Five Biggest Questions Facing The Giants This Offseason

The New York Giants have many interesting, and difficult, decisions to make this offseason. Here is a quick look at what comes to mind as the five biggest questions as the team prepares to defend its 2012 Super Bowl title.

Star-divide

1. The Future Of Osi Umenyiora -- Throughout the 2011 season we knew Umenyiora's future with the Giants would have to be addressed this offseason. Flush with the excitement of victory during Tuesday's championship parade, Umenyiora told reporters that "of course" he wanted to stay with the Giants.

If Osi can truly be happy as the third wheel in the Giants' defensive end rotation behind Jason Pierre-Paul and Justin Tuck, and if he truly can accept the fact that the Giants are not renegotiating his contract, then he should certainly stay. The three-headed defensive end rotation gives the Giants something no one else.

If the Giants, and Umenyiora, don't believe he can remain happy in the current situation then general manager Jerry Reese needs to get what he can for Umenyiora and move on.

2. The Future Of Brandon Jacobs -- The often-moody running back is also proclaiming his love for the Giants these days and saying he wants to stay. Jacobs is due $4.4 million in base salary for next season, though, and that is a lot to pay for a backup running back with a lot of mileage on his tires.

3. Who Will Play Tight End? -- It won't be the torn ACL tandem of Jake Ballard and Travis Beckum, at least not at the beginning of the season. Bear Pascoe is a decent player and a fan favorite who helps as a blocker at both fullback and tight end, and can catch a little bit, but I can't imagine the Giants see Pascoe as an every-down starting tight end.

4. What To Do About The Offensive Line -- This group was probably the Giants' weakest link in 2011, and Eli Manning and Kevin Gilbride were successfully able to work around it. Will Beatty returning to left tackle will help. What do the Giants do at right tackle, where Kareem McKenzie is a free agent coming off a season in which he looked old and slow? What do they do at left guard, especially if David Diehl winds up moving to right tackle to replace McKenzie? Do they trust 2011 fourth-round pick James Brewer enough to play him in 2012? Can Mitch Petrus be a starter? Do they need to draft a center?

5. Can They Re-sign Mario Manningham? -- Super Mario has become the third wheel in the Giants' wide receiver group behind Victor Cruz and Hakeem Nicks. Despite his occasional screw-ups, Manningham is an awfully good third wheel, though, as he proved once again in the closing moments of the Super Bowl.

The Giants will have to fork over big money for Cruz this offseason, and you have to think there are teams out there who believe Manningham can be an explosive, play-making No. 1 or No. 2 receiver, and who will be willing to pay him like one. Can the Giants afford to pay him that way? Are they willing to turn the No. 3 receiver role over, finally, to Ramses Barden? Could Jerrel Jernigan figure in the mix?

Am I alone here in disliking basketball?

Tried to get into it as a kid, just never could. My guess is the lack of brute force. Look at my favorite sports: football (American), rugby, hockey, baseball, golf. The first three are just violent games. Baseball, specifically baserunning, can become violent and if you see me and my buddies golfing, violence (somewhat playful) may not be too far behind. And if you were to talk to me, I am a pretty even-keeled guy. Just something about sports brings out the caged animal in me. Got a lot of fouls playing basketball as a kid.

It's called the city game

I grew up in Brooklyn with a ball in my hands, but I don’t really watch much anymore. To me basketball has always been about style as well as substance, which doesn’t suit everyone. The perfect example is that anyone can shoot 85%+ from the free throw line if they learn to shoot underhanded like Rick Barry did, but no does because they’re afraid to look silly.

wasn't Barden a healthy scratch for the post-season?

It’s hard to go from not being considered good enough to play at all in the most important games of the year to third WR on a pass-first team. Barden only plays IF Manningham leaves AND Jernigan can’t fill the role AND they can’t sign or draft a better option.

As for the other questions, I’d expect Osi stays, Jacobs goes, they draft or sign a TE, and McKenzie goes and they reshuffle and re-load on the O-line.

by long time listener on Feb 9, 2012 9:30 AM EST reply actions  

I think so

I’ve wondered for a while what’s going on with his development. But I think he stays because we’ve hung onto him for a while and it’d be a waste never to get any return on that investment.

by soulless chimney on Feb 9, 2012 9:47 AM EST via mobile up reply actions  

that's one reason they'd hang on to him

Another is because he’s physically gifted, and receivers of his size don’t grow on trees. But WR is going to have to be a strength again next year, since TE and, to a lesser extent, RB are going to be question marks. So they can’t waste a spot on a guy just because he’s their guy – if there’s someone better for that 3rd or 4th WR spot, they need to jump on it.

by long time listener on Feb 9, 2012 9:59 AM EST up reply actions  

agreed

in the Giants defense no one expected this performance from Cruz. If pushed Barden down the depth chart. JJ was dressed because he is a returner.

He was a healthy scratch because of his lack of ST ability

He’s really only capable of being a receiver, and we obviously had enough of those. Guys like Jernigan and Thomas were active because they’re damn good ST’s players.

I fully expect him to be penciled in for that 3rd WR spot if Ham leaves.

I was looking at previous fanposts. I ran across one of your comments that stated

that you would call Jerry Reese as Ernie Accorsi’s equal or superior if we won a championship. Does that stand true now, trueblue?

I'd say he's better than Accorsi

Ernie was great, but he had a bit of riverboat gambler in him, would take a flyer on some speedster in the 2nd, what not

JR is like a machine, he’s a little scary, It’s like he’s the Eli of GMs. Just does his thing, his quotes are often a little goofy. Never wants the spotlight. But hes got to be the most driven person in the organization to do what he does.

He gets us a franchise QB when Eli is done, he could well go to the Hall of Fame. Its to the point when I see detractors I just laugh.

The argument Osi made last year makes even less sense...

He had a great year…when he wasn’t injured. He contributed massively during the playoffs and in big games during the season but he wants “top 5” DE money then I’m not sure…

He is the 3rd best DE on this team. Tuck needs a raise before we even think about Osi’s bank account.

3rd best on this team

Does not mean the same as other teams. Osi is a starter on 75-90% of NFL teams. Osi is a #1 DE on 75-90% of NFL teams. Saying Osi doesn’t deserve the money because he is behind 2 of the best DEs in the NFL is stupid and asinine.

Agreed.

I think everyone here at bbv already know that I am one of Osi’s biggest supporters. I must say that I agree that the formula that Fewell used this past season should remain if Osi remains with the giants. I also agree with Skii in that did try to renege on his current contract if you look at it from the outside, however, as has been stated already we don’t know what JR told him during 2010 season. I think that Osi is better than Tuck and his contract should be addressed before Tuck’s.

If you want to argue that Manning is a) not a great quarterback or b) not the best quarterback in franchise history your credibility is automatically shot.

I claim I know nothing

therefore I am the smartest man in the world.

I think though, Osi realizes he could make a 1-2 mil a year for the next 2-3 years on this team, with the spot he has, OR he could make 2 mil next year playing every down, and then get cut, in a starting position where he HAS to play the run.

Regardless of what happens, No playoffs, playoffs, no superblow, superblow.... The 2011/2012 is one of my favorite Giants Teams of all time.

+1 but I disagree with you on one point Skii.

you are not the smartest man in the world, but you are 1 of the smartest men in the world :-) Let’s hope that Osi draws the same conclusion, and acts accordingly.

Osi should get payed because 32 out of 32 teams in the NFL would LOVE to have him. He would also start for most of those 32 teams. Therefore he is worth top money.

by Ualtar on Feb 9, 2012 2:54 PM EST up reply actions  

Noone said Tolly would be remotely as good as Osi.

But in the salary cap era, especially for a team like the Giants who are pushing the cap, you’ve gotta consider every position. Can’t just load up everywhere like the Yankees.

The idea would be unless Osi is willing to take a salary commensurate with his profile, that of an older, yet still elite pass-rusher with poor run-defense and a history of injuries, it would be better to use that money to improve some other position, or to keep another player who would be otherwise released.

In conclusion: try to keep Osi, but if he insists on getting that last, oversized Free Agency paycheck, let him go; the TEAM always comes first.

mario manningham

getting mario back would be awesome. obviously priority number one is to lock up victor cruz. after that i would love to see mario manningham get signed. maybe use a franchise tag on manningham? that is a thought. if osi is happy in his 3rd DE spot, by all means keep him. if he is disgruntled, lets cut our ties and move on.

the offensive line is going to need a complete overhaul. i have no insight at all as to how to do this, but that is why jerry reese received a standing ovation at the pep rally on tuesday. in reese we trust.

I think Osi's stock has risen from where it was in pre-season.

He was injured but I think their are plenty teams who would pay him to rush the passer. Saints? Panthers?

by BB1156 on Feb 9, 2012 8:46 PM EST up reply actions  

No way

Using the franchise tag on Manningham would be a terrible move. The Franchise Tag rule states that they would have to pay him the average of the top 5 paid players at his position or 120% of his last year’s salary, which ever is greater. Last year for WRs, that amount was about $11 Million dollars. There is no way you pay your mistake-prone #3 receiver that much money.

I like Manningham. He’s exactly what a #3 receiver should be, but that is way too much money to invest in him.

+1000

I agree. His catch in the Super Bowl was phenomenal but let’s not forget what the overall picture of what we get with Manningham. Ham is a 3rd WR option who was a #2 option who fell down the depth chart because of his inconsistent play and the emergence of the more consistent Victor Cruz. To use a franchise tag on him would be a mistake, especially when the guy has an MO for giving up on routes, running the wrong routes, not staying in bounds( he also had one of those in the SB), dropping TD passes occasionally, and a guy who has trouble getting open consistently in single coverage. Let’s not forget, Terrel Thomas and Osi deserve to be paid IMO. Osi has come up big for us, and I think it will be a huge mistake to let Osi go.

Love Manningham but

I hate the Franchise tag, it’s supposed to be a stopgap measure to allow more time for a trade or extension, not a way to buy 1 more, non-guaranteed year from a player.

Besides, the Giants can’t afford to put almost 10% of the cap for 2012 on Ham. If they get something done, it’ll be a longer term contract with a relatively small 2012 cap hit.

I think JJ12 will slide right in. I don’t mind Ham Staying but if he leaves for greener money IMO JJ12 is fast as all hell and can be a good slot receiver. Move Cruz to the outside to play with Nicks and we will be deadly. We need to draft a tight end in the Draft and pick up a another via FA. BJ is great and I love him to death but I think he is gone. Let Scott become the second back and grab another in the draft. this Offense has the potential to be better then we were this year.

You simply can’t pay MM like a #1, because the number of snaps he’ll play won’t merit that

if someone else will, how can he say no. It’s a deep,crop of FA WRs, let’s hope DJAX, Bowe and the rest grab the $$$. If it goes like AB and we sign him to a reasonable deal, he’ll be back.

I would love a good TE, LB, OL with #32, but will also settle for BPA. I love Jacobs too, but will also not cry in my pillow if he leaves. No more aggravation with him tip-toeing to line and running straight up. Completely agree with the offense and I think, if everything stays the same but upgrades on line, you will see that happen.

He is also a force.

A reasonable 2nd is my bet…IF JR even trades him. Maybe some creative financing takes place, which would be great. A happy Osi as the 3rd DE is a huge win for JR.

It's not a shift

Hes been doing both for at least 8 games

But it’s a fact that it’s easier to make big plays by the numbers, less traffic. Getting a new quality slot guy, and leaving Vic out there full time, and Nicks on the other side, you open up the middle dramatically.

Eli is our King!

by trueblue63 on Feb 9, 2012 12:07 PM EST up reply actions  

Big Plays

Just looking back, Cruz was in the slot for his 99 yard TD vs. Jets, the 70+ yarder vs. Dallas, the one-handed grab vs. Seattle, and The Superbowl TD catch. He is such a match-up nightmare in the slot. He’s is a lot like Wes Welker, but with more speed, which is what allows him to break big plays. Yes, he gets moved around, but I think he’s been much more effective from the slot.

by Jonnyteach on Feb 9, 2012 1:28 PM EST up reply actions  

That's absolutely true

But long term, you have to assume that teams will take an approach similar to Pats, and give him outside treatment from the slot. That turned him into a possession WR.

I’d prefer to see JJ or Barden in the slot and him outside if MM leaves. MM has great deep explosion, so VC in the slot with MM outside is just great too.

Eli is our King!

by trueblue63 on Feb 9, 2012 2:21 PM EST up reply actions  

Agreed

but the other thing I look at is the dangerous nature of inside throws. Those timing patterns require a precise route runner. Without that, you risk interceptions. I like Barden’s size, but I don’t trust him to run those kind of routes. His body makes him ideal on the outside.

Like Plax, Eli could just put it up there and be pretty sure his guy is going to be the one that comes out with it. I really think Barden had a lost year due to his injury. He really hasn’t had a chance to develop trust with Eli. He wasn’t able to participate in the lock-out passing sessions with Eli. That’s where Eli learned to trust Cruz.. Given a full off-season to prepare, I think Barden could be an impact player next year.

JJ could develop into a reliable slot guy, but that remains to be seen.

The biggest question is Manningham or Osi?? Passing game or rushing the QB?

In our system, it’s hard to integrate new guys into the system. We have a 1st rd DE in Kiwi and would be better served to put him on the D-line at his natural position and get a LB in FA or the draft. Manningham is priority #1. Since teams have effectively removed Cruz in the playoffs compared to the regular season, our tough division winning schedule next year, we need to move the ball. He is a must-sign.

by lboogie25 on Feb 9, 2012 9:40 AM EST reply actions  

But...

with Cruz being doubled, look at what Nicks did? If Ham moves on, JJ gets the shot or someone else. Hixon comes back healthy and Ham would just be the new Tyree.

I agree with getting Kiwi back on the line. Trade Osi, hopefully for a mid-2nd rd pick, and the rotation would be Tuck, JPP, Kiwi. Not adverse to selecting a DE high, because JR just does an awesome job at it and in JR I trust.

Kiwi is good at DE, but keeping him over Osi is a FAIL

Kiwi hasn’t had the same type of impact that Osi has had at the DE position. I mean we’re talking about getting rid of a guy who recorded 6 sacks in one game, a guy who is notorious for strip sacks ( let’s not forget the TD saving one on Aaron Rodgers in the Divisional Round) and a guy who will cause havoc and take a lot of attention off of Tuck and JPP.

JPP will bang on the table quite soon…not to mention our other free agents. Its what happens with championship teams…errybody wants some moolah.

funny thing about that, though

is that they don’t realize that Eli makes them better. he consistently gets the most out of his receivers, no matter who they are. I have a feeling that we’re going to see another receiver step up and make big plays next year. unfortunately for MM, I don’t see it being him.

I have confidence that either JJ, DePalma (maybe), or some FA will become an effective slot guy. sure, losing MM would suck, because we’ve watched how great he can be, but we’ll be fine.

How do you know?

JJ12 did nothing all year. No basis for thinking he can develop into a 3rd WR just like that. We will probably lose MM and I would prefer that Cruz stays as our slot receiver, where he is special. But we will need a 2nd WR. More hopeful Barden can do it than JJ12. 2 problems with Barden: Not sure he has good enuf work ethic and could be too slow for NFL.

I'm projecting what I saw

JJ makes silly fast cuts in traffic. He has calmed down since he muffed about 20 punts last preseason. Now he isn’t trying to go 80 on every touch. But it was pretty clear that he was coming on.

I didnt say he was Welker, just that I see some of the same things, quickness, quickness that is off the charts (not speed). And when he got a crease on KR he knew how to get North South right away. Generally speaking that’s very promising. Given our track history I always like our chances with 1st to 3rd round picks developing in years 2 and 3. Our coaches ability to train youngsters is very very high.

as for manningham, he had a down year but made up for it in the playoffs. i would love to welcome him back but realistically i think he will get a better offer. chicago can sure use him as well as many other teams. if he leaves i just hope he makes it out of the nfc east, dont really wanna face him and see him in another uniform twice a year.

And for me, something about him always getting in front of the camera shirtless for the locker room camera bugs me. It’s not a homophobic thing on my part at all, I am as liberal on all that as anyone can possibly be. But it’s about the need to draw attention to himself in what feels like a bit of a narcissistic way.

You need to be a flat out baller to pull all that off, and he has not done anything with his opportunities to approach his work like a diva.

Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but I’ve seen him called on it on twitter, and he just loves the attention.

Our coaches are old school. They focus on the top 3 (another Blogging the …) posted stats on snaps, that says it all. If Barden wasn’t on PUP when Vic got his shot, then we would know. Once Vic had established himself, the discussion was over.

And you’re right, after top 3, WR must have a STs role, that’s just how TC rolls.

When we needed a WR in 08 MM when from invisible to starter. If MM leaves, they’ll give JJ and Barden a shot. Someone will emerge. Barden’s injury in 2010 really hurt him

it’s why he was inactive in the postseason, can’t play special teams cuz he can’t block. He’d be a disaster at TE, especially with how we use our TEs as blockers, even if he did add 30 pounds.

My thoughts:

1) Osi will be back, barring some team making a ridiculous offer to JR (ie: 1st rounder or better)

2) Jacobs is a toss up. I think he’ll be open to renegotiating his contract and taking less money. He’s said a few times that he plays for his teammates, not a check. Likewise, he said that the players and front office need to do whatever they can to keep the team together.

3) Andre Brown will be on the active roster next year. He should have been this year, but I think the coaches wanted to see if his achilles could hold up to a season’s worth of practices.

4) Sadly, I doubt ‘Rio will be back. He’s too good to take #3 money, and I think of several teams that will pay him to be #1 or 2.

4b) Barden or JJ12 will step up, and possibly be even better than Manningham. Both of them are smarter, and in this offense, intelligence is absolutely necessary. Barden offers physical tools that no other receiver on the team offer. JJ12 could very well be a better version of DeSean Jackson. Both are comfortable in the slot and on the outside, offering greater flexibility.

5) Bear Pascoe will be resigned, and Reese won’t be shy about fixing the position. They could also use Barden as a psuedo TE (his down field blocking is at last as good as Beckum’s. Just re-watch Cruz’s 99yrd TD. It was Barden that threw the blocks)

6) I’m not worried about the O-line. Reese has shown a definite plan when it comes to rebulding/tooling the O-line. Every draft there’s O-linemen who fall at least 1 round farther than they should, and Reese takes them. Beatty should have been a 1st rounder, Brewer could have been a 2nd rounder, Petrus was a day 2 pick.

Petrus is ready to start. He’s already started, and when he did they could run the ball. Baas will be fine at C. I see him taking the Canty career path: Injured and hated his first year, and then a rock and great pickup from there on out. I have confidence that Flaherty will have Brewer’s technique issues ironed out in time to start in September. He already showed great improvement through the pre-season.

Beatty – Petrus – Baas – Snee – Brewer makes for a powerful and athletic line. The only question is if the coaching staff (and fans) are willing to live with any growing pains the line might have.

7) Biggest question: Which Pro Bowler will Reese draft next?

by Raptor22 on Feb 9, 2012 9:53 AM EST reply actions  

don’t forget about Boothe

by DukBudr on Feb 9, 2012 11:54 AM EST up reply actions  

I haven't

I see Boothe as the super-sub.

1) Boothe is too valuable as a backup to be starting (ie: if somebody goes down, you can just plug him in. if he’s starting, you have 2 upset positions rather than 1)

2) IMO, Baas and Petrus are both better at their respective jobs (C/LG) than Boothe is.

by Raptor22 on Feb 9, 2012 12:03 PM EST up reply actions  

Problem with Petrus is mistakes

On tape you see him run the wrong way and then try to correct

If he learns the position he is a starter, he has excellent power, when he hits guys they move.

Osi will not be in the Giants' long term plans and I doubt we trade him.

1) Too many key pieces coming up in FA after next year or the year after (Kiwi, Cruz, Nicks, Tuck)
2) If we lose Osi to FA, we get a 3rd round compensatory pick so there’s no point in trading him unless its a 1st rounder.
3) He’s stated multiple times that he’d like to leave and the Giants are pretty inflexible giving into demands

I agree he’s not in the long term plans for the giants. But if so, why not get whatever you can for him.I’d still rather have a decent 2nd round pick than a late/compensatory 3rd.

by NYG_Slater on Feb 9, 2012 10:02 AM EST up reply actions  

Would you rather have Osi's services + 3rd rounder or a 2nd rounder?

by BigBlueIntervention on Feb 9, 2012 10:04 AM EST up reply actions  

honestly.

id take the 2nd in a heartbeat. Because that 3rd rounder is more like a 4th. JR could land a starter with a decent 2nd and over the long term i think you get more value that way. Unless of course, with osi we win the SB again during that year.

As a fan, i see the arguement for OSI. But if I’m a GM and i trust/believe in my scouting and drafting abilites, i want that pick.

by NYG_Slater on Feb 9, 2012 10:10 AM EST up reply actions

Then he can accept his role and the extra $$ or he can shut up and play next year for a better contract elsewhere. Nobody’s giving us a 1 or a 2 for him.

My 2 cents

I think Mario will get a big offer and leave.

I think Osi will stay, and leave as a FA next year.

I think BJ should be released for his play, not attitude.

I think they have to rework Cruz’s contract, but on top of that. I’m sure who or how shrewd JPP’s agent is, I think JPP is a sincerely great kid. But, I’ve heard the argument made that his contract should be reworked as well, or might create another Osi situation, since he is currently being underpaid by millions based on his play.

Now, I don’t see JPP having the same disposition that Osi has, but might have an ahole agent eventually whisper in his ear and sour him.

JPP gets extended early if he improves another quantum leap

Think about it

Week 12 2012 season, he’s a human highlight reel, you extend now and the player has to be thrilled, injury is always such a huge concern. You get a better deal for the team. And if any rookie Ive seen has earned it, he’s the one. Plays like he’s going to drop dead of exhaustion at the end of every game, totally humble.

Ham

it depends entirely on what he gets offered elsewhere. If it’s low enough that the Giants can/want to match, I’d think they will, but if he gets a big contract, and I think he will, then I’m afraid he’s gone. I can just see a team like DET or SF thinking they’re just a WR away and overpaying for Ham’s services.

Osi is going to come down to money too… I think he’ll be okay with #3 DE, especially with the way we rotate, but provided he’s getting paid $5-6 mil a year… whether that’s worth it or not, I don’t know enough about the cap situation to say.

Our cap situation is fairly constrained so...

1) Jacobs won’t be back unless he basically accepts a minimum amount of $$
2) Mario won’t be back because he’ll get paid far more than he’s worth and we’ll extend and pay Cruuuzzz
3) Aaron Ross will be gone but TT will be back for a Kiwi-like deal
4) Osi will be traded for some combo of 2nds, 3rd, 4ths unless he accepts that his contract has been pretty fair and he’s not a top 5 or top 10 DE

I’m comfortable with all of these happening too

yup i agree too.

but some possible additions include:

We say goodbye to Diehl and Kareem depending how FA works out.
Also there is an outside shot of canty being asked to renegotiate with a chance of being cut.

Ugh Rolle too. is he still owed guaranteed money next year? 6.5 mill is disgusting.

by NYG_Slater on Feb 9, 2012 10:23 AM EST up reply actions  

Agreed,

Diehl should go he’s just bad he was okay but now he’s just the defenition of bad. Boothe is better and they need to pick up one or two more linemen.

We actually get a lot of freed up space if we let Diehl, Jacobs, Ham, Ross and eventually Osi.
This could eventually give Cruz , Weatherford and a X freeagent a new contract

I probably wouldn’t miss any of theese players (maybe osi and his turnovers.)

JR is too smart to let two replacable players hamstring the salary cap and we all know brandon jacobs is done not because of money but his play is way down and as for ham we cant afford him and we have enough pieces to replace him

My thoughts

1) Hold on to Osi as long as you can at the current deal. If he really has a problem with it, then look to move him.

2) Cut Jacobs. Too much money, not enough production. As a back of his size, he should have no problems converting those short yardage situation most of the time and he doesn’t. Spend the money elsewhere.

3) Go outside to get a TE. I’m not sure who would be available from a FA standpoint, but signing (or drafting) a TE would probably be the best option.

4) Draft OL. OL play this year was tough to watch and getting younger on the OL would probably help everyone involved. Let McKenzie walk, and put Beatty at LT. Draft a T or G, put Diehl in one spot and let Boothe, Petrus, new draftee and Brewer fight for the other. If a C is available at the proper value, take him as well.

5) Manningham will be gone. Someone will overpay for him, and the Giants will not be that team, considering the years that Cruz and Nicks had. I like Manningham, but he’ll go for the money elsewhere (as he should).

Now, kids, being eaten by a crocodile is just like going to sleep; in giant blender.

by meigs1414 on Feb 9, 2012 10:18 AM EST reply actions  

I mostly agree

Jacobs is gone. Loved our time with him, but he can be replaced both on and off the field for less money. Period.

Need to add multiple Tight Ends. Hopefully they find a young vet at a low price in FA, which will allow them not to feel like they have to reach in the draft. However, it does look like there is a lot of good talent at the position in the draft this year, so maybe the BPA at one point will be a TE.

I am certain that McKenzie and Deihl have played their last games as Giants. Deihl is due $4M a year for the next two years. His current level of play can be replaced for much less money. I am feeling that OL will be the #1 priority of FA and the Draft.

I agree that Manningham is gone. I hate to say this, given how happy I was to have had him, but there was a reason that the Patriots said, “Cover Nicks and Cruz and make him throw to Manningham and Pascoe.” There are actually quite a few mid-level receivers available in FA this year, so there is always the possibility the Giants could let MM go somewhere overpaid and sign somebody just as good for value without skipping a beat.

Lastly, I can’t imagine any scenario where Osi doesn’t hold out this year, and I can’t imagine any scenario where it makes sense to have him signed up for the $7-$10 million he wants for the next three years when the team has Tuck, Nicks, and a couple other important players needing extensions soon.

So any combination of draft picks that can turn into depth at TE, OL, or RB for Osi will probably be the way the Giants need to go.

by JTMacc on Feb 9, 2012 3:59 PM EST up reply actions  

manninghams gone

a team like the browns or seahawks or anyone offensively deficient saw that catch in the superbowl and is going to ridiculously overpay

osi might draw some trade interest but i doubt anyone throws a 1st rounder for a guy who has been a tad injury prone and cant exactly play the run well.

the line needs to be revamped though and mckenzie’s prob gone. i expect reese to use at least a 2nd rounder on this unit

and the giants will prob address linebacker in the 1st round of the draft although i dont think they’re gonna take an outside backer and not a middle backer. i think my boy chase blackburn may have just done enough to earn himself a crack at the fulltime starting job next year. kiwi i think is better suited at the line though and if osi goes thats exactly where i expect to see him

Im still saying reese goes BPA for the draft.

I’d expect reese looks for a FA signing for LB and TE (nothing flashy). just something thats lets reese draft bpa. Might avoid signing a TE if reese loves Dwayne Allen. He should be there for us, cant imagine any team picking 25th or later taking him. anything earlier is a big reach

yea he sure does love going BPA in the 1st

its really gonna depend on who falls to 32 though. any position outside qb is pretty much a possibility.

It’s troubling that they are commenting on the game as a whole and not just acting as their jobs require.

Best part of that was Brady on the HAM catch,

“He caught it.” I also now like Vince Wilfork, he is the only Pat I like. Just a fun guy, was the only guy that whole game enjoying himself and having fun, which is what it’s all about. And he admitted he wasn’t held, and it was a bad call. Kudos to him for that.

I'd think Manningham is probably least likely to be back

I’m sure he’d like to stay but there is no way the Giants will be able to match what he’ll be offered. He’s a #3 option in the Giants offense but he’s good enough to be higher than that somewhere else. Good for him, he earned whats coming.

If they can get a 2 for Osi, I think its time to jump on that offer. They’re not going to pay him anywhere near what he wants to be the 3rd best DE on the team, nor should they. Who knows what JR could turn a #2 into? Move Kiwi back to DE to be the #3 rotating DE, Goff should be cheap to resign and suddenly there are plenty of LBs.

You guys are hilarious with Jacobs. Over the past 2 years he’s been the most productive and least injured back on the team. His stat line this year is near identical to Bradshaw’s so I’m not getting the “lack of production” thing. Who is going to play when Bradshaw gets run into the ground by the coaching staff and breaks his feet again? Personally I hope they rework his deal and keep them both. His age probably dictates that he wouldn’t get 4+ million on the market. That combined with the fact that I doubt he really wants to leave the Giants (maybe make one more run at a title and retire?), and it seems like it’d be pretty easy to do. Split the carries better so they can use Bradshaw as their 3rd down back instead of DJ Ware, since Bradshaw fits that role so well.

No matter what they decide to do, they ought to be starting next year in better shape than they were at any point this year. Not a bad time to be a fan.

Jacobs probably deserves to be back

but its his contract and also the style the Giants seem to want to go to. He even said that the final drive on the SB he ’didn’t know what Eli was like in the huddle, cuz the style of ball they were playing wasn’t him’.

If they brought him back I wouldn’t be surprised. But also if they went in another direction I wouldn’t be surprised either.

Agree on Ham

I think Jacobs’ style of play — when he runs straight up, when he tries to go lateral instead of smashing himself a hole to get the first down, etc — makes him seem less reliable than Bradshaw. If you put Bradshaw in, unless he’s stuffed in the backfield, he usually picks something up.

I’d love to see us keep Osi. I think we will unless we can get a first round pick.
Jacobs is probably gone unless he re-works the heck out of his contract.
Manningham is gone. Someone is going to blow him away with a massive deal, and he’ll have no choice but to take it.
I think Mitch Petrus is ready to start, and I’m excited to see him do so.

Predictions

1. Brandon Jacobs will be able to get more money somewhere else than the Giants are willing to pay him
2. Mario Manningham will be offered more money somewhere else than the Giants are able to pay him
3. Osi will be back, because no one will be willing to pay for a pass rusher who is consistently hurt 50% of the year
4. McKenzie will unfortunately be gone, most likely retired
5. The Giants will attempt to solve the Wide Receiver and Running Back issues in the draft
6. The Giants will attempt to solve the Tight End and Offensive Line issues through free agency

Here is what I got

1. I love Osi. I am not reasonable when it comes to him. Find a way to pay the guy and keep him. 3 year contract, tons of incentives. Decent money and move on.

2. The RB position is a mess. Jacobs, sadly, is getting old and the Giants need to move on. Bradshaw is chronically injured and the Giants need somebody that can take the bulk of the carries. They need a young guy drafted in the first 3 rounds, that can carry the ball 200 times with Bradshaw getting 150-200 carries this year.

3. TE should be a priority since the Giants don’t run 4 WR sets often. The TE is always on the field and the Giants should sign or draft top shelf talent.

4. The offensive line is old and needs work. Some of the young guys on the team now look ok, but not great. If they were great they would have played more this season. They need to step up big time.

5. Manningham will not be back. He is to good to be the 3rd WR for a team that loves traditional offensive sets.

Agreed...

Never have lived through the Carson, LT era…when we ate TEs, RBs, and QBs for lunch. Yes, I know JPP eats QBs for breakfast, etc., but he went out on pass coverage in the Super Bowl (Why??), Brady had all the time in the world, and eventually the pass went to his area. Perhaps the young LBs will get better, but bring in an LB early (2nd round, the kid from NC State), and see what happens!

I like the potential of our LBs

if we get Goff back, we got LBs who can play the run, pass, and rush the passer. Unfortunately, most of them can’t really do all three.

Boley Williams and Goff are a solid trio

this is a decent year for LBeebles, so if someone like Zach Brown or Luke Kuechly falls to the 32nd pick, why not. But other then that, like every single year, drafting an El Boober isn’t going to put us over the top.

yeah, i think FA should probably be more of the discussion around here as opposed to Draft

Giants have a lot of FAs, some will be back some won’t, but they can also go out and sign some guys.

I remember 2 years ago i was jumping up and down for Earl Thomas b/c the Giants Safeties sucked, but they signed Rolle so the biggest need kinda just became not the biggest need anymore.

I think that’s what will happen w/ the TE position as well.

and I don’t really think you can address WR, RB, or even CB in the Draft….until FA comes and goes.

Jacobs

I’ve never been shy of how much I like Jacobs but I still think this needs to be said. Everyone talks about how terrible Jacobs was this year stats wise, but he had just about the same yards per carry as AB did in regular season, actually had more than AB did in post season, had more yards per catch that AB did this season, and proved that he can be a beast in run blocking too (and made less money than AB while doin so). Most importantly, I think Jacobs adds more than just his play to this team. He’s the guy who gets the players pumped up on offense (and sometimes on defense I’m convinced). The problem this year was not Jacobs or AB, it was the line, and the only explanation I can come up with for people blaming Jacobs and not AB is just that they do not like Jacobs.

Side note, I do not want to dump AB either, I think having 2 good RBs is more important than people want to admit.

I'd say only Porky Glenn is the only one that has a shot of happening

Hillis blows, he’s a one year wonder and a panzy, his contract holdup stuff makes anything Osi’s ever done make him seem like a mute.

Gonzalez would be nice, but I doubt we’re giving up a pick.

And I highly doubt we’re starting Brewer at RT. He looked terrible in the preseason and wasn’t even allowed on the FG team he was so bad. That doesn’t mean he’s a bust but it means he’s probably at least 2013 before he’s a thought to start. Look for a veteran, either FA or Diehl ,or maybe someone like Porky Glenn, who’s probably better off at RT anyway.

First two are awful choices.

Gonzalez is going to want a ton of money, no matter what. And he deserves it. Hillis is Jacobs, except hurt more, and will want more money cuz he was the starter and got the bulk of the carries. Why pay Hillis more money for Jacobs production? Just keep Jacobs and try to rework his deal to a more reasonable amount. If we don’t get Lewis as a FA TE, then our starting TE will most likely be coming from the draft.

TE

The reason the Giants might give more value to the TE position when ranking BPA in the draft is because the current state of affairs in the NFL has elevated the importance of the TE.

With the rules shifts towards the passing game, more teams are playing defenses that put extra defensive backs on the field. By being able to field a TE who is big, strong and fast, it creates very big match-up problems for those defenses.

Look at it this way, the Patriots very smartly set up their defense to make it hard for Eli to find either Nicks or Cruz running with a lot of space. Just imagine what would have happened if the Giants were running a big, skilled tight end out there instead of Pascoe. SOMEBODY was going to be open, whether it was the TE or Nicks or Cruz.

Having said all that, I think that all that means is that the Giants will still take the BPA in the draft, but that TE is going to get a bump in the “position” rankings. It still won’t be +100 for Defensive Line on the Giants draft board, but maybe it will be up from -20 to 0 or something.

Bass was brought in to start, and payed to start.

Boothe is the perfect 6th lineman, not starter. Brewer isn’t ready, so unless they bring back Deihl at RT, they will most likely bring in a veteran RT to hold down the spot till Brewer is ready, as well as draft a RT in the mid rounds who can possibly push for the spot. To me LG is the tough spot to nail down what they’ll do. I’m not convinced that Petrus is read to be a 16 game starter, and I like him, just not sure. I could see us signing a RT is FA, maybe a guard, as well as drafting a guard and RT in the draft.

my thoughts

1. ham was great, showed up in quite a few 4Q clutch situations, including TDs, but he suffered from too many dropsies during the season. Also, he was#3, which meant teams were trying to take away Nicks, Cruz & let ham beat them…so many single coverage situations. so, while he has been wonderful for NYG…..if he wants too much money, let him go.
2. RB is a key priority (draft, or FA)…KG doesnt do too much with TE setups, but RB is key for our schemes (running, blocking & recieveing out of backfield). Even if Jacobs accepts rookie minimum, he should not be brought bac….bcos he eats up a roster spot. How many times have Giant fans felt that 3rd & 10 is no problem, but 3rd & inches, or 3rd is 1 is a hold your breath moment. Jacobs has lost it…..Bradshaw, injured & does not seem to be the primary load carrier. And we have seen enough of Ware. Need a new bull
3. If Osi trade gets 2nd round or better…go for it, otherwise make him play out his last year, and collect 3rd rounder next year
4. Sign TT, Goff, Weatherford
5. O-line : address in draft, FA (Petrus, Brewer may need more brewing, dont appear to be answer to Karim-Diehl problems)
6. Linebacker wouldd be nice in draft, but we will probably end up drafting more DEs
7. Yeah, & decent TE would be nice, Eli will get him the ball

We should have gotten a 3rd for Barry Cofield

But our signing of David Baas negates that. We should get a 5th for Boss. We should get a 7th for Smith.

So an extra 5th and 7th seems likely.

I really think that if Ham leaves

JJ is gonna be nasty as the 3rd WR. He is built for the slot, nice size, speed, a full offseason to learn the offense… ohh and he has Eli F*CKIN Manning throwing to him.

I heard someone say today that they should get Plax back if Ham leaves because JJ is no good. Now that is not a fair thing to say. What we have learned from Giant receivers and the KG offense, it is almost better to be “redshirted” for a year to learn the system.

Examples are Ham in ’08, Cruz in ’10 (then IRed with a so so injury), Ballard in ’10 (as a practice squad guy). So its unfair to judge him when he does not even play (but he is looking much better as a return guy). If he gets a chance to be #3 and fails, then the negative opinion on him will be fair.

Diehl numbers are funky

They don’t add up because he gets an extra $750k or $1mm if he plays LT. The big figure ($31.5 over 6) probably assumed he would earn those bonuses, but even with the bonuses the base salaries don’t match the total contract value. iI looks like he doesn’t have unamortized signing bonus, so whatever his salary is, that’s what he costs, and it doesn’t cost anything to cut him.

yeah if you remember that throw from Eli

that Barden plucked out of the air in front of a defender, I think Barden could be really good for us next year. But somewhere I heard his blocking was pretty lackluster…

by giantsnetsmets on Feb 9, 2012 1:06 PM EST up reply actions  

I am one of the Barden Faithful

He seemed to take a step forward this year, a very very small step… but then came Revis.

I like him a lot, just hope he figures out how to do what is asked of him.

i know that

obviously it was Gilbride, but i had to reference JR b/c he’s the one who admitted it.

I’m sure KG would have never admitted that in a million years, prolly would just changed the subject to how Barden sucks b/c that bum Revis shut him down.

Sound FX quotes

Brady about throwing past JPP: "It’s like throwing in a forest – those guys’ arms."

Wilfork and a ref talking about the holding call on Boothe later in the game
Wilfork: "No, that was a bad call."
Paganelli: "Why didn’t you tell me that before I threw it?"
Wilfork: "Because for the ones you guys missed, I deserve one."

Pats radio guy after Brady’s TD pass to Hernandez: “Anybody still wanna take Eli?”

Lead ref after Welker’s drop: “Oh, that was the game.”

Belichick to his defense before the final drive when Manningham went off:
“This is still a Cruz and Nicks game. I know we’re right on them. It’s tight but those are the guys. Make them go to Manningham. Make them go to Pascoe.”

Unless MM doesn't get a lot of offers

then he has to go. Thanks for the catch but Victor and Nicks needs to get paid too in the near future. Sorry bro.

I like Osi but he’s too expensive. No more of this first round or bust talks, take a second for him.

Jacobs still has some left in the tank (his YPC was .01 lower than Bradshaw’s) but it’s too much money. It sucks after a Super Bowl winning year but he needs to take less money or leave.

Dwayne Allen round one, problem solved.

The offensive line deserves FULL attention. Bye, bye Kareem. It’s been fun but you suck now. Let Boothe and Petrus battle for LG. Draft a lineman early, and pray Diehl doesn’t suck at RT. Or we draft a center and move Baas back to his original position. Reese has to fix this group, their play was pathetic.

The reason

he didn’t squawk when he came back from the ankle issues were:

A) It was painfully obvious how well the new “Freak” was playing
B) He probably feels this was his last go around here, just my opinion. I am not saying I want him gone, saying he most definitely
be happy here as a situational player, so as an organization,
move on, that’s it.

I suppose. But I still maintain not getting rid of him for a 3rd rounder or lower.

He would snag us a 3rd round compensatory pick, so I’d rather have his production for the next year and the comp pick than just pick up a marginally higher 3rd rounder instead.

Key injured:
Defense: Austin, Thomas, Jones, Beatty, Goff, Johnson, Sintim, Tryon
Offense: Ballard, Beckum, Hixon, Andrews,

Key gimps:
Baas, Tuck, Barden, Nicks (shoulder),

2. It would be great to get a year-end recap on how Giants’ coaches evaluate the rookies: Prince, Hyno, Herzlich, Paysinger, Jernigan, Jones, Sash, Brewer, J-Will (and expectations). That seems like a pretty large group that made impacts.

You all do realize

Saying Osi doesn’t deserve top money for his position on this team is stupid. He deserves top money for his production. The Giants are not in the SB without Osi. Osi’s strip sack of Rodgers in the NFC Championship game helped the Giants get to the SB. There are few DEs in the Nfl with better production then Osi.

He also can probably earn as much over time with the Giants as going to a bad team

They’ll pay him, toss him out without any other studs nearby, he’ll get tripled and chopped and his legs will get ground up, then they’ll cut him

This is the most reasonable thing I have seen here. Give Osi a 3 year contract for 18ish mil. Maybe it can be lower with incentives for playing games, getting sacks, forcing fumbles and things like that. Give him money, make him happy, win games.

Osi's worth more than we owe him. but less than he thinks he's worth.

Hence the conflict. I think they will put a last and best offer on the table and hopefully Osi will realize he’s not getting any more elsewhere.

by andiamo708 on Feb 9, 2012 3:27 PM EST up reply actions  

Easiest way to put it is Ballard blocking skillz with top end TE production in the receiving department.

Prototypical size, good speed (I’d expect at least a 4.6 at the combine) and he was a strong in-line blocker before Clemson used him in more receiving sets. He was a mismatch a lot of the time, especially in the red zone. Strong body control….is a hands catcher that can box out defenders and catch the ball at the highest point. Also, a more polished route runner than most.

I realize this is a highlight video, but it illustrates everything that I like about him (no duh lol)….I’ve see 4 or so Clemson games, looking more on the defensive side with Branch and Thompson, but he stood out on offense. When other people started talking about him, it confirmed what I saw.

The franchise tag

Applies to someone who could otherwise be a FA, but you offer him a one year deal worth the average of the top five players at his position. The Giants only have a few players who might merit such a deal (Eli, Nicks?, JPP, Tuck) and all are under contract for 2012.

The only remote possibility would be Steve Weatherford, but I think if they are willing to pay him top punter money they will want him on a long-term deal.

by JaxGmenfan90 on Feb 9, 2012 3:40 PM EST reply actions  

What I would do

1. Cut David Diehl. He’s terrible at any position, and he’s not cheap.
2. Cut Antrel Rolle. Whiny, arrogant, and more importantly, he can’t cover to save his life. You could definitely get an upgrade cheaper.
3. Let Jacobs go. His personality has become really toxic, he’s 30 and 4 million is a lot to pay for a boulder who averages under 4 YPC.
4. Resign TT and let Ross go. TT is just a better player
5. Draft Luke Kuechly to become our middle LB. Yes, we actually need to improve our linebackers (Cue the OMGZ LBBZZ)
6.Find a dynamic TE to replace Ballard. I don’t know what TEs are in the draft, but a good one should be available in the 2nd round.
7. Try to resign Super Mario, but if not, bring back a certain traitor who thought he would be better off with the LOLZDream Team.
8. Find upgrades to O-line in draft or FA. Priority

There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only BLUE WALLS.

Hmm

1) I think you cut him if he isn’t willing to take a moderate paycut. We need him at RT.
2) Disagree, Rolle played well once he was allowed to play actual safety. Don’t think we could find an upgrade that’s cheaper
3) Agreed. I don’t think Jacobs’ salary is worth his production
4) Agree. Keep Ross if he’s cheap obviously.
5) He most likely won’t be available, but if he is, no arguments from me
6) We’ll have to have a new TE. Reese said he expects both Beckum and Ballard to land on PUP. A good TE might not be available by the end of the 2nd.
7) Rather have a speed guy than Benesteve Smarnold. Cruz belongs in the slot.
8) Yes. We need a new RT. An upgrade to LG may be necessary as well.

Rolle played out of position most of the year. And he’s still under contract and if we get TT back he goes back to safety (Natural Position)

Diehl… well I cant really disagree with that, but looked decent during SB not vs SF.

Luke Kuechly wont fall to 32, if he does he seems like a good core player.

I know people think that I may not like the guy b/c he's outspoken

I could care less how much he talks. heck, i defend Jacobs to the death for his comments and have even supported a lot of Osi’s stuff over the years, but Rolle takes it too far…. sometimes.

I really wish he would have never done like maybe 2 or 3 interviews the past 2 years. everything else is fine. But the stuff on the radio about TC and Rex Ryan w/ KP. and than the thing about Fewell not making him a play maker. Yeah, we all knew that was the case, and we killed Fewell for it, but Rolle said earlier in the season he’d play anywhere, do anything, team first, blah blah blah. But when the going got tough…it was Fewell’s fault, and he took it public. Or he was inferring that it was Websters fault on the Dez TD. C’mon.

I like a guy who talks. We all loved Stray. But we all kinda had a falling out w/ Tiki b/c of what he said, and how he said it.

I just think like, if we were talking hypothetically: if Rolle was a ex-giant, and said those things about TC or said those things about Fewell, it would NOT be well received by the Giant Community at all.

if the guy is ALL IN, and even if the Giants lose 3 games next year in a row, and Rolle doesn’t get mad, or out anyone or blame anyone. Hell yeah.

the guy is a great teammate, in spite of putting his foot in his mouth.

I can see a lot of the players rally around him. They do. They FAs love him (Canty, Bernard, Grant). Kiwi loves him. Hell, they all love him.

Rolle has more guaranteed money coming plus unamortized bonus

In 2012 he’s costiing us $7-$9MM vs the cap whether he plays for us or not.

If we pay himt the rest of his guaranteed this year In 2013, he’s a $7mm salary but a $2mm hit if we cut him, so if he doesn’t restructure this year, he’s likely gone next year. However we still owe him a lot of cash, so he’s got the hammer on us.

i want bbv guys opinon on something

weve pilfered dallas’s free agents before (chris canty), and i think we should again. We all know about our TE situation and one player i want the giants to take a look at is Martellus Bennett. He is a very talented TE physically in terms of size (six foot six) and 270 pounds-just like ballard. He ran a 4.68 and a 4.62-faster than Ballard. He was highly regarded out of college and has a world of talent and he has expierence as he has been in the nfl for 4 season. Not to mention the fact he is one of the great blocking TE in the nfl. he fits out bill as a big strong te and can do a lot of other stuff. he will not break the bank and can be quite cheap and cost effective. this is a guy if i were jerry reese i would be really agressive in pursing. seems liek the perfect fit. what do you guys think ??/

Get the best available talent when you it’s your time to pick.

On who to keep. Why not try to give Osi a 2-3 year extension. If he’s alright sticking around then …why not try if the money is right. Maybe he’s come down to earth. maybe….

I like keeping Petrus, Diehl and McKenzie …but possibly dropping Diehl if we get a OT in the draft. I would still look to get a MLB but if our league has turned into a passing one then why not another OLB?

I think Baas was a nice pickup but I’d like to see a 2nd round pick used there. Snee really had a hard time this year and that is a concern.

what are the giants to do..my thoughts...

this article tends not to discuss FA Terrell Thomas, Ross, Rocky Bernard..so here’s my comments on those guys and others:

As much as I love what Manningham has brought to this team and his key catches, his at times poor route running and lack of concentration are too frustrating for starters money – esp. if it means paying him or Cruz (to an extension); plus i like the idea
of bringing back Smith, or giving Barden his shot as a #3, plus there’s still Hixon (if his knee heals).
Ross is decent but not worth big money, if you can bring him back without a big pay do it, but if you have to choose between him and Thomas, PAY THOMAS! he was our best CB coming into this season, plus he’s younger then Ross (not by much but still younger); and def’n a much better coverage defender. Plus we still got Michael Coe, Witherspoon (both hurt during the season) and Prince.
Simply put thx for the good years Kareem, but its time to change up the OLine and go with youth and let them grow; I’d like to see what Petrus, Boothe could do – Diehel, Beatty, Baas, Snee, Petrus starting with Andrews, Ugoh providing depth, maybe draft an
Oline man in the the 2nd/3rd rd, or through FA.\
Bring back the machine – Weatherford, he makes me not miss Feagles..and he’s still so young!! what a season he had, dropping balls inside the 20 with some serious consistency and continuing to punt us out of trouble!
As for DT, thx Rocky but man your way overpaid, and the way Linval played this season and with Miles Austin (hopefully staying healthy) we got some great depth and youth rolled into 1.

by DTrain78 on Feb 9, 2012 9:59 PM EST reply actions  

ok Disagree with most of the points

Agree on Oline—-
TT will not be better than Ross this year.It takes 2 years to healthy
Weatherford is a shoe in.
Rocky took a pay cut this year and he is playing for lot lesser money than he was supposed to get.
and Miles Austin plays for Cowboys….I know I know…Marvin Austin has to be prove he is better now he is two years out of football.
Ham will be missed big time when he leaves….Barden cudnt do anything against Jets not even cromartie. My best guess is its either Dan de palma or JJ.

Beatty

OLine play got much better once Diehl was back at T. Not nearly as excited as I was last offseason.

by AHill on Feb 9, 2012 10:58 PM EST reply actions  

Focus on Mario and Osi

Weatherford ain’t going anywhere, he loves rubbing it in Westphal’s face too much to leave NY.

And the rest of this will take care of itself, ain’t worried about the secondary (Prince will be fine) the Rb’s (Jacobs or no they didn’t contribute heavily this year and probably won’t next year) TE’s (there will be something done in FA or the draft) or the Oline (bye bye Mac, and IMO Diehl hello Beatty Petrus Brewer and a Free Agent. That’s why we have Reese, he’ll have all the holes patched up good enough to start the season.

Moneys saved should be used on the top priorities Osi, and Manningham. It’d be heartbreaking to loose either of them.
