Giants sign Corey Webster to extension

Corey_webster_medium

From Mike Garafolo at NJ.com:

The Giants have announced they've signed CB Corey Webster to a contract extension through the 2013 season.

Webster would have been a free agent at season's end. Now, he's an integral part of the team's secondary for a few more years. That's quite a swing from last year when he was benched early in the season. This year, the Giants' second-round pick in 2005 has had a breakout year and has forced teams to throw elsewhere.

The whole story can be found here

Good for Webster. Here's a guy many were labeling a bust halfway through last season, and if memory serves he even lost his starting job for awhile. I'm glad he'll be around for many years to come.

Good move

Websters been awesome since the end of last season. Him and Ross are everything we always wanted the Will’s to be.

We're only gonna score 17 points?

ThankGod..

he saved the Giant’s a lot of money because if he had gone in the open market he’d have been 7-8 a year

It's not easy being Giants fan in Philly.. but it sure is satisfying

Off Topic

but does anyone out there actually think the Titans are the best team in the NFL? They just lost to Houston. Granted, they probably should have won (why the heck did Jeff Fisher have them go for it on 4th and 3 when they were in range for a 49 yard field goal and only down 1?), but still. They don’t impress me very much.

Bironas

They were in his range and he had a monster game where he had already kicked a 51 yarder

Giants are still #1

they’re still the most complete team and EVERYONE knows that the GMen will be a VERY tough out in the playoffs.

Philly has me worried right now. They’re getting hot at the right time of year. So who are we officially rooting for? Atlanta obviously. But this afternoon, we’re all Denver fans, right?

Not only lost his starting job

But was inactive for several games. He only got to play because of injuries. Great that he made the ,most of his second chance

Is anyone else watching the Pitt-Baltimore game?

I love good defense as much as the next guy, but this game is just boring…

by cjmulrain on Dec 14, 2008 7:08 PM EST reply actions  

that it did

I don’t think he was over the plane on the TD, but worst case scenario they would have tied it up, and I think the Steelers would have won in OT anyway. Baltimore just couldn’t move the ball.

Anyone watching the NBC pre-game show? I’m intrigued to see the Tiki-Eli interview…

Tiki

Wants so bad to still be playing

interview

it was a little awkward. How bad do you think Eli wanted to answer the “when did the team start to take on your personality” question with “well, once you left we were able to really gel as an offense.”

I will forever love Tiki Barber the football player, who was the best and most exciting offensive player the Giants have had in my lifetime, but I will never regret him not being on the team anymore. Strahan I would welcome back with open arms – Tiki, not so much

I agree with your assessment

Tiki was so much fun to watch.. but he’s such a PITA off the field

I should wait for the game open thread

But I just want to be the first to predict: Giants 81, Cowgirls 0

You play to win the game!

no open thread?

No open thread but we’ll make this work I guess.
