He has to build his body back up,…. he can sit on the bench for the Giants, play special teams, get back to prime physical shape and then make all of you naysayers shut up.

Watch what happens. Some if not most of the cuts (especially the LB’s) will be wearing Eagles uniforms this year. Happens every year, the Giants make cuts and the Eagles pick them up. A true testament to how good your front office\head coach really is, a Dream Team of Giants scrubs!!!

But doesn’t negate the fact that the Jersey Gi’Aints will finish last in the division, and probably be in the running for the Luck sweepstakes. Finally, Eli can be the second stringer he deserves to be. HAIL!!!

He was all over the ball in the preseason games. You’d have seen that if you actually watched the games. I honestly feel he can start in another year or two. Wouldn’t be all that shocked to see him starting this year should the opportunity present itself.

It was a pivotal play against the Eagles in a playoff game.

I understand his most recent attempts to run the ball have been somewhat less successful.

herzlich deserved to make this team based on how he played in the preseason. at worst this guy is our new chase blackburn, tons of heart and plays his butt off on special teams

all 4 of these rookie linebackers look f’in awesome. as a giants fan this is the most excited ive been in a few years too see some young players get a chance to be our future linebackers

yes, carr.

he’s a solid backup and he knows the system. no surprise he’s the backup again.

This is a team that has several embattled coaches who are likely performing for their jobs this year. They don’t need ‘good stories’, they need guys on the field who can make some plays. This preseason, Herzlich has been just that and evidently showed enough to make the team out of the gate. I, and it appears I am not alone, am very happy he’s on the team, both for the player and the person he is.

For the role the Giants are asking D.Ware to play Andre Brown could have easily done it but with more speed.

What games were you watching? Herzlich made a number of plays on defense, as well as special teams. If you watched any of the Giants pre-season games, you heard his name mentioned in the middle of a lot of plays. He certainly earned his spot on the team with his play, not because the Giants wanted a good PR story.

And he does a great job there, but he gets burned ALL the time on the outside.

I know that. Fortunately, that’s where our need is right now, at nickelback. Ross and Webster can man the outside effectively. This would allow us to keep Rolle at safety.

He had a few very nice plays, and I understand the coaches were impressed with his football instincts and smarts. I’m glad they decided to keep him.

For once, the Giants showed a willingness to make difficult decisions at cutdown time. Dillard was a mid-round draft pick last year, and they’ve been awfully reluctant to cut those sorts of players in the past. However, he was outplayed by Greg Jones and by Herzlich. They deserved to make the team over Dillard, and I’m glad they did.

Herzlich will prove you so wrong.

Jesus Christ could come down and play linebacker, and it he couldn’t get the job done, the other players would want him gone. When the Giants start losing games, do you think the owner will say “It’s OK, at least we have that cancer survivor on the team!”

Orr maybe they realized his heart was enough for him to make the team?

Plus, a guy like that is someone others will respect and rally around, so he does bring some “intangibles” benefits.

Hopefully he’ll still be around so we can sign him to the practice squad.

Was out of shape, not fast enough and just wasn’t the same player that he was in 2008. I think the Giants let him make the team because he would be a positive story.
