in this upcoming season - other than Thibs and Neal?
My guess is Josh Ezeudu and Daniel Bellinger will both start at some point this season. Ezeudu has tackle feet, is strong and tough. People say he needs to learn how to use his hands better, but he's smart and willing to learn so he should be able to make progress in that area. Bellinger is strong and an effective blocker. He has the athletic ability and the hands to be a good receiving te. He wasn't used enough that way in San Diego State, but I think he'll blossom as a receiving tight end under the Giants coaching staff.
I'd love to hear more bbi opinions on this.
Evan Neal
Daniel Bellinger
Josh Ezeudu
Micah McFadden
Rookies who will start due to injuries/Ineffective play
Cor'Dale Flott
Dane Belton
I would add Robinson to the list as he will play a significant role but won't technically start.
I was not very familiar with McFadden prior to him being selected but the more I see and read about him the more excited I get. I think McFadden will be starting next to Martinez by midseason. It wouldn't surprise me if he beats out Crowder for the starting job.

Exactly what I was going to list. I would put Beavers in for next year as a starter. The two inside linebackers will be McFadden and Beavers for next year.
I have a feeling that he surprises.
Not flott only because he’s the slot.

Flott the Slot. Nice ring to it

Beavers reminds me of Kawika Mitchell.
On O, I think Daboll will incorporate a lot of different packages for Robinson, he may not start but will play a significant role. Ezudo should start at some point. Bellinger will play a significant role but may not be classified as a starter. I dont see McKethan starting at any point but he may make the team as a swing player with his size. He may be the guy that ends up on the PS though.
