RB at 36? Call it a career...If the Giants really wanted a RB to could gain yards they could have resigned Gallman...just sayin.

If the running game needs help, sign another OL.

That's a different story and I understand what you're saying. The only way this kind of move makes sense is if they feel Booker isn't enough, Barkley will be out for the beginning of the year and they don't want to risk losing any games due to this deficiency. Is Barkley definitely out for the first few weeks? I haven’t heard definitive reports. Way too early to say He definitely will be worked back slowly and won't be getting his usual amount of reps until at least a few games into the season, so someone is going to have to step up and fill that role at least for a few games. |

It was Tom Quinn who brought this guy to Judge's attention. I always read coaches talking about his special teams ability first and then maybe mention his offensive skills. We have Booker and Armstead who both can run the inside zone and catch outthe backfield like Barkley. |

I couldn't find anything outside of some short highlight videos if you can link any videos of breakdowns or other tape you have seen it would be good. I really see nothing special as a running back vs. The competition he faced. |

They are thinking about signing him because they are afraid Barkley isn’t going to be ready? They never should have let Gallman walk. Stupid. (IMO) |

(IMO) Considering Gallman signed for only 1million and already knew the offense. My only thinking is that Booker may be better at pass pro which would seriously help DJ because Saquon is a turnstile back there and he definitely didn't work on that while rehabbing. |

Who really cares? Let them sign 50 RBs and have them compete. The best players make this team. If that ends up being Peterson because he beat people out with his walker in his hand so be it. :-) |

I personally think that he could still help a team. He obviously isn't anywhere near his prime, but he played OK for Washington two years ago and Detroit last year. Our backfield is too crowded for him or anyone else. We have at least 4 on our team with at least one of them headed to the PS. There is no way he holds the fort if Barkley is not ready. I doubt he won't be. this is already the end of June and I haven't read of anybody saying Barkley will be ready and that concerns me a little.. |

Its social media, so its equivalent to a girl taking 100 pictures to get "the one shot" and acting surprised in it, but he looks good here... |

I don't think there's any chance he'll be ready for week 1. Even if he’s cleared, it'll be weeks before he gets back to his usual snap count. |

Running around in sand does not sound like a great idea after you just tore your knee up. I remember way back in the day at the pro bowl there was a flag football game where a RB tore up his knee because he slipped in the sand. |

The only thing I can think of is he knew he was worth more to the Giants than any other team so maybe he asked for a lot more given his performance. Combine that with his lack of STs play and maybe the Giants figured he wasn't worth it. |

That is like a Bo Jackson meets LT 1980s era commercial lol. He will be ready for the season. Judge will play it safe and limit him early on. He will win comeback player of the year. |
