Nate Ebner Appreciation Thread, etc.

Gotta think we've seen the last of Nate with his fan club being fired. But also, the "loss" of Getty and JJ will mostly likely have some impact on the other sacred cows, like Saquon, DJ and Engram (yes, I know Engram will be a FA).
I wouldn't be so sure of Barkley

...the Maras love him and think he is "beloved" by the fans.

He seems like a good guy, but it turns out the juice wasn't worth the squeeze.
I don't see how Barkley

exits this year.

He is owed a guaranteed $7.2M. Who is trading for that? and there is no cap benefit to cutting him.

So, for those who expect a Saquon exit, how?
Looking forward to the roster joining the 21st century.

We carried 2 FBs all season. 2. In 2021. And yes, they were special teams contributors. And the STs were routinely bad.

I expect him to be on the team this year, but is he up for an extension in the spring?
Also, he's been the featured back a lot on 1st and 2nd downs. That might change with a new coach
Nate Ebner will always have a job

as long as Joe Judge needs a woobie to help instill his "culture".

Nate Ebner has to be one of the strangest situations I have ever seen. Coach really did just waste 2 yrs of a roster spot for a personal friend that added nothing to the team.

I wouldn't say he's up for an extension this spring, but I would say his contract ends after the 2022 season.

So, either Barkley plays on the 2022 Giants and re-establishes his value as a lead back and key offensive contributor and is re-signed or extended by the Giants.,

Or he walks.

If I had to bet I'd say Barkley's last year with the Giants is 2022.
