how short camp (the length of each practice as well as the total number of days) is these days compared to the Albany days.
Keep this in mind.... we are six days away from the first preseason game (and there are only three preseason games). And yet the team has only practiced in pads TWICE.
Seems like Andre Miller has gotten a few positive mentions, though.
Maybe it's just me, but a former WR in college may very well be the teams #2 TE/h-back come Week 1.
Ricky Seals Jones being absent is hurting his stock. Akins is nothing to write home about. Allen is intriguing due to his size. I haven't heard much in regards to Jeremiah Hall.

And people wonder why there are so many missed tackles. Even with padded practices they aren't allowed to actually tackle. So, how do you reinforce wrapping up and bringing a ball carrier to the ground?

The #Giants first-team offense moved the ball with two long, strange drives. But it was not pretty … or even legit … with no sacks and some generous accounting. Daniel Jones went 12-of-22 passing with a TD pass to TE Andre Miller on the final play.
Again, some ups and down.
I don’t know how you make any judgements about the team after that
I was at FanFest. They were playing slightly faster than a walkthrough for most of the night. First touch and the player was down, obviously no real “sacks.” Kayvon looked good but the main point is I wouldn’t say Jones had a bad night when it looked nothing like game action.
FanFest was fun. Not sure if it’s the new regime or what, but the Giants have put on some fun events lately.
Difference between flag football and tackle football.
Keep this in mind.... we are six days away from the first preseason game (and there are only three preseason games). And yet the team has only practiced in pads TWICE.
How can it not be? There comes a point where the fear of injuries is a bigger problem than actual execution.
Maybe it's just me, but a former WR in college may very well be the teams #2 TE/h-back come Week 1.
Ricky Seals Jones being absent is hurting his stock. Akins is nothing to write home about. Allen is intriguing due to his size. I haven't heard much in regards to Jeremiah Hall.

Fifth-round pick Marcus McKethan, playing right tackle with the 2nd-team offense, just went down and is hurt. The cart is coming out. Got bull-rushed, maybe by Elerson Smith.
Sounds like Wink is blitzing every play - which is nutso.

Tyrod Taylor 5-yard TD pass to Richie James. James came across formation in motion for a play-action and then found himself wide open for the score.
Are we surprised?
@GiantInsider
Wink’s D very active, blitzing from all over the place. Show 6, drop two and Love comes, so creative, tough to prepare for.

What's impressive about Corbin's running style is his ability to string moves together while moving downfield.

Wearing that 21, Yusuf Corker looks the part and just made a play on a tipped ball for the INT. I think he’s going to make the #Giants

Darren Evans broke up a pass which I think Yusuf Corker came up with once the ball was volleyed into the air. #giants

Tyrod Taylor hits Austin Proehl for what looks like a TD but Michael Jacquet punches it out at the 1 to save the TD and Jarrod Wilson scoops it up for the takeaway. Great play by Jacquet. Awful play by Proehl. Can't lose the ball at the 1!

@JordanRaanan
Kayvon Thibodeaux drew a hold and was in the backfield consistently during Friday’s Fan Fest scrimmage. Has been doing that regularly past few practices. Rookie is a problem with his pass rush arsenal and first step.
“He’s tough to block,” coach Brian Daboll said of No. 5 pick.

Brian Daboll says 2x that the #Giants need to improve their “conditioning.” Says that was part of why they forced such long drives tonight. Spring and start of camp haven’t been especially grueling. Interesting to watch how workload picks up.

Yep! Absolutely!
I would trade Slayton straight up for Jenkins.

The #Giants first-team offense moved the ball with two long, strange drives. But it was not pretty … or even legit … with no sacks and some generous accounting. Daniel Jones went 12-of-22 passing with a TD pass to TE Andre Miller on the final play.
Again, some ups and down.
FanFest was fun. Not sure if it’s the new regime or what, but the Giants have put on some fun events lately.
First thing tomorrow morning.
He just e-mailed me and said Thibodeaux looks legit.
He was eating up all blockers, even Thomas.
I was hoping Ezeudu would be groomed to play center this year, but if McKethan is lost, Ezeudu will be needed for Guard duty.

McKethan is really hurt bad, this just sucks.

Ezeudu can still get time at center, but with those feet I would hope he stays at guard with some tackle time.
I was getting some front-runner vibes from him that I hope are wrong because damn, the sky's the limit.

Seems they’re grooming Ezeudu as a G/T and Lemieux as an option at C.
When asked about it, Lemieux came off that he was trying to be a good soldier but is basically an experiment at Center...
