Do you guys have a good fullback?

Hynoski would have been a good pickup for you guys.

I'm liking how your team is turning out this season though. I LOVE the Tate pickup... even if some Lions fans aren't particularly thrilled about it... not sure why you wouldn't be though.


If we don't keep both Connor & Hynoski on our roster we may release one on final cuts so you guys still may find yourself with one.


No we haven't used a fullback since Cory Schlesinger. It seems like Caldwell is going to be taking us back to those good ole smash mouth FB days, which I'd like. Hynoski seems to have decent hands for a FB and can lay some wood. I was hoping we would have got him because that's the type of FB we need. Being coached by Caldwell would have been even better seeing that he worked with Vonta Leach previously and Leach is one of the best FB's in the league at the moment.

I'm happy with the Tate signing. I was expecting us to try to get James Jones but Tate is fine too. I'm still excited to see how the draft will pan out. I'd like to see if we still go for a WR or just draft Gilbert. I'd still kinda like to see us draft Evans and address our secondary during the rest of FA and the other rounds of the draft. Megatron and Evans on the outside with Tate in the slot has the potential to be deadly. It'd all depends on how Tate performed in the slot and how Evans performed of course.

I still think you guys should sign Miles Austin.

Steve Smith would have been an OUTSTANDING signing....

Giants-Jets Tale of the Tape: Which team should Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie choose?





In one corner, wearing the green shorts are the Jets. In the other, donning blue are the Giants. They're in what feels like round 3 of a fight to get cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. So which one should win the battle? Here's our tale of the tape:

The team's pitch:

Giants: We tweeted we want you.
Jets: We cut your cousin...sorry!

Coaches:

Giants: Tom Coughlin has two Super Bowl rings.
Jets: Rex Ryan talks like he's won a couple.

Stadium:

Giants: Home games are at MetLife Stadium.
Jets: Quasi-home games in MetLife Stadium (hey, at least it's not called Giants Stadium anymore).

Practice facilities:

Giants: Come to East Rutherford, it's right near the stadium.
Jets: Good luck finding Florham Park.

Training camp facilities:

Giants: Come to East Rutherford, it's right near the stadium.
Jets: Have fun in Cortland, N.Y.

Quarterbacks:

Giants: Eli Manning throws a lot of picks in practice.
Jets: Then again, if Mark Sanchez stays...

Hall of Famers:

Giants: 29 (including Bill Parcells)
Jets: Eight (including Bill Parcells)

Memorabilia:

Giants: You didn't allegedly wear that jersey in the Super Bowl? Sign it anyway.
Jets: Who collects Jets stuff anyway?

Rodgers-Cromartie and the New York Giants agree to terms on 5 year deal. B)

Trying to restructure/reduce Kiwi's pay and trying to extend Eli and Rolle to make up for some cap space.

Our secondary :drool:

Now..sign a solid DT and DE and our defense is scary.
