If we had a home playoff game this weekend the temp might be zero.
Everything happens for a reason. Things to be excited about: Free Agency.
“It’s a big man’s game, it’s a tough man’s game, it starts up front,” Gettleman said.
He also indicated that he’d prefer to have that situation stabilized before the Giants get to the draft in April.<--*******
“The whole purpose of free agency is to set up your draft,” he said. “In an ideal world you never go into the draft saying, ‘I’ve got to have a . . . ’ whatever that ‘a’ is. You don’t want to be in that spot. Now you’re shopping hungry.”
So the Giants will be spending money in free agency?
“We’ll use free agency,” he said. “There’s always the trade route.<--- Eli Apple***** There’s always the waiver wires. You have to do your film work. It’s not pretty, it’s not easy, but you have to get it done.”
Aside from a number of big DT's and DE's and LB's I imagine Gentleman has his eye on one or two Offensive tackles who is available???
I have not seen a list but I have heard the name Nate Solder from a few sources... I have another idea... Bring in Nate but also have a look at Jonathan Cooper. You remember him a few drafts ago??? He flopped and re emerged with Dallas and I happened to do a few deep dives into Dallas film for some ghost writing I was doing & Cooper really stood out. Obviously he was trying extra hard but it's hard to deny this cat can move and he can be a very good NFL lineman if he choses to be so.
So there are two right there and we draft my guard and I'll go into more reasons later, because I have a pretty good system and it includes some inputs others don't use for sure. But since we know the following A) GettlemaN BELIEVES IN SETTING UP HIS DRAFT BY FREE AGENCY... Then we can all be pretty 100% sure a left tackle is coming our way!!!!!
For sure!
The Giants’ interview with former Broncos associate head coach Eric Studesville scheduled for Thursday was postponed due to the snowstorm that hit the area. It will be rescheduled for early next week . . . The Giants plan to be in Foxborough on Friday to interview both Patriots coordinators, Josh McDaniels and Matt Patricia, for their head coaching vacancy.<--****
Oh boy!!!! You guys know where I stand-- I like Patricia. I don't dislike McDaniels and obviously the QB situation might call for McDaniels, but I still favor Matt.
Then they are scheduled to be in Minnesota on Saturday to meet with Vikings offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur before going to Philadelphia on Sunday to interview Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz. They are expected to interview Panthers defensive coordinator Steve Wilks next week.
Folks this is a pretty A+ group we can be excited about our new coach- who do you think it will be? ~stoney
