Blue Wire.

Welcome back. It's the Big Blue Banter. New York Giants Football Podcast. Dan Schneier joined as always my co-ist Nick Falado. They were here to do another draft profile. And we wanted to turn the page here. We've done one profile on a running back so far, Zach Sharpen Age, the player that we both love in this class, we want to do a profile on.

I haven't done many more running back because since that point, the Giants have franchise to have San Juan Barclay, which they had come before that. And they've made mention, at least, that their objective here, at least John Marr, the owners made mention, is to resign San Juan Barclay to a long-term deal. but that I don't think rules them out completely from the running back market,

especially as we get closer to rounds three, rounds four, where there might be an overwhelming talent gap between the running back they have graded highest on their board and either position. And at the same time, Nick, I think they might look at this like, we need weapons on offense no matter where and how we can get them.

And we saw some of that at the end of last season, which we'll talk a little bit more about today.

when the Giants started using more of that pony package with both Matt Breedah and Saquan Park on the field.

Well, if you're Joe Shane, if you're Brian Daibu, you might be thinking, what if we summed out

Matt Breedah, we put in someone who has even more speed,

even more elusiveness, even more talent, even more explosiveness, even more big playability.

And that leads us to Taj Spears, the running back we're going to discuss today from

Tulane.

And part of why we wanted to discuss him is the Giants are using a top 30 private visit on him.

There are hundreds of draft prospects in this class. 250 plus get drafted. Only 30 go to these teams for private pre-draft visits.

Now, that doesn't mean everyone who's being courted on these visits is going to be a target for

the Giants. Some of these players, they probably just want to learn more information on or get a better feel for their medical. I think a good tweet today. I don't know if you saw this, Nick from Albert Breer was like, Josh Downs has zero private visits planned right now because Josh Downs such a clean evaluation that people don't feel the need to bring him in. And I'm not saying that's why they're bringing Tajay Spears in.

But when they're bringing them in for a private 30 visit, it feels like there's definitely some interest in the Giants drafted three players last year who were on private top 30 visits. So that's something to keep in mind as well because obviously, you know, that shows that there's a history there. So I'm excited to talk about Tajay Spears this today, Nick,

because I think there is a place in this draft where the Giants are picking in either

round three or round four where if they selected at Tajay Spears,

I can get really excited about what he can potentially bring for the offense as early as

year one.

Same here, man.

This is a wildly productive player at Tulane, a player that i feel like he's not the biggest
