For the right price, I would take Scandrick or DRC. Same with Nelson, Cobb or Marshall.

Bryant is too much headache and too expensive, Quinn I suspect will get a bigger contract that he deserves, Austin really doesn't seem very good, Avril has an injury that makes him a big risk, Sitton/Veldheer/Iupati I wouldn't be against but I suspect they will end up being price prohibitive. This draft is strong at OG, so I lean towards drafting rather than signing.

I know I'm in the minority with this but I would really vet and have a long sit down with Eli Apple and think about signing him.

The Giants locker room overall was a mess and he had alot going on but still has a load of talent. I think we have enough leadership to really support him and get him back on track

But from a lot of accounts Apple WAS the mess.

 DRC is still worth a roster spot, Scandrick is not IMO. 

He won't be cut but I talked about moving a 6/7 rounder for Su'a Cravens to improve safety depth and help 

Doesn't he contemplate retiring and leaving football behind like every other day?

I mean, I get it I'm not hating on the guy. There's a lot to consider there and if you don't have a true passion for the game and you've already pocketed some good money then maybe the risks aren't worth it for you. But, would I trade anything for him? Nope.

Yeah I'm usually in the camp that if you have questions about playing then you don't need to be on the field. 

He tried to come back but then the redskins just told him to take the season.  In recent years only 6/7 rounders that have worked out are Harrison(with another team) and maybe armah. So I'd rather move it for a 2nd round safety and see what happens then draft players who the odds are stacked against them to even make the team

Given that Tavon Austin did very little last year and his price could possibly be quite low I would take a chance on him if the deal is really friendly.  He'll never be a high volume pass catcher but he can still make plays.

hes still going to demand 3.5-5 million, not worth it

I see this logic, but I think Samuel is developing in that role.  He is the type of value we need to look for though...

I'm sure he was part of it but Apple doesn't play offense and the Gaints was just trash in general after MaGoo took over.

 

A long conversation would be had and he would have to earn his roster spot but I would talk to him to see where his head is at.

      I really like the way this team is trending. Morgan and Canales rookie campaign saw them do some questionable picks but, they also did some really good things. Especially addressing the offensive line.  Young had such a disastrous rookie season where his confidence was nowhere to be seen.  You can attribute part of this to a terrible offensive line.  So, we focused on the O-line.   We then brought in several defensive free agents that were supposed to compliment Brown.  Once Brown went down those players could not hold the line.  2025 we focused on defense in Free Agency and brought in several good players.  We then added more talent in the draft.  I think we have competition in several areas where Vets are not guaranteed to be starters.  Our offensive line is pretty set with some good backups.  Our defensive line is going to be a war for who comes out to be the starters.  All in All, we are leaps and bounds much better than 2023 roster.  Canales made some rookie head coach mistakes but grew as the season progressed.  He got our QB, who was starting to look like a huge bust, playing with confidence and poise.  Now it appears Young is moving upwards.  Maybe he is a QB whisperer.  After Young started to play better our offense was fun to watch.  Morgan knows football and knows what he wants in his players.  It appears to me that not only are these players he's drafted really good and got great value for them, but they are also high motor, intense players. Our defense, in the past, was always the key to our success.  I think Morgan is building a great defense. I know it is too soon to tell but I believe we may have a tandem that will be around a long time.  It would be nice to see Morgan/Canales be in the same class as Lynch/Shanahan and Beane/McDermott.   I know many Huddlers will overreact, but I truly believe we have a tandem that will be around a long time. TIME WILL TELL. Go Panthers
