Giants waived OL Mitch Petrus, who had a rough summer. They claimed OT D.J. Jones off waivers from the Dolphins. #nyg

Very surprising what happened to petrus... was very promising last season and looked atrocious in pre season/camp


Quote
The Giants claimed T D.J. Jones off waivers from the Philadelphia Eagles. He takes Petrus' spot. #NYG

Suck it Philly! haha... hopefully it turns out to be a good move and he can give us depth

David Wilson's goals for this season:


Quote
"Five yards a carry, at least 10 touchdowns, at least six 100-yard games, no sacks allowed on my behalf, no fumbles and at least a play of 20 yards."

Quote
"And there’s been a few times when I've achieved everything on that sheet," Wilson said. "Just having something written down, and knowing what you want to do, so you have a definition of success for yourself. You know what you are working for, instead of just going out there and playing."

Quote
"No, because I hold myself so strong to achieve those goals," said Wilson, drafted 32nd overall. "When everybody else knows, it’s just that much more that lets me know I've got to achieve it, and puts that much more pressure on me. And I kind of like that feeling."


Wilson had 28 carries for 131 yards in the preseason, a 4.7 yards per carry average. He didn't score or fumble, and his long run was of 26 yards. He started two games, while Bradshaw recovered from a hand injury.

Quote
"Now I know what to expect, so it’s not like butterflies, but it is more weight because it is a real game. But I think the nervousness is gone," Wilson said. "I heard it’s going to be a lot faster because it means a lot more. I know since it means a lot more, I’m going to be more pumped up, so I think it will balance out."

Garrett says Bennett is only "Complimentary"


Quote
Following a week 17 loss to the New York Giants, Dallas Cowboys tight end Martellus Bennett was already thinking ahead. As his team exited the field with their heads hung, Bennett approached quarterback Eli Manning to offer him congratulations … and to suggest the two might be playing together in 2012.

Bennett's foresight proved to be incredible as the Giants signed the free agent during the offseason.

No longer in the shadow of Jason Witten, Bennett now feels he can show the football world exactly what he's made of. And thus far, he's done that. Save for a rough game against the New England Patriots in week four of the preseason, Bennett has drawn nothing but praise from coaches and teammates, with Tom Coughlin going as far as calling Bennett a "vertical threat" – not the usual verbiage that describes one of the NFL's premiere blocking tight ends.

Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett disagrees, however. He maintains that, although solid, Bennett is nothing more than a complimentary player.

Quote
"Martellus is complementary; I think we played to his strengths. We felt like he was a very good run-blocker and a very good pass-protector, and when he got opportunities in the passing game, he generally did a very good job with those as well," Garrett

Marvin Austin is at practice and is wearing pads today.

Nicks is sitting out. MG speculates they’re just giving him a day off to rest his foot.

Quote
Amukamara running at practice and appears on track to play week #2.

Quote
Hosley running fine as well. Week #1 looks good for him.


Quote
For Dallas, Witten is not at practice.


Witten will not be playing in the opener, just makes it easier for us but gives Cowboy fans and excuse......

I think that headline is a little misleading based on what he actually said. Really frustrating player to watch on a consistent basis....giants should really consider bringing in Winslow.
