Two Giants On Top 50 List

Posted by Jeremy Fuchs on July 2nd, 2009 in Media

Pete Prisco made his list of the top 50 NFL players, and there are two Giants on it. Guard Chris Snee comes in at number 41, while defensive end Justin Tuck is number 50. Here’s what Prisco has to say about Snee and Tuck:

He’s much more than the son-in-law of coach Tom Coughlin. He’s a mauler in the run game.

He’s a dominant pass rusher who emerged as a Pro Bowl player last season. Getting back Osi Umenyiora on the other side will help him be even better

Good for Snee and Tuck. They are two elite players and are rightfully being recognized for it. I’m surprised names like Eli Manning and Brandon Jacobs are not on this list, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. Congrats, Snee and Tuck.

I’m embarassed for the author of that article that Philip Rivers is ranked #20th and that Eli Manning is not even on the list.

Philip Rivers has put up great numbers against the “awesome” defenses of the A.F.C West and beautiful California on a very LOADED team.

Meanwhile, Eli Manning, plays in the toughest division of football, in the worst stadium in the league to throw a football and leads his team to four consecutive playoff apperanes and a Super Bowl Titles and isn’t on the list.

Crazy

WOW! Not to mention Eli’s not even on the 25 just mised players (but Tony Romo is)

This guy isn’t using his b-r-a-i-n.

He also put Shawne Merriman who missed all of last season but not Osi Umeinyora who missed all of last season and was as prodcutive if not more so for a longer period of time.
