License plate guy implies Giants out on OBJ

Take it for what it’s worth
Link - ( New Window )
Did his license plates tell him?

Good,  
Kmed6000 : 3/15/2023 4:56 pm : link
doesn't check any of the boxes that this regime looks for.

I was a huge OBJ supporter, but he's an awful fit even for a desperate Giants team.
Figured as soon as the Waller trade happened  
Strahan91 : 3/15/2023 4:57 pm : link
this would be the case. They're not going to invest the money it'll take for another 30 year old weapon with (even bigger) injury concerns.

If the Giants do sign a WR I bet it'll be a younger speedster to stretch the field who won't cost as much as OBJ whether that's Hardman, Chark, Campbell or resigning Slayton
Certainly the best move long-term  
BlackLight : 3/15/2023 4:57 pm : link
Watching him play in Jerryworld is gonna suck, though.
It makes no sense to bring him in

i suspect the same. hardman stands out with his experience in the system and wanting to go somewhere with a bigger opportunity for targets. he was on track for real nice season and could slide into either the james or slayton role.

Most likely you and him with both be watching games, he will just be watching from the sidelines.

Guys do not come back from 2 ACL's in teh same knee, specifically WR's. OBJ will never be the same, even as the LAR version, IMO.
I was okay on a small contract with incentives  
Lines of Scrimmage : 3/15/2023 5:01 pm : link
if he acted up or didn't perform you just cut him.
We didn’t need LPG

Also said he "doesn't expect it" either.
Dallas

Making cap moves. Cut Zeke and just reworked Tyron Smith. My guess is its them.
Is it weird that I'm hoping he winds up with the Jets?  
Strahan91 : 3/15/2023 5:03 pm : link
Won't be enough targets to go around and we know he won't be happy if he's not getting his. Will just add to what has a good chance of being a complete shit show
Because smart, tough and dependable  
BillT : 3/15/2023 5:03 pm : link

I mean he did play ping pong with OBJ the other day and yes I’m serious. He knows lots of players.

I’m bummed, I was really looking forward to the BBI meltdown.
He hasn't ruled the Giants out

That Rodgers wanted him to go to the Jets with him. That would be a fun dysfunctional team to watch.

Good. He's not the same guy. Let Dallas over pay for a name guy.

Tough to fill out your top positions  
CornerStone246+17 : 3/15/2023 5:56 pm : link
With guys post 30 with some recent injury history. We already signed Waller who is a bit of a risk. The next headliner should ideally be a younger player like Jeudy, Pittman or Aiyuk.

Idk what he's tweeted about other players, but when it comes to Odell you probably won't get a much better source than LicensePlateGuy

He’s friendly with OBJ. I’m fine with that, he’s too big of a gamble and I’m assuming someone like the Jets will overpay to get him.
I wonder what Fireman Ed’s

Never been a fan of his. He's like the Giants equivalent of Fireman Ed. And do TRUE Jet fans like Fireman Ed? Wasn't he a 'Fins fan at one point too?

And has fireman Ed ever been indicted on loan sharking charges?

I'll bet the front office and Daboll have no problem with his attitude; it's the twice-reconstructed left knee that gives them pause

Isn’t that at least the 3rd, if not 4th rework for Tyron?

As much as I can’t stand OBJ  
Rudy5757 : 3/15/2023 7:01 pm : link
If the Giants feel like they can utilize him I wouldn’t hate the move. There are no true 1s or 2s right now in FA so you have to take some gambles. Maybe they can get him on incentives.

I really can’t stand the guy but if he’s healthy and Dabs can control him in the locker room he’d at least give us a weapon for teams to think about.

I don’t want to trade a #1 for Jeudy. I’d rather get Hopkins if they would take a 3rd.
The post is very confusing

Two teams and one of them is not the giants. So the other is, or both aren't the Giants?

I haven't heard anything about NYG being out (yet), but I did hear the Jets are trying to shop Corey Davis to free up space. However, Dallas has a very good offer on the table.
Good.

No draft picks given up & improving the weakest area on the team. Even a diminished OBJ along with Waller is a killer red zone attack. Its going to suck seeing him on the jets or cowboys.

Guess we will wait to the draft to address wr
He'll be in Dallas

Giants interest in OBJ  
Rory : 3/15/2023 9:39 pm : link
was a courtesy to help drum up his name and price tag.

Probably common for most ex Giants looking to sign elsewhere.

Would be typical Dallas move. As long as they have DAK, don’t really care.
I thought he was good with Stafford but he isn’t gonna get better with a 2 acl
Especially being older with numerous leg injuries.

I did kinda want him but he is an oxygen suckers for sure.
Would rather have Hopkins for a #3

Perfect Cowboy, very willing to watch him fail. Not a man of character, eventually it catches you.
