We just got Mark Herzlich. Fuck yes.

Hope he lives up to everyone's expectations. I can't think of any player in recent memory that fans wanted so bad.

[G-men]

whats wrong with steve smith?

Constant knee problems will cause him to miss part of the upcoming season.

WFAN says Osi is holding out. After everything that's been said, I don't see him coming back later on for nothing like Strahan did. I think he seriously wants a new deal or to be traded. Will be interesting to see if the Giants give in or not because Osi is signed for at least two more years I think.

of the upcoming season.

He had a pec injury last year and then tore his ACL unfortunately. I'm still unclear whether he's healthy enough to even compete in training camp or if they'll put him on PUP after signing him.

Giants have apparently agreed to sign/or have signed the following UDFAs:

FB Henry Hynoski, Pittsburgh
DE Pierre Allen, Nebraska
OT/G Jarriel King, Mississippi State

Local papers are reporting that John Mara "suggested" that the team sign Herzlich. Both are BC alums, for what that's worth.

Rich Seubert will be cut.

Seubert had a great career with the team. At various times, was the best offensive lineman they had. Suffered two serious leg injuries though.

I'll miss him.

Coughlin connection as well.

Good story for you guys. He fills a need and can contribute. I wouldn't expect much the first year or so, though. Docs say his bones will be brittle for a little while still.

But the guy can play.

Free agent DeAngelo Williams has told friends that he would be interested in playing for the Giants if they don't retain free agent Ahmad Bradshaw.

We signed him.

Free agent Steve Smith is willing to accept a one-year contract, a source tells the Daily News.
Smith understands that he's coming off a major knee injury and might even have to start the season on the PUP list. The Giants will likely be able to retain him cheaply and see how his recovery goes, but fantasy owners should stay away.

[EmpireWF]

We signed him.

Yes, Mara basically told the team to sign him.

C David Baas to the GMen.

Top center in the free-agent market!

That's a 1-year extension for Coughlin. He was signed thru this upcoming season. So in essence, he needs a good season this year. #nyg

I'm a fan of this move. Let's get it this year TC.
