Toomer and Ward Discuss Returning To Giants
Tom Rock on his blog for Newsday writes that Derrick Ward‘s reps will meet with the Giants next week to discuss the possibility of him 
returning to the Giants next year.
Ward, who along with Brandon Jacobs surpassed the 1,000 yard mark plans on being back with the Giants, even though the chances seem remote.
“It will work itself out,” the running back said. “I plan on being back. I can’t imagine it not working out.”
Rock writes that Amani Toomer has had some discussions about returning to the Giants already, despite the fact many have figured he’s already going to be leaving.
“I believe that there have been some preliminary talks (between his agent and the Giants) but how far they’ve gone I don’t really know yet. I also don’t really know how much interest the Giants have or how they view my role so I’ll have to wait and see if their ideas and my own can mesh. If I am to come back, I want to have a chance to compete. I don’t want to just come back and have no role in the offense.”
Peter Wade relays a report from Mike Garafolo at the Star-Ledger that doesn’t make it seem likely Toomer will return. Garafolo speculates on the Giants plans for receivers.
Something tells me the Giants have an ace up their sleeve. Something drastic must be coming. Anquan Boldin? Tony Gonzalez? Braylon Edwards? Trade up in the draft for a top receiver? No idea, but they have to do something … right?
Hat tip to Nathaniel for the news.
