Landon Collins?

tommcd66 : 3/18/2023 11:23 am
Will they bring him back? He made a few nice plays at the end of the season. I don’t recall anything from the playoffs.

Heard his name come up at all. Id be on board with bringing him back on a 1 year minimum deal.

Landon Collins is done. Giants were desperate last season. No cap money. They are in better shape this season
I don’t think they’re very interested.

But we’ll see. He may not get a lot of offers and the Giants could be his best option — if they want him.

This
Collins now is a very situational player. I don’t think he really fits  
Ivan15 : 3/18/2023 11:29 am : link
This defense. That’s why his playing time was very inconsistent. I think he can still play. Right team, right $$.
I always liked him

I think Wink can find a way to make him fit...if the price is right

I don't think money will be an issue. LC's big money days are behind him. He's a good story. Let's see if the roster's depth improves to the point that it doesn't need him or not.

he had a few big plays for us towards the end of the season...
They're reworking the parts on defense

Year Two, changes are underway.

That's very good to hear. Can you give any more specifics, or are you sworn to secrecy?

Hope this means we are bringing in a vet Corner so we don’t force a pick in round 1
Collins was great as a practice squad elevation.... Dirt cheap  
Larry in Pencilvania : 3/18/2023 12:02 pm : link
He's the past and was one of the issues on those bad teams. Both he and Love can be replaced
I like Landon and I’m glad he had a good return  
mfsd : 3/18/2023 12:05 pm : link
after he left with bitterness about how DG handled his departure. But strikes me his role was highly specialized in Winks defense, he didn’t get a lot of snaps.

It was notable they publicly shared Jefferson was changing to LB. Maybe they see him as a better option than Collins for that role - and he’s a Wink loyalist
...  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 3/18/2023 12:14 pm : link
I think his lack of snaps in the postseason said a lot. His pick six vs. the Colts will be his final moment here IMO.

Good career & a good dude from all accounts.

But I'd be floored if he is a Giant this fall.

He did indeed. That Pick 6 right before the end of the first half at home against the Colts was awesome. He clearly loves playing the NYG too. I hope something can be worked out. He's good depth.

More speed, more physical, versatile, and fit Wink's system better at all three levels.
if there is still a spot on this team for Collins  
Dave on the UWS : 3/18/2023 7:47 pm : link
than they haven't improved as much as they would like to this off-season.
I'll always remember his pick 6 against the Colts to make it  
PatersonPlank : 3/18/2023 10:15 pm : link
21-0. The crowd was going crazy as he was running down the sideline.
Last year they would take  
nygiants16 : 3/18/2023 10:52 pm : link
Smith and mcfadden off the field on passing downs, this year with Okereke he is going to be on the field at all times..

That leaves 1 spot for an in the box safety and my guess they liked Mccloud in that role

Thanks, Jon. That puts Deonte Banks higher up on my wish list.
