I don't see it. DeVito was only the full-time starter in three of his five collegiate seasons. Add to the fact he will be 26 years old in August. I don't expect him to be on the roster after this season. I wish we had gotten a QB in the latter rounds, but then again, we only had 6 picks. I will be keeping my eyes on Carsen Beck and Quinn Ewers this upcoming college season

I used OTC for the numbers elvis. I have them and Spotrac bookmarked. They both have pros and cons in terms of ease of use/clarity of data but sometimes one or other of them spots something the other misses.

It's been well reported they tried to get #3.

If the seller doesn't want to sell. There's nothing you can do. That's so simple.

If Tommy is the long term answer, we are asking the wrong question.

Every team has the same 90 guys going into camp.  The Giants seem to favor keeping all those still under contract from last season, including most of the PS, along with street free-agent signings after the season to fill out their 90 rather than going with big undrafted rookie classes.   It's a trend that seemed to start with Gettleman and continues under Schoen.

Quote from: MightyGiants on Today at 01:00:43 PMadd in the kicker from Rutgers and that's about it.  The Giants UDRFA class had only 9 slots.  Even before Schoen and Daboll, the Giants didn't seem to be into big UDRFA classes.

Thanks London, I feel better and defiantly more educated.....a poster pointed out this site as well. Tons of information (lots of it over my head), but still cool to look at.

Adding North Dakota State OT Jake Kubas: $270K guaranteed. That's the richest guarantee I've seen aside from Colorado State CB Chig Anusiem, who the Giants were interested in but he fetched $350K guaranteed from Washington.

A practice squad salary for the full season is $225K. The Giants guaranteed Kubas $240K in salary plus a $30K signing bonus. Strong indication that they expect him to at least land on their P-squad (although with offsets, they'd only have $45K in dead money if they cut him and he signs with another team's PS).

Bill mentioned this yesterday on the main forum.  From what I understand, this is sort of TV piracy for dummies.  The Superbox is essentially an overpriced android device that comes preloaded with what they call an unverified streaming service (a nice name, for they don't know if the programs are properly licensed).

The only real risk would be if the company gets sued and goes out of business (plus the sellers of the product face some risk, so they tend to be on the sleazy side).

You can actually download similar software to your computer or, say, a firestick that would do the same thing.

You can find all you need to know about this here:

https://www.firesticktricks.com/how-to-use-kodi.html

That website also discusses the Superbox, they are not fans


Thanks Rich. It seems like a lot of work to me. Perhaps I am too behind the times.
