if we let Barkley walk at the end of his contract

markky : 11/23/2021 6:39 am
is his first move a jump step? does he run three steps and stop? after 7 steps and fall down?

on a serious note, the guy is not a complete football player. I'd shop him now so we can at least get something back. no way i sign him to a second contract.
Do we get money back if we cut him now

dead serious. he stinks. I'd rather have Gallman and booker and i don't give a shit what anyone of you know it all says Gallman was better and so is booker. Freeman was too . At least he blocks a blitzing linebacker.
The only way we let Barkley walk...

is if we have a new GM. Gettleman will not make that move.

I also liked Gallman. Right mow, if we had Booker, Gallman and Freeman... we would be fine at RB.
As I think about my last post...

we really did a nice job of bringing in decent backup RBs. They did the job (sans Stewart).

So fire gettle too. That is long overdue. A 2x SB MVP gets benched after week 2 -- and not playing like a 3int game or something -- but Dave Gettleman gets to ride off into the sunset? [i] Why?[/i} that is the giants way?
It's painful to recall the following

Gettleman drafted Barley the year that he could have drafted Josh Allen (qb) on the 1st round and Nich Chubb on the 2nd round. Instead, he drafted Barkley and Will Hernandez.

Easy to say in hindsight. We could have had Mahomes or Watt too. If you want to be critical say we should not have picked a RB with the second overall pick. Allen had the worst completion percentage of the big name QBs and against inferior competition at Wyoming. We likely would not have selected him either. Sometimes the lightbulb goes on for guys late.

I was all for the Barkley pick at the time but i feel he has played not to get hurt since the year before he actually got hurt b
I lol’d

Let’s face it, Saquon Barkley is one of the biggest busts of all time. He’s all sizzle no steak. I thought he had a few nice runs then realized it was Booker. They need to move on as soon as possible. He is a net negative to the offense.

For you, this is hindsight. For me, it was what I wanted the Giants to do in 2018.
IF?
