BJ Hill

Hill seems to be playing well lately. Not sure if that's a product of limited snaps and only using him to his abilities or if he is a possible replacement for Tomlinson.


Thoughts oh Hill?? We were all very excited about him after his first year but year two did not seem to progress, in fact he regressed.
Good coaching and

placing him in a position to succeed.
Hill is a guy whos game is based on power and technique  
Chris L. : 11/15/2020 9:04 pm : link
We are a power DL that gets a lot of push. This should play to his strengths. Some guys take a while to get the techniques and speed of the game down. Hopefully he is finally coming into his own. It would be big because we are one more good DE away from really getting a consistent pass rush.
He's been solid all season long

Today was the best game of the season.
The OP nailed it....  
chopperhatch : 11/15/2020 9:20 pm : link
he is looking very much like a replacement for Dalvin. Both play very similar games, but DT is up for a contract.

I was thinking this during the game.

Agreed. I'd like to resign Dalvin and Leonard, but I don't think it will be possible. I'd also like to resign Johnson.
Victim of numbers game

Completely different players. Dalvin is the best 0 tech on the team. He’s the best nose by far. Hill provides the best interior pass rush of any interior lineman. They are so far and away different it’s not even funny. They couldn’t be further apart in terms of what they do best.
Tomlinson should be re-signed

Let Williams walk if you can't sign both, then draft a DE.

+10
If they can afford to sign Graham  
Allen in CNJ : 11/16/2020 4:51 am : link
Gano, they can resign DT and LW.
Not all of the NY Giant Defensive Tackles  
LBH15 : 11/16/2020 8:37 am : link
are created equal. They actually play different positions along the D-line. Hill is not a replacement for Tomlinson.

With that said, there are important decisions to be made in the offseason with respect to this unit and who should be retained.
In a 3-4, Hill's a DE  
JonC : 11/16/2020 8:39 am : link
and with LW and Dexter in there, he's down the depth chart.

0, 2, 3 or 5. Versatility is the name of the game. We have 3-4 guys who can play multiple positions on the line. I prefer dex as a 5 he’s a big man and 2 gaps with ease
DE  
JonC : 11/16/2020 9:11 am : link
He's able to do more than just play NT or DT. His power, AA, and ability to play two gap allows them to move him around and be multiple. Same with LW.
