nyg signing paris campbell

That is a start.

He is the replacement for Slayton

No draft choices given up

Him coming out

which is too much of a theme with wr group and we'll see what the price is but i have no issue rolling the dice on someone other than slayton.

i think it was campbell who caught the long jump ball against the nyg in the week 17 game.

Giants got a lot faster with him and Waller. He has played a lot of slot but probably falls under that umbrella of guys they see can contribute outside.

Not too bad, not too bad.

For those that care

He has battled injuries but when he plays he shows major talent. I think he could be a big time player for us.

Who hasn’t it seems? 😂

Paris Cammell

Good downfield speed. As long as money is reasonable, kind of like it.

It's like a clearance rack.

That this regime values separation above all other traits.

No protection.. smh. I don’t like this signing.

Do they need to even go that route?
Hopefully he's cheap and the contract is boidable without significant cap implications.

Before we make a judgment on the signing

Played all the games last year but only 15 games his first 3 seasons.
Slayton’s replacement as far as stretching the defense downfield.

#Giants have agreed to terms with former Colts WR Parris Campbell, per
@Schultz_Report


Had Campbell as one of my top targets for NYG entering FA. History with WR coach Mike Groh, good fit in this offense predicated on route running, desperate for speed.

Yup, better to gamble on some upside when shopping there.

Look at the WR depth chart.

FFS

Together or get out. Waller, Campbell, Shepard

Get the signing but between him a Waller we have signed two guys wit resent injury issues. Injuries has been a big issue for this team as it is

good size and speed. It is all about his health.

The Giants are signing Colts WR Parris Campbell, according to a source (
@Schultz_Report
1st).

Mentioned Campbell as a free agent they liked the other day. He can play both inside and outside.

for his career he's been 68% slot, 32% wide. he also had a similar % at OSU. so he's played a lot more slot than slayton.

6% drop rate at IND and 8% drop rate at OSU so he catches the ball better than slayton.

he hasn't been as explosive by YPC but athletically he replaces slayton's speed.



when in doubt going with an OSU receiver isnt the worst idea.

2019 second-round pick missed 34 games due to injury in his first three seasons. He was finally healthy last season and had 63 catches for 623 yards and 3 TD. Played in the slot 77% of snaps last year. WR coach Mike Groh was with Campbell for two years in Indy

#Giants staff has shown an affinity for versatile WRs...

I'm sure he will be cheap. Gamble on a young player with upside. He's flashed when healthy.

Coming off a season where he had about 700 yards from scrimmage and 5 TDs.

Get as many WRs into camp as you can and let them battle it out for 5-6 WR spots.

And 26 in July..😎

He played in all 17 games last year... that is noticeable. His bad luck could be over and gets it together... He has great speed, good route runner, and good hands.

tough, smart dependable

I noticed the ypc too. Very low. I had interest in Campbell over the last few years. It was mostly injuries that derailed him but I also thought that Indy was using him all wrong. How does a guy with that explosion average 10 yards per catch? Daboll and Kafka will get this guy the ball with room to run. I think they can get more out of him than he has shown thus far in his career.

If the dollars are low don't mind it. High upside but ANOTHER potential injury prone guy. Obviously can't be the only thing we do. However if he is kind of an add as another WR2 or WR3 option...not terrible.

We still need ideally to trade for a low contract potential WR1 like eudy/Pittman/Aiyuk. Otherwise at minimum hit it hard in the draft.

Finally put together a full season last year. Not overly productive but that Colts offense was dysfunctional.

He’ll have a chance to break out. Type of guy who has needed a change of scenery.

Still think they draft a WR early.

this is last year in indy, the vast majority of his targets were 9 yards or less downfield. almost 20% were behind the LOS.

I figured the Giants would be very attractive as a 1 year prove it destination for some of these upside guys. You'll have a great opportunity for a high target share with offensive coaches that have a strong reputation.

to his max, it’s Dabes..Yes, he can’t prevent injuries

signing. His injury history likely drives down his price, but you either take a chance on a WR like him, or overpay in terms of salary and draft picks for Jeudy, Sutton, etc. I assume this also means that Slayton and James are likely gone, which is fine.

4: Paris Campbell – Ohio State – 6’0/205

Grade: 78

Summary: After a very successful high school track career, Campbell arrived at Ohio State and had to wait awhile before he made a big impact on offense. He turned from athlete to football player and ended his career with two straight All-Big 10 seasons, 2018 being a 1st Team honor. The team captain showed glimpses of elite, game breaking talent who is based on speed and easy movement. He is one of those players who is simply playing at a different speed than his opponents, no matter who is on the field. He still has some rawness to his game but receivers in the Ohio State offense don’t always get the full opportunity to show what they can really do. There is a boom or bust label next to Campbell’s name, but at the very least he will be a dangerous return man and gimmick-player who opposing defenses do not want to deal with.

*I was recently told by someone I trust that Campbell is “definitely” going to be the first WR taken. The NFL loves his skill set and top tier explosion. Campbell has the look of a star but there are a couple things missing for me. First, I think he lacks some of the toughness that is required to be an effective slot and there is an inconsistent attention to detail that isn’t always needed in the OSU offense. Upside is undeniable and I do think he will make plays, but I wouldn’t want him to be my number one guy.
