Ladies and Gents, time for round 2…and then 3. Hopefully, we won’t run into the server overloads we mysteriously had around the 8th and 9th picks last night. Tonight, there are thirteen picks ahead of Big Blue: Do the Giants move and shake, or sit tight and grab the best player available when they’re on the clock? Does Jerry Reese throw his hat into the Albert Haynesworth market? Was Jerry Reese telling the truth about not trading Osi Umenyiora?
A brief look at the board: The MLB position still has players like Donald Butler, Sean Lee and Brandon Spikes to offer. Most Giants fans probably want Lamarr Houston, but setting yourself up for that will be like the Rolando McClain debacle all over again. DT’s Terrence Cody and Brian Price will probably be available. Fringe first round talent at OT is on the board for now in Charles Brown and Roger Saffold, and the second and third rounds are deep in CB talent this year. Let’s see how Reese plays his cards.
For now, try not to set yourselves up for a particular player. As we saw last night, our server is not emotionally capable of handling such startling disappointment when those guys get ripped off the board and shipped to some backwater NFL graveyard like Oakland or Buffalo. In order to better serve the G101 community, we’re going to be opening a new thread every ten picks or so (not to mention upon any Giants trade or selection), so keep an eye out for updates.
Update: And the Rams are (again) on the clock!
33- St. Louis: Roger Saffold, OT, Indiana
34- Vikings: Chris Cook, DB, Virginia
35- Buccs: Brian Price, DT, UCLA
36- Cheifs: Dexter McCluster, RB, Ol’ Miss
37- Eagles: Nate Allen, S, USF
38- Browns: TJ Ward, DB, Oregon
39- Raiders Tampa Bay: Arrelious Benn, WR, Illinois
40- Dolphins: Koa Misi, OLB, Utah
Update: New thread up top.

we only have 1 pick in the 2nd right? its gonna be interestin
I dont see Spikes getting drafted today.
I’m Hoping for Linval Joseph with this second pick.
If we take Ducasse though I think they’re may be a riot with another raw guy lol.
To respond to Samard and someone else from the previous thread: that KFC chicken sandwich is absolutely abhorrent.
Blasphemy
Well Joseph is raw tooo….
But man is he good, 6’4 320 and fast. Another project though
BTW with the JPP pick…so much for JR picking kids from big schools.
Dont think hes that much of a project…
and not picking guys who come in for visits. so much for that theory
Sam –
2 yrs experience in a small school. Not that consistent, really shined towards the end of the year though
maybe project was bad usage. but you get my drift
3 years….
How is ECU or USF not a big school?
They arent big schools as far as producing NFL Talent goes.
Yeah but they’ve still thrown out guys recently. Its not like the level of competition is THAT bad. Maybe in CUSA. But its not like the Sun Belt or anything lol
True, but neither is it the SEC or a school like Miami or USC.
anyone interested in throwing in say a 4th or 5th for john henderson?
jeez kiper has donald butler goin number 45 overall
For all of those who wanted to trade a 3rd rounder for Kirk Morrison…we can sign him for the vet minimum next week after Oakland releases him…
You think they release him??
Good if we could pick up a MLB of his caliber for the vet minimum I’d do it in a second.
If we could like things, how facebook does it…I would give a like to SimonGC’s post
Mike Shanahan: “Albert Haynesworth will not be traded”
Posted by Michael David Smith on April 23, 2010 5:40 PM ET
Redskins coach Mike Shanahan was emphatic in an appearance on NFL Network Friday afternoon that he will not trade defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth.
“No,” Shanahan said when asked by Rich Eisen whether there was any possibility he’d trade Haynesworth. “It’s not going to happen. There’s a lot of rumors, a lot of speculation that’s been going on here for the last month. But Albert Haynesworth will not be traded.”
So there you have it. Despite a previous report on NFL Network today saying Haynesworth would be traded, Shanahan is adamant that it won’t happen.
Which means the only way Haynesworth can be traded now is if Shanahan is lying
