Quietly I think the Giants saw a glaring need at CB

They traded up to get Banks, and gave that Leonard Johnson guy a 3 year deal which makes me think they really like him.

Considering they got a bunch of nobodies playing at a playoff level. I am optimistic that with a couple guys they actually want, we will be much improved at that position.

Robinson looked suspect in preseason ..then the small sample size in the season he actually looked OK..... I actually hope he can be our slot corner

Anyone but Holmes

I busted my ass for 4 days to make this board the best draft experience for Giants fans.  Is this (and other posts complaining about various perceived grievances) really the best you can contribute?  The best way to keep this forum the home of the best informed Giants fan isn't through complaining about the posts of others, it's about contributing quality content

No one and certainly not me could be unaware and unappreciative of your efforts and achievements, Rich,

But that shouldn't rule out other views which may show another side which encourage more
reflection and balance among the casual or more impressionable; or even contrarian readers.

While this is meant as a Forum of the Best Informed Giants Fans, there are vastly more who simply visit to obtain all sides of an issue not just a proprietary one, should that be what they expect, even though you do well to avoid it despite the input of others as few as 9 or 10 -including moi- who do most of the posting; some more even than you. And not always sensible or accurately and well-informed even allowing for bias and personal conceit.

No offense, but it certainly is a frequent cause of what some would regard as my cynicism. Having been born and raised in N.Y.C., it kinda goes with the territory. However, that is not to suggest that I am refractory given that I used to vote Republican and now loath and detest everything about it.

Cheers!

Yeah I was against him moving outside and hope either a move back to the slot or safety is in order.

I think his out burst when he played one game but didn't play the next like Tae crowder ruined any chances he had of significant playing time with this team.

It's no secret that the differentiator for many of these guys will be the ability to play STs.  Same goes for the guys looking to sneak into the WR room. Wouldn't surprise me to see a new face or two among safeties/LBs too

Larry,

What I have been learning (the hard way) is it's great to have and express your opinions about the Giants.  What is far less welcome is opinions on other people's opinions or other people in general if those views are negative.  In a way, it comes off as complaining or, worse, insulting.   Even complaining, one thing I have never heard someone utter in my half-century plus time on this planet is, "Boy, I wish I could hear more complaining"
