I was reading Dan Duggan’s game preview for tonight’s matchup and he spent some time discussing Engram, his inability to stay on the field and his trade value. Missing tonight’s game means he has essentially missed 25% of games due to injury with the Giants. (11 out of 45)
Engram’s value is at its absolute lowest, but for a player with his physical attributes, there will always be a market for him. He’s signed through 2020 with a possible fifth year option. You’d think one of the 2019 contenders would look at him as an “Get us to the finish line” type of addition for 2020.
So, first question - Do you even think Evan Engram would generate a third round offer?
Second - If the Giants could grab a third round pick, let’s say in the 70 - 95 range, would you make the deal?
I like Engram as a player, but I don’t think he’s reliable and while he is a unique weapon, he doesn’t really contribute like a traditional NFL tight end. If the Giants could restock the third pick from the Williams trade, albeit much later than they would have picked naturally, I would be for that.
Because he can’t stay on the field.
1- who says they play the same position? 2) What has EE done to justify $$$ and long term spot? 3) He is a one trick pony and we need Some fucking work horses.
Bad bet. He has never played 16 games in his career. His highest production was as a rookie when he couldn't crack 800 yards.
you mean when he should have been picked?
:-)
He is a one dimensional player at a position that requires the player to block and catch passes. He gives great effort in trying to block, but he is terrible. He is strictly a pass catching TE. He isn't a WR no matter how often BBI wants to move him out. As a pass catching TE, he isn't that great. Too many drops; Too often injured; Never a match-nightmare despite BBI claiming such every year.
He will always be Evan "Not Ramczyk" Engram.
So we should listen to some offers. Maybe we get something that's very worthwhile. If nothing happens, and EE is healthy, there is still a good chance he produces at a pretty high rate...
Yes I do that.
Yeah he has big play potential. Not really what I need out of a TE. Need someone who can block and make clutch catches when called upon.
If we bring in a creative mind that excels at taking advantage of his players individual abilities, Engram can be one heck of a weapon. He needs the right coach, we don’t have it right now.
I remember the Giants saying they weren't going to entertain any offer. I would love to know who might have offered a 1st for him.
A. Why don't I remember that and...
B. Why the f-ck didn't we do it????????
He’s just not the type of guy I’d build an offense around. If someone offered a first the Giants were crazy not to jump on that.

in mind that there were reports that teams were offering a 1st rounder for him about a month ago.

"The #NYGiants heard from a team attempting to trade for 2017 first-round draft pick Evan Engram, according to sources. But ultimately, no matter what they were offered, the Giants told anyone who called that they had no interest in trading Engram." - @AdamSchefter

Getting rid of our defensive linemen time after time caused us to continually use draft picks on the same position. We have to stop that.

We've come a long way from rolling with Eli and whoever was next up at receiver.
If they really were offered a 1st for him and didn’t take it, then that’s just dumb.
Kaden Smith has been atrocious this game. He can't catch a cold.
