Speaking of Patriot draft picks...why not just send that 1st rounder to Pitt for Mike Wallace? You think he'd want a contract too big for the Patriots? That makes a ton of sense to me, but maybe I'm missing something.
we're usually relecutant to drop big money (which i figure wallace would want) on people outside of QB and DL. also, WR is especially an area they're careful about. i like lloyd play more than wallace, given the familiarity with daniels. while wallace is definitely better, we don't need THAT much ability for that price. just someone to open things up a bit more downfield and at the sticks. i wonder if ocho is dunzo now. branch's status is up in the air, but imagine rolling out welker, gronk, hernandez, lloyd, and ocho

^Oh, I understand the Patriots are masters at getting the most bang for their buck. Very pragmatic in their approach. BUT...could you imagine a nucleus of Wallace/Hernandez/Gronk/Welker.
That's an exceptional (and young) receiving corp that wouldn't need to be addressed for several years. You'd have every receiving level covered. Deep threat. Check. Short to medium routes. Check. Redzone targets. Check. Defenses would not sleep trying to find ways to defend those guys every play.
But I'm sure though with Daniels back, Lloyd will be productive with Brady throwing him the ball. And truthfully, offense was not the Patriots downfall last year. I imagine with many of their guys coming back from injuries (their center...funny how the Jets lost Mangold for 1 month and cried day and night while nobody mentions the Pats center going down for the year) and several defensive players, you guys will be favorites again. The most glaring need is pass rusher. I wouldn't be surprised if you went after Wimbley. He fits that Derrick Burgess mold closely.

Wimbley is going to get paid I'd be surprised if the Pats drop that money. And getting Lloyd for the price that they got him for makes much more sense than spending big money on Wallace and losing a 1st round pick.

^ you're both right on wimbley. as soon as i saw he was cut, i was like, "please football gods, have us sign him". some inside the organization already said they won't be going after him though. typical %#$!

But Gonzalez hardly played with Peyton. His first years he was ok, but he progressed. Next three years he was hurt or this last season when Peyton was out, he didn't play a lick with Manning.

Dreessen caught loads of key stuff for us, whether it was redzone tds or long conversions. Would have been nice to cut
bum &@^ Jacoby Jones in order to re-sign him, but stuff is still up in the air right now.

I want to hear from Giants fans about Manningham. I saw first hand of what he can do last year, twice against SF and then vs. New England in the Super Bowl, but why didn't NYG re-sign him? The 49ers signed him for 2 years but I have not seen what the numbers look like yet. Was he asking for too much money? The reason I ask is because he was pretty damn important to NYG last year IMO. Manningham didn't put up as many numbers as Cruz but he was arguably just as important. NYG's season could have had a totally different outcome without Manningham in the picture IMO.
I honestly can't wait to see what SF looks like on offense next season. If Peyton signs tomorrow, wow.

I like Manningham he is very fast.....the problem with the giants is their number one is nicks and cruz is their slot guy otherwise known as number 2 target for them......giants were not going to pay for a guy who is 3rd option in the passing game and he doesnt think he is a number 3....he did have 900 years a few years ago...they also have to pay cruz and nicks soon....would pay them now......i think cruz is better but if giants would have put manningham in the slot i think he would have had 1100 yards at least.....i think its a good pickup but can can Smith get him the ball deep? will he be used in the slot?
hopefully peyton doesnt go to the 9ers otherwise Manningham will look like a pro bowler
slot guy is so important in the NFL now you need 3 good WRs, more and more WRs want to be that slot guy
he has some big drops....but he more than made up for them in the super bowl
oh and this drop was clutch
