Official New York Giants Forum Thread

WTF?

TE Ben Patrick retired today. So now the Giants TE corps is back down to Travis Beckum and Bear Pascoe.

ALSO, rookie corner Prince Amukamara broke his foot and will have to undergo surgery. He's almost assured to miss a couple months.

FML

Reports are that Amukamara will miss the entire season.

Tough fucking break.

Prince Amukamara out indefinitely with broken foot

Posted by Mike Florio on August 6, 2011, 9:25 PM EDT

Only a couple of days after signing his rookie contract, Giants cornerback Prince Amukamara is out definitely with a broken foot, according to Paul Schwartz of the New York Post.

Specifically, Amukamara fractured the fifth metatarsal in his left foot.

He’ll undergo surgery to repair the injury.

The nineteenth overall selection in the 2011 draft, Amukamara was the last unsigned first-round pick.

For all the good Jerry Reese has done, he and the front office get a 'D' this off-season. What was the fucking plan, and how can they let Kevin Boss go to the Raiders?

-Players Lost
WR Derek Hagan

Big question marks in the secondary (safety), LB corps (as usual) and at DT.

Offensive line will be pieced together it seems plus nothing settled at FB or TE.

On the bright side, our special teams should be head and shoulders better than 2010.
 
Serious question.

Why is your coaching staff obsessed with putting Mathias Kiwanuka at linebacker? Dude doesn't fit there unless you run a 3-4, and even then, I'm not a tremendous fan.

He's not gonna be on the strong side again, is he?

i dont like Kiwi at LB either. if its every once in a while to mix things up in a scheme or something then OK, but not full time. Kiwi's first foray into a full time LB lasted about 2 quarters into the season thanks to Jason Witten and i dont want to see that again.
 
They say Kiwanuka will be SLB on 1st and 2nd downs. Assume they just want to have as many of the pass rushers on the field early as possible. Whether Osi or JPP starts opposite Tuck...then on 3rd downs they can send all the DEs (Tuck, JPP, Kiwi and Osi) with their hand on the ground.

I'm not sold on the guy playing LB either but I have faith in Fewell's schemes.

Damn that is a bad break. Still got some depth but geez...

That's not confirmed. They are still under the belief he'll be gone for at least 2 months. Just take it as it comes I guess.

You sure? There was a lot of talk about Sintim starting.
 
Tweet from CB Terrell Thomas: Hate to see a SS sign w/ any team, but gald we get to play against him 2x a yr, and show him the grass ain't GREENER on the other side
 
coming to grips with it....

Worst part is how smart Smith is and how much he will help the Eagles study our team.

Im imagining the injury will probally hurt his career and he will most likely get hurt again. He was never a burner just a smart player with good route running and quickness. Maybe he wont ever be as good as he was pre injury.

The future is Nicks and Manningham so we still have 2 great receivers. The young talent with Cruz and Jernigan is exciting. Maybe Hixon can breakout a big year at receiver.

Just sucks to lose a good player and especially to Eagles. Really... Most likely he plays this year then signs on the west coast with SD or SF

Let's hope.
 
Gotta be optimistic.

-Still have a stable QB who can sling it.
-Kept our two RBs and Bradshaw is entering his prime.
-Hakeem Nicks and Mario Manningham entering their 3rd years as every week wideouts and throw in the young guys (Cruz, Jernigan) as hungry ballcatchers.
-We do have depth along the OL and the guys we have starting are pretty good (McKenzie, Snee, Baas, Diehl and young Beatty)

-I'm excited about the defensive front. Looks like Osi is healthy, explosive and coming back to play. Which means we still have Tuck, Osi, JPP (!!!) and Kiwanuka. Add in the fresh meat with Linvyl Joseph and Marvin Austin up the middle with the depth of Bernard and the guy they signed from Arizona...

-Secondary took a hit with Prince's injury but it's not a bad unit at all. KP has to be playing this year more relaxed than last year, a year removed from injury.

-LB corps is what it is, hopefully a guy like Ingram or Herzlich can establish themselves as contributors.

-Special teams should definitely be better with Jernigan/Hixon returning the ball and then Weatherford (IMO) becoming the full-time punter.

-TE is a tough spot, no idea how that will unfold. Hopefully Beckum's run blocking has improved over the years.

Then after the season, Manningham, McKenzie and I think Terrell Thomas and Aaron Ross hit free agency.

Optimistic.

The problem isn't the talent at WR. The problem is you lost the best slot receiver you had and probably the best route runner.

Nicks and Manningham for whatever reason couldn't work out of there. Maybe they worked on it this offseason and in training camp. But they've got a real issue at that position where Eli knew he always had that option on 3rd down.

I'm a DC facing the Giants, I double Nicks and go after Eli hard on 3rd. Sure, Manningham might beat you once in a while, but I like those chances.
