He is in his prime, wait 5 years and we'll give up multiple draft picks for him. LOL

[Ruhskins]

Don't we already have wideouts that drop the ball?

Why would we want Rod Gardner part II?

understood about the drops, but Edwards has much more burst & speed, more athletic & gets open downfield. If his drops are a matter of concentration & focus, then it can be corrected. On the other hand, if he's dropping a lot cause he's not that comfortable in traffic (M. Westbrook comes to mind), his habit is likely to continue.

I certainly don't want edwards, especially w/our situation, give the young guys a chance. but at the right price he could be a serious playmaker for the right team. Hope he doesn't end up in the nfc east.

He's dropped balls his whole career going back to Michigan. Somehow I doubt it's something that's going to be corrected by switching teams. He just doesn't have reliable hands.

Man this is a rough crowd in here today! Very few Giant Fans want Boldin...he's a TO type and the only reason he's any good at all is becuase he has LF on the otherside. As for Edwards lets not forget Plax had a dropping the ball thing going on in Pittsburgh also when he came to NY,Edwards hasn't had the best of the QB's and OC to work with either.
IMOP....I wouldn't be surprised to see the Giants not do the trade and just move up to get another need,maybe a Top flight TE or a Lber from USC

In 2003, his rookie campaign, the year before Fitzgerald, he had over 100 catches, almost 1400 yards, and 8 touchdowns.

Wanna continue with that argument?

Please take Edwards, Giants.

I don't understand why people say stuff like this about Boldin!!!

[GusFrerotte]

Edwards sucks monkey balls. A huge underachiever and disappointment for Cleveland, so why do you think it would do us any good in bringing him here? If we really wanted a WR we would have gone for Holt or Boldin. Mortgaging future draft picks even for them would be moronic with all the holes we have to plug, so why would we mortgage our future for the likes of Edwards?

Yeah, Edwards could drop easy ones in the Big House on any given Saturday. He was a star for the Woverines, but that isn't saying much nowadays. Ever since Schembechler left that program has slowly slid downhill til what you got 2 years ago and the ASU debacle. I laughed my ass off on that one!!!!!!! Buckeye fans were calling that game the greatest Buckeye victory ever!!!!

[SmootSmack]

Meanwhile, the Eagles may get Gonzalez. Wonder what they would have to give up for him
