Blue Wire.

Welcome back.

It's the big blue banter.

New York Giants football podcast.

I'm Dan Schneier.

Joined as always my co-host, Nick Palado, who recently I saw in the comment,

someone said, he looked a lot like Mac from Always Sunny, and now I can't unsee it.

Honestly, dude, I cannot unsee it.

I was thinking about that.

You do look a lot like Mac from Always Sunny.

You'll never look like Fat Mac.

No, I will never look like Fat Mac unless something terrible happens to me. Nothing will happen. You are never going to look like that, Matt. I will know you for the entirety of my life that I know you. We will die as old men as friends, and you will be the same skinny motherfucker that you've always been with zero gut.

I'll say this.

I've actually heard that Matt comparison dating back to high school. So it's something that I have heard before. I don't really see it. Whoever said that in the comments. It was very funny. But unfortunately, we'll never get to see fat Nick. And I say that unfortunately because I think it would be funny. I know he's like devastated to even here that that could even be funny. That's not funny to him. I think I just even just saying that comment out loud, he probably will eat like 13 less grams of carbs today just based on that. It's only 13. Only 13. But we want to do a quick recap of the second practice again. Thank you to those who are at the practice. We want to do as a little bit of stock report, stock up, stock down type of stuff, things that are interesting already from that standpoint. So the first player, I think, was stock up. It was stock up from day one in practice, stock up from day two in practice. Darren Waller, from both people who are following practice, say Bobby Skinner and Connor hughes the guys just open all the time in the middle of the field according to these guys four

catches people who are following practice, they, Bobby Skinner and Connor Hughes. The guys just open all the time in

the middle of the field, according to these guys, four catches in the early team periods.

He took a breather at one point. Daniel Jones looked another way at that point to a different

receiver, but early in practice, Jones was hitting a lot of Darren Waller, who stock is way up right

now, I think. And at this point,

I think, Nick, we're looking at Waller. This is my expectation going into this. Like, for the last month and a half, I've been drafting Waller in our CBS sports mock draft because I feel like he's really undervalued in fantasy right now as a six-round pick, seventh-round pick. Um, when, Meanwhile, like if you look at all the tight ends across the NFL, I think outside of Travis Kelsey, there's not really a case to be made for anyone that has a better chance than Waller to be the number one target getter on their specific team. Mark Andrews may be, but they added a lot of different pieces in Monkins running a system where I think the ball will be spread out. Outside of Kelsey, though, and Waller, I don't know too many other players who could be the number one target getter on their team. And it seems like we're starting to get to the point, Nick, here, where it seems very, very likely that Waller is not only going to be the top target getter on the Giants, but could be looking at potential, like, 125 targets in his first season. Which wasn't necessarily something that I initially expected. I still thought it would be diversified the target share, like target pool would be spread out. And I still kind of do think that to some degree, but I think the passing attack will go through Darren Waller, not just because of these training camp practices, but if this guy can't stay healthy, which was always the point of emphasis that we were concerned about, like, is he going to stay healthy? Is he going to stay on the field now that he is north of 30 years old? If he does, we're going to see the Daniel Bellinger role on steroids plus some. It's going to be so much more from what the Giants were doing in the red zone last season with Daniel Bellinger. Now you have Darren Wall.

That's a complete, we love Daniel Bellinger on this podcast.

He's an acquaintance of the podcast as we talk about.
