Hopefully the can find big Dex a Robin to his Batman. If they can find a good DT in round two this defense could be really good.

Wasn't enamored with him as a prospect. His highlights looked great, sure. Everybody's highlights look great. All I can say is, I hope he plays better than the last top five pass rusher we took.

And learns how to put his jersey all the way on.

Completely on board with him playing off ball on rushing downs his rookie year.
Nothing wrong with sets where they are not on the field at the same time and rotating in that set.  Keeps players fresher.

One of the things that annoys me is when they have DLinemen dropping back into coverage when it is obvious they are a fish out of water.  I get it, it is just to cause confusion and you are hoping the OLine now has a player  not blocking anyone off the snap, which helps other pass rushers avoid a double team or come free.  With his experience as a Mike, can have Carter do so and will actually KNOW what he is doing.

coggs: You are so right. Speed is one of Carter's great assets. And the guy who posted that video was correct. They'll be re-running that play (which was against a good team) over and over during preseason games on the Giants' "home" channel, IMO. Bob
If Jeff Hostetler could do it, Daniel Jones can do it !!!

As far as I know, the only number Carter was interested in was Taylor's 56, and LT shut down that discussion

I'll be interesting to see if Banks will give up his #2 for Dart or if Dart changes his number.

I wondered if Banks switched to that number, thinking he would be able to sell it (Didn't Sanders wear number 2, as well?)
