Coughlin was really positive about the things Andre Brown was doing in camp. Paraphased, he said Brown looked like the other RBs that were making it for the Giants in the past, that he was lowering his shoulder and he was getting it done. So this one hurts. We'll have to wait until 2011 probably to really know. The Giants will give him another crack at it in 2010 but an Achilles means 2 years before you are really contributing meaningfully.Andy F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07020742034297033233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126451417395202308.post-78641610203205893702009-08-16T22:56:40.183-04:002009-08-16T22:56:40.183-04:00Andy,

Even after a successful recovery, he may not be the same player.glenn warciskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07255239671865423168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126451417395202308.post-22768822096814996332009-08-15T18:02:02.021-04:002009-08-15T18:02:02.021-04:00Andy

Here goes some of<br />our depth.<br /><br />Also, Brown might be our # 2<br />or # 3 RB in a few years. We need him<br />preparing for that.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12473536605527134659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126451417395202308.post-84616775832887791322009-08-15T09:43:34.672-04:002009-08-15T09:43:34.672-04:00Lou- While you are correct to say it will won'...Lou- While you are correct to say it will won't hurt the team too badly, that is 2009. <br /><br />In the positive circumstances of a good recovery, you need these guys on the field learning their blocking assignments etc.., so (1) he loses a year, period.<br /><br />In a sneaky way it undermines your draft and depth. (2) Reese needs this guy there when negotiating extensions for Bradshaw and Ware. Reese can afford to be gracious with the Eli money because of his success at places like RB (where he has been drafting so well that he has extra resources to go around).<br /><br />You also have to know (3) a RB like this is supposed to be an integral part of your special teams. So while it should not and will not be a pivotal loss, it's a setback.Andy F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07020742034297033233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126451417395202308.post-17237003292494076962009-08-15T09:08:06.309-04:002009-08-15T09:08:06.309-04:00With Ware as the number 3, this doesn't hurt t...With Ware as the number 3, this doesn't hurt too badly. It would be much worse to lose someone at safety or center. (Wait. Is there anyone behind Ohara?) I hope we'll see Brown back next year.Lou Spevackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15258147449355059246noreply@blogger.com
