About Jared Blank

Giants. Mets. Rangers. Knicks. U of Michigan Tool. APC. True Story: circa 2004 I meet Eli Manning at a signing at the Palisades Mall. Me: "Good luck this weekend E" (as if I've been friends with "E" since we were in Middle School.) Eli: "Thanks" (or something that sounded like that). Manning went out that weekend and went 17-37 162 yards 1 TD and 2 INT with a QB Rtg. of 45.1 in his first career NFL start (a loss to the Falcons). We haven't spoken since.

    After Dansby, Boley was my guy. I like it very much.

    Also, unrelated but I thought if the Saints resigned Vilma the Giants get their 1st rounder. Orcwas I’m mistaken?

      before free agentcy then we would have gotten it.

  • David Jacks

    koko – the Saints and vilma waited until the free agency perios started and then hammered out a deal. Most likely they spoke with Vilma about loosing a first round pick, and he said he would wait so the team did not suffer, because 17 hours later he was signed sealed and delivered.
