Looks like we have 6 open roster spots to be filled before training camp after the draft and UDFAs. I'd bet we pick up a couple of the guys being released post-draft and sign a few of the tryout guys.

One of these QBs we keep bringing in year after year has to eventually stick.  DA can't play forever, and they aren't going to stick with Webb back there given his multi-faceted role.

I'm assuming that this is just a camp arm...

DA just signed an extension last year.  He's still got 2 years (2016 & 2017 under contract)

Agree. I've been a little surprised they don't keep one on the practice squad all the time, just to develop and have someone who knows your system.

I would generally agree, but Getts has definitively stated that he doesn't bring anyone to camp that he's not seriously considering.  I take that with a grain of salt, of course.  Obviously we don't want a journeyman camp arm, but if we're not seriously considering these prospects, then we need to bring in some QBs that can push DA and Webb.  Just wishful thinking, is all.

Missed out on Mike Rose from NC State.. Giants front office looking good so far. Carolina..? Eh.

 

6'6 D End who ran track, 4.5 insanely athletic. Local guy. From Greenville SC. NC State must be too big... If he went to Jacksonville State or san jose community college he might be wearing black n blue

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
