Giants Final 53 Man Roster Prediction | 1012

Hello and welcome back to Talkin' Giants presented by the Fnatic Sportsbook. Today is August 25th, 2026 and what Sean and I are doing is one more final time. A final 53-man roster prediction show, especially at the back end of the roster. Oh boy, is it fascinating this year to see how all of this is going to play out. Do they carry six, seven wide receivers? Do the thing with your hands. Do they carry eight, nine, ten offensive linemen? I had ten offensive linemen in the spring. I think that's a little overkill now. How is special teams going to play at impact? All that kind of fun stuff. So we're going to do it one more final time. And I think a big thing is at the time that we're recording this, I put out the Google sheet of all of you to fill out a 53-man roster with us. We have a very large good data set of 443 responses of what fans think and what all of you think the Giants are going to do. Sean, how are you doing, my friend? I'm doing great, Justin. I love this 53-man exercise. I got to look at exactly what I did the first time we did it, see what's changed. And it also reminded me that there's another point I want to bring up later on in the show that has not been discussed anywhere in this month of August about the Giants that I think is important to note. Okay. Well, you better make sure you don't forget that. No, I won't. There's so many things that I like. Oh, I want to talk about this. I want to talk about that. And then I seemingly always forget it. Did you talk about it on the show today? No, no, it is. It is as niche a talking Giants point is there. Great. I did not bring it. I love it. So just some updates for today. Malik Neighbors shedded the red non-contact jersey, and he's out there running with everybody else, which is awesome. Yeah. And John Horbaugh essentially got one step closer to telling us Malik Neighbors should be playing versus Dallas as well. When he met the media after practice, he said it's fair to connect the dots and assume he'll be ready for week one, which I think is a great sign. And look, this is it, man. We've been through two weeks of the preseason, so I think any of us, if we wanted Malik Neighbors to play in week one, you started circling either this week or next week is that week to see that next jump of that much more. So seeing it on a Monday going into week three of the preseason, I mean, that is beyond a welcome sight, Justin. Yep. Even if it's a limited snap count basis against Dallas, I think between what they did with AT last year, which I know it's a different coaching staff, but there's still some people there. I do think in terms of how they've treated their franchise players coming off of some major injuries, I think it's been a best-case scenario as of right now, knocking on wood still for Malik Neighbors. And I also really do appreciate how they treated both of their ramp-ups with being patient. And even last year, we were like, when is Andrew Thomas going to get back out there? He's been practicing for weeks. The ramp-up that both of these guys have had, I think it's made them feel better about themselves and their rehab processes. And I think it's hopefully going to be better for both of them in the long run. It was good for Thomas in the long run last year. Hopefully it's good for Malik Neighbors in the long run, too. Absolutely. Cannot argue. Cannot disagree. Yeah. Theo Johnson goes down at the end of practice today, kind of like the most significant injury that's coming from Monday, but Harbaugh said what after practice, Sean? Again, I believe this. I just had this from Dan Duggan. He had a collision. Theo Johnson had a collision with Kayvon Thibodeau. He obviously slammed his helmet in frustration. He did walk off. It didn't even look like gingerly, according to reports. And John Harbaugh said after practice that he is not getting any indication that it is serious at all, and he believes Theo Johnson will be okay. So why Theo had that kind of reaction? Maybe it was more frustration than it was injury. Who knows? Yeah. Some other players that were not spotted at practice. Hyatt continues to be out. Tanner Conner, who's had a good summer. Hold on. Real quickly, Justin. Do you find it interesting that the Giants waived Ryan Miller, but are keeping Jalen Hyatt, who just is not practicing ever? I have. Maybe they hope that they get Hyatt on the practice squad. I don't know. How weird. Okay, but carry on. Yeah. Tanner Conner's had a good summer. Joshua Zutu. Harbaugh confirmed that it's a day-to-day thing that maybe he's hoping that he does play Friday versus the Jets, but he was not practicing today. And he also had Braxton Berrios, Francis Moenoa, Jermaine Illuminor with kind of like an unknown injury. Shelby Harris, Jack Kelly. They were all working on the side with trainers, and then Colton Hood did return to practice today. So that's all on the injury front. And good news on Hood, because he's going to have to play some significant reps versus the Jets, you would think. Yeah, and I kind of want him to play well and string together some good snaps, too, because I think he needs it for his summer. No doubt. The only other cleanup thing that we need to talk about stemming from last show is we had a whole segment of the show. And, you know, hey, we go live. We like to be first. That's kind of what we what we want to do as a show is, hey, how can we be first and get out there and have the reaction and take advantage of the moment? Because everybody wants to hear. Everybody wants to talk about the game that they just watched, right? So part of the risk of going live and being first is we didn't have the exact reason why Braxton Berrios and Darnell Mooney and some other guys did not play. And we kind of took it a little too far. Thinking, oh, those are those roster spots safe because especially we didn't have confirmation like during the game before the game of nothing. Turns out that Braxton Berrios is dealing with an injury and Darnell Mooney was at his brother's wedding. I mean, it tilts the whole conversation. So I wanted you to forcefully wear an L. I said that because it meant that Slayton was in some sort of trouble. And I refused to do that. You did. And I clearly have to take that back. So I was wrong. We were all wrong. And look, I'm not blaming the beat for this because they're all great reporters, many of which have been guests on the show. Their employers. I know what it's like dealing with employer. We all do did not keep them there for the game. And therefore, they all speculated on TV and had me enough believing and you as well that those two guys by virtue of not playing meant they were more safe than we thought. That was a lot of reporters had that feeling. And as it turns out, it was completely justified reasons why both are out. I would add, I know this is not an original take. It's been everywhere. I still can't believe that Darnell Mooney's twin brother would get married during the preseason of the NFL like that is wild to me. But nonetheless, very interesting. I do think it hurts Berrios more than Mooney, though. Justin, just from the standpoint of maybe he is fighting for a roster spot and not coming back out on Monday for a practice as well. I mean, that's a guy. I mean, we're talking about wide receiver six. I know he was punt returner one in that first depth chart. Now, suddenly, my eye goes towards his Berrios. So we'll see. Yeah, because, I mean, let's just face it. If Braxton Berrios is not healthy, he is not in good enough standing on this roster. All right, well, we're just going to hold your spot, buddy. Like, no, like they will give that six wide receiver spot to Otto Beckham Jr. And like, hell, you could even have wolves have this conversation with wide receivers. But you you can even have the confidence that Deontay Banks and a guy like Devin Singletary, they could be the two kick returners. Calvin Austin could be the punt returner. And then there you go. There's no need for a Braxton Berrios. So, yeah, he certainly is not healthy. Heading into 53 man cut down day or if they don't foresee that he's going to be healthy by the time the season starts, then. Yeah, this wide receiver six conversation, I think it vastly, vastly changes because I think very much that six wide receiver spot is shaped around special teams, as I think it kind of should be. So, yep, absolutely. And we were going to obviously deep dive more of that when we give our 53s here. Yeah, for sure. Do you have anything else lead off before we get into the 53? I kind of I kind of want to hear this bowl. Take the F now. Well, don't get yourself too hyped up. I just believe it's something nobody's heard anywhere. And I think it's just a giant point that if you are a diehard fan, you'll be like, that's a good point. And nobody has discussed it. No, you teased it. We have to hear it now. Well, can we start with the 53? Oh, OK. It ties into the 53. Yeah. Well, let's just say this, Justin, who are on your special teams? Fifty three. I mean, are you putting like the straight up specialists like kicker punter long snapper? I think that's what you let's just get those out of the way. And then because it'll lead to my take. And then we can do the offensive defense. Why don't we start that way on conventional? Yeah. All right. So let you want to start off a kicker, which is all of them. Give me who you got. OK, so kicker. Ninety three point five percent of people. Four hundred and fourteen responses out of four hundred and forty three say that Dominic Zavada is going to win. And then only eight point one percent say Ben Salls. Man, how the how the tides have changed since the spring, right? I think Zavada has really, really won the job. I also have Zavada as well. I have Zavada as well, though I would be very interested to see if a team is willing to trade for Ben Salls. He's perfect in his NFL career. Yeah, I think they are. I think they very much should. He's also been perfect through the preseason as well. So punter and long snapper. Well, punter Jordan Stout, I'm going to go with 100 percent. And they only have one each. So, yeah, Jordan Stout and Ben Mann. OK, so here's what I was going to say about Ben Mann. This is my point. My hot take circles around Ben Mann. Has anybody has anybody noticed any sort of erratic long snap? So much so that I went back and I quickly rewatched the Dolphin game and fast forwarded to all special teams plays. Now, why am I bringing this up? Do you remember when we all sort of had a mini overreaction early in the summer when they released Triner after they didn't bring back Casey Kreider? And it was the idea of we're going with an undrafted rookie long snapper. Like it was a very minimal little thing that felt important in May or June or whenever the hell that happened that we kind of forgot about because it's not something sexy to talk about, which is why I'm assuring you nobody is doing the work and talking about this. This guy's having an incredible preseason. His snaps are awesome. And if you're going to have an operation with a rookie kicker, I think it's pretty freaking important that the long snapper not be a disaster. So my biggest hot take is that of all the positions that we are talking about, somehow they have uncovered an undrafted rookie with NFL pedigree, giant pedigree from Boston College. And he has been as perfect a long snapper this preseason as you could have hoped. So much so that we forgot that it was an issue. We forgot that it could have been an issue. Yeah, you know, and I'm so petrified and I have, you know, we all have such PTSD when it comes to special teams that when they did make the decision to cut the veterans over the spring, but that being Jason Sanders and the long snapper, I'm sitting here with on pins and needles, like, oh my God, what are we doing? I feel like we're going down a path that, you know, just not having enough depth and not having enough options. I feel like we've been here before. We're putting ourselves in a corner where we have to run out of, you know, all these rookies and stuff like that. But they've seemingly had perfect summers. They've seemingly have done enough to impress this coaching staff, which I think especially special teams wise, they have high expectations, you know, and even forget the just resting on the pedigree of the coaching staff and being like, ah, I trust them. You know, like you said, they've performed. These guys have come out and performed. So they have. And when you think about the longevity of Zach D'Alessi and then into Casey Kreider, I mean, Ben Mann, this training camp, if this continues in the season, I mean, you're talking about a guy who at some point you're going to be having a conversation 10 years from now is he one of the longest tenured giants. And then even the kicker battle too, even bring it back to that. Yeah, the kicking battle is not a problem. Like, think about it. We thought, do they sign a veteran? Do they sign a veteran? What would a veteran have changed this summer between these two guys other than taking away reps? You know, I, I maybe would have liked to see Zavada more like in-game reps. Like, man, I would have just loved to see him kick that. Even if it was a miss against the Vikings, I would have just loved to see him like be in that moment and see how he deals with that. But I'm excited for him. I am too. Look, I don't, whatever. We could all make our bold takes or whatever. If Zavada makes his team, the Giants are winning a football game where they kick a 60 yard field goal this year. Like, that is going to happen for the Giants. And we're going to be sitting there going, oh my God, we finally did it. Like, I have no doubt we're going to get that moment this year. I don't know why. It could be a game that we sweat out for no reason versus Arizona, but that's going to happen. All right, before we get now, so now that we did the specials, you know, typically that's like the last thing that you do. Just doing those three positions. We let off with that. That lets you know that we're where the Giants are as a franchise and where the fan mindset is, where Sean's mind is.

Uh, quarterback pretty easy, right? Uh, okay. Well, I did have to change though because I had quarterback. I had three quarterbacks making it on my first 53. I only have two now. Yeah, I have two as well. Jackson, Darton, James Winston. Yep. Easy, easy peasy. There's zero reason for Brandon Allen to be on this team outside of a practice squad. Yeah, basically 100% for both Darton and Winston on people's responses. 5.4% Brandon Allen. 13.1% say Jay Koehner. I am with the majority of people here. Yep. Okay, me too. So two quarterbacks. But my first shakeup at least though. My first shakeup because I had three. Yeah, I didn't pull up what I... Maybe I should pull up what I did in the spring and maybe compare. That's good on you. Thank you. Running back. So out of the 443 responses, we have 99.8% of people. So you have to take into account that maybe are trolling us a little bit here. Yeah, for sure. 99% of people say Cam Scadaboo. 96.8% say Tyron Tracy. 86.7% say Devin Singletary. 2.5% say Eric Ray. Only one person, one. That's 0.2% said Damone Bankston. And then this is like really high, but I guess it shouldn't be that surprising. But 97.3% of people do say Najee Harris. So we have four running backs, all with above 86.7% chance of making this 53-man roster based on what everybody filled out. Yeah, I have all four of these guys as well. My original 53 had three. So I robbed a quarterback position to add the fourth running back. And Justin, you had done that homework, which was obviously great in terms of Harbaugh keeping four running backs. So I'm here. And also when they sign Najee Harris, the rhetoric coming out of there was less about whether he's going to be on the team and more about whose role is what. So I sort of took that as an indication that they signed him with the expectation he'll be on the 53. Right. Yeah, I also have four running backs. I did mention three of the last four years that John Harbaugh has carried four running backs. That's a trend that I figured out and that we picked up going back to our spring 53-man roster episode. But because they didn't really have that capable fourth running back, I'm like, well, it doesn't make sense to carry four. Now they bring in Najee Harris. I don't think they're bringing him here for no reason. So I also do have four. Now, what my preference is, Sean, I don't think you need four. You probably don't. But I think they also carry four knowing, let's just see the way Scadaboo runs. Injury could pop up. And Tyrone Tracy has been banged up in his career as well. And Najee Harris is coming off an Achilles. So I think when you consider three of those guys and the fourth one being Devin Singletary, three of those guys, you at least have to have some pause with injury. I think four does make sense because you almost feel like you're going to be playing with three at any given week. Do you think there's any chance? I know this would be crazy if they do it because he has been practicing and kind of ramping up. Do you think there's any chance that they put Najee Harris on like a list to start the year? Like an IR? Something. Just remember they could, but you still have to make the initial 53 before they put you on that list. Right. Okay. That's important. Also, we should actually talk about that real quickly. Remember this, because I'm re-reminded this every year. You can go on injured reserve and only miss three games and be activated. Those rules have completely changed from when they were 10 years ago. But every single player, which is why PUP is important. This is why when Malik Neighbors did not start on the PUP list, it was worth noting. They couldn't just throw them on IR and keep 54 guys on the roster. You have to have your initial 53 submitted and then you can allocate guys to IR and bring back certain guys you cut, which is where, if they want to do that, Justin, and they want to keep somebody else that they're afraid of being claimed, they could play the game where they wave Ben Mann and say, just sit tight. Let's put this guy on IR. Now we re-sign you as the long snapper, like play the long snapper game or whatever they want to do with that extra spot. Which they have done. The roster, like Timon Fox would always be the guy that would be there. Yep. He would be the sacrificial lamb where he's cut, they bring him back. But they could do that with Najee Harris, but he would still have to make the initial 53 and then have him miss the first three games. Remember Jakob Johnson, the fullback that they signed. I'm like, oh wow, the Giants finally have a fullback. And then they would sign him, then they would cut him, then they would sign him, they would cut him. So they would do a lot of roster gymnastics. So that stuff is coming. That's a great point. Fullback? Obviously, I mean, I'll count this in the tight ends, but yeah, Patrick Ricard. Yeah, Patrick Ricard. I'm still confused why they signed Grant Finley, to be completely frank with you. I mean, you're not going to play Patrick Ricard for four quarters and you also do want to run your offense. So that was why? It was just to give a guy looks and run the preseason fullback offense? I do. It's just funny because we talk about offenses and defenses running very vanilla, not like all the real stuff in preseason games. So that's why I thought to me that didn't matter as much. But all right, I buy what you sell. No, I mean, I think their core plays are with a fullback in this offense. So I think they're going to, you know, whether it's Patrick Ricard or whether it's another fullback. By the way, I think Grant Finley, I mean, everybody on that line had like a good game. Everybody had a good game. But I thought Grant Finley in particular looked pretty comfortable as a fullback too. And I guess if an injury happened to record and Finley was on somebody else's practice squad or whatever, you could sign him back and he knows the book or whatever. That makes sense. Wide receiver. Okay. 100% of people have Malik Nabors making it. 93.9% have Darius Slayton making it. 97.1% have Calvin Austin making it. 89.4% have Darnell Mooney making it. 100% for Malik Highfields. 89.6% of people have Odell Beckham Jr making it. 70.4% Braxton Berrios. And then everybody else is below 10. Dalyn Cambridge at 8.4%. Jalen Hyatt's less than two. Isaiah Hodgins at 3.8%. Xavier Gibson at 0.7%. Okay. How many did you keep? I have six. Ravens have carried six wide receivers each of the last three years. I have six, but for most of this morning and this afternoon, Sean, I had 52 guys on my roster. So I had the option to carry seven. I just didn't see the need. Okay. I went six as well. And I leaned on a conversation we had about Beckham and applied it elsewhere. I have Nabors. I have Fields, Austin, Slayton, Mooney. We all have those five. Yeah, the big five. Yep, the big five. And of course, we're not taking into account the Texans already traded for Butte from the Patriots. So I'm not taking into account a trade here. I'm just going with my assumption. I did have Odell Beckham Jr as my sixth receiver and I did not have Braxton Berrios on the team. My thinking now being with this injury to Berrios, especially missing on Monday, I think these are costing him valuable reps. But also, if I brought up on Saturday's show the idea of Odell Beckham Jr being cut and going to a practice squad and accepting that role, why would I not apply the same logic to Braxton Berrios and also understand that with that elevation game, you want him for a punt returner for three games in the first half of the year, you could do that. And then if an injury pops up, sign him to the active roster. So I'm keeping six with Beckham, but I'm going with what I thought could happen with Beckham at the practice squad with Berrios. I think he remains on a giant practice squad. And by the way, Dalyn Cambry, I think will be on the practice squad as well. Yeah, you know what's funny? I forgot that I, so I have a document here and I honestly forgot who I put as my sixth. And this morning, I thought I highlighted Braxton Berrios. I highlighted Odell Beckham Jr. So you put Odell. I have Odell. Okay, so you don't have Berrios. But okay, but you can see a world that I'm talking about with Berrios, can't you? For this team where he's a giant, but he's just not on the 53. Yeah, and also, if he's healthy and they view him as that much of an advantage at a returner, then guess what? He should be the punt returner, he should be the kick returner on this team. If he's that much of an advantage. We just haven't seen him in that capacity, Sean. Yeah, no doubt. And I can't keep a guy just to return punts when Calvin Alston is on the team. Right. And I know at this point, yeah, forget kick returner. Like, I'm confident with Deontay Banks is going to be back there. And if you're going to carry four running backs, yeah, put Devin Singletary back there. Can I throw something crazy at you too? Maybe this is crazy. What's to stop the Giants in a pinch in a game if Calvin Alston got hurt from having Odell Beckham Jr. catch punts? He's done it his career. We've seen veterans go back and do this a lot. Yeah, if he just catches punts and doesn't really... For all the talk that he doesn't participate in specials, he can't be the backup punt returner on the team. Yeah, I guess he can. I know they haven't seen it much, but also there's been no reason to see it. When you get to the 53, you could. I wonder when the last time he's even done it. Yeah, but Justin, I mean, think about even like the most random things. Like, we're talking about a franchise that once had a Dory Jackson returning punts for no reason. You know what I mean? And the reason why they did that is because he did it at USC and... Beckham at least has done it. You need a veteran to catch a punt? He could do that at a pinch. Yeah. Yeah, so really like the advantage for keeping Braxton Berrios, if you view him that much as a kick returner and then like, do you not... Do you not want to put Calvin Austin out there as a punt returner? I'm okay. And then my counterpoint to that would be if we're running all this, you know, 12 personnel, how much is Calvin Austin getting reps out of the slot anyway? Right. I want to look though, when was the last time that Odell... Because it's a good point by you. When was the last time that Odell caught a punt in an in-game? I'm going to guess he never did it with anybody but the Giants. That's my guess. But I'm using a different computer and it is annoying me. I'm having a bunch of technology at my house like not function for me. I'm using my Chromebook that I had when I was in college. That is where I am at right now. Odell punt return. Still loading. Jeff, I'm going to have you... I'm going to have you cut this to make it just... It looks like 2018. Which he was a Giant. Yep. I have zero... Oh no, hold on. He did it in 2019 as a... He had one... Brown, one, negative six yards. He had one punt return for negative six yards in 2019. So there you go. All right. So it's been a while. I'm not, again, I'm not telling you Odell Beckham Jr. is a Giants punt return. I'm just saying in the argument to not have Berrios on the roster, if Calvin Austin were to get banged up in a game and what Berrios was offering is that... In a pinch. In a pinch, that's all. Yeah. In a pinch. I still do think that, like, I don't think Odell has done enough this summer to really earn that roster spot though. So I struggle with that. He hasn't done enough in terms of, like, just catches in the preseason. But, I mean, if Harbaugh's just going based on the tape and the idea is getting open and all this, I mean, this is where wide receivers, if the quarterback's not unloading the ball, like Beckham got killed by Brandon Allen in that first game. But he has to catch that touchdown. But... But are we analyzing... We're not analyzing Isaiah Hodgins like we're analyzing Odell Beckham Jr. So Isaiah Hodgins could be having a great summer for all we know getting open, but nobody really cares. No, Justin, it's a great point. I guess my point would be, unless you're going to tell me Dylan Cambry, tell me the other wide receiver that absolutely has shown he should be wide receiver six. Because I could have an argument about Cambry, you tell me that, that's the route they're going, I'm fine with it. But, like, for all the talk about Berrios, what the hell has he shown? I mean, besides early in camp. I mean, early in camp, Berrios did show out. All right, he was a slot eating against the backup slot corner. Most veteran slots do that. Which it's easy for these, you know, gunner would eat. Yes. Every summer too, you know? Yeah. Look, I have no skin in the game. I think it's a cool story with Odell. I totally get football reasons not having it. But if you're going to give me anybody else but him at wide receiver six, I'd ask the same question. Like, what has he done to show me that? But at the end of the day, like, we both have him. We do, you know what I mean? We both have him. My only caveat being Braxton Berrios healthy. And I haven't seen Braxton Berrios return kicks. So if they legitimately view Braxton Berrios as this clear cut kick returner one or kick returner with Deontay Banks and then clear punt returner one, then Braxton Berrios should make the team because that is a more valuable role than wide receiver six. Only Odell. Yes. Yes, yes, yes. Yes. All right. But I have Odell making it for now. Okay. And so do 89% of people. Tight end. Pretty easy conversation. Yeah, obviously Isaiah Likely, who I'm assuming got 100%. Isaiah Likely, 100%. Theo Johnson, 99.8%. Chris Manhurts, 89.2%. Thomas Fedoni, 21.4%. And Tanner Conner got two votes. Look, when the Giants are carrying a fullback as they are, unfortunately, that just becomes a numbers game for guys like Tanner Conner and Thomas Fedoni. And the Giants did have a little bit of a leadership council announced today. Which they had eight guys on it, I believe, including both quarterbacks, Jameis Winston and Jackson Dart. But one interesting name on there, Andrew Thomas was also on there. The other interesting name is Chris Manhurts. And John Harbaugh apparently is going to name game day captains that those will be the team captains. But these are the eight, quote unquote, leaders. So it's a little different than what we're previously used to. So Chris Manhurts to be voted as one of the eight leaders on this team. I'm sorry. But even if there was a thought, hey, you think there's any shot Fedoni could jump a Manhurts and get rid of the blocking tight end? Chris Manhurts, I think, all but solidified our minds that he's a thousand percent on this team if he's already been voted one of the eight leaders on the team. Dart, Jameis, Manhurts, AT, Andrew Thomas, Brian Burns, Tremaine Edmonds, Javon Holland and Jordan Stout as the eight leader. I mean, I think even Judge did like a leadership council too, but they still were all captains too. It's weird. We'll find out when the guys wear the C's. I do like the idea of both quarterbacks having a C. It's always weird when like if you're like the young quarterback that's eventually going to take over when you're not wearing a C. Like last year, Russell Wilson being a captain and Dart not was just kind of weird. So I'm cool with that. But yeah, I just think if I always thought Manhurts was on the team anyway, but there were some people murmuring and wondering, really, could they go Fedoni over Manhurts? Like that all got squashed today when we find out Chris Manhurts is one of the leaders on the team. Yeah. John Harbaugh and the Ravens have carried three tight ends each of the last three years. You mentioned it's a great point. They're probably going to use Patrick Ricard in line a decent amount. That usage was really up with Todd Munkin. And I kind of I like that. I like that as a way to get Ricard on the field more under Greg Roman. His inline usage was was down from what Munkin did. So I hope Roman does kind of borrow some of that from Todd Munkin. But you got to think like I think Greg Roman, the Giants offense, they're going to use Ricard more as a fullback than what Todd Munkin did. So I think it's Ricard's going to be on the field a lot regardless. Doesn't matter. As long as we're doing I know we're going to do the O-line in a second. Also, F the Browns for a second. This whole Deshaun Watson, Shador Sanders thing is just being mishandled. And you just you know that Todd Munkin is in over his head as a head coach. And he's probably going to be one and done when this thing collapses. And the fact that the Giants basically had to pause a year to get the offensive coordinator they wanted. So Cleveland could just throw a guy to the Wolves instead of naming Jim Schwartz their coach. Man, F the Browns. Because, you know, we could have just had a seamless Todd Munkin transition here for the Giants. Yeah, that would have been that would have been sick. I want I even wonder if that was even his choice. Munkin or Harbaugh? Munkin. But Deshaun? No, it sounds like an ownership call. They're paying him a lot of money to go out there and play. Yeah, what a that had to be the worst. Not only contract, but they gave up so much. I mean, they literally let the Houston Texans built like builds like a legit contender because it's crazy. Now, again, I don't blame the Browns. You're the Browns. You never have a quarterback. You're basically a running joke. You never had a quarterback. I totally get why they did it. But man, that thing couldn't have turned out any worse. All right. So we've been in lockstep so far. Almost uneventful, but fun. This is where it gets. This is where it gets a little bit more interesting. You could argue wide receivers and ----, but only one spot with wide receivers. The old line is the group that I'm most fascinated to see how it plays out. I carry 10 offensive linemen in my 53 man roster exercise in the spring. I think it's a little overkill. I don't think you need 10, even though I now I now I'm suddenly liking the names like I'm liking. I'm more I'm somehow warming up to Joshua Zulu, possibly being on this roster more than I was a couple of months ago. So I had the Ravens carry nine offensive linemen in 2025. They did carry 10 in 2024 heading into September. They carry nine in 2023 and 10 in 2022. So even though 10 may be overkill, they have carried 10 two of the last four years. The Ravens have carried 10, at least initially going into September. How about that? I did not realize that. OK, so it's not out of the question. It's not. I don't know. Listen, we'll play this the game of what you would take off to add a 10. Are you going back to the well in 10? You said no, right? I am not. I am reducing it down to nine. I have nine as well. So either way, you know, we'll go through the whole roster and we'll look back because put a pin in this, whether it would be worth keeping a 10. A.T. Runyon, JMS, Francis Momino, Illuminor, Marcus Bowe and J.C. Davis as seven. Yeah, I have those seven as well, obviously. Who are your final two? OK, I can't believe this because I basically feel like it was a week ago in the show. I badmouthed him because of old knees, but I'm putting Lucas Patrick back on the roster. Yeah, I think so. He'll be the backup center, though. I wouldn't be stunned if Hudson, if you flip the two out, they're going to keep a backup center, especially with John Michael Schmitz's concussion history. They're not going to screw around with a guard taking snaps on the fly. I believe it will be Lucas Patrick and hold your breath and hope he's healthy. Then my ninth. How do I not put Aaron Stinney? He started the game. He started the game next to the other two starters in Runyon and John Michael Schmitz. So for all the talk about his Zulu practice, the fact that they put Stinney right there tells me he's ahead. And I do think that even like the minor injury here for Zulu, I mean, you better get out there and play your ass off. I could see him making the team, but it feels like a Zulu has potential. Either somebody else picks him up or the Giants slot him on the practice squad. To me, Harbaugh also said it is postgame presser the following day on Zoom was talking about Josh Zulu. And, you know, they they even asked, like, oh, you finally put up Dunleavy asked him, hey, you finally put him on guard. You know, that's been like an internal discourse here over the last couple of years. And Harbaugh kind of gave a wry smile. And he said, yeah, you know, we did actually put him back out at tackle in the second half. So we do view him as a positional flex, you know, position with positional flexibility, even though, you know, we gave him a compliment like, hey, are they going to are they going to start cutting down on that on that term, positional flexibility? And I think for backups, they probably see value in it. And sure, like that's something that I can understand. Like, why let's not cross train guys that we view as starters or guys that we view with like substantial futures on this team? Let's not mess around and cross train and do all this stuff and not have like this vision and a plan for a guy at like a singular spot. So I guess for Josh Azuda and where he is at this stage of his career, cool. Harbaugh basically did say that he is he's limited to the right side. Like they only view him. They only view him as a right guard and they only view him as a right tackle at this point, which. And it can't be good because then he's going to give you both guard flexibility spots and they very clearly, I think, are trending towards like if Andrew Thomas got hurt in the week two game. I mean, are they putting J.C. Davis out there at left tackle and keeping Marcus Bowe only as your right tackle? Yeah, I don't know. I think I would still lean Bowe or. I would too. Or or even sliding Illuminor over to the left and then you have Marcus Bowe at the right side, which is maybe where I would lean. But right now, like I have Lucas Patrick and Aaron Sinney as well. And why view it as 10, Sean? Because 10 is overkill. Because you have your two backup tackles that in a way, like I feel much better about J.C. Davis as this as your second tackle. I feel decent about that. Better than James Hudson. Yep. Yeah. Better than James Hudson. And then you have Lucas Patrick that's going to have be your backup center and give you guard flexibility. And then Aaron Stinney as your backup guard. So you have two backup tackles and then two guard slash centers. So yeah. And again, whenever you're doing a 53, I'm just like the fourth time I'm going to say this. The rules have changed. If Izudu doesn't go anywhere else, him being on the practice squad, if you know a game week, a guy is not going to be active. That's a healthy lineman that you need that use those elevations on Josh Izudu in that way. So the results from everybody that submitted the responses, obviously the top five all being 100%. J.C. Davis at 94.8%. Marcus Boe is at 100% as well. Josh Izudu. Am I seeing this right? At 83 and a half percent? I don't know, man. That's a lot of meth used by the voters if they think that. Aaron Stinney, 62.3%. Lucas Patrick at 43.3%. Evan Neal at 33.2%. Brian Hudson at 34.3%. Jay Kubas at 7%. And then everybody else with basically below 2%. So you got some Izudu stans in there. 83 and a half percent. I wonder how many people voted on that off the joint practice when it felt like he slid right in. Well, I put this out. I think I put it out after the game. Oh, you did? I'm sorry. I thought it was out earlier than that. My bad. You're right. Well, even the, you know, well, even the game. Like, he played really well in the game. It's true. That's true. Hey, listen, we'll see. I mean, that's good. It's, would you agree it's, because of the center ability, I'm assuming it's Patrick versus Hudson and it's Stinney versus Izudu, right? And if you carry 10, who would your 10th be? Would it be Brian Hudson or Josh Izudu? I guess Izudu, because he also has tackle flexibility. I would lean Izudu as well. I don't think they're going to carry 10, though. I also don't think there's any reason to carry 10 with the way the rules are. Right now, yeah, in my, so I did pull up my spring 53 men roster prediction and I think I had, I had Izudu making it because I was worried about the backup tackle depth. That's what I was worried about. Yeah, but how could you be worried about that now? Yeah, we haven't, hey, we haven't seen J.C. Davis against anybody that's decent. But I'm still pretty confident Marcus Bowe is a swing tackle overall, that if J.C. Davis is your now fourth tackle, we've come a long way. We used to not have that third tackle. Sometimes the second tackle. 100%. If they carry 10 offensive linemen, by the way, I'm totally fine with that. I would be very interested to see where they take away from them. All right. Before we keep going, because now we have fully moved off the offense, we're going to go all defense here. Before we keep going, I do want to talk to you about hymns.

So this is going to be a fascinating conversation. I've struggled with something. Okay. Shawnee has a thought, but we'll get there when we get there. Corners. Okay, starting corners. I like it. How many are you carrying? Six. I'm also carrying six. Damn, we've been, we've agreed with everything so far. This is boring. That's okay. Also probably a good sign for the Giants. The weight, them being fifth in the weight, this is where I think it's really going to, this position, cornerback, and then also interior D-line is where you're going to feel like the possible waiver claim effectively. So I have six as well. Here's what our responses said. Paul Sinodibo at 100%. One person thinks Greg Newsom isn't making the rush, but 99.8% of people do think he's going to make it. 100% of people say Colton Hood. 99.3% say Drew Phillips. Deontay Banks, 99.5%. Art Green leading the way with the other ones. 33.4%. Corey Black at 25.1%. Nick Jones, 7.2%. And one lonely vote for Ugo Amadi at 0.2%. Who wears Tyrone Tracy's number. Okay. I have the big five, obviously. Adibo, Newsom, Hood, Phillips, Banks, as you do as well, I assume. Yes. I'm putting Art Green on there, but I would not be stunned in the least if Corey Black makes his team over Art Green. Okay. I think Art Green has more special teams value. Yeah, I mean, it's hard for me to say what... I haven't paid close enough attention to Corey Black's special teams ability when he's been out there, but I do think that Corey Black is at least playing with a little more awareness than I thought. Art Green has looked a couple moments in this preseason like a chicken with his head cut off. I still think they'll lean Art Green, special teams, all of that, wide receiver six, but I don't know, man. There's a part of me that thinks that could be a minor surprise on Cutdown Deck. Corey Black last year played 40 special team snaps. That was 17%. And this is not total snaps, by the way. This is taking into account the nine games that he appeared in, the two games that he somehow started for the Giants. 17% of snaps when he was eligible to play in games for the Giants. That slightly went up with the Jets in the two games that he appeared in. 29% of the special team snaps Corey Black appeared in. Okay, all right. I mean, he gives you something, but yeah, Art Green probably for the specials makes it. Yeah. Just keep an eye on that one. That could be a minor surprise. And again, I agreed with the Big Five, but this is where a waiver claim could very much come in as well. That's a great point, too. Great point. Anything could happen. The Bravens carried six in 2025, six in 2024, seven in 2023, and six in 2022. So it's fair to presume that they're going to carry six leading into September. Yes, but I agree. I had Art Green. Did you have Corey Black? No, I had Art Green. I said I wouldn't be surprised. Like, if this is one I get wrong, it wouldn't shock me. Yeah. All right, we're in lockstep. This is crazy. Gotta be not in lockstep at some point. And I think it may be here. All right. What do we got? Safeties. Okay. This is part of my conundrum. And this is the exact room that I had my conundrum to, because we're going to do last three, like, first three in, last three out. When I tell you I had 52 guys and I felt confident about the 52 guys, this is where my 53rd came from. Okay, so my 53rd, I guess, is also coming from here, and I want to switch it so badly, but I'm going to stick with my instinct. I kept five, but my gut feeling tells me we're going to get to the 53 and they're going to keep four. I also have five, and obviously the big four being Holland, Nubin, Washington, Pinnock, and then did we both keep Elijah Campbell? I kept Elijah Campbell. He was my 53rd man on the roster. This is where I, like, wanted to carry 10 offensive linemen, but it felt overkill. This is where, like, hell, like, for whatever reason, Sean, the Giants are carrying a fullback. Like, I guess they're not carrying three quarterbacks. The Giants are carrying a fullback and four running backs, and I still found, for whatever reason, like, oh my god, I have room. I still have, like, another name. We can carry a 10th lineman. We can carry a 7th receiver or, like, a 4th tight. Like, something. I was very surprised that after all this, I thought Najee Harris was just going to push this over the edge, that I was going to have to have one really difficult cut. I had 52 guys comfortable, and then that 53rd spot, I'm kind of like, it can kind of go anywhere, and I'm all right with that. Yes. I don't want to spoil too much because my other position would be on defense, not the 10th offensive lineman, to get rid of Elijah Campbell. And I think I have pretty sound reasoning, and this is all, like, in the last two hours this has come to me. But yeah, I think exactly that. And I think Campbell offers you a lot of special teams and everything. Plus, I also still view our Darius Washington as a guy who could be a little bit of a duct tape in the cornerback room as well. Oh, yeah. So that plays into it. But yeah, okay. So we have the same five, but both with our 53rd man, which is interesting. Our Darius Washington also basically does serve as a depth, backup, and even nickel corner that's going to play a lot of snaps. So he's a special- And I had the thought, my initial 53, I had five as well, but my fifth was Bo Braid based on his Ravens lineage. It just doesn't feel like he's done enough. I know he picked up that fumble at the very end of the game on Saturday, but not enough for me. Basically, the majority of people think that they're going to carry four because Holland, Newman, Washington, and Pinnock are all above 96, 97%. Yeah, okay. I'm curious for everybody else's, I guess we'll count up those percentages where it goes. I wonder if- And then Elijah Campbell, Elijah Campbell's at 20 and a half percent. You have Bo Braid at 5.4%, and then Raheem Lane and JT Woods are both below two and a half percent. Damn, I hate- Again, we're both- In all fairness, I did have five. I had this same- Yeah. I had this same predicament with my spring 53-man roster where I did carry Elijah Campbell. I also carried Elijah Campbell at the time of the spring because he also legitimately just had a good spring. So. Yeah, that's true. That's true. Now I'm so curious. I'm so curious if we're going to be aligned in a certain way of thinking. Yeah. This is another spot. So we're going on to interior linebacker right now. This is another spot where let's just say I remove Elijah Campbell from this, and if I want to carry, let's just say I want to carry six interior linebackers instead of five, I feel like I am okay with that. Yeah, that feels like overkill for this room. I don't feel comfortable carrying- Usually it's not though. Usually it's not with this interior- Like interior linebacker, what we have learned on this show and what we have said for years on this show is this is the one position on the depth chart that seemingly every year it gets ran through. It gets torn apart to shreds. Okay. But my pushback would be this is the first year I feel so confident in three starters we're in the only two spots that it just feels less flimsy if everybody's healthy. Like you're not going to be dying to rotate guys out when Tremaine Edmonds and Arvo Reiss are on the team and Micah McFadden is the first guy up behind. Right. But even with injuries, for whatever reason, this is just the position and this is the room that always just gets torn apart. So even if they just want to carry- and even if it's to start, even if they just want to carry six, I would be okay with that. So we both have five, correct? Yeah. And obviously are we going at 100% on Edmonds, Reiss? Is that what the listeners have said? Edmonds, Reiss 100%. Micah McFadden at 99.3%. Jack Kelly at 98.9%. I have those three top four as well. I have those four. So who was your fifth? Zaire Barnes. I'm also Zaire Barnes. I think he's at this point very much better than Darius Moussa. Yep, which is- it sucks for Mouissal, but it's another one of those guys as the roster gets better. I think Barnes is so needed on special teams as well. I think he just shows up every time you watch it. Yeah, I think it was also just not a very good draft pick by this regime. Yeah, Mouissal. Very slow and they loved him. Wow, that lockstep again. 29.3% of people said Darius Moussal, 22.8% said Zaire Barnes, and then less than 1.2% for Anfernee Orji and Chandler Martin. Anfernee Orji? Orji. Orji? Yeah, that is how you say it. What a name. I think I remember looking at him at the draft a couple years ago. Not a foreign name when he signed. Anfernee Orji. Yeah. He has not shown up on my radar at all this camp. Bob Pappas said his name during a preseason game. I think he made some sort of player tackle and I left hearing Bob Pappas say the word Orji. By the way, this was not the room you mentioned, Sixers, was not the room I struggled with here with keeping Elijah Campbell. OK, so then let's go to the Edge Room. Thank you. Brian Burns, Abdul Carter, Kayvon Thibodeau and Chauncey Golston all receiving north of 96% of the votes. But there are guys in here that have had like good summers, like Trace Ford has had a good summer and he's had a good camp. Now, the interesting thing about Chauncey Golston is that Chauncey Golston is now having this positional flexibility with kind of going to the inside a good amount. So do the Giants technically carry five edge rushers with the intention of Chauncey Golston playing both outside and in? I still carried four. All right, I carried four, but this is, you nailed it, Justin. This was the thought that came to me after I'd already, you know, emailed my 53 over to, you know, talking Giants headquarters. I said to myself, not for nothing, the emergence of Chauncey Golston seemingly starting on the interior of the defensive line, I think might say more about what they decide to do in the Edge Room than the interior of the defensive line room. What I mean by that is you still list them as an edge, but do you feel more comfortable not wanting to lose needing him on the interior because, you know, you have a game in the middle of a game where, you know, whatever reason, you know, Burns and Carter maybe get a little nicked up in it and it's Cave on there. I think Caleb Murphy has a shot to make the team as the 53rd guy here, even over Trace Ford. I know Ford has played well, but you see what Murphy also brings on special teams as well. He obviously had the big pop on forcing the fumble on that muff punt to end the game. Like when weighing this, do they really need the fifth safety if you're going to need to lean on Golston on the interior? And does Caleb Murphy, because everything he offers on specials actually make more sense to carry as a fifth edge? Yeah, I think this is where I get a little frustrated with having special, like, elongated special teams conversations at this time of the year. But they matter in the 53-man roster. It does. No, but my frustration with it is is I don't know and do not claim to know outside of Gunner. I don't know positions on special teams. I agree with you. So like, I would keep a guy like Elijah Campbell around. He does have a legit special teams background, but I'm just looking at snaps, right? But now we're talking about what roles on spot like where where could they need guys on specials? And could a guy like Caleb Murphy fit better than another another safety in another secondary type of body? You know what I mean? Yeah, he could be right there. Yeah, that's just OK. So we get it. Now, if you had to carry a fifth, would you go forward over Murphy? Uh, yeah. I mean, he's just played better. So, yeah. All right. That's fine. I mean, flip a flip a quarter. But either way, yeah, I think there's a chance they rob Peter to pay Paul and keep five edges by Gholston's versatility on the interior, especially if they're leaning on him to start games on the interior, which, by the way, if you look on our lads like the giant step chart, it's Shelby Harris listed at the end. And then Chauncey Gholston is the next guy listed. So, yeah, so this could just be a me thing. That's like, oh, I'm just looking at Chauncey Gholston has played has played edge like his career. Let's see where he's listed on Pro Football Reference. On Pro Football Reference, he is listed. God, I hate using a computer from 2016. He's listed as a defensive end on Pro Football Reference as well. So we may be thinking about this edge room all wrong. And there's going to be a fourth edge like Fordham Murphy that makes the team makes the team. And does that mean one less of these tackles we think? Or does that mean taking a safety or some of you would six linebackers off that off the field? Right. So that's why I can't put a 10th offensive lineman. I keep coming back to this dilemma. I think we correct it, by the way, that it's going to be Gholston on the interior and they're going to keep an extra edge. I mean, you could again, you could still list you can list Gholston wherever you want. Right. But I think keeping an extra edge rusher, it justifies it because you have the flexibility that Gholston gives you. So it sucks. I'm going to stick with the five safeties. Knowing damn well, I think we figured this out and they're actually getting Ford or Murphy is going to be on this team. Yeah. And technically, so those guys would be one of your last three players out. Yes. Yep. Okay. Defense aligned. Our last position group. All right. By the way, I didn't read the responses for the edge rusher for the edge room. My apologies. So 2.7% say Khalil Kareem, 6.3% say trace forward and 3.6% say Kayla Murphy. And this may be the biggest upset of them all. Like we kind of talked about. Yep. Interior D line. Darius Alexander, DJ Reed and Shelby Harris, all receiving more than 99% of the votes. Bobby James and Travis receiving 83.7. Lucky photo at 68.8%. Josh Topu at 20.8%. Zach Pickens at 9.9%. And then everybody else. Ben Barton and Quinn Barnes Jr. And Marlon Davidson, all receiving less than 2.5% of the votes. How many are you carrying? Five. Not including Goldstone. Obviously, I'm carrying five too, but obviously and red red alarms. Like one of these guys, like lucky photo is probably not going to be on the team. Come cowboy come September 13th and another defensive lineman is going to be on this team. Yeah, like there's going to be an unknown body, but in the world in which nobody becomes available to whatever after week, like they just don't find anybody. The five for me. Well, reader and Harris, I'm assuming we both have. Yes, Darius Darius Alexander. I mean, I don't know what you do with him if he's not on the team. Like, is that a surprise? I doubt it. Maybe he gets caught if you find the right free agent you keep photo. Like, is that possible? Maybe not. I don't think I don't think it is rush ability. Well, no, I also don't think this front office would like. No, we're not cutting a former third round pick new regime. Even with Joe Shane, it's a new regime. Also, they kind of need bodies. So I'm not. That's true. I don't think they are either. I'm just trying to find what scares me here. So I have those three. I have lucky photo as a fourth. And obviously I have Bobby, James and Travis. But like I've come back to is there a world where you cut? You have Bobby, James and Travis make the initial 53. Nobody claims him right away. They everybody goes through their waiver claims. Then you claim your tackle. And then by that point, you hope nobody then claims Bobby, James and Travis on that first wave because everybody's already done their first wave. Right. And you hide them on the practice squad. Is that possible? I think it's possible that Bobby, James and Travis starts here in the practice club and makes the initial 53. So those are my five. Justin, obviously same deal as you, though, knowing that a new body is coming. Yeah, at least one. At least one. At least right. It could be two and we get totally thrown off. Yeah, I mean, then you're talking about lucky photo and Bobby, James and Travis being, you know, not here or they just carry six. Again, entirely possible. And then if they claim that other guy, does that mean less starting role for gold, like depending on the kind of guy it is for goals, then they feel more comfortable. Yeah. Slide him out the edge. Like there's a million things that could happen here. But I'm with you with the with five. And I have those five Darius Alexander, DJ reader, Shelby Harris, lucky photo, Bobby, James and Travis, especially putting like red circle around lucky photo, probably being that I'm I'm disappointed in them, but probably being that lucky photo is the one that's going to be out. If he if there is going to be a guy that is out. Does that mean we had the same 53 man roster? Dude, I think it does. And that's crazy. Now, first of all, give us a lot of credit because that means we didn't like pre talk about this. We did not. And we're also not coming out here trying to have some kind of like hot take pound the table, which is pretty good to good of us. But maybe we're just inside each other's brains and talking too much, man. Crazy. Hate that. But I'd rather that than fake an argument for argument's sake. Hate that. By the way, as we're wrapping up the show, I do want to talk about one more thing. We got to talk about TaskRabbit. Football season is right around the corner. And if there's anything that needs to get done around the house before game day starts, the clock is ticking. And I'll tell you what, I had TaskRabbitCon. I've talked about this experience before where my sister has autism. She lives in a group home in Middlesex, New Jersey. And I had TaskRabbitCon like, hey, I need some furniture. I'm too busy with work. It was the middle of football season. I couldn't take a weekend because football's on. And I'm like, ah, I have like really, really one day a week that I really kind of like get off. And it was like a Saturday. And it's like, well, I want to hang out with my sister. I want to pick her up. We're going to go to lunch. And but furniture needed to be built. She needed a new piece of furniture. So I had a task, a tasker go to her house, build it all up.

Thank you to TaskRabbit. Yeah, so we have the same 53. Good times. Good times, Justin. Now the question is, will we be right? Probably not. Very much. Probably, I think, I think based on that edge conversation, we won't be. Who knows? They'll probably claim a, they'll probably claim a wide receiver. Yeah. Watch that. Exactly. Probably claim a tight end. Oh, wow. It'll be something randomized. Absolutely. Two corners out of nowhere. All right. We will not, not, not, not be live on Thursday. We've been trying to go. I've kind of liked the pregame like the pregame live streams that we've done, like Thursday afternoons to kind of replace the Friday apps. But instead, Sean and I, we are going to record Wednesday afternoon because I know you're, you're back to work and you're, you've got a million things going on. I'm going to a Met game Thursday night to be honest. Oh, that's right. You're going to a Met game. Okay. How else would you rather be? Joyous. I'm sitting in, to be fair, I'm sitting in the Cadillac Club inside the right field wall with free food. So. Okay. Yeah. So Sean and I, we're going to be recording Wednesday, probably afternoon for a Thursday release. I think we're going to try and get a guest on. That's, that's my, that's my intention. We're going to try and get one more guest on to get one more final preview before cut down day. And there's not really a lot to preview for appreciation. We really haven't been really previewing the preseason games anyway. So no, no, I think though, we'll do a lot of previewing who's fighting for their lives off of this 53. Yeah. And we'll talk about. All right. Appreciate you all listening. As always, we will see you on Thursday. Let's go Giants. It starts today. Let's go Giants.
