Brandon Jacobs does not want the Giants to draft C.J. Spiller

B. Jacobs.jpgGiants running back Brandon Jacobs often appears to take things personally in interviews.

So it really doesn’t surprise us that he told WFAN and Mike Garafolo of the Newark Star-Ledger Wednesday that he would be insulted if the Giants drafted Clemson running back C.J. Spiller.

Luckily for Jacobs, we think there is very little chance Spiller will be available when the Giants pick at No. 15.  But the persistent chatter about Spiller in New York does make some sense.

Jacobs had a very disappointing 2009 season, and he may have to improve his play to justify his salary in 2011. 

Don’t be shocked if the Giants insult Jacobs with a running back in the middle rounds of the draft.

    Brandon Jacobs likes not making the playoffs.

    Brandon Jacobs is trash, he has no hart, and only lowers his shoulder when he gets to the third level untouched and can run over a DB. Bradshaw> Jacobs just facts. I hope the Giants don’t get Spiller because he is a BEAST

    who cares what he thinks

  4. SirSuperSouthern says: Apr 21, 2010 8:44 PM

    Insulted? Jacobs scored like 4 times last year lol…

    Jacobs is always cryin about somethin. Shut up and worry about your YPC..

  6. rjgreen3 says: Apr 21, 2010 8:46 PM

    sounds a little insecure………..

  7. homerskinsfan says: Apr 21, 2010 8:46 PM

    Brandon Jacobs Sucks. Derek Ward was a better back than him. Is say we draft Spiller if available and send Jacobs to the CFL.

    Hey Brandon, do you REALLY think that your coaches, teammates or fans give a damn as to whether you would be insulted or not?! What exactly have you done so wonderfully in your career that would make them be “threatened” by your being “insulted” by them taking a running back who is infinitely faster than you. What you SHOULD be concerned about, as opposed to your glass-like feelings, is that the Giants select a player who can help your team win another Super Bowl. If that happens to be another running back, then embrace the notion.
    Basically, you’re a self-absorbed douchebag.

    Who cares Jacobs is pure ass. I hate the Giants so please dont draft him and screw up his career.

  10. Benjamin C Klein says: Apr 21, 2010 8:50 PM

    freaking chatty kathy shut up you gigantic man baby

  11. steelcity79 says: Apr 21, 2010 8:50 PM

    Well in that case, they better not draft him, because Brandon Jacobs said so…….lol

  12. JIM says: Apr 21, 2010 8:53 PM

    JAcobs is a jerk..he can never stay on the field for a whole game let alone a whole season he should just shut his damn mouth and play and get in football shape and maybe learn how to run a little lower

  13. Fonetik says: Apr 21, 2010 8:59 PM

    I was pretty happy with his play last year. Of course, I’m an Eagles fan…

  14. LewD says: Apr 21, 2010 9:01 PM

    insulted? what a “meathead” … you need at least two A backs to make it thru a season … somebody is bound to get dinged …

  15. P-way Eagles says: Apr 21, 2010 9:05 PM

    Giants would be very wise to draft spiller.

  16. CanadianVikingFan says: Apr 21, 2010 9:09 PM

    Bobby Wade says Brian Urlacher thinks Brandon Jacobs is a bitch.

  17. mrfootball101 says: Apr 21, 2010 9:12 PM

    Maybe he is concerned about not having the cool nicknames like the other running back duos…”speedy and oversized man-child runningback”…*shrug*

  18. decimatetheweak says: Apr 21, 2010 9:13 PM

    Sorry brando we are looking for more than 3.7 ypc

  19. mankthetank says: Apr 21, 2010 9:14 PM

    They have too many defensive needs (LB and Safety) to waste that pick on a back, though Spiller may be too good to pass up.

  20. HOI says: Apr 21, 2010 9:16 PM

    His play last year was insulting.

  21. jan van flac says: Apr 21, 2010 9:16 PM

    on the one hand, his honesty is refreshing.
    on the other, it’s kind of a loser attitude.

  22. pdxbolt4life says: Apr 21, 2010 9:25 PM

    BJ is an overrated douchebag who fits perfect with crybaby eli’s personality. The G-Girls should keep those two together for a very long time.

  23. GaryClark says: Apr 21, 2010 9:28 PM

    The only person scared of BJ is LL. But LL might be able to take BJ now…Skins need a FS!

  24. kvh59 says: Apr 21, 2010 9:37 PM

    of course he doesnt want NY to draft Spiller. Cause Spiller will take his job and he knows that.

  25. QJ1984 says: Apr 21, 2010 9:42 PM

    This guy runs his mouth more than a little bit.

    Brandon Jacobs has most certainly lost a couple steps.
    This IS A FACT.
    The guy has NO HEART!

  28. SKINSFANTOM says: Apr 21, 2010 10:07 PM

    HEY, WHERE ARE THE REDSKIN STORIES? I HAVEN’T SEEN ONE IN 10-15 MINUTES. I NEED A FIX, HAIL!!!

  29. kev86 says: Apr 21, 2010 10:25 PM

    I’m a Giants fan and Jacobs talks too much for a RB. My guess is Eli thinks he’s annoying.
    He must be a pain in the ass to tackle sometimes.
    Bradshaw is a junkyard dog and good to have.
    Drafted Andre Brown lastyear and his achilles snapped.
    Danny Ware seems decent but nothing special.
    That said, Spiller would be a very welcomed addition if it were to happen. Dont think it will.
    Giants war room will be well prepared as always.

  30. anjelmanning says: Apr 21, 2010 10:25 PM

    Nice Florio, finally some Giants stuff… Donno if its positive though! GO ELI!

  31. irish4life says: Apr 21, 2010 10:37 PM

    Forget Jacobs….Dude Killed my fantasy team last year…..I forgive but never forget.

  32. GiantsDefenseRules says: Apr 21, 2010 11:00 PM

    Brandon…..you’re a Giant…therefore, I cheer my heart out for you……
    But STFU!! Run the ball and hit people in the mouth.

  33. Playoffs?! says: Apr 21, 2010 11:38 PM

    Softest 260 lb loud mouth running back I have ever seen.

  34. simple_simon1 says: Apr 22, 2010 12:12 AM

    Since when do the Giants have a chance of getting Spiller anyways…. He’ll be long gone before then…. But if he was there by fluke, tough break Jacobs… Your own pathetic play, not anybody else’s, just lost you your starting job… actually, the Giants could probably get a 4th rounder with Blount or Gerhart and they’d both probably be better too

  35. Stone says: Apr 22, 2010 12:18 AM

    F*ck Brandon Jacobs feelings. I’ve been saying since day 1 that he should have been converted to DE or TE from the start. His career is going to be over in a year or two, as soon as his knees give out. He runs too high for the NFL. I think the Giants have plenty of RBs on the roster though, so don’t look for them to draft another one this year.

  36. troll_aikman8 says: Apr 22, 2010 1:05 AM

    He seems to only get up for Cowboys week. The other 14 weeks he’s Brenda Jacobs.

  37. Adam says: Apr 22, 2010 2:14 AM

    SHHH! Students, my G-Men faithful, calm down! We can talk of Spiller and RBs AFTER we get our “saviour”, Mr. McClain.

  38. BenRoethlisberger7 says: Apr 22, 2010 7:46 AM

    Brandon Jacobs only works well in the 2 back system I don’t think Bradshaw is good enough.

  39. Bious says: Apr 22, 2010 7:28 PM

    Kudos to him for being honest
    We all know other players feel the same way when people are drafted in their positions
