Stephen Jones: Escobar may be ready week 1

[RS12]

Good thing Escobar is going to be back. Where else would we find a WR who we ask to in-line block?

 

[Carson]

My money is on they both start the year on the PUP

 

[Alexander]

Oh goody. Can't wait for his no production.

No reason to believe that. The question is where is Escobar in terms of lengthening of his Achilles. I'm not worried about Dunbar now.

They like him in the RZ esp near the GL. He and Witten are a handful down there. I'm disappointed he hasn't been more productive. He's just not going to get a lot of looks with Witten around and I expect Witten to play another 2-4 years.

 

[Risen Star]

Now the question becomes, will the Giants be ready?

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Dude ran a 4.84 healthy....wonder what he runs now coming off an achilles tear?

Tony Gonzalez also ran a 4.80 40 time. I don't think running was ever his problem. Witten, blocking more to do with not playing much.

Everyone is overlooking the fact this came from Stephen and not Jerry.

 

[Cowboy06]

I was thinking the same thing...I really had high hopes for him, but at some point a player is who they are going to be.

 

[the_h0wey]

Thank God. We will definitely need our 3rd string tight end

 

[Alexander]

Everyone is overlooking the fact this came from Stephen and not Jerry.

I don't think it makes any difference.

People like to pretend he is more pragmatic, but that starts and stops with finances.

Otherwise, he is in lock step with his father.

True, but Martellus is one of the best TEs in football and he got Escobar'd in Dallas.

I'd rather hear this sort of stuff from the head coach, myself.

 

[The Natural]

Oh goody. Can't wait for his no production.

not sure how much of that is his fault. Like a lot of other guys in this offense they just cant seem to feature him

 

[Cowboy06]

True, but Martellus is one of the best TEs in football and he got Escobar'd in Dallas.

Grrrr, I hate it when people have facts and are witty in the same post...unless it's me.

Perhaps our coaches just aren't that good. Just saying.

This is one I think its very fair to blame on the coaches. They love to draft TEs in the second round that they don't use for 4 years behind Witten.

Except when he isn't.
