Just a reminder that we will start receiving some good updates at the end of this week on the new draft class, undrafted rookie free agents, and tryout players (both rookies and veterans).
Any idea why we have 3 "shorts" on the Giants YouTube channel and that's it for the rookies? Did they can the social media folks?
Do you mean since the draft? They've done some post-draft content but they aren't going to have anything on the rookies until they show up on Thursday.

Teams like Philly, Indy, etc. have put out 30+ minute hype videos of their draft picks and the process.
two best productions I've seen the Giants ever do were their post-draft "Giants Life" pieces, one after 2022 and one after 2023. If I recall, they didn't put that out right away.
This first minicamp is make or break for their careers here. We need to make definitive judgements about them as players - and as people - over these two days. No mealy-mouth half measures. They’ll likely be in shorts, with no contact, which is the best way to evaluate players. So get your hot takes ready. Some of you may want to write them now and have them ready beforehand.
For $12.95 I have templates available to save you time. You just circle either “sucks/rules” as befits your bias. The rants include base insults or praise just shy of canonization of players, coaches, management, and ownership, and political whining tempered to squeak in under the no politics rule by being vague enough for plausible deniability. They really make your mini-camp posts easy and will suck the joy out of anyone that disagrees, or your money back*.

*limitations apply, void where I don’t want to
Rushing to snap judgements based on preconceived biases and fear of being wrong can get complicated. This is like a BBI Easy Button - as always you add tremendous value here Dan.
I'm assuming you'll also have a regular season version that BBIers can use in-game after particularly good or bad plays. Maybe also a premium version that supports judgements with cherry picked stats.
Eric - the premium package offers a variety including white, snowstorm, polar bear, ivory (vegan), ivory (non vegan), cloud, and a new one scientifically developed to bounce all spectrums of visible light together back to your eye we call “light.”
HBart - glad you asked, yes we have multiple tiers of service coming out depending on how sure and obnoxious you want to be. We are also working with ChatFU on artificial stupidity science (ASS) to incorporate the most ludicrous arguments based on misconceptions about statistics, obscure invalidated metrics, and metrics so complex as to be utterly sure to shed darkness on any argument. For example, “you tool, according to TOSR.pizza Jones is only 67th all time at TWOHNGFTRRTWR, (Throws with off hand in night games to receivers running the wrong route, which is devised by analysts who watched the TV footage half drunk and rated these throws divided by the cube root of all throws in NFL history times the natural log of the absolute value of Avogadro’s Number adjusted for the throwing angle trajectory and dummy variables for down, distance, quarter, point differential, limited slip differential, interdimensionality, wind, elevation, atmospheric moisture, precipitation, distance from nearest tornado, and 6 other statistics we made up to compound the confusion. This is then converted to scale ranging from 1 to 1.0001 to arrive at the preconceived conclusion we wanted from the beginning.) You can’t win with a QB that’s not 65th or better in TWOHNGFTRRTWR , it’s in the analytics!
As a spit and vinegar pissing yute (Joe Pesci), I enjoyed combing through the basic stats of the day, watching film, and analyzing performances with game context. But as responsibilities pile on, who has the time anymore (or inclination)? Not to mention so many new stats they'd break Visicalc. So confusing and tedious.
I'm hopeful for a premium version with different logical fallacy models. Advanced users (especially the media) will really appreciate the power to choose between straw man, bandwagon, hasty generalization, slothful induction, correlation/causation, Texas sharpshooter, personal incredulity, and the tried and true BBI ad hominem.

Last year, they sure seem to be satisfied with SMJ and Hyatt in the 2nd and eventually moved up and drafted him in the 3rd.
What do they show and don't show...will be very telling.
