What happened to this guy?
Coming in as a rookie FA he looked to be what we thought Engram could be...then he disappeared. I slightly recall his 2nd season but not very similar to what he did as a rookie. Maybe lost playing time due to inferior blocking, can't recall

Stonybrook is an engineering school. The Giants were so pathetic that this player was a starter on the team.

Will Tye was a product of that hybrid system Coughlin and Mac ran.
The route concepts helped the receivers get open majorly. If you watch those offenses in 14 and 15, you always see guys open. It was designed to help average players look above average (Randle).
It also helped that they used a lot of different formations and alignments..kept the Defenses guessing..
Once Coughlin was "retired" Mac removed the majority of those concepts. As a result it became very one dimensional and predictable. You then saw players like Tye suffer. The entire offense suffered as they could never score over 27 points despite having better play makers (Beckham, Cruz and Shepherd;better than the 2015 line up)
They haven't had a legit TE since Bennett

Yeah, I remember a player who transferred from FSU to Stony Brook. And not only made an NFL team, but started. The only Stony Brook alumni to do it. And yet, the mutts are shitting on him.

Nah, that's not it at all. This is about the fact that the Giants were so piss poor at evaluation and the fact that their roster was so pathetic that the had to dig into the bottom of the hole to make it work. Just another example of how inept this organization is and was. This is on the Giants not Will Tye. Tye did good and has his NFL memories.

You say it like they couldve trotted anybody out there and got similar production? he was making pretty big plays (30+ yards) for a TE...I think he got hurt and that was enough to take him down a couple notches

We need a bunch of guys like him, low cost and fairly dependable--just not at starting skill positions. He wasn't blessed with a ton of talent but took it(his opportunity) serious. He moved some chains. He couldn't have been awful as McAdoo gave him the nickname "Baby Gates". Get used to player nicknames as its something Daboll does too.

I just think the system helped him out, which is what good systems are supposed to do. That's not a knock on him, he still had to make the most of those opportunities and he certainly did! Wasn't he on the Jets in 2017-2018? One of those years? But yes we definitely do need more like him. Same goes for Ballard. Who saw that coming?

That certainly applied to Bavaro, Mowatt, Cross, Boss, and Ballard. Time to get back to that at TE. I do think it can apply to Kaden Smith but he hasn't had much of a chance since the departure of Shurmur. I think NYG will draft one.

You know, the cheap terminator knockoff made in Chile played numerous games for the Giants.

I stopped reading after "he looked to be what we thought Engram could be." He was an undrafted FA out of what is essentially a D2 school. To give you an idea, I could have played for Stony Brook...lol. I ended up at Suny Albany and the rest is history How can an undrafted rookie FA from a D2 school be what you expected of a D1 first round pick? You never even heard of the guy before the Giants signed him.
