Still some studs on board

At Safety

Gardner Johnson was projected the top safety by some people and mostbif not all mocks had him going late 1st early 2nd

Hooker was projected early 3rd.  Iowa has produced some good DBs as of late.  His biggest knock was people questioned his athletic ability but posted a sub 4.5 at the combine

Dieonte Thompson at one point earoy this year was projected a top 10 pick and then his stock topk a hit.  Really had a terrible national championship game.  Real raw, young, shouldve returned a year.  Kinda reminds me of Trai Turner in a sense coming out

Hakeem Butler, Big Freak WR who most had going late 1st early 2nd.

Kelvin Harmon and Riley Ridley still stiiting there, 2 solid possession WRs

 

Christian Miller, edge rusher, who some had penciled to us is the 2nd or 3rd is still on the board

Charles Omenihu, big Freak 3-4 DE who had a dominat senior bowl and most thought would go 2nd.  Reminds me a lot of Calais Campbell

Renell Wren, Big Power Athletic DT still on the board.  Didnt see him falling past the middle of the 3rd

https://www.nfl.com/prospects/renell -wren?id=32195752-4542-2041-ca80-11bac75769dc

 

Amani Oruwariye- Big Freak CB, who most had in the 1st or early 2nd.  No one saw him falling out of the 2nd

Hakeem Butler would make sense, big body replacement for Funchess. Then we can cut Torrey Smith and save $5 million. 

Giants Pick ahead of us

 

Id be shocked to see Gettleman pass on Hakeem knowing Gettlemans history of WRs

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
