I hope you're right about Dayne..would only help the Jints. B-)

I hope he finally lives up to potential, it would be great for the Giants but I will have to see it to believe it. ;-)

Dayne will absolutely be abominable this year. He is so slow to the line and I don't even think he will average over 3 ypc. Barber on the other hand will have a good year. He has proven he has the skills to carry the ball between the 20's. He has averaged 4.5 ypc for his career and is a great receiver. Most fumbling problems and droped balls is a lack of concentration which can be corrected. I think Coughlin's presence will help Barbers fumbling problems.

You're joking, right? :-D If not, what makes you think that?


I'm joking, but I actually think Dayne will be pretty good this year.

Tiki's situation looks a lot like Curtis Martin. He's a lot younger than Curtis, but Tiki is also too cheap to afford hand stickum and a wrist strengthener.

Barber has the talent to bust out for big yardage but the TDs aren't there for whatever reason. Good #3 RB.... in the 4th round or later.

In NFL Europe maybe.

Huh? C-Mart loses 1.5 fumbles per season, how does he need stickum?

for anyone who is thinking about takin tiki as there number two back, dont. id rather risk it on a guy like julius jones than tiki, at least if julius doesnt put up, its not that big of a letdown, he is a risky pick, but tiki is just an all out let down this year just like last.

I'm with most on avoiding Tiki. Although Dayne probably won't get 20 carries a game he will get enough to take a chunk of Tiki's production away. I've never liked Barber anyway, his knack for fumbles really hurts his value.

The Giants have joined the Browns as a do not draft anyone team. I'm sure they can find someone better than Dorsey Levens to steal goaline carries this season. Tiki will be worthless in most scoring systems.

He is saying that Tiki needs the stickum. Tiki fumbles.

Tiki is like Curtis in that they get yards but few TDs.
