Looking ahead to cutdowns and waiver (EDIT: First names announced)

That Mayo Bowl which cost us a shot at Hunter - Carter: plus future Draft picks is really coming back to haunting us.

I think most everyone agrees that Austin and DJ James were ahead of Battle.

So he was 6th CB at best, and not the top development player.

Maybe we're trading for CB depth for one of our bubble veterans.

Sorry thanks I was mistaking Battle for James.
 
Maybe they don’t feel they need so many corners, or Javon Baker is taking his spot on special teams?
They need a lot of corners to run Vrabels defense. I will be shocked if they keep less than 6, Battle got beaten out
 
He had a Strong TC from reports.
Rewatch the last Giants game (if you don’t mind torturing yourself…). He was one of the problems and probably lost any chance to be on the team with that performance. I thought he showed enough in the other games to be worth a PS spot.
 
I wonder how much of Ryland's post Pats success played into keeping the draft pick this time at kicker?

Very few kickers are money straight out of the gate, Vinatieri tolled in NFL Europe for a season, the Ghost missed a few big kicks early.

His leg is weak though, that and not kicking in the elements in college I don’t get it I will be the first to eat crow if he’s even a pretty good kicker.

Just hope he doesn't cost us a game... we don't want to waste this season.

Adam also cost Pete Carroll his job when he missed 3 makable FG's in the 99 season that would have won or tied games. The kicking game has changed a lot since Adam was here. Not only are 55 yd FG's now in every kicker's "range", if you aren't kicking at over an 80% success rate, you are out of a job

Where would we be right now without Campbell though?

Obviously we could have traded and still got him but nothing's guaranteed so I file it under F around and find out or just be happy with how it worked and be grateful for Campbell.

Cleveland got 2026 First Rounder from the Jags that should have been us. 2026 Draft is going to be very good.

I understand that but what if we fell in love with Hunter?

The no Oline and no 2026 pick.

And then to go even further we take Hunter and then we panic in RD 2 and go LT instead of Henderson.

Like I said I'm good with how things ended up and would rather not F around and find out how else it could have gone. And I was completely on team Hunter going into the draft.
