Thanx for recap plax, kinda puts its all in perspective. Im real happy so far with the giants decisions this off season. Best pick up Josh Brown!! can you imagine not having to punt from the 38 yard line.

Josh Brown will pick up where Tynes left off. I never understood the sentimental feelings Giants fans had for Tynes. He is an average kicker but he is talked up like he is some stud.
Most of these FA signings won't pan out but it doesn't matter since little risk was invested into them. At least 1 or 2 of these guys should surprise and see a nice payday for 2014.

INTERESTED IN: TE Brandon Meyers === I would LOVE this to happen if we get him under contract. He showed to be an amazing option for Carson Palmer last year. And if he comes here, he will have a better QB and a better supporting cast, leaving more room for him to shine. hehehe

New York Giants CURRENT roster (starters and key reserves)
QB: Eli Manning RB: David Wilson [backup: Andre Brown] FB: Henry Hynoski WR1: Hakeem Nicks WR2: Rueben Randle [backup: Louis Murphy] WR3: Victor Cruz [backup: Jerrell Jernigan] TE: Brandon Myers [backup: Bear Pascoe, Adrien Robinson] LT: Will Beatty LG: David Diehl [backup: Brandon Mosley] C: David Baas [backup: Jim Cordle] RG: Chris Snee RT: James Brewer
RDE: Jason Pierre-Paul [backup: Adrian Tracy] RDT: Linval Joseph [backup: Marvin Austin, Markus Kuhn] LDT: Cullen Jenkins [backup: Shaun Rogers] LDE: Justin Tuck [backup: Justin Trattou] LOLB: Jacquian Williams [backup: Spencer Paysinger] ILB: Dan Connor [backup: Mark Herzlich] ROLB: Mathias Kiwanuka [backup: Keith Rivers] RCB: Corey Webster [backup: Aaron Ross, Terrell Thomas] FS: Antrel Rolle [backup: Will Hilll] SS: Stevie Brown [backup: Ryan Mundy, Tyler Sash] LCB: Prince Amukamara [backup: Jayron Hosley]
===
WHAT WE NEED:
ONE backup QB === sign a veteran for the minimum, or draft one LATE. TWO offensive tackles === pick up one who can start (just in case Brewer does not pan out), and one who can be a nice reserve in case Beatty goes down. ONE guard === If we get Boothe back, then Diehl can either be excellent depth or a cut (might be cut to save money). One in the draft would be nice, preferably in the early rounds (1-3).
===
It is kind of funny. Many Giants fans want a defense oriented draft, myself included, but it seems that our defense is pretty shored up for the most part. Our OL needs help. There are still many great OL guys on the market, so maybe the Giants can get one on the cheap.
Thoughts?

Giants need to trade up in the draft order and get Warmack........ok not gonna happen but should definetly get the best OG they can in the draft. Deihl needs to go he has become a liability. And we may not get boothe back so we have a gap.
Back up QB-Eli never gets hurt but guess we still need one lol
Defense is fine right now. Its even deep so no issues.

Hasn't David Carr suffered enough through his career? Now you want him to back up Wilson at RB? You're a cruel person plax

The Brandon Myers deal is only for 1 year. I wanted longer, but it makes sense for the Giants and their revolving door of TEs.
This will be the 4th straight season with a different TE starting for the Giants...
