Iāve been trying to find the right words for the past 2 and half days now - and I just canāt seem to get it.
Lexi, thank you for everything. Thanks for being my best friend for over a decade. Thank you for traveling the country with me and moving from state-to-state as I tried to find my footing in my career. Thank you for being a great big sister and thank you for being the first thing I saw every time I came home from a long work trip. I love you and Iāll miss you forever.

Thibodeaux put up similar number rookie numbers to Brian Burns and TJ Watt. They all had a similar PFF grade, pass rush win %, true pass rush win %, and total pressure numbers. Anyone calling him a bust at this point is wrong.
It's amazing to me that some #Giants fans on here are calling BUST on Kayvon Thibodeaux. Did you watch the tape? The Cowboys took like three true pass sets the entire game. Meanwhile it might have been Thibs' best game setting the edge. Signs he's made a big jump in that regard.

Penny finished the season as the 4th highest graded FB with a 68.6 Overall Grade (min 100 snaps) in 2018. Coach Shurmur likes to use 21 & 22 personnel, so keeping a versatile FB on the roster seems like a possible move.

All of this Vernon hate is confusing. If you think 8 sacks, 46 pressures & 22 stops in 11 games makes him bad/invisible then your expectation of good is unrealistic or you aren't watching.
Highest graded Giants players in the 2018 season (min 500 snaps):
1. WR Odell Beckham Jr - 90.0
2. ED Olivier Vernon - 86.3

NY Giants LT Nate Solder made the PFF Week 10 Team of the Week for plays like this. His Run-Block grade of 93.5 is the highest single game Run-Block grade for any OT this season (15 snap min.)
He also didn't allow a pressure.

Usually people don't praise edge defenders for their coverage ability, but Giants rookie Lorenzo Carter had himself a day against the 49ers. His 88.5 coverage grade on Monday Night was the highest coverage grade of any ED targeted at least twice in Week 10.

I'm not going to argue that Collins has played well this year (he's currently graded around the 19th best Safety) but basing the quality of a secondary player on turnovers caused and sacks (especially when he hasn't rushed the QB once yet) is not a great way to do it.
#Redskins made Landon Collins the highest paid Safety in league history with a 6-year, $84 million contract this off-season.
So far, he has forced 0 INTs, 0 Fumbles, 0 Sacks, 0 passes defended.
He's also missing tackles [was also penalized on this play]

I wrote about a possible DK Metcalf trade at the deadline last season. At that point, according to the @SumerSports trade comparison tool, the closest comp was the 2012 Brandon Marshall trade.
With only one year left on DK's deal, the comp falls between the Marshall deal and the 2018 Demaryius Thomas trade - which would be around a 3rd Round Pick.

Martin had a rough first 5 games, but he's bounced back since then. Since Week 6 he has a 75.8 Overall Grade, which is solid. #GiantsPride
Biggest misconeption I've seen on #Giants Twitter is that Kareem Martin was a bad FA signing. I feel safe saying they haven't watched a minute of All-22. For $5M per year, the raw 26-year-old who mostly played 5-tech until this year at times looks like their best EDGE (run+pass).
