The New York Giants (5-11) will host the Philadelphia Eagles (11-5) at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey this Sunday afternoon.
That, after all, supplies these of us right here at Giants Wire the chance to hypothetically steal from the Eagles’ roster looking for depth and/or expertise upgrades for Huge Blue for the second time this yr.
Again in Week 16, we stole huge receiver A.J. Brown. Due to that, he’s not entered into the equation this time round.
In wanting over the Eagles’ roster, the choices stay plentiful. They’ve an especially deep and proficient personnel group and have high quality choices at nearly each place.
Jalen Hurts is all the time a tempting steal however his turnover points are the other of what Brian Daboll needs in a quarterback. There’s additionally huge receiver DeVonta Smith, Giants-killing operating again Boston Scott, offensive tackles Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata, defensive lineman Jalen Carter, edge rusher Brandon Graham, and the record goes on and on.
Finally, we’re going with captain and future Professional Soccer Corridor of Famer, middle Jason Kelce.
Why Kelce on the age of 36? We’ll let defensive coordinator Wink Martindale let you know.
“I imply, this man to me is a first-ballot Corridor of Famer,” Martindale stated in December. “He embodies Philly. Identical to the followers, imply however sensible. This man, to me, and I stated this final yr and I don’t know if I stated it to you guys, it’s like taking part in Peyton Manning and it’s not horny so he doesn’t get that Peyton Manning-type credit score, however he’ll see one thing, whether or not it’s a stance, whether or not it’s a man placing his mouthpiece in numerous. He’ll see one thing and utterly flip a safety. So, that chess match is all the time powerful.
“I feel Jason Kelce, he doesn’t get sufficient credit score. Like I stated, he’s a first-ballot Corridor of Famer.”
Kelce embodies the kind of gutty, gritty, and imply offensive lineman that helped lead the Giants to their 4 Tremendous Bowl titles.
What are your ideas, Giants followers? Would you choose Jason Kelce or would you steal a wholly completely different participant from the Philadelphia Eagles?
