That’s just the AFCCG. Can’t speak for AJE, but Groot had a sack against Denver and Baltimore.

I’m not certain that we need another difference maker on offense (assuming Cook and Shakir perform at the same level), especially if Coleman or Kincaid take a step forward. We certainly need a difference maker or two on the team overall though. Whether that’s the desired receiver, DB that makes timely plays, or a DLman that gets timely stuffs or sacks… We need another guy or two to make some magic happen, particularly on the defensive side of the ball.

It’s Shelly Long.

Okay…. Now Beane needs to upgrade the D line to keep him clean.

At the right price - assuming he’s healthy - Hargrave would be a good rotational piece with Oliver that could be used effectively on 3rd and long alongside Oliver in a rush package. Key is in the right price and healthy aspect….

None. It would be proof of concept for Daboll’s offense. It’d probably work a lot better if they hadn’t bailed on saquon but 🤷‍♂️.

Wouldn’t be the worst idea if they could trade down, get a first next year and stockpile some day 2 picks. Of course that might be better for the Giants long term than the current regime.

That’s the key to Cook’s value for me. I would be all for resigning him if he was a solid pass blocker and could stay on the field for every critical 3rd and 4th down.

The correct way to view Cook is in the same category as Aaron Jones who’s been well paid and had a good career thus far. Cook - like Jones or Ekeler - isn’t an every down all game guy like Henry, Barkley, Kamara or Jacobs. He’s in the category below that, but provides the ability to make game-breaking plays in the running and passing game. Those types orten tend to not break down as fast as standard RBs, but the reduced percentage of touches makes them less valuable. The biggest thing that Cook has going against him aside from not being a workhorse is his pass blocking. When a large portion of a RBs value lays in their ability to make plays in the passing game the inability to pass block reduces their snap count and value. Basically, if you have to pay a Ty Johnson to play those third down snaps then Cook doesn’t deserve that extra couple million.

Legit shot with Allen on the 14’ squad. I’d actually put my money on this current version of Allen on the 04’ squad though…. Henry, McGahee, Evens, Moulds, S Adams, Big Pat, Schöbel, Clements, McGee, Milloy, Vincent, Spikes, Fletcher, Posey…. Biggest weakness was RT which JA17 could nullify with his legs. Seriously, if you just add Pat Williams and McGee, Clements, or Vincent to this past seasons roster and this team at least gets to the SB.

He’ll be there in three years if the team performs. Roseman knows he can probably hire the pick of the litter any time he wants to hire a new HC though, so he’ll probably “swap parts” after an early playoff loss if there’s a top 5-10 coach (Shanny, LaFleur, McDermott, etc) on the market. Outside of Reid, Roseman probably has the most job security of any non-owner in the league, and he’ll leverage that to stay on a HoF track.

He hasn’t been effective running the ball, but he’s had a huge impact on the game. The Barkley factor lead to 1v1 coverage on AJ Brown, etc.

It’s to be expected with the lack of transparency and public accountability for officials. People will always fill gaps with their own explanations…. Add in the current gambling ties with the NFL, and it’s going to be exasperated.

If they extended Cook at a 4 year $38 million I’d be extremely content with that. 3 for $30MM wouldn’t be bad either assuming he keeps producing at his current clip. He’s pretty low mileage despite the output, and RBs that produce in the passing game and split carries generally last better; Kamara, Aaron Jones, etc. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised to see the market shift a bit after what Henry, Sayquon, and Jacobs did this season.

These eyes are cryin

Did they try that with Frank Clark?

Rather it be Chris Jones instead.

Shelley Long killed it in Night Shift.

A Fritz Shurmur DC tree could be interesting. It would include Jim Johnson, McDermott, etc on one branch. Bum Philips and Buddy Ryan would also be interesting.

No, but if any of them pulls out a conch shell you’ll have to throw him off a cliff or be voted off the island.

You could cover three at once by opening a bar-cade that serves pizza and wings. 😉

If he wants to ring chase here and take a substantial discount…. Sure. I don’t see it happening any other way. I’m sure Mack would be embraced by us fans if he signed for $12MM and incentives.

The running back trying to play QB thing likely stuck as a narrative because of Greg Roman. Roman’s schemes have always been prodigious at run design and rudimentary at route concepts. It’s possibly a substantial reason why Lamar didn’t develop sooner as a passer.

It’s not so much speed, but the craft of getting a free release, running routes, maintaining fluidity through cuts, and how to confuse DBs at the top of stems. If he can start to master that and add some strength he’ll be able to put DBs in awkward situations.

Coleman needs to do both. He will likely never be a top separater in the NFL. However, if Coleman improves his release and routes while adding strength he may find a certain level of dominance in his play style.
