not vouching for the information, just reporting what she said. It could easily be misdirection. She did say that she didn't include Parsons because both are PSU grads.
over the OBJ trade, I highly doubt anyone who’s really in the inner circle is giving her any legit info.
I generally suspect reporters gather intel for these type of stories from scouts around the league who can share who other teams have been watching, agents, and former players who may hear stuff second hand
if he is not a locker room cancer, and this defense is really scary..
He is versatile, he can play inside, he can play outside, he can cover, he can rush the passer, he can stop the run, he is a 3 down LB..
Defense becomes even more versatile..
So multiple. True amoeba defense. Can he refine LB skills? Was my day 1 favorite player for the Giants in this draft, but reports of behavior and lack of ability to play the position turned me off. Comparisons to Anthony Barr with more explosion has me drooling of a THICK, long, hard hitting defense that has a carnivorous mentality. Would be interesting if deapitie the poo pooers he is the pick. Guy has a Ray Lewis mindset.
top row. I don’t think there’s any surprises here. I think most of us could have come up with these names on our own. The one surprise however I see is Ojulari that high and also no mention of Paye. I think there’s lots of smoke now.
the draft fell like this or something close to it, I can definitely see why the Giants would consider Parsons at #11.
Jags: T. Lawrence
Jets: Z. Wilson
49ers: J. Fields
Atl: K. Pitts
Cinc: P. Sewell
Miami: J. Chase
Det. D. Smith
Car. R. Slater
Den: T. Lance
Dal: P. Surtain

Interesting that Kwity Paye is not on her list.
Again, and I was chastised by stoned ass Milton, but the only thing being reported is that Parsons was involved in having in SOME way. Apparently according to Milton, us fans have no right for requesting elaboration. Despite my not asking for that, I find it more than just a bit telling that Parsons did something so egregious but no media will leak that info.
His agent either has very deep pockets, or something is fishy.
but why do I think the list is probably upside down?
Well, I’d rather have Waddle than Surtain but otherwise I agree with you (on my list there’s no Slater or ojulari unless we’re picking them in the twenties)
if everyone assumes it’s misdirection? In this day and age are opposing teams really changing what they do because Kim Jones listed names of players?
I think it's just a general philosophy of misinformation that goes out to all media. It's all about the clickbait. Half the time the media is in on it, I think. I could see a beat reporter going to a team official and saying just give me a bunch of names so that I'm not the one making this shit up. As long as it comes from a legit source and not a ouija board, it's not considered unethical.
So good for Kim, I'm sure this got her plenty of clicks. A week from now she'll have another list for us.
Nice strawman thread for the media-is-bad oldheads to feel good about. We still angry she pushed the unqualified gm to account for his bad decisions? Or that she kept talking to the best player this team has had in the last 30 years after he was traded?
"she's not credible"
"she's an idiot"
"she's not plugged in"
she's literally doing her job and we end up with threads on threads on threads of you clowns telling on yourselves. what the fuck?
I guess that’s my point, and why I don’t think it’s “misdirection”. Unless GMs are getting duped that the only misdirection that’s happening are to BBIers and their mocks.

There was a report of him hazing right? And some pretty intense stuff no? There's always a few guys like that in football lockerrooms and they make things way worse. When it gets to that point it's certainly not isolated behavior. Can he grow up? Possibly, but it's against him being a first round draft pick. I'd rather have the LT's of the world.
That being said Parsons is a solid fit for the defense as its currently constructed and what Graham wants to do and I trust Judge in this aspect, especially since we've purged the locker room at this point. But a lot like the Deandre Baker pick, I think it sends the wrong message.
As mentioned on @NFLTotalAccess, I confirmed today that these 6 are AMONG the players the #NYG are considering w/the 11th overall pick:
Azeez Ojulari, GA, edge
Micah Parstons, PSU, LB
Kwity Paye, Mich, edge
Rashawn Slater, NU, T
Patrick Surtain, Ala, CB
Jaylen Waddle, Ala, WR

I should say only 1 was missing. I realize this must have been from total access and not the tweet

Thanks. Paye wasn't listed in the OP comment. That threw me off and I didn't see her tweet.
RE: RE: RE: I don't know why anybody would feed a reporter names
"she's not credible"

she's literally doing her job
Which is to generate clicks, not pass along useful information. It's the clicks that pay her salary, not the value of what she has to say. So you're right, she's not an idiot. But she's also not credible, nor plugged in. My bad for being the one who called her an idiot, I just don't like her the way some here don't like Ranaan or Lombardo or Schwartz.
He is versatile, he can play inside, he can play outside, he can cover, he can rush the passer, he can stop the run, he is a 3 down LB..
Defense becomes even more versatile..
She said that the Giants are interested in Smith, but implied that they think he'll be gone by #11.
One word: misdirection.

+1
No surprise that Kim Jones would put a Penn State LB at the top of her list.

While I agree with that, it would be something new for this franchise which would be welcomed with open arms.
By the way, did you see that clip of Pioli talking about Matt Light? Lol.
I generally suspect reporters gather intel for these type of stories from scouts around the league who can share who other teams have been watching, agents, and former players who may hear stuff second hand
I concur. I trust Rico until he says differently. Kim Jones is known for Penn State bias, so it makes sense for her to put Parsons 1st.

So multiple. True amoeba defense. Can he refine LB skills? Was my day 1 favorite player for the Giants in this draft, but reports of behavior and lack of ability to play the position turned me off. Comparisons to Anthony Barr with more explosion has me drooling of a THICK, long, hard hitting defense that has a carnivorous mentality. Would be interesting if deapitie the poo pooers he is the pick. Guy has a Ray Lewis mindset.
