A few notes about this weekends mini camp

YANKEE28 : 5/11/2022 8:51 am
1. Even though its called a rookie camp, any NFL veteran that remains unsigned can participate if invited. Certainly fans remember Kelvin Benjamin at last years and last weekend the Ravens had 32 year old DT Marcell Dareus at theirs. It would be no surprise if a few vet CBs attend.

2. For the teams that held their camps last weekend, it seems most had around 60-65 players participating. We already know about the 11 picks and 14 UDFAs, so I would expect about 30 names we will hear Friday morning for players getting a tryout with the Giants.

3. Any player on the Giants roster that has not yet accrued an NFL season (active for at least 3 games) is eligible to participate this weekend. From the Giants current roster, these are the players I believe Daboll can invite:

1. QB Brian Lewerke
2. RB Antonio Williams
3. WR Austin Proehl
4. WR Travis Toivonen
5. OT Roy Mbaeteka
6. OT Devery Hamilton
7. RB Sandro Platzgummer

Thanks, Y28

and yes, I think a name to watch (assuming still unsigned) is CB Jimmy Smith.
Where does he find

Happy to be retired and grateful as I approach 6 years cancer free

Life is good and Eric has an incredible website for Giants fans.
We're lucky to have you here, Y28.

Your posts are always must-reads...but I still think you're really an A.I.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to hearing about Big Roy. I love a good story and his is a great one.

Toivonen is an interesting cat. No speed, but reportedly a good leaper and route runner. Big slot/possession-type guy. We sure have enough "smurfs," lol.

To hopefully see Roy out there.
Antonio Williams

Might be the most important player on the list
Thanks Y28,

Kevin King is the most interesting unsigned CB out there  
Eric on Li : 5/11/2022 9:52 am : link
he started a bunch of games for the packers but battled injuries. Last year they gave him a 1 year 6m deal to come back but he lost his job to their first round pick (stokes) and Rasul Douglas. He is long and has the physical skills to be a press man corner but has been inconsistent.

For the nyg he's the type of upside gamble that's probably worth it, he's still just 27 years old.
