Wynn Warned Not to Get Comfortable, Morency Questionable

It kind of sucks when you make a deal with one team, and then are trying to work a trade with another team and they then know what you are willing to part with for a certain type of player.

Trust me he isn't just trying to keep the fans in the dark, its not always about us people.

Too bad we couldn't have sent Rayner there for the RB.

I agree.

I see what you're saying. Given the fact that Thompson could very well still be shopping for another RB as we speak, that makes sense.

I was just reading through some Giants forums. They thought the guy was a good running back. Some guys were pissed that he was traded. Nobody said he sucked. It was pretty universal that he was good. Similar to the Carolina vibes that we got from Jarrett Bush last year. Also, TT giving up a 6th gives me a little optimism. That is like another team giving up a 4th and Sherman giving up a 2nd.

the fact that they liked him makes me feel a very little bit better... i still wish it was a 7th. guy hasn't played a down in a regular season game...

This looks like a good Giants forum. Bretsky found this originally. I found another, smaller thread

said Wynn, who rushed 21 times for 54 yards against Tennessee. ``Some people may feel like I don't deserve to be on the 53-man roster.

esoxx would be one of those people that feel you don't deserve to be on the 53 man roster.

Thanks for posting the links JH. I looked through em, and it looks for the most part like the Giants fans all liked Grant, and were happy that he would get a chance to start elsewhere.

Does it seem to any of the rest of you that GMs are starting to play more "games" with their rosters than they have in previous years? I surmise it is done in hope of trading surplus NFL caliber players during the early weeks of the season to cover weaknesses or injury.

I heard that Denver was keeping five running backs, and we have 11 def. linemen, and even TT humorously attempted to run the bluff that he was keeping two kickers.

If Rayner signs with the Giants they get a good kicker and our 6th round pick for an unknown RB that scouts universally yawn at. TT got played pretty good.

I don't think TT got played pretty good. Nobody keeps two kickers unless one has a crap leg and the other is the kickoff specialist. I don't think anyone in the NFL was buying that keep two kickers deal. I have absolutely no clue on the guy they paid the 6th round pick for so I couldn't begin to guess if he's worth it. It was worth bluffing on the kicker deal but that was a longshot.

Under normal circumstances I'd say we got played. But given the injuries, and lack of depth, a 6th rounder seems worth it.

Plus this year, we have three rookies drafted in the sixth round making the roster and two of them starting. Has that ever happened in the history of the NFL? Can we really afford to make a habit of it?

Well one is a kicker, and I don't count kickers. It was a pretty good 6th round effort.
