Big Blue Huddle

His highlights are fabulous!!! If his heart is in it he will be a fantastic player

Trench football warfare let's get back to.

Defensive ends, offensive tackles and QBs are worth the most. So this was a no brainer.

So grateful we didn't get the 1st pick and get Ward.

I think winning that game was the best thing that happened to us recently.

Schoen gets a lot of flak and for good reason,  but he didn't force a QB and didn't trade a lot of picks to move up (that reported package they offered Tennessee is insane though... thankful it wasn't accepted). They did the smart thing and that's so important.

Now interesting what happens the rest of the round.  I would really prefer the giants not trade picks to move up,  and I'm secretly hoping both Sanders and Dart are on the board after today is over.  Really no reason to move up then unless Daboll wants Dart that badly, as i could see the browns or a trade up candidate take Sanders first tomorrow,  and then Dart is an option for us.

Trading up would be a huge mistake and reek of desperation.

I hope not. I rather like the idea of having 3 good pass rushers.

Love the pick. Welcome to The Giants! Our defense is really shaping up which I love. Maybe another rough year then get the QB in 2026.

Although maybe they pull something later tonight

Golston/Dimukeje aren't horrible options as a 3rd rusher if we need to trade KT.

I would rather have him hustling in his FA year than taking what he would bring in a trade.

I do too and Kayvon is a solid run defender as well.  Just wonder if he could be an odd man out for a variety of reasons.  Dex and Burns have big contracts so signing Kayvon to an extension seems unlikely.  Further given the 5th year option possibility they may be able to get a decent price for him. 

I like the idea of having depth at pass rusher, but they need a lot of help elsewhere, especially on offense, so if it happens I won't be upset depending on what they do with it.

If we pick up a solid DT tomorrow this defense could actually be close to elite.

He's still a good young player and you need depth.

If Thibs can't get to the QB now then he's a total bust

Per Dan Salamone, Joe Schoen is now stating that they are picking up Thibs' option.
