Don't miss it. Dottino has a great recipe for Rumaki.
Lemieux is the question  
BillT : 7/21/2021 10:46 am : link
I know Hernandez hasn’t been great but he can play at an NFL average skill level. He has shown that. Gates did that at least last year and has some upside that Hernandez probably does not. But Lemieux is a question mark. He did some things well enough others not well enough. If he falters I think we could see Fulton at RG and Hernandez back at LG. That wouldn’t be terrible. At least there are options.
training camp can't get here soon enough

Thanks Klaatu :

So we're going to learn about the OL  
Bill in UT : 7/21/2021 1:51 pm : link
from Dottino interviewing 3 of the players? That's 18 minutes of my life I'm not gonna throw down the toilet.

So, don't watch. Go back to NFT's where you can update today's specials on your blackboard. Personally, the only thing I'm 'starved' for is any information, pre-camp, that has to do with the Giants, whether it comes from Dottino or anyone else.

More Diehl for you.

Saquon Barkley Injury Updates & Expectations For Giants Training Camp - ( New Window )
I'm not worrying about the OL until game 1  
SGMen : 7/21/2021 5:13 pm : link
I am confident this team will run block well and if Barkley is 99.99% game 1 I predict we run really well and win a good game.

Pass protection will take time and that is a concern. I really would love for us to start 5 - 0 as the schedule says we can if we play up to our talent and ability. IMHO.

If we struggle and lose close ones due to less than pass protect it hurts our chances of winning the division.

Run well. Stop the run. Don't turn it over. Get turnovers. Win the special teams battles. Get those early wins and let them snowball into a strong season.
I just dont see Lemieux  
Grizz99 : 7/22/2021 2:19 am : link
Right from the draft where I read that he only benched 24. Long armed Dez did 36 and weighs 40 more lbs.
I didn't see promise, power, polish or potential. I have a hunch his replacement is on the roster.
Oh yeah? Who is Lemieux's replacement?  
Jimmy Googs : 7/22/2021 10:07 am : link
Don't keep these hunches to yourself...
Kyle Murphy  
Grizz99 : 7/22/2021 1:46 pm : link
Just a hunch, but last year after the draft I felt that they were not going to go into the year with the center they had and predicted Gates or Slade would emerge.
It's just as likely they see something in Lemieux, but I sure don't and like last year I don't think they'll leave us dependent on a sub- standard player..
But we'll see and my post at least gave you a chance to flash some negativity at the world.



You're the one going negative. Saying our starting Left Guard  
Jimmy Googs : 7/22/2021 4:06 pm : link
Shane Lemieux shouldn't have even been drafted by the team and has no potential. And that he should be replaced by a backup undrafted free agent that has even played a snap based on your hunch.

You must see some John Hannah in him...
