Busy week in the football world. The Giants traded for a legitimate receiving TE in Darren Waller and they got that trade by shopping the pick they received for, wait for it, Kadarious Toney. Ok, Schoen. I see you. Seriously. He’s worked some serious magic over his brief tenure. Now if he could conjure a receiving corps, and at least one lockdown corner we’d be about that conference championship. Perhaps he appeals to Zeke’s better nature and convinces the hard-nosed running back to join the G-men and run it back against the Cowboys? Depends on if Bijan is still available draft day.
The draft is roughly a month out and the free agency moves are definitely shaping what teams are going to do on draft day. Hopefully the Giants can grab a Bijan or similar talent. I fear the CB crop isn’t really that solid, despite the early hoopla about who is good. Several mocks have the first 4 picks being QBs. Will Levis is getting that Zach Wilson treatment and he’s about to have that Zach Wilson failure. He and Richardson are getting the smoke whereas Bryce Young and CJ Stroud have already been talked about so much that the media clearly wants a new story to pitch; a new name to put out there. Of the 4 corners supposed to go in the 1st, none is the Georgia CB who locked up top WRs all season. That is a curious one to be sure…
Some Thoughts:
- Slowly trying to crawl back to health. I slept away the middle of the day, which is totally not like me. In fact, I abhor it.
