As if the Giants needed
another pass-rushing
specialist. Strahan and
Umenyiora have quickly
become one of the best
duos in the league. Justin
Tuck, a steal in the '05
Draft, backs them up.
Despite all this talent,
the G-Men opted for
another pass-rushing
specialist, primarily
based on the fact that DE
Mathias Kiwanuka
was the best talent
available at #32. Kiwanuka
needs to bulk up, but once
he does, he'll be a
spectacular replacement
for veteran Strahan. WR
Sinorice Moss, like
his brother, has been
labeled "too small for the
NFL." Don't believe every
label you read. Moss is a
dynamic playmaker. Toomer
has lost a step and other
than Burress, the WR corps
is thin. Moss will be a
perfect fit in this
offense. LB Gerris
Wilkinson is a
tackling machine capable
of handling the inside or
outside. He'll have LaVar
Arrington mentoring him
now. Depth concerns at DT
and DB were addressed
wisely with the
acquisition of Barry
Cofield and Charlie
Peprah, a pair of
smart, versatile
performers. |
