Favorite Giants JAG of all time

.

had flashes but that's about it. Kept the team going at the right times

Michael Johnson.

...

.

had one good game late in the season in a meaningless game, and Mara near soiled himself

Kevin Dockery

.

.

that Joe Montgomery was the answer as a young lad.

Mo Carthon

Wish we had a 4th Receiver/Returner anywhere near as good as he was.

he was a veteran that started most of the games for us. We didnt resign him this year. I felt like he did a great job and was surprised we didnt bring him back. Name escapes me.

Ferrara

.

Ron Dixon
Madison Hedgcock
David Patten
Frank Walker
Conrad Hamilton

tough and great guy.

.

.

Kevin Boss
Jake Ballard in 2011
Jonathan Cassilas
David Wilson
Michael Thomas
Dominik Hixon

Wilson

Extremely underrated guy as well was Kenny Phillips

Brandon Short…dude was slow as molasses in January but I’ll be damned if he wasn’t one tough SOB

KP still gets me angry. Dude would have been a game changer and then got sidelined by injuries

David Wilson is in the same breath

I would not consider Gibril Wilson a JAG, I think he's one of the better safeties we've had in the last 20ish years.

Fabian Mareau if we're thinking of the same person, and I agree he filled in well.

Or was he slightly too good?

Yes!

Reyna Thompson, probably one of the best ST players we ever had.

David Wilson had Mr. Magoo-level vision. Dangerous kick returner, lousy running back.

Ernie Koy, Tom Scott, Billy Taylor, Dave Tollefson, Mike Friede, Willie Young, Phil King, Andy Stynchula...

Not super athletic but smart football player and played hard. Good special teamer too

Ferrara

The original high motor white guy! Don’t think he ever made the roster, but he was good for a few training camp fights in his day

He looked like he was about to start hitting another gear down the stretch of 2011. Great returner.

Everyone agrees Nicks had HOF talent if he stayed healthy but man another injury that really killed me as a fan was watching Terrell Thomas have a career cut short. Think he was on his way to becoming a huge star.

is one of my all time favs. But as a Giant, meh. They rarely gave him the ball.

Sorry for the above

I remember a stretch where he had a few td’s

Corey Widmer

Corey Miller

Definitely, but not sure I'd call him a JAG. He made the Pro Bowl as a special teamer.

and Madison Hedgecock are good ones.

Kevin Boss and Jake Ballard. For obvious reasons!

and Dave Tollefsen.

.

I hope both those guys live long happy lives in peace.

A career that averaged 4 catches a game for 45 yards per game. Yeah, he's a JAG.

I'm sure he's pretty cool too. But was JAG.

.

Duh.

Or was he too dominant?

Picking off Brady in the Super Bowl goes a long way.

He absolutely is, he was 7-800 yard receiver at best. the definition of the OP was not a great player but not as scrub. Nobody is remembering Shepard in the world who is not a Giant fan--he just had a longer career as a JAG

My pick as well!

Ernest Gray
Kevin Boss
Rob Carpenter
OJ Anderson (does he count?)

They should have tried one fewer time. Very specifically one fewer time.

he's my pick too. He sure was dominant on BBI for one offseason leading into camp. Once the pads come on though

David Tyree?

Oh wait...

But, if they had, would they have hired George Young and started climbing out of the abyss?

A RB from the early days of my NYG fandom, plus he had a great handle for frigid November Sunday afternoons.

clatterbuck also mentioned Mike Friede from that era as well.

Bob Tucker?

Bob Tucker led the NFC in catches in 1971, I have that trading card.

Rob Carpenter wasn't a JAG
but the guy right before him is my JAG pick
Doug Kotar, died wayyy to young of a brain tumor

...Hostetler.

I can not think of his name…played Right and Left Tackle in a pinch…people used to call him The Cookie Monster…

He had great games and terrible the next

No nonsense, no dancing, N-S, chainmover.

For one year he was a stud

Kent Graham (both tenures)

David Tyree (if he even counts)

Chris Calloway

Both of these excellent.

Alford really SHOULD win this award. For that never forgetting sack statement on Brady w my all time fave Super Bowl play call

Chase Blackburn...

Smith?

Mathias kiwanuka(does he qualify)
Sinorice moss

He’s a few : Curtis McGriff. Jim Clack . Doug Kotar, who was sort of like the Giants version of Jim Kiick. Plus he died so young . Scott Eaton , a corner, who had played hoops at Oregon .

I don’t think guys like Rob Carpenter and Larry Csonka should be categorized as JAGS . Carpenter put the team in his back after coming over from
the Oilers , leading the Giants to a playoff berth in 81 , including a road
playoff win against the Eagles . Csonka is in both HOFs .
