So are you saying they should have nixed the trade offer from Chicago that got them an extra first round selection next year and stayed where they were and selected the guard????? Really???

Slater was the OL I wanted, but he was gone. I was a Kwity Paye man at that spot, but again, lets wait and see.


Yes. And Slater is playing T, btw.

But he can also play G and C.

Giants will go into next year with a 5th year RB, 4th year QB, and vet pass catchers. Getting the OL settled, and the development done this year would have been a great investment. Yes, getting 2 high pedigree lineman in place would have been worth not doing the trade.



Of course we needed Toney. I mean, we only signed Golladay, Rudolph, and Ross in free agency. So we definitely needed more receivers...

So they shouldn't have drafted Toney because they signed John Ross to a 1 year prove it deal and a 31 year old TE Rudolph to a 2 year deal? Yes Golladay is the #1 WR but you think it's wise to bet on John Ross stepping up and becoming a playmaking #2 WR? The Giants WR Corps was the worst in the NFL going into the offseason so adding Toney to the others was hardly a waste of resources.

Let's just say the Giants did take Slater instead of trading down. What would you do then if Jones doesn't prove himself this season? Now you're left without a huge asset to move up to get his replacement especially if Thomas proves himself as a solid LT.
Herbert made it moot  
santacruzom : 9/12/2021 3:59 pm : link
By converting on 3rd and 7, but I don't get why more teams don't call time outs when on defense in that situation. Your offense has a lot more control over the clock... I feel it's better to have few TO's remaining when you're on offense than when on D.

Right and they lost Kerrigan who is a tremendous guy to have come in and spell. I think Sweat and Young are probably overrated.

I am okay with not spending a lot of draft capital on the OL if you are taking care of those needs via free agency.... with qualify free agents.

Zeke's Alibi : 9/12/2021 4:03 pm : link
and a TD and I thought he played fairly well. Not the HOF worthy performance the fucking announcers wanted to portray it as, but well.

I think the front 7 from WFT without Kerrigan is now massively overrated.

AcidTest : 9/12/2021 4:03 pm : link
would have taken the trade down with the Bears instead of Slater. I'm just not sure about taking Toney at #20. In any event, my sense was the Giants would have taken AVT if they had stayed at #11.

DG hasn't a clue how to build a line despite all his bluster. And to be honest I'm a little skeptical of Joe Judge if he thought a 5th rounder was a starting caliber RT.

We paid KG to be the #1 WR. So that gave us KG, Shep and Slayton. Toss in EE and Rudolph, plus the return of SB, and those are a good basket of weapons.

And since Slater can play EVERY position on the OL, his value is exceedingly > than Toney's.

If Jones is poor this year, we'll very likely get a high pick anyway. True?

Drafting skill positions early without a line never works. Odell went 12 overall and is probably twice the player as KT yet Giants won 0 playoff games with Odell. This year will look and feel a lot like 2014.
