Welcome back. This is the Big Blue Banter, New York Giants football podcast. I'm Dan Schneier.

0:11.2

I joined as always my co-os, with a lotto.

0:13.4

We wanted to step in today to talk a little bit about this evolving Giants' wide receiver situation.

0:19.7

So it all started for me after the preseason game and the comments made by Brian

0:23.5

Dable, but we'll get into some of that.

0:25.3

And then today at practice, when there were injuries to Colin Johnson and Alec Bachman,

0:30.1

we'll update what we know about that before.

0:31.7

But with all the injuries, with the players returning, with the players leaving,

0:36.0

and just overall with the situation where you

0:38.2

have a wide receiver room right now, that's one of the, what I think was the most highly

0:42.5

paid wide receiver group in the entire NFL, where it was top four, I believe you can correct

0:46.4

me on that Nick. But either way, if you're top four or one, insane amounts of salary cap space

0:51.7

being allocated to this position. And yet I feel like we don't have any clue right now of the pecking order. I did an auction salary cap draft with my home league, a bunch of Giants fans in there, almost half the league last Saturday, Nick. And the top receiver that went was Cadarious Tony and he only went for $9 out of a 200 budget. And I wasn't the one who won him, despite my love for Godare's Tony talent-wise.

1:12.4

It just kind of goes to show any Gallaudet, one-dollar bid, somebody nobody crickets after

1:17.8

Goliday, somebody took Wondale for a dollar, just the upside play there, no bids on Shepard,

1:24.1

no bids on Colin Johnson and David Sills, despite them playing with the ones a lot this preseason, we're going to talk about too, Nick, and playing not only with the ones in the preseason at times, but throughout camp. I mean, Colin Johnson made a lot of players, and Sills starting to make them as well. So it's just such a weird, ambiguous situation right now with our receivers, and we just want to impact them all. We got to start the top of the show with the bad news from Tuesday's practice, Nick's.

1:27.7

I'm sorry nick and also it's not tuesday it's

1:49.5

wednesday so that shows how big my week's been nick so let's start by that what do you make of what's

1:54.4

going on in practice we have two updates the first is Colin johnson probably a serious injury was

1:59.5

carded off and looked like non-contact,

2:01.5

according to Dan Duggan. That one really sucks. And then Alex Bachman, who came up limping after a route and didn't return. Yeah, it's difficult to really know exactly what is going on with both of these injuries, Dan, but regardless, it sucks, right? I mean, both of these guys are having great camps. You just saw Alex Bachman have a career day in preseason,
