GIANTS POSSIBLY LOOKING INTO RB BENJARVIS GREEN-ELLIS

"Ian Rapport of the Boston Herald reports that BenJarvus Green-Ellis of the <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with New England Patriots" href="http://www.giants101.com/tag/new-england-patriots/" rel="tag nofollow">New
England Patriots</a> is actively shopping himself on the open market. And while
the Patriots are open to bringing the reliable veteran back, they are not
willing to over-pay for him with Shane Vereen and Steven Ridley in the
fold.


Green-Elliis visited with the Cincinnati Bengals yesterday and has a
"mystery" suitor whom he is set up to visit with today. Rapport tells Giants 101
that it "wouldn't surprise him" if that team was the <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with New York Giants" href="http://www.giants101.com/tag/new-york-giants/" rel="tag nofollow">New York
Giants</a>.</p>


<a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Tom Coughlin" href="http://www.giants101.com/tag/tom-coughlin/" rel="tag nofollow">Tom
Coughlin</a> and <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Jerry Reese" href="http://www.giants101.com/tag/jerry-reese/" rel="tag nofollow">Jerry
Reese</a> would surely love to have a back like Green-Ellis in the fold after
losing <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Brandon Jacobs" href="http://www.giants101.com/tag/brandon-jacobs/" rel="tag nofollow">Brandon
Jacobs</a>. Green-Ellis has never once fumbled in his career and has scored 24
touchdowns over the last two seasons. Jacobs was the Giants touchdown vulture,
scoring a franchise leading 56 rushing touchdowns in his career and another four
receiving.</p>


Green-Ellis should not demand top dollar on the open market and is a young,
durable player who is only 26 years old."</p>

Would easily be the best sleeper pick up of 2012.

One word: solid. That's it when it comes to BGE, he will follow his blocks and he very disciplined to his gap responsibilities.

He won't give you incredible production, and I wouldn't call him a home run threat, but he can handle anything and everything else.

He runs hard,doesn't fumble,lower $$, & could have a more productive career on another team.....I'm all for it...

Please please please

Before we get our motors running in overdrive, this is a "guess" by a media head.

I'd rather they didn't spend money on a RB through FA. Go through the draft, save, and use the money to lock up some of our guys.

[RoanokeFan]

It might make more sense if we didn't have or were looking to replace Bradshaw.

[Neverend]

Yeah, an unspectacular technically sound runner doesn't give you any kind of lateral or home run ability. Can easily find a back like that Day 3 in the draft
