This fantasy football blurb on Yahoo about Shep says a lot

That's a pretty unfair write up of Shep who's been the best and toughest player on the field for the last 2 seasons. Also 16 catches for 207 yards through 2 games begs to differ with that "opinion".

That opinion is not a knock on Shepard at all. I posted only part of it -- my point was about the organizational philosophy.

The rest of the blurb is also very complimentary of Shepard. I think you're misconstruing what I was trying to say.

Taken out of context.

I actually just think of all players on the Giants offense Shep has been the one actually used properly. Im just pissed off in general as im sure we all are.

I'm not trying to knock Shepard, I'm trying to knock the conservative approach in every aspect at every level within this organization.

The quote was taken out of context, but mostly because I wasn't trying to make a point about Shepard's play. Here's the full blurb:

"Operating as the Giants' WR1 to begin the year, Shepard will enter Week 3 having turned 19 targets into 16/207/1 in one five-day period. Of course, both games were Giants losses, while big-dollar free agent addition Kenny Golladay was already visibly frustrated with Daniel Jones on Thursday evening. Shepard continuing to lead the Giants in targets nevertheless makes too much sense. He is the perfect conservative option for a conservative quarterback taking plays from a conservative offensive coordinator working for a conservative coach employed by a conservative general manager cashing checks from a conservative owner. Shepard will have WR2 juice for Week 3 against the horrid Falcons. "

???

Will see more looks and yards once he and Jones get more acclimated. He barely was in camp and missed the postseason.

Sheppard is a very solid NFL Player. Making very solid plays and helping the team without hurting them.

Sheppard is a pros, pro

All that being said

Solid NFL players don't win football games.

Wish I could edit the original post, since nobody is reading what I actually meant and said in subsequent posts.

This is NOT a dig on Shepard at all. This is a dig at the TOP TO BOTTOM over the top conservatism at EVERY level of the org.
