    Big Blue Gets Bigger

    http://www.nypost.com/p/sports/giant...JgNgjJn60XlbjJ

    Excerpt: "From wherever he might be watching, George Young, the late, great Giants general manager, has to be delighted with what his former team has done in first two days of the 2013 NFL Draft.

    Young, one of the colorful characters in the league back in the day when he used to call the shots for the Giants from the bowels of the old Giants Stadium, once coined the phrase, “The dance of the elephants.’’ That was his playful reference to teams going on a run drafting big offensive and defensive linemen.


    Well, the Giants, in an effort to bulk up and bolster their rushing attack, run defense and pass rush, did some serious dancing with elephants in the first three rounds the last two nights.


    On Thursday night, they beefed up their offensive line by picking 6-foot-4, 301-pound Syracuse offensive tackle Justin Pugh in the first round. They followed that last night by picking 6-2, 320-pound Ohio State defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins in the second round and then added 6-5, 250-pound Texas A&M defensive end Damontre Moore in the third round.

    GIANTS DRAFT SELECTIONS


    So, in a span of about 22 hours, the Giants added some 871 pounds to their respective lines of scrimmage.
    Their two picks last night specifically targeted 2012 weaknesses in run defense and pass rush." Read more...




    Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience!

    2nd and 3rd rounds really picked it up for us. Not really happy with the first round pick, could have done better. Now its a question of, can they play in the NFL!

    This can't be right........so many fans hate what we've done so far it can't possibly be accurate.
    And now, in the interest of equal time, here is a message from the National Institute of Pancakes: It reads, and I quote, “**** waffles.”......G Carlin

    You are going to warm up to Pugh I think. But it always comes down to what they DO and not who said what about them,

    If these stoopid media heads would just hang around in here more often, their news articles would be far more accurate.
