illCurmudgeon:
Welcome, my brother! Big C: Strahan had a down year for him last year. And the reason I am not falling all over myself about the addition of Griffen is that he played pretty miserably last year. He also has a reputation for "taking plays off" but it seems that he doesn't tell anyone when he's going to do that. Last year, he watched a LOT of RBs stroll through the middle of the Giants' D-line so that the LBs and backs could make the tackle. I'd have to check this out, but I thought that Hamilton was hurt for about half the season; whatever. The Giants' D-line was hardly their strong suit last year. Maybe I exaggerated when I said they were as bad as the Skins' D-line from last year which was just piss-pot-poor. But the Giants' D-line is a major reason that Barrow got as many tackles as he did. He did not get 50 of those tackles on the offensive side of the line of scrimmage! |

SC,
Strahan had 18.5 sacks and 61 tackles last year. If that was a down year I'd hate to see what he can really do. |

fiore is only 30 also, not like hes ancient like ray brown lol, but fiore did have like a degenerative condition with his knee, and thats why we drafted dockery, because we knew fiore had the problems.

Funny how the last 2 drafts have gone. When we drafted Dockery alot of people questioned it, then Fiore barely gets on the field and he's now retired.
This year we take a couple of lineman and people questioned that as well. Now Jansen is out for the year and the Wilson pick looks alot better, for depth at least. |

most teams have tons of looming injuries now, so im not worried about it. Everyone is sore from camp, thats why theres a scheduled break before teh season starts.
