I literally just learned that this thread existed to predict the schedule.

 

Why on earth would that be interesting?

 

Anyway.

 

Go, team.

What the **** did you think it was for ?

Bobby Wagner on Kay Adams show this morning:

 

 

Let’s be honest, that’s great. Couple of great years left in Wagner, he fancies the ride.

Trade for a WR seems like a complete no brainer. 

Still time for a significant move at WR

I'd guess so.  He's an engima to me as far as fitting this regime.  In one sense he fits as an extra Wr because he's good at special teams and is a good run blocker.  In another sense he doesn't fit at all because he's so not physical at the catch point -- he's awful in contested catch situations. 

 

 

With Kingsbury at AZ by the looks of it.

Our WR room blows big time. Possibly league worst. Samuels was close to being the best one last year and he's gone. TMac is legit, but that's it. Dotson sucked big time last year. He's not cemented in as WR2. Any and every WR in camp has a shot at being a starter.

Trading or acquiring a quality vet must still be on the offseason to do list IMO.

Why can’t Coleman be our RT?

Well he can I suppose. A couple of posts back you said Lucas was best suited at RT so Coleman at RT wasn’t a previous suggestion of yours. Maybe I missed that. Either way, yep they could be our starting OT tandem one way or the other.

Really feels like a stud pick.

I’d argue RT is the primary issue. Lucas can play RT and be an improvement to that side of the field. But we have no LT solution so he has to play there.

 

I actually think Lucas is best suited at RT.

I think both OT spots are an issue. The discussion point was specifically the merits of Coleman starting at LT. Different conversation.

Not much of an issue to me. I guess if he was fully healthy he’d have gone by pick 25. We have depth to accommodate this.

I’m talking more about the other side. 
 

Id accept occasional brick wall and occasional loosely fashioned chain-link for Lucas.

Yeah this debate was more on Coleman at LT. 
 

RT, another issue,

But that's what we are being told by Keim et al that the FO was thinking when drafting him...

Yep.

And the FO had a specific plan to prioritise the IOL first. I believe the phrase was to build from the inside out.

Clearly raw.

However, also clearly about as focused and professional as you would get from a rookie. It’s in the blood.

In an interview, he comes off as polished and mature as Terry does.

Agree. That’s a massive sign of encouragement for me.

Extension incoming in 3…..2…….1….

Tress Way is an absolute stud. What a pro. Love him.

I tend to think he was the pick because of ceiling and versatility (more outs). I don't think it was that simple. When you need to replace your OL Bench, and multiple starters, versatility like Coleman's probably trumps straight OT's who can't do anything else especially when they have ceilings as high as him. 

I think he’s was picked to start LT

Most likely Hurney/Mayhew this is the season to revamp the scouting department. 

Mayhew is a Peters buddy. He will stick unless we find him a ‘better’ gig.

Playing Coleman at tackle this year is setting him up for failure.  His best shot at holding his own for us is at LG.

We drafted Coleman to play LT and brought a superbowl winner in to play LG. That’s the plan.

Nabers is the dummy who couldn't keep his mouth shut and oddly felt compelled to tell people. Might be an early sign as some have said during the process that Nabers is a bit of a personality and not always in a good way.  

 

You can tell in the interview that Daniels was reluctant to talk about it but he's too willing in these interviews to please the interviewer, he will learn not to be that level of a pleaser in the future I assume.

 

 

 

Only good thing to me about the whole thing is while I accede Nabers is a big time talent.  I've also heard he is a bit of a headcase.  Him setting this issue afire is maybe an early sign that the Giants have a player that isn't the easiest dude to deal with.

Post draft interviews demonstrated that, doesn’t look entirely wired up right IMO 😂

That said, great talent. Could go either way that one…

Edit -

and Daniels needs to learn the pro ropes fast…

Whitt said he was a big fan of Forbes pre 2023 draft.

I really wish people would actually read comments and absorb what posters are saying instead of responding to a straw man.

It good to see you are feeling better and back to your normal self

Nah.

 

They will certainly cut Forbes if he doesn't show advancement in the offseason, training camp and preseason workouts.

 

Keep in mind, this new regime didn't choose him or hire him. So they have no attachment to him.

 

Mathis better start looking over his shoulder, as Newton is coming in with a lot of hype.

 

If that hype turns out to be reality,  Mathis may be changing his address too.

 

 

They won’t cut Forbes. He’s get traded at worst.

He looks like someone people are going to over think and get caught up in the measurables / testing numbers.

 

Doesn’t he just looks like a very productive player in the making. He’s going to make yards and be a first down machine.

 

Can’t lie, I’m seeing some Chris Cooley there. Get him in.

Yep the Cooley comp was my first take. Love the Sinnott pick.

We’ll have options to get a veteran tackle, if we decide we need one. Coleman is absolutely getting a look in camp first.

Randal or Mantana? That's the true debate.

@Koolblue13 really has you by not changing that doesn’t he
