Looking forward to how he does in OTAs and camp before the summer

begins. I really hope the Giants see enough from their group of TEs to kiss Waller goodbye. This kid could very well be the key to that. The Giants have a nice group of guys competing for the 3rd TE spot between Cager, Stoll, Manhertz, and Jackson.
Really liked this pick

Hopefully Waller stays on for one more year and can mentor a bit.
I really like this dude…

I think we’re going to see some great plays out of him this year and beyond.

I’m way more excited about him than that “JPP of tight ends” from years ago.
This kid is going

To be a beast
Didn't Sy pick him in real time?  
Optimus-NY : 5/22/2024 6:09 pm : link
I'm pretty sure he did when the Giants' turn came in RD4.

don't know about that, but Sy did say this kid could have the most upside out of all the TE prospects including Bowers. We'll see.
Not only does Theo know the proper way to hold a pen -something

seldom taught anymore-which is impressive in itself, but it shows that at least his right hand is fully functional (no broken fingers that have not healed correctly).

I am also impressed by the way his hands dwarf that pen.

Not so sure Waller and “mentor” belong in the same sentence, unless someone is suggesting he needs one himself.
Never-mind a tutoring Waller ...

Just imagine the damage a HEALTHY Waller and Theo Johnson on the field at the same time (for 17 games). It's a pipe-dream, I just don't see Waller's chronic nerve going away.
Let the coaches teach

I'd rather see Theo get as many game reps as possible this year.

And Bellinger, too, I still like him as a player.
