Anyone else think Taylor and Webb are going to be running for their lives Thursday? The OL depth is going to be a problem all preseason IMO.

Just preseason?
Nobody has a good 2nd string OL and you certainly cant expect quality there.
LT Thomas
LG Lemieux
C Feliciano
RG Glowinski
RT Neal (growing pains, but should be adequate in pass pro and well above average in run game in year 1)
Ezeudu
Garcia
While Cunningham, Gono and McKeathan are injured, I am not sure they are of a greater caliber than whatever their replacements will end up being. This is generally the state of affairs in the NFL for 8th-10th linemen on a roster.
What I am getting from this, is since they will be playing behind the 2nd stringers and our depth is suspect he is worried about them getting pummeled on Thursday night.
Hopefully Daniel starts to at least begin showing some God damn development finally

What teams in the NFL have great OL depth???? Most teams cant fill out 5 solid starters and we are talking about quality depth??? You want a solid line, here is rule #1 through 10 - keep your starters healthy. Cause when even one guy goes down, that can bring the whole thing down.
My snarky remark was in the context of the O-Line… and that “depth” would not necessarily be just a pre-season issue.
Definitely don’t think the starting O-Line is bad. I’ve said before that I feel a lot better about our O-Line than what we’ve trotted out there for the past decade. But I think Schoen/Daboll need to do more work on depth in the 2023 off-season.
@Dan_Salomone
Kafka said his background as a QB helps him calling plays. His first priority is to get it in fast and clear to the QB. He admits sometimes he gets too amped up.
@giantswfan
#Giants Kafka - jones doing "a phenomenal job" of working with this offense
@Dan_Salomone
Kafka said they’re “right on schedule” with installing the offense.
@Dan_Salomone
Kafka said Wink’s defense has been a good challenge for the offense. “It’s part of competing.”

#Giants Kafka on OL - priority is set depth and width of the pocket...did well overall at the scrimmage
..there were some communication issues
@Dan_Salomone
Wink Martindale: “I’m excited. I’m happy where we are.” They’ll find out who’s the “smartest, toughest and most competitive” over the three preseason games in terms of evaluating the roster.

Dan Salomone
@Dan_Salomone
Wink said it’s fun having players like Julian Love to move around. He’s a “valuable piece.”
@Dan_Salomone
Wink said Kayvon came in and went to work. “That’s what has impressed me.” He’s excited to see where this road takes the rookie.

#Giants Wink - Thibodeaux impressed with how he has xome to work..very smart.. keep working on techniques..he is never afraid to repeat drills
Dan Salomone
@Dan_Salomone
Wink said he’s told the inside linebackers that it’s an “open competition. … They’ve accepted the challenge.” Wink said he’s tough on that position having coached it for so long.

I'm not sure I understand your response. Are you saying Davis Webb is going to start this season behind our starting offensive line which you think is crap?

I expect them to do that. However, I think they're anticipating Gates making it back (if not this year, then certainly next year), as well as McKethan, and those two ought to help.
Still, I'm of the mind that you should draft OL's every year, not necessarily with premium picks, but with mid-to-late rounders worth developing. Keep that pipeline flowing. I'd love to see them develop the big Nigerian kid, too.
@Dan_Salomone
Wink said it’s not written in stone that a safety will continue to relay the calls on the field. It could be week to week.
Dan Salomone
@Dan_Salomone
Wink said Darnay Holmes been productive first and foremost and that he wants to go against the best in practice. He calls him “Dirty 30.” He loves how tough he is and embraces the competition.

#Giants McGaughey - brown is not only a special teams player...high ceiling and athletic as a LB too...is on his way to reaching his potential
Dan Salomone
@Dan_Salomone
McGaughey said Cam Brown has a high ceiling. “He’s on his way” and not just on special teams. He didn’t want to speak for Wink, but he’s sure there’s a good role for him on defense.

Daniel Jones started the 11 on11s with the 1st team offense, but Tyrod Taylor just took a snap with the 1st string O for the first time that I’ve seen this camp. Daboll appeared to be conferring with Jones. Then Jones came back and replaced Taylor for the next play #Giants
Dan Duggan

@DDuggan21
Tyrod Taylor just replaced Daniel Jones with the starting offense for one play 👀.
Hard to tell why Jones got the hook, but there was a busted play on the previous snap and Daboll didn’t seem happy. Jones back in after one play.
@JustinPenik
Kayvon Thibodeaux would’ve had 2 sacks during the first few plays of team periods today.

Really hard not to get excited about him.

We had a MAJOR fight. Started with Jon Feliciano and Tae Crowder. Cam Brown dragged Feliciano out of the scrum and OL coach Bobby Johnson pushed Brown. Then Feliciano punched Brown in the head. Never seen a coach do that to a player.

Saquon Barkley lowered his shoulder into Aaron Robinson during thud tempo, and the defense did NOT like it, especially LB Tae Crowder:
Giants center Jon Feliciano then grabbed LB Crowder’s head three plays later, pulled it down and tried to knee him in the face, WWE style

Neither are ellipses, but here we are...
Agreed- sort of.. It is far easier to play "tough" when you know the defense isn't coming to lay serious wood on you and when you know those guys want to avoid hurting you at all costs. I will be happy when I actually see it against another teams defense.
