Big Blue Huddle / Re: Is Malik Nabers Qb Proof?
Last post by Doc16LT56 - Today at 12:48:11 PM
Quote from: Jclayton92 on Today at 09:46:37 AMI was watching some of the podcasts and heated and this was mentioned a few times.

Take the Qb out of it, no matter if it's Jones, Lock, or Devito will Nabers produce regardless of the Qb?

How much?

OROY?

Garrett Wilson went for 1042 yards despite having no one to throw him the ball. So is Nabers that talented that he'll get production no matter what?

The only 2 things holding me back from saying yes is the fact that our offense lacks the deep/intermediate routes that help production and that it seems like no matter what Slayton does his production is always capped at 700 and our 2nd wr at 500.

This is a good topic. I think the Garrett Wilson numbers represent a reasonable floor for Nabers with a bad QB situation. At least I hope that's the case.

Watching Wilson, the talent is undeniable. But he doesn't have the type of impact you want to see from an elite WR (no fault of his own).

I'm hoping Nabers's YAC production will elevate him to the next tier in terms of production and impact.

Initially, IMO he'll "improve" the production of the other WR's lined up with him more than hit home runs himself.

After he figures out the pro game and how/where he fits in (hopefully by game four) he'll start to show his stuff.

Only a super-blue-chip player will make much noise in the first four games, so I'm giving him some leeway.

Bob

PS. Don't get too pumped up if he looks great in the preseason... they'll try their best to make that happen but IMO it probably won't translate into the regular season for a while.

Quote from: MightyGiants on Today at 08:44:16 AMI am of two mindsets on Miller.

1)  I like his measurables and his back story.

2)  I am mindful that between the college portal and general college scouting, if he had a natural talent, he would have been playing for a big program sooner than he did.  Admittedly, there is some uncertainty here, but you would think his backstory would have included turning down scholarship offers at some point.

Hope your feeling better Rich

I don't know, he certainly had a very different backstory and college career
Maybe he will be another Tommy DeVito story- who also had a cirtuitous college career.

Justin Pugh did not represent an improvement in personnel. He was terrible on the field, despite his likeable personality. He had a 41.6 PFF grade (compared to 42.4 for Ezeudu who's been a complete disaster).

Pugh was on the couch, played 12 terrible games for the Giants, and is back on the couch where he belongs

No more than any other non-Giant... so I voted "I don't care" (not quite accurate but close enough). Bob

Quote from: Jclayton92 on Today at 11:38:37 AMThen I guess all the beat writers and guys covering the Giants have an agenda then because they've all been discussing this very question.

Having a vacuous biased agenda hardly depends on beat writer and other media discussions, now does it?

Cheers!

Quote from: Trench on May 20, 2024, 11:48:31 PMI think it seemed better because he threw it downfield more and made more plays.

And that's the problem with the eye test, when it isn't fact checked by measurables.

Quote from: Philosophers on Today at 10:24:06 AMHe's not so special that if the OL only allows a very amount of time before a QB gets hit that he will be effective.  NFL CBs can tie him early for a split second to screw up any effectiveness.  It's about the OL. 
Yeah I think the context in which the question was asked by different guys was asked so in a way to determine how special the beat writers and talking heads think Nabors can be.

Like is he Garrett Wilson or a Larry Fitzgerald who produced regardless of who was around him or does he need that pairing.

As much as a great qb sometimes needs a great Wr to be elite the same can be said for the Wr. Some though produce regardless and I think it's a little premature to even really know at this point before practices have really even started.

Quote from: MightyGiants on Today at 09:48:54 AMIt's funny, I was interviewed by my insurance company yesterday.  After the woman heard my description of the accident and the injuries I sustained, she remarked that she was surprised by how upbeat I was.   It's sort of funny, that messed with me a bit as I wondered if maybe I shouldn't be so upbeat.   Then I realized I was inspired by my boss.  She's had to deal with more than her fair shared of adversity and she never let it get her down.   I had admired that about her and I guess it inspired me to do the same.

This is inspirational far beyond the impact your boss has had on you and I hope, one day, you will let her know this.

You've given me a jolt of inspiration today by sharing this.

Thank you!
