels been doing.

He should take his own advice

It's well thought out.

Give me a break. He's defending his rookie teammate who did nothing to deserve all this crap. Engram has said just about all the right things this offseason and has seemingly taken well to a leadership role.

Their words and actions since leaving have also crystallized the picture of why DG jettisoned them. So I'd like to thank them all....for being themselves.
Good for Engram

I would not be taking the high road, fuck him, Odell the fucking baby, and fuck that jackass organization and coach. I am all for the team sticking up for one another, anyone that has a problem with that, get a clue.
I know DJ would never say  
eli4life : 8/20/2019 4:12 pm : link
But I just wish he would of said he would have more wins in college if he left his bad team and ran off to a stacked team like baker did

Is this actually a slam against Engram??

You really are a miserable fuck

I had a the same reaction. It's not a knock on Engram. He has to defend his teammate.

But isn't he categorizing himself into that group that talks?

The principle and answer are contradictory.

Nevermind... Re-read it again. Over reaction on my part!

No, there's nothing wrong with coming to bat for your teammate who has done nothing but take heaps of fucking shit and criticism since the night he was drafted.

How would you even know what "well thought out" means? The entire concept of thought seems lost on you.
I like the attitude of this team so far

Seems to be a good core of men on the squad

What a stupid comment.
I like Evan even more now.

I've been kinda down on Evan on-field.  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/20/2019 6:25 pm : link
But this was a great job by him. He seems like a good guy and a good teammate. Hope he tears it up this year. Looking forward to him hopefully being our long term answer at TE for the years when Jones is the starter.
These guys are young  
joeinpa : 8/20/2019 7:52 pm : link
Competitive athletes, nothing wrong with voicing what you really believe once in awhile.
Why is Mayfield worrying about Jones ?  
Manny in CA : 8/20/2019 11:59 pm : link

He's NOTHING to him, just some rookie on ANOTHER team.

Mayfield just can't stay out of other people's business (just like he can't stay out of his team-mates contracts).

He's still a young man, imagine what a miserable so-and-so he'll be when he "grows up".

I hope Pitt Balt and Cincy have great defenses this year. That's all.

This. Stay healthy Evan and give us an 80/1000/8 season on your way to the top of the NFL's receiving TEs.

He's got the ability, methinks.

One of Joness teammates needed to tell Baker to shut up. Admittedly surprised it was Engram, but glad he did. New leadership emerging on this team.

I think what EE is saying more about comradery then talking trash. He knows DJ will be his QB pretty soon and he's showing him he has his back. Nothing wrong with this, IMO.

I'm glad Engram said what he said. Lawrence and Gallman, too.  
Klaatu : 8/21/2019 9:35 am : link
But what pisses me off is that they had to say anything at all. Unfortunately, our beat writers act more like teenage "gossip girls" than actual sports reporters. Hey, did you hear what Suzie said about Sally?
It was a savvy statement by Engram...  
Dan in the Springs : 8/21/2019 9:48 am : link
can be viewed as a statement of support of Jones alone, but one can clearly see a veiled criticism of Baker as well.

Good job EE.

Very good point. Wonder if Hanlon helped him craft that response, b/c it was well-said for sure.
