Tyrod Taylor is a New York Giant. I think Tyrod Taylor is a very solid football player.  He’s been around for a long time, has been the QB of a playoff team, and has even been to a Pro Bowl.  On the surface, this sounds like the perfect backup QB!  But I don’t think he is for the situation this …

The NFL Free Agency Legal Tampering window opened this morning. For the next two days, any player not on contract can talk to any team needing to fill holes in their roster. The Giants have many holes, but not much money to spend.  Even with the moves made so far by GM Joe Schoen, the Giants are still $4.5M over …

He’s Back for another year. Sterling Shepard has taken a pay cut to come back and play his 7th season for the New York Football Giants.  That makes him the longest tenured player on the team, and honestly, I’m thrilled to have him back.  Since Shepard was drafted in the 2nd round of the 2016 draft, the Giants have now had 5 …

Raise your hand if you thought a year ago we would be discussing the possibility of Mitch Trubisky starting at QB for the Giants? Yeah me neither.  But, here we are folks.  Trubisky has been linked to the Giants all offseason, and Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports reported today that at least one team in the backup QB market believes …

In today’s NFL, it is common practice to release talented players due to having to get under the salary cap.  But this wasn’t always the case.  The salary cap wasn’t implemented until 1994.  Before that teams would be able to hold on to their draft picks for much longer. When the 1993 season came to an end, it took only a …

Let the Cap Casualties Begin… The Giants began their quest to clear money today with the releases of Tight End Kyle Rudolph and Running Back Devontae Booker.  These were undoubtedly moves that had to be made.  Since Joe Schoen has taken the job as Giants GM, he has made it clear that there were going to be, “tough decisions”, when …

The NFL’s 2022 league year begins at 4:00 pm EDT on March 16th. That’s also the deadline for clubs to be at or under the 2022 salary cap of $208.2M. That’s also the start of free agency. The Giants are in the bottom five of all NFL teams with cap space.  GM Joe Schoen has already stated he believes the …

Throughout the offseason, I am going to be looking at former Giants that go under the radar as far as their legacy goes.  The first player I want to highlight in this series is Rodney Hampton. Hampton was the 24th pick in 1990 NFL draft out of Georgia.  He went on to be one of the best Giants of the decade, and …

What to do with Saquon Barkley? This is one of the main questions of the 2022 offseason.  To me, it really isn’t a difficult situation to figure out.  The Giants should absolutely look to trade their “star” running back.  I put star in quotations because if we’re being honest with ourselves, Saquon Barkley hasn’t been a star player since 2019.  …

As Giants Head Coach Brian Daboll puts the finishing touches on his coaching staff, one man, Thomas McGaughey, continues to survive as the Special Teams Coordinator (STC). This will be T-Mac’s third straight stint as STC for yet another new head coach. So, why is Coach McGaughey returning for his fifth consecutive season as STC? T-Mac has no prior connection …
