I always thought blue chip = "can't miss" prospects, red chip = good prospects.

Their own top pick Nabers doesnt have a color designation, so i dont think it has anything to do with position on their draft board. I dont think they'd let something like that leak.

I think the position on the board tells us what they think about individual players.

Just being up there means they’re interested, where they’re located means how much. Could be wrong.

I think the position on the board is where one was actually drafted, nothing to do with how the Giants had them ranked.

 

[Grogan14]

Giants had Baker in purple. So they think he has character concerns.
Probably true

Most of the rookies are showing signs of life. Let's hope they keep on grinding and improving.

Yes! It's very encouraging. If Brissett can continue his solid play into week one than we may have a surprisingly decent offense. I won't hold my breath though.

Judon!!!

Godchaux's extension has to be in reaction to Barmore's diagnosis. But still, a lot of money being thrown around for little production.
This might be the reason we have to trade Judon, especially if we're that far apart on a deal.
Too bad the guy won't honor his word less than a week ago to play under contract.
That's what you get when you try to be a "players" coach - suddenly players think they can push you around.

Judon!!!

Judon needs to hire Rosenhaus.

Judon!!!

Our guy judon needs to get an agent PF2... it's hurting him...

I said the same thing!!

Of course no one player can replace what judon has been as a player and leader. What last gave us what what life was like without judon and gonzo. Fortunately we had Barmore. Now if judon isn't here other guys will have opportunities to show what they can do. This is more reason the offense should want to hold thier end of the bargain.

He's plenty of production, it just isn't the kind that shows up in a box score.

Great minds!

I thought I’d seen him mention an agent, but he’s clearly been taking the lead himself even if he does have one.

One good reason to have an agent is to provide a layer of insulation to protect against this kind of stuff.

Agreed. Even Lamar was advised by his own organization of all people that he should look into hiring and agent. They know contract law.

The 10% a player thinks he saving by not hiring an agent he will pay more in taxes. I'll never understand a player not hiring an agent your costing yourself $$$$.

Judon!!!

Trouble in paradise!!

I like Lazar a lot. As someone who admittedly doesn't know a lot about Xs and Os, I always feel like I learn something from his articles. This is a nice sense of what is and isn't working so far through camp.

He is my go to guy now. Unlike 90% of the sportswriters out there, he has gotten better every single year in terms of mastering the nomenclature of the game, understanding it, and analyzing it in simple terms for the everyday reader.
