We should trade up and get TE Coby Fleener

"TE coby Fleener just ran 4.45 40"

Todd McShay


This guy is big. This guy is fast. This guy can catch. This guy can run good routes. This guy is the real deal.

Did I read correctly that Mario Manningham
will not be playing with the Giants this season?
Who will replace him at WR if this is true?

Are you serious?

MM is a niner ... was a FA, so u know the highest bidder</P>


i don't like trading up (ha, except for Eli of course), u seem to always have to pay a lot to move 4 or 5 places ... if he falls to us, then fine</P>

Unless Reese is so in love with Fleener, and feel he will be gone at 32, I don't see him trading up. He values his draft picks. </P>

Now maybe I can see him taking him at 32, if he has Fleener as the BPA at that spot.</P>

Harbaugh may want to see him in a 49er jersey as well.</P>

[quote user="tonyt830"]Harbaugh may want to see him in a 49er jersey as well.</P>[/quote]That becomes a scary offense. Great OL, one elite TE, and another TE with an elite skill set, two vertical threat receivers, one possession guy, a solid (aging) RB core, and an efficient QB in his 2nd year with a QB guru coach.

Mike Mayock said that he was not a 1st round pick. He went on to say that there are no TE in the draft that are 1st rounders. Kiper says that we will pick him so that means it will never happen.

Still wouldn't draft him. The Giants don't utilize TEs in the passing game enough to warrant trading up for him or drafting him in the first rd. We like our TEs block first and pass catch later. Fleener is the type of guy you put in the slot. Gronkowski and Hernandez work because Hernandez is more of a H-back.

Giants will be happy with Bennett and wait for Ballard. Plus they have that guy Hopkins that they like.

Go for O-line first unless a stud like Keuchly, Hightower, Barron, Mercilus fall to us.

Giants TE coach Mike Pope is at Standford Pro Day today to check out TE Coby Fleener.

I still don't think we draft a TE in the first but who knows. If Pope really likes him then maybe they draft him and let go of Beckum or Pascoe
