Just looking at my notes: Rookie WR Malik Nabers was targeted eight times at Monday's joint-practice against the Lions. He caught all eight passes (although it was debatable whether one was inbounds).
The guy is a stud.
People analyzing stills on Twitter to see if that was a catch let me know football is really back.

#Giants rookie CB Dru Phillips on his rep vs #Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams' reaction and the ensuing fight: “I mean, it was a really good rep by me. So I kind of expect him to get mad. I mean, I’m a rookie. So I think I just did my job well and maybe he didn’t like it. But at the end of the day we’re just out there competing. So I expected it.”
This is great to hear! Can he be the edge corner opposite Banks?

As far as what the Giants may want to clean up vs Lions on Day 2: a few busted coverages in the back seven and the second-team run defense. Otherwise, a solid day overall, and better than that in the red zone.

We need one of these corners to pop. Last year at camp there was a lot of positive vibes about Hawkins. Maybe Phillips can be the real deal...

I know - he was drafted as a slot/nickel corner. But if he is blanketing St Brown, can he play outside and move Flott back to slot where Flott is probably better suited?

A couple thoughts from #Giants practice ...
– I covered my first training camp practice in 2014. There isn’t one that comes to mind that was as energetic, intense or physical as Monday’s. Even the stars were out for the day: Tom Coughlin, Michael Strahan, Victor Cruz and others. They and a good number of fans saw the two teams go at it for over two hours. It wasn’t just the fights (and there were many). Every play felt like a battle between guys who don’t like each other very much. It was legitimately fun to watch and a stark difference from the first practice a year ago where the Lions wiped the floor with New York. Considering what the Lions accomplished last year, and where the Giants appear to be in their rebuild, I expected more of the same. Seriously: Not the case at all. The Giants were in no way outclassed Monday. I felt they
– Nabers continues to just look so good. He really is a special talent. Aside from his on-field explosiveness, you heard the Giants praise his “dog” mentality at various points in Hard Knocks. Some scouts (other teams) were worried about that. Not head coach Brian Daboll – he wanted it. You got a little glimpse of that on Monday. Nabers, after that long catch, ran up the Lions sideline and stared down the defenders over there. Jones threw to Nabers eight times on Monday. The result? Eight completions.

@tommylugauer
(stars as bright as Strahan & Cruz) were in attendance. They were over with the Giants defense while I watched the offense. Morash said Brian Burns lived in the Lions' backfield. That’s notable considering he rushed Penei Sewell most of the day. Burns, after practice, credited himself with at least “two to three” tackles for a loss.

Slot CB may be more important in this system.
That may be true, but I hate to have the weakest link of the defense being an outside corner.
Flott is a backup, McCloud is decent but an upgrade would be nice.
With a few good options available, why not sign one to a 1 year contract.
No.
Why is Flott a backup?
This.
Also, "random vet CB that is available 8/5" has no business starting.
Stephon Gilmore would compete to start.
Also, Flott has not shown the ability to start on the outside in his two years with the Giants. He's young and may develop further but he doesn't look to be the answer this year. It's not all or nothing, if you bring in a better outside corner it doesn't mean Flott never plays or doesn't continue to develop. That thinking is flawed.

As long as no injuries a physical practice vs Detroit is great

•Flott got burnt by Jameson Williams early & later Jamo was alone in the endzone on what must have been a busted coverage
Confirms what I've been saying for weeks and back to last year...he's too long and not quick enough vs smaller, quicker WRs. Nor is it clear that Flott was in on the EZ bust. It's early, and he may pick it up, but there was a reason Schoen and def staff groaned when CBs came off the board.
I have a big smile on my face reading all these posts.
Great job today Daniel Jones….keep it up and I will be back in your fan club, even paying back dues
Great job OL, especially Eluemunor ….i knew you just have to be our starting RT, and you proved it today.
Great job, Malik Nabers. I was not disappointed when we selected you over one of the other QBs because I know your talent is very very special. You will make any QB look better, including Jones, Lock, or Cutlets.
Great job Dru Phillips. I love your attitude and fight. You don’t play like a rookie.
Great job Mr Burns. Getting you was such a blessing….it is great to have a pass rushing super star on our team.
Great job Theo Johnson….you just look the part. Stay healthy please…..
Great job Mr Okereke….what a great trade Schoen made getting you to NY…you were the man last year and you never even missed one play. Keep it up and be safe.
I can go on, but I will stop there.
Great job to all our coaches and GM…..I BELIEVE!

RE: It just seems like a wasted day if they had to stop
They got twice the work done that they normally do, and they had a practice to PHYSICALLY get them ready for the opener - something they clearly were not ready for last year.
It was a good day.
However, they need to follow this up with another good day.

In recent years many coaches have said they get a better look out of joint practices than pre-season. Really hope this team can exhibit a physical identity when the games count.
