#Giants WR coach @CoachTykeT3
: If you lined up our whole team at the goal line for a race, Darius Slayton @Young_Slay2
would probably win 10 out of 10 times
Hoping so, but the adage...

"talk is cheap" keeps ringing in the back of my mind.
Does that mean

Slayton is returning kicks? Or just on the kick return and kick coverage teams?

If Slayton can be a true threat....  
GiantBlue : 9/20/2019 11:09 am : link
That would open so much for Barkley...and when Tate comes back....his downfield blocking will add an even better dimension.

If only the Defense

Knock on Slayton was hands and route running. I think both will improve with time.
A couple of reports  
cjac : 9/20/2019 11:16 am : link
that Fowler is a go

at practice in full gear
Jones and Barkley youngest RB/QB duo

Carter truly looked good getting off the bus, but there was much less to like about his game than Slayton. Slayton has actual ability.
When you mentioned Carter...it also brought up bad memories

about Rocky Thompson back in the 60's/70's and Thomas Lewis....our first round reach/bust out of Indiana.

I've been a fan since 1980.....so not since then.

Maybe Simms/Eddie Hicks from 1980 LOL!!!!!!
If Slayton pulls his hamstring again, he is headed for injured list.

At this point, Giants WRs need to be gamers.

Where is Alonzo Russell now?

@DDuggan21

Cody Latimer out with a concussion.
Bennie Fowler questionable
Darius Slayton is cleared to play
Slayton was turning heads at camp before injury  
NY-Fan : 9/20/2019 12:39 pm : link
He has more ability than just speed.
Rocky Thompson back back in the day...  
BCD : 9/20/2019 12:42 pm : link
could out run the whole team backward....and most know," the rest of that story".
I'm really hoping Slayton  
cjac : 9/20/2019 12:42 pm : link
can be the deep threat to keep those safeties back

he could open things up

all the wr problems is a hell of a way for #8 to begin his career. he  
plato : 9/20/2019 1:26 pm : link
does have what could be the most productive running attack in Giant history, although only time will tell about that. but i cannot remember how impressive and exciting a giant running attack, blocking and a superb running back, we have had since the promise of Tucker Fredrickson which was broken and the trade which brought a super running back, whose name escapes me, i think from the ?Browns in the 70’s. i am discounting Gifford, and Webster for reasons I would be tired of typing.

So Sunday Brown has a chance to begin and play and not carry the offense by himself, because of his rb options. As for the wr’s and “D”, time for coaches and everyone on the field to step up.

Lets see how effective they are once the Giants start posessing the ball for more than 30 minutes per game with DJ.

The Bucs offense is mediocre, the last talented offense we've faced...if the Giants can't get it going against this group...

Huh? Slayton isn't a gamer because he has a hamstring injury? Ok.

Alonzo Russell "the gamer" is sitting at home on his couch. Maybe you two can meet up and watch the game together.

I dunno. Mike Evans and Chris Godwin are both great wideouts. OJ Howard is a good TE. The other TE, Cameron Brate, has burned us in the past.

Peyton Barber is nothing special at RB but he had a career game (106 yards) against the Giants last year.

They've got plenty of talent. And our defense is shit.

The bucs were a consensus top projected offense almost universally. they are going to throw a ton this year and rack up yards and points. kind of an odd comment.

That's nice, their offensive line sucks and Winston is a jag..but good luck to them.

Winston is 23rd in attempts, but 4th in hurries and 1st in QB hits, Bucs oline ranks 27th in sack% at 10%.(Eli is 3rd in attempts, but only 13th in hurries and 17th in hits, Giants oline ranks 6th in sack% at 3.5%)...bucs can go throw a ton and get Winston killed....I guess. If you can't protect your quarterback you aren't going to throw the ball a ton and "rack up yards and points".

They'll hang 30 on this defense. It's not like they need to be world-beaters.
They certainly might  
BSIMatt : 9/20/2019 3:43 pm : link
but Dallas and Buffalo were better offenses, with better lines and better quarterbacks...so..hopefully we will see some improvement.
I'm just going to hope that all WRs play up to their potential  
SteelGiant : 9/20/2019 3:45 pm : link
this year.

Cause if they do, the WR starters should be Tate,Slayton, and Shep and that is what we will get in Week 5.
