The post Weekly NYG recap: Victor Cruz & Rashad Jennings were released first appeared on Bleedbigblue.com.

Moments after releasing wideout Victor Cruz, the Giants also alerted leading rusher Rashad Jennings of his release. Confirmation and press release link from the New York Giants.

The Giants today began their offseason roster restructuring by releasing two accomplished offensive players, wide receiver Victor Cruz and running back Rashad Jennings, their leading rusher in 2016.

Naturally the Giants will look to add to these skill positions in free agency and the upcoming draft. Best of luck to Rashad.

The post Giants Release Leading Rusher Rashad Jennings first appeared on Bleedbigblue.com.

Now that the season is over, I would like to share my ideas for Free Agency. My ideas may seem out of the box, but please bare with me. If Reese follows this, we dominate (IMO). My goal is to fix the team in free agency and then draft best player available in the draft. Please note a PFF score of 50.0 is average. My goal is for the team is to be FASTER on field in 2017 and also to leave us in position to resign Odell in future and draft a QB this year, which in my opinion we won’t do if we don’t fix lines in FA.

1. Release Dwayne Harris

Replace him with free agent Coradelle Patterson(PFF rating of 67.2 for 2016). Why? Even though Harris dominates on kick coverage he is mediocre on the depth chart receiver wise. Adding a more explosive option that is younger and can add SPEED(4.39 forty yard dash) to what I feel is an average speed team would be very smart. He is 25 years old, and would fill the need for a bigger(6’2″ 220) wideout in our WR group. I also add FA Marquise Goodwin of Buffalo. He is track fast(4.29 forty) and can catch. Plays specials and as a 5th wideout he is a nice change of pace. Deadly potential on WR screens as well. Please Note: I love Terrell Pryor but I believe Browns overpay to keep him as they have 104 mil in cap room.(not a typo).

2. Allow Hankins to leave as a free agent.

Allow Jonathan Hankins to leave as a free agent. Cut Robert Thomas and replace them with Dontari Poe(PFF rating of 70.5 2016) formerly of Chiefs. 27 years old NT/DT. He is a superior athlete that can get sacks up the middle. He runs a 4.98 forty yard(see my theme here?) dash at 320lbs. He even threw a td pass this year, while getting successful snaps in the goalie ala refrigerator Perry.

3. Release Will Beatty.

Bobby Hart and sign free agent Larry Warford(PFF rating of 82.0 for 2016) to play RG. He is 26 and is the type of fundamentally sound run bully we need inside to rebuild this line to elite status. a stomach of PUGH/WESTBURG/WARFORD would make major alleys to RUN rock in. If Warford signs with Lion, I would add Luke Joekel instead. He played Tackle and Guard and is 25 from the Jags as a Free agent.

4. Release Larry Donnell, Will Johnson, Matt Lacosse.

Release Larry Donnell, Will Johnson, Matt Lacosse and sign Levine Toilolo(PFF rating of 67.6 for 2016) of the ATL falcons to play TE, he is an unrestricted free agent. He showed himself to be a top 12 blocker and even flashed promise as a catcher/red zone threat. The 6’8″ 265lbs Stanford grad is smart, strong and gonna be cheaper than name brand guys while coming from a super bowl appearance. He and Adams would be like twin towers in the redzone at 6’8″ and 6’6″ with Tye giving quality back up minutes…. As a back up plan I also LOVE me some Jack Doyle(PFF rating 76.0) of Indianapolis. 26 year old and blocks like an old school guy, just doesn’t have the overall upside of Levine.

5. Release Leon Hall, Coty Sensabaugh, restructure DRC.

Release Leon Hall, Coty Sensabaugh, restructure DRC to 3.3 mil(instead of 6.8) per plus 1.2 mill upfront(with incentives) which should drop his cap hit by about 2.3 mil and sign free agent Sterling Moore(PFF rating of 72.3), free agent from New Orleans. I don’t know if you remember but this little f&#ker but he gave Odell issues when they met. He is fast and agile and nasty. He can play on the island like he did versus Odell or slot and he tackles. had 44 of them this year with 13 break ups and 2 picks. I see him as depth this year and a starter next year when DRC is unrestricted.

6. Release Marshall Newhouse, and do not resign John Jerry, move Eric Flowers to RT.

Release Marshall Newhouse, and do not resign John Jerry, move Eric Flowers to RT and sign Riley Reiff(PFF rating of 67.5) to play LT. 28 years old free agent from Detroit, he is durable and playing better ever year of his career. He has played on both sides of the line.

7. Release Rashad Jennings, Shane Vareen, Orleans Darkwa, Bobby Rainey.

sign Latavius Murray(PFF rating 72.0), 26 year old free agent from Raiders. He is the every down guy that we need to run inside and outside. With healthy mix of Perkins and whoever we draft, I think this unit could be a strength again. I only cut Vareen because to me he and Perkins similar with regard to role moving forward.

8. Release Trevin Wade, Mykelle Thompson and Nat Behre.

Release Trevin Wade, Mykelle Thompson and Nat Behre and sign free agent Dre Kilpatrick(PFF rating 74.7) from the Bengals. fiesty and long with a rangy style(6’2″) we lack in secondary. He can swing out to FS too in certain packages. 27 years old, he could be a player here for a good long time. Played huge games on island at BAMA. Young and seasoned. 46 tackles 3 picks 10 deflections in 2016 plus he and Landon already brothers from that SEC championship team.

9. Release Kevin Sheppard, JT Thomas.

Release Kevin Sheppard, JT Thomas and sign free agent Linebacker Kevin Minter(PFF rating of 81.0 for 2016). He had 88 tackles 3.5 sacks for Arizona last year and is 26 years old. This LSU player is a homeboy of Odell too having played under Les Myles for the tigers together. He adds SPEED and versatility to a mediocre group. He, Robinson and Kennard would be a solid group. Add in BJ Goodson and whoever we add in draft and we now have guys to cover the ever changing role of the leagues top TEs.

10. Resign JPP. Pay Cruz 15% over the league minimum.

Resign JPP. Pay Cruz 15% over the league minimum with incentives.
If we were to pull this off we could add game changers in draft. When I did the math here(roughly), I found that this is very much possible of us, assuming we don’t pay JPP the way we paid Vernon. We need JPP to take a discount of sorts. If not, I let him walk, promote Romeo Okwara and draft a replacement before end of round three of 2017 Draft.

The post 10 Moves To Improve The New York Giants For 2017 first appeared on Bleedbigblue.com.

The Giants came into the game 9-4 with a 10-7 victory last week over their long time division rival Dallas Cowboys. This past Sunday they defeat the Detroit Lions 17-6.

Well how did Eli Do?
Manning started 11 for 11, the best start of his career before finishing the game 20/28 for 201 yards. He also added 2 touchdowns one to Sterling Shepard, and to Odell Beckham Jr. Manning ended with a final QB rating of 115.3.

Sunday also marked Justin Pugh’s return.
It was strongly felt he could help the rushing game. Carries were split between Paul Perkins, Shane Vereen and Rashad Jennings for a total 114 yards. Jennings and Perkins both had 25 carries to Vereen’s 14.

And what about Odell Beckham? 
Odell  was targeted 8 times for 6 receptions netting 64 yards. To cap it off he added a clutch one handed (left) catch for the game winning touchdown.

Detroit Lions are now 9-5 after the loss to the New York Giants in rainy conditions at MetLife Stadium. The G-Men kept the Lions rushing game under check only allowing 56 yards on the ground, and 268 yard in the air.

The Giants held Matthew Stafford and company to a game with no touchdowns on the board, Something the Giants have done to opponents on 18 straight drives prior coming into the game. With a 10-4 record late in the season the Giants are looking for a play-off spot for the first time since 2011.

This weeks matchup comes with a healthy serving of anxiety, well at least I can settle my jitters knowing that Baltimore has its own set of struggles. We asked Chris Schisler of Ebonybird.com to defend his beloved Ravens.

1st up the Baltimore Ravens.

While my confidence is at an all time low with my Ravens (and I expect an ugly football game) here are three ways the Ravens can win on Sunday.

Defensive Dominance.

The Ravens defense is dominant. Currently the Ravens rank third in total defense. Baltimore only gave the Washington Redskins offense 10 points; the other six points came on special teams. If the Ravens offense would have just been half-way functional, they would have won.
Baltimore ranks 5th in pass defense and 4th in rushing defense. At all three levels the Ravens have standout stars. Brandon Williams is the best nose guard in football. Zach Orr has stepped up in a big way. In his first season as a starter Orr has 27 tackles and an interception. Eric Weddle and Ladarius Webb are making a huge difference in the back-end. I know one thing about this game, the Ravens defense will give them a chance to win.

History Oddly Repeating Itself

The 2012 Ravens lost to the Redskins, fired their offensive coordinator and walloped the Giants 33-14. The 2016 Ravens lost to the Redskins, fired their offensive coordinator and have an odd chance to repeat history. It just seems like it’s going to happen again.
The Ravens are desperate to win this game. Going back to the Brian Billick era, the Ravens have done their best with their backs against the wall. Look for the Ravens to come out with a vengeance.

Back to the Run Game.

The Ravens averaged over six yards per carry last week. For some inexplicable reason the Ravens failed to get back to the running game. The run game was supposed to be the key to the entire offense. That’s why Trestman is no longer the offensive coordinator.
Look for the Ravens to get back to the run. The Ravens will then have the play-action pass game ready for Joe Flacco. Marty Mornhinweg is going to make the Ravens a balanced an unpredictable offense.
Terrance West is the next big star in the NFL. The Ravens just need to let him do his thing, running the football with authority.

And for the G-Men.

It’s going to happen.

Every week we get into the games thinking that this is the week that the Giants offense will break out. We wait for the 30+ performances, there are too many talented actors on the offensive side of the ball for this not to happen. MetLife Stadium should be a nice environment for the offensive line to collect themselves. Look for Eli & Company to score early and get the crowd behind them.

Welcome back Rashad.

While Rashad Jennings numbers might not be there he is only averaging 3.6 yards per carry, his intangibles are off the charts. Jennings brings leadership, the ability to pick up blocks, and is known to break a tackle or two.

The Giants will still give fellow backs Orleans Darkwa, & Paul Perkins touches, but with Jennings in he can keep the defense honest.

DRC.

Cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie said he’s healthy enough to go on Sunday. A ready Cromartie could provide the defensive line enough time to get to Ravens QB Joe Flacco. The Giants found themselves thin at corner when rookie CB Eli Apple and DRC both missing games together.
DRC & Janoris Jenkins is a solid duo that should give the Ravens wideouts a difficult time.

Final word.

This is going to be a close game. Because we’re a Giants Blog, 24-21 NYG! Good luck to all.
