please no! he'll only play 1/2 the games!!!

definately....especially since he already missed.....ZERO games in his career @ LSU! :w00t:

Injuries catch up to you....plus, Ellis is better

This comming from the guy that wants C. Long, WE HAVE A DE ALREADY!

Anyway i want Jake Long or Ellis, sorry no pics

Are you counting Jamaal Anderson? you shouldn't

why? he isnt a DE? he isnt on the team? Why? HEs had 1 year!!!! You think people just start great with no time to develope? We took Anderson because we knew he would take some time to develope. To me C. Long is a wasted pick, paying 2 guys top 10 money to play the same position? Yeah thats smart.

then trade Abraham for a third rd pick

how about NO! Why make MORE holes then we already have?? We need DT and OL help right now.

He played in all games at LSU fighting through a cheapshot injury. Now he has time to heal up and become even better. He has a lot more upside than Ellis although they are almost equal. But I still give Dorsey the nod because he tore up competition all of the time while Ellis....well if I saw him play good teams more often I might change my mind.

See sig. (He probably won't be our pick, but I'm holding out hope)

Ya keep holding that hope.... drafting a DE... ? not gonna ever happen with the 3rd pick

Thanks Dimitroff. Keep thinking that we're set at DE.

Lol.. i don't have to think it... its pretty obvious... we just invested a top 10 pick in one and we have abraham.... how could any GM justify drafting a DE for this team over a DT or a OT.... just think about it.. it makes absolutely no sense :w00t::w00t:

So the Giants shouldn't have drafted Tuck or Kiawanucka.... Good to know.

Wow you really dont get it... we are not the Giants... we NEED a TRUE DT or a OT ... i mean i just dont understand what you are thinking ...

Dude, we just spent a first round pick at DE last year, regardless of how well he did or didn't play last year.

Spending another first round pick on another DE is just flat-out crazy.

Once again you prove you know virtually nothing about football. Were you watching the same team I was last year? The one that couldn't pressure the QB? The one that had basically no depth whatsoever on the DL? You do realize that Abraham doesn't have much longer with us, right? You do realize that Jamaal Anderson didn't show any signs of becoming a dominant pass rusher, right? You do realize that Mallard and Carrington, our depth pass-rushers are no longer with the team right? I could go on and on. Nothing would make me happier than to read through all of the "Fire Dimitroff" threads that will undoubtedly start if we're fortunate enough to land Chris Long. Have a nice day.

Tuck was picked up in the 3rd round for depth, and Kiwanuka they moved to LB.. they could have done a better job and actually selected a LB with his pick, but instead they got a guy playing somewhat out of position and they still aren't sure if he is gonna mature at the position.

I love chris long as a player and I agree we could use some more good players on the DLine any way we can get them, but when you are in the kind of situation we are in right now, with so many holes and rebuilding, you really gotta fill a position that is glaringly void of talent right now with our first pick.

look how the Giants just won the SB....always a good thing to be relentless with as many quality pass rushers as possible

Honestly, if we ended up with either Dorsey, Jake Long, Mcfadden, Chris Long, or Ryan :crazy: . I would be very happy, I think all are good talents and I would take any of them. However, for our team my first choice is Jake Long, he is the best fit for our needs, is a safe pick, and has no off the field issues. He would greatly help our O-Line and make Blalock that much better. Plus he will also make our QB better and our RB better.

I believe Chris Long is the best player in the draft hands down, but we do have Abraham and invested a top 10 pick last year in a DE, so we should see how that plays out. Plus, I believe he will be gone because MIA will take him.

Good valid points, and I tend to agree; however, I don't think you can pass on a future Hall of Fame player with a Hall of Fame father.....

I guarantee if he's there, we'll take him, but he won't be

***Yaaawwwwnnn*** .... you NEVER get depth with a top 5 pick... You get a player that will start.... do you know how much money it will cost to sign Chris Long... that is just absurd... Anderson was in his first year.. Abraham will be fine... as of right now it is not a pressing need... and the fact that you even contemplate getting DEPTH with our top 5 pick when we have SO many holes shows me how much YOU know about football... Have a crappy day
