Giants Gab

We’ve been Ranking the Giants all week, and now we’re onto the wide receivers and tight ends. With Plaxico Burress and Amani Toomer gone, someone was going to have to step up. No one knew who it would be. Luckily, many Giants did. Let’s Rank The Giants, Wide Receiver/Tight End Style
STEVE SMITH:
What can you say [...]

WoW. I usually wait to do the talking-points after I dissect the game more, but let me get right into it now I can’t hold back anything anymore. What an embarassing, gutless performance.
I can sum this whole post up in 25   words.
Terrible Offensive line play (pass on Chris Snee). Terrible Defensive line play (pass on [...]

After today’s report suggesting Manningham was “good to go”, Adam Schefter reports that Manningham is inactive for today’s game against the Eagles. This means we’ll see a lot of Hakeem Nicks.
Other inactives include: Ramses Barden, Aaron Ross, Gartrell Johnson, Michael Boley,  Adam Koets, Guy Whimper and Chris Canty.

My game ball, goes out to Mario Manningham who before this game had 7 career receptions for 84 yards. Well tonight, Manningham was Eli’s favorite receiver, as he had 10 receptions for 150 yards and a great catch in the end zone for a touchdown. I’m not saying that his performance tonight will prove he [...]

Matt Williamson of ESPN has broken down the 5 most interesting NFC training camp battles. The Giants wide receiver battle is number two. Here is what Williamson has to say:
As it sits today, Domenik Hixon and Steve Smith probably would start the season. Smith is a possession guy who would do his best work as [...]

If the shoulder pads Mario Manningham wears next season seem larger than normal, it might be because of the chip he has on his shoulder.
Manningham, a 2005 Warren G. Harding graduate, played in just seven games and caught four passes for 26 yards as a rookie receiver for the New York Giants last season. [...]

I saw an interesting article here
In the article Chris Steuber profiles and discusses the top 10 prospects in the Giants organization right now. I enjoyed the article and I like scout.com but it got me thinking-how would I rate the top 10 prospects in the Giants system?
“Prospects” is a different term in the N.F.L. then [...]

With training camp almost upon us, I thought it would be appropriate to name 5Giants who could break out this year. This list is in no particular order.
1. Kenny Phillips
