The Giants had no choice but to let Bennett go but it’s foolish to feel that Myers is a better player. He’s much smaller, can’t block and doesn’t have nearly the same speed. There was a reason he was still available and virtually no other teams were interested.

With that being said he had a career year and catches everything thrown his way. He’s the perfect fit for the Giants who tend to throw far more often then rush the ball.

to flavordave: Ya know its kinda hard to know what the eagles will do? Remember the “Dream Team,” didn’t work out too well for the Eagles. I’m a Giants fan and I was actually a little scared when the Eagles were signing all those big names. I was relieved though when Victor Cruz scorched Asomugha the whole first game, though. Oh and another reason it impossible to know what they’ll do is because an unproven college coach is always a question mark……….wait until they get on the field before you start talking trash, otherwise, when the Giants beat them you’ll end up having nothing to say, which really wouldn’t be a bad thing.

Giants are up against the cap pretty hard. This was one of two signings I hoped they would make, Rey Maualuga was the other one that now will not happen (Dan Connor). Since he played for OAK the only reason I even know who Meyers is was through seeing fantasy stats. Wish he got a three year deal, but Adrien Robinson must still be a year away. Draft a blocking TE somewhere mid draft and Reese pulled off a nice off-season. In Reese we trust.

Let’s face it, Eli makes any TE better. Good luck in to him!

The first post nailed it, he’s not athletic, but he gets open and he has great hands.

All the best to him.

In Jerry Reese we trust.

Solid pickup and I have a feeling when the contract numbers are released we will see that it was at a deep discount compared to what Bennett got.

Good pick up for Giants. Will be missed in Oak Town. Hopefully Raider Nation will get compensated with addional picks with all the free agent losses to let Reggie draft some young talent. Good luck Brandon in your new NFL chapter.

Love these clowns posting Reggie M sucks. All these players that everyone says “it hurts to lose” have been part of the NFL’s worst team of the last decade!

I thought Myers was pretty solid last season, IMO solid replacement for Bennett looking forward for this season to start and seeing Giants and my cowboys going at it, just hope Dallas does something this offseason to help out our OL, S and pass rush anyways solid pick up NY

Reggie McKenzie, you should have just cut Carson Palmer.

He has nothing left for an avid passing game and had too much money on the books for you to re-sign Brandon Myers.

Raider fans, get ready for another bad season.

They’d already have a TE if Belichick didn’t snatch Ballard last year.

Bwahahaha!

Giants are in desperation mode. Theyre signing ex raiders? He will infect that team. Which is good. Because Myers cant beat the Philly 3-4. Chip has collected and built an 11 headed defensive monster that will hold teams under 10 ppg. No more super bowls division titles playoff games or even mid season wins. The Kelly era has begun. World domination tour 2013. We will shock the world! And theres simply nothing anyone can do about it.

Now there’s a recipe for success. Let’s replace our quality players with guys from the Raiders. hahaha

In order to do that you must first have QUALITY players!!! There should be a rule that until your franchise wins 1 just 1 super bowl keep your mouth shut.

Oakland gave up 433 points last season, almost as much as the Eagles. Myers had room to move, but he does have soft hands. Manning should like him.

With Eli throwing to him and Mike Pope coaching him, Myers will have a much better season than Martellus Bennett who walked away from the best situation he’ll ever have.
Players should realize that it’s the team and the coaching that make their careers and stop chasing the last buck.

Hopefully he works out better for the giants than kevin boss did for the raiders!! Good luck myers! David ausberry or richard gordan should be able to step up in their 3rd year…hopefully! Go Raiders!!!

Great pickup…Better than Marty B…… Mr. Reeses’ expertise…Giants org is a class act !

good move Reg –whatever you do, by all means dont keep any of the few quality players that the organization did somehow manage to develop —I havent checked the actual stats but this has to be the worst decade ever by an NFL team –and no end in sight.

Dudes going to put up monster #s. If he put up great stats with Palmer then he potentially has the skills to be a star with Eli. Eli makes any TE looks good. Boss, Ballard, and most recently Bennett. Lets hope Mike Pope can fix his run blocking with is descent at best.

With a replacement for hixon found – the burner murphy, and one for bennett – myers his 79 recs and 800 + yards – you can bet the gmen focus on d in the draft and perhaps an o lineman or two.
