Womens Carl Banks Jersey , Kyle Laueltta and much moreSomething has been gnawing at me now for quite a while, and it’s this opinion that the Giants got nothing in return for letting safety Landon Collins walk out the door.While I get it that we live in an instant gratification society, there is also a school of thought that says, “Good things come to those who wait.”In the case of Collins, the Giants, per Over the Cap, are projected to receive a compensatory pick to use in next year’s draft, one of their highest compensatory picks in recent memory. So not only does that count for something, but it could end up being a very valuable bargaining chip if the Giants need to move up in the first round next year for their next franchise quarterback. Not knowing the 2020 draft order, it’s impossible to begin calculating what it would take for the Giants to move up to get the quarterback of their choice. What we can probably safely say is that it’s going to take a package of picks to move up. This package will likely need to include their first rounder and potentially one of the two third-round picks they are scheduled to have next year (plus my guess is if they have to go very high up in the order, it could cost them their 2021 first-rounder, but I’m getting a little ahead of myself there).The point is that it’s inaccurate to say that the Giants let Landon Collins walk away for nothing. I get it that there are some who said that if the Giants knew they were going to move on from Collins last year, why not get something at the time.But if they weren’t going to get anything close to what they were looking for (reportedly a second-round pick), it really didn’t make sense to move him.to grab Barkley were virtually nonexistent.Gettleman claims he has a plan that will continue to take shape in the draft, where it’s believed the Giants will use their abundance of picks to plug a massive number of holes on the roster at right tackle, defensive line, edge, off-ball linebacker, safety Mark Bavaro Jersey , and cornerback.So yes, there is a plan, and once the draft class takes shape, the picture will hopefully be a lot clearer.Brad Penner-USA TODAY SportsKyle Lauletta’s futureIt’s rare, but not impossible, that a quarterback drafted on Day 3 turns into a quality starter capable of taking his team to the Promised Land.Tom Brady, a sixth-round pick in 2000, is the most famous example who accomplished this. So too is some guy by the name of Kurt Warner, an undrafted free agent who got his start in the Arena Football League but who won a Super Bowl with the St. Louis Rams in 2008.So yes, there are exceptions to the rule, but for the most part, franchise quarterbacks come in the first round — and the earlier, the better.Which brings us to Kyle Lauletta, who came from a small school program and who was further behind the 8 ball than some of his contemporaries in last year’s class.There were a number of people who thought Lauletta might be the heir to Manning’s throne. In retrospect, that was a pretty high expectation for a guy who was expected to go all out on getting up to speed as quickly as he could only to show that he still had a long way to go when he flopped in a late-season game against Washington. I think it speaks volumes that the Giants re-signed Alex Tanney, who took zero regular game snaps for the Giants last year, to a two-year contract. Head coach Pat Shurmur will tell us that Tanney has NFL experience, but according to NFL.com, Tanney has attempted just 14 passes in his pro career http://www.giantslockerroom.com/authentic-eli-manning-jersey , completing 10 for 99 yards and 1 touchdown.That’s just a smidgen more regular-season game experience than what Lauletta has.Given all the clues, I think it’s plain as day that Lauletta isn’t a lock to be on this roster on opening day, especially if the Giants draft another Day 3 prospect to develop.I do think that Lauletta will get the opportunity to compete this summer, assuming he doesn’t have any more missteps along the way. But if there was ever any hope that he might one day succeed Eli Manning as the starter (and I don’t believe there was), that hope is probably gone.Thomas J. Russo-USA TODAY SportsKeep an eye on Evan EngramI often am asked who I think will lead the Giants in receptions and receiving yards in 2019 now that Odell Beckham Jr is no longer with the team.My answer is tight end Evan Engram (assuming he stays healthy).Engram, in my opinion, took the biggest leap forward of any of the Giants’ receiving targets, an occurrence that gets overlooked thanks to him having missed five games last year due to injuries. But let’s take a closer look at just what kind of major strides Engram made from Year 1 to Year 2:He cut down on his dropped passes, going from 11 as a rookie to 3 in his second season.He increased his yards after the catch average from 4.7 to 8.7 yards.He had the highest NFL rating (115.6) of all the Giants receiving targets, including the wide outs, running backs and tight ends who were targeted at least 20 times in the passing game And do I really need to tell you what he’s been able to do when Beckham hasn’t been in the lineup?Ok, if you insist. Evan Engram 2019 Production: With & Without Odell in the LineupTargRecYardsTDsYACDropsTargRecYardsTDsYACDropsTo be clear, Beckham is a generational talent, which as we know doesn’t grow on trees. But this notion that the Giants passing game is doomed without him appears to be overblown so long as Engram stays healthy.

Defensive coordinator James Bettcher on Wednesday reminded assembled media not to forget about Markus Golden Kevin Zeitler Jersey , who was acquired via free agency. Golden had 12.5 sacks in 2016 while playing for Bettcher with the Arizona Cardinals. A knee injury has limited him to 15 games and 2.5 sacks since that season.“Don’t ever forget that before (the injury) he was one of the best pass rushers in this league,” Bettcher said. “People had to plan for him. I know that because I was one of the guys calling the plays for him on defense. I saw what he was able to do when he was healthy and running around. I love how he is moving right now, and I love his work. He is a guy that is going to play exceptionally hard. As I sat here a year ago and talked to you about one of the identifying qualities we needed our defense to look like, (it) was to look relentless, work relentless and play relentless. I think that is probably the epitome of Markus.”Jabrill Peppers as return manSpecial teams coordinator Thomas McGaughey was asked Wednesday what Jabrill Peppers, who returned both punts and kickoffs with the Cleveland Browns, could bring to the return game.“High energy, the guy is a for sure ball handler. Can make all the cuts full speed. He just brings juice,” McGaughey said. “I’ve known the kid since he was 16 years old. I recruited him when I was at LSU. Jabrill is a special athlete. He can do anything -- run the football, catch the football, whatever. He’s just a great athlete.”McGaughey said he will work in both capacities with the Giants.A better receiving corps?Without Odell Beckham Jr.? Is that possible?“Well, I believe in the group that we have in the room right now. I’m very, very confident in my coaching ability and I coach guys from all different ends of the spectrum and whoever we put on the field is going to be a contributing player for our offense,” said wide receivers coach Tyke Tolbert. “So it doesn’t matter who’s in the room. We’re going to coach him up to get him to play the best of your ability and will be successful with the guys we have in the room.”More headlinesPass rusher Ziggy Ansah signing with Seahawks - NFL.comIt doesn’t seem like the Giants were ever really in play for the former Detroit Lions defnesive end.2019 NFL bold predictions: Derek Carr’s back, Pittsburgh’s wack - NFL.comLet’s hope it’s Adam Schein’s prediction that turns out to be bonkers.2019 Free Agency Cost-Benefit Analysis | Football OutsidersThe common narrative is that the Giants overpaid for wide receiver Golden Tate.
