Blue Liar.

Welcome back. It's the big blue banter. New York Giants football podcast. I'm Dan Schneier.

Join as always my co-host, Nick Bellato.

Today we're here to talk a little Giants football. We want to talk to you about some things that stood out to us when John Mara, Giant's owner, Joe Shane, Giant Channel Manager, and Brian Dable spoke at the owner's meetings.

The owner's meetings are an interesting time, as Joe Shane referenced, because you get a chance to speak to a lot of GMs.

You get a chance to the owners, get a chance to speak to the owners.

There are potential rule changes that come through for the NFL.

But more importantly, there's potential trade options and talks. We now know from learning from Joe Shane that the Darren Waller trade

actually started at the senior bowl and he was talking to the Raiders GM there. And that then

matriculated all the way through to the point of the trade. So something similar could happen,

but Giants decide to make another trade either for players or

for draft picks. So I'm really interested to see what comes out of that. But today we're going to focus on some of the key takeaways. Before we do that, Nick, how are you doing today, my friend? I'm out here in Arizona where all the owners are. They're over at the Bougie, Biltmore in Scottsdale, but it's very sunny here. I can understand why a lot of coaches and owners would like to come to this day. I believe last year they were in Florida, but I'm doing well, man. Thank you for asking. It's constant sun out there in Arizona. Do you live a, live a nice life? And I feel like a lot of people and things are moving out there. So it must be nice. But it's actually a sunny day out here today in New Jersey, so I can't complain too much.

There you go. Let's talk a little Giants football. We're going to go in no kind of order. But I want to start with what I thought was the most interesting thing to come out of the interviews. And that was this discussion on the center position for the Giants. So as everyone knows, the giant signed John Feliciano to a one-year

deal last year. He started almost every game at center. Danny, uh-uh, what did he miss? One or two games.

Feliciano, I mean, he was the center. So however many games he missed, it's not big. It was

negligible. Yeah. And during those time, during that time, Nick Gates was the one who stepped in anyway at center for him.

And Nick Gates signed with the Washington commanders in a multi-year deal.

John Feliciano signed with the San Francisco 49ers.

So both players are gone.

It leaves a pretty glaring hole at center.

There's been speculation among fans and us who may take it.

But we finally got some clues as to what the Giants feel about the situation right now.
