any other WR's out there for the taking? what do u guys think about David Boston?

No to Roid Rage Boston. I don't know if he can even play a game much less a season.

Bradford is coming on Saturday. The other guy that has been mentioned is David Terrell.

good! I really wanted him but if him and his agent are going to be such money hungry selfish bastards then he's just not worth it. It's not like you're getting a Moss or TO. You're getting a guy who's numbers have gone down each year. Moss and TO might have issues but at least you can expect greatness on the field from them which is the most important thing! I think we'll be fine with Carter, Taylor & Tyree. Maybe even sign Bradford who can get downfield!

This is the guy the Giants should get especially since Carter can't even walk right now. And he'll be a heck of a lot cheaper than Burress. He was the Texans #1 guy before Andre Johnson blew up. here the scouting report from ESPN...

C. Bradford can stretch the field. The following is an ESPN Insider Scouting report on Bradford:Bradford has good size and speed and is a threat to score every time he touches the ball. His hands have improved and he is more consistent catching the football. Possesses tremendous body control and can adjust to the ball while it's in the air. Has adequate height and can win some jump balls. Fights for the ball while it's in the air and isnt afraid to go over the middle. Gets up field immediately after the catch, takes little time to reach top speed and is a threat to turn the short gain into the big play when gets a seam. However, Bradford isnt a crisp short-to-intermediate route-runner. He lacks great quickness, doesnt show great instincts and has problems locating the soft spots in zone coverage. He is not overly polished when it comes to setting up the defender. Considering his size, he is not as physical as he should be and lacks great upper body strength when releasing vs. press coverage. Overall, is still an excellent No. 3 receiver capable of taking it the distance and creating some mismatches as a slot receiver.

true.

WR is the least of our problems right now especially since they are trying to bring in a blocking TE to free up Shockey so that he becomes Mannings #1 guy. Releasing Hilliard tells me that the Giants firmly believe one of the younger guys taylor,tyree & Carter(if he can walk) is ready to step up and be an every down athlete. And there's always the draft, they always seem to find a diamond in the rough WR!

The Giants still need help and development in a lot of different areas. Especially cornerback and another safety will be nice if Shaun Williams stinks it up again! And I really want to replace Petigout... I DETEST THE GUY! in howard eisely-like fashion!!!!

now there's a rumored with the dolphins for Chris Chambers. He's played every game since his rookie year so he fits the Coughlin mold and he has but up some really consistently solid numbers with some bad QB's

the trade is for will allen and a draft pick

what's the draft pick? please don't say a 2nd rounder. i like his #'s...he's real solid, but again, he's not the #1 type guy that we need...i know the market is short on those types of guys, but maybe we'd be better off simply drafting 1 instead?

Chris Chambers would be excellent WR for us. The guy is a BIG TIME deep/TD threat. But I agree that we shouldn't give up a pick.

I like Henry from also he might have the most talent in the draft at WR but his attitude has really really killed him. How would he and Coughlin get along.

Where are you hearing about Chris Chambers? From what I've heard the Giants are talking to Miami, but they're talking about CB Patrick Surtain.

I think we can still get Burress now that he fired his agent and hired Drew Rosenhaus who has a great relationship with the Giants.
Maybe thats why burress is hiring him so that he can try to come back and make a deal with the giants.

I was thinking the same thing......I know alot of us judged him....well I know I did. I was calling him selfish, etc.....for him to fire his agent and have to wait 5 days before he can put his name back out there says alot.....Why else would he do this if he didn't want to be in NY?

We'll see what goes down. The Giants might have the upper hand now and could get Plaxico for cheaper than originally expected.

The Giants would then have the picks to use soley on offensive line and defense.
