Breaking Down The Giants' First 2024 Depth Chart: Special Teams Edition!

all right guys let's get into the Special Teams cuz they're special so special they're so special so special ah here we go so special teams there and and we have a lot of not surprises in this let's be honest here there's really two things we're really looking at this and that's the return game that's the big thing there you know you got obviously your holder sorry your Long Snapper is going to be Casey kater we don't have another Long Snapper on the roster uh holder be Jamie Gillan Scottish Hammer himself who of course is our punter as well kicker we have Graham gno who obviously you fully expect Graham Gau to be healthy this year hopefully and be the starter and play uh Jade MC I'm always mispronouncing his name as well and I it's part I think need a cut I don't feel like they need to to keep learning it over once the Boom talk about him Jade mc mc whatever the guy the kid from Ruckers who lost a starting job and still thinks he can make an NFL roster that guy call it like it is call it like it is MC a t a m NE y mney whatever his name is the guy to be cut eventually brutal I'm such a jerk I know it's okay uh practice squad yeah and no not even that listen I'm sorry if you cannot make and keep your starting job in college I don't feel the need to learn your name in the NFL because you know what they call the NFL they not for long and this guy is exemplifying that I'm telling you right now like the fact he's even I feel like they just put him on a roster like oh went to Ruckers you must live local you want you're Voice come on yeah did you know New Brunswick's really close to East ruford it's not but okay well it's a lot closer than uh Mississippi State yeah that it is that I'll give you that yes um here's the fun ones though is the the returners so your kickoff starter which I find it funny they put Kos instead of KR kick returner kickoff starter gunar osfi Isaiah McKenzie Darius Slayton juandale Robinson Aira Sante Tyrone Tracy Jr now that's the same order they gave for the record at punt returner there is no difference so the Curious Thing is what's going to happen here because gunar oesi is right now we say he's on the third yeah he's on the third team at that point so you got one two three four five six seven seven to 10 players ahead of him at the wide receiver position depending on where you want to rank the three people that are in the third team if he doesn't make it as a kick returner guys he's not making the team let's be very honest in this cuz I McKenzie number two is actually serviceable as a wide receiver gar roesy is not now partially it's gonna be G was also picked up to you know be a kick returner yeah but but like you said like they literally picked up this guy because that that was his profession that's what he did it's well not his profession but you know what I mean like that that was his special is his profession it's okay well that's what he's getting paid for but he's also technically paid to be a w a wide receiver yeah I'm saying McKenzie get no he's not cuz he hasn't caught the ball in years he literally hasn't caught a single pass in years like that's all he is it's a punt returner and I don't mean that to be disrespectful to what he does punt returning is important if you don't think so look at the Giants last year just saying he caught one reception all year for zero yards last year that's where we're at he caught five catches for 53 yards the year before that like this is not a guy that you're actually counting on to do anything whatsoever I'm gonna give you this this is how bad it is with gunar roseski okay he has not had a single receiving yard since week 14 of the 2022 season H nice you know no who else has it me I have not had it single the difference is you're not getting paid for the work to to work in the NFL this is true just saying that's the difference I mean that's got to be to me an up for McKenzie is the fact that while he's never really blown the top off he had like his best season was like 400 yards a couple years ago with the bills but he's been a guy who's consistently gotten 150 to 250 yards receiving along with having the abilities he has for special teams that to me puts him ahead if I have to pick one of the two I'm probably picking Isaiah McKenzie because of that versatility yeah especially like this Giants team the past couple years seem to really like the no names kind of receivers to get you some more yards besides saying and the Giants have no clue what they want to do with the position guys let's be very Frank of that there was reports of Malik neighbors even punt returning at one point andion Jason seahorn dancing through her head like no stop this don't do it to me don't you already did it once God that was even funny enough but I mean I think honestly you know again you look at this group and you go anybody could take that job anybody can but I don't want Darius slayen I don't want W Bill Robinson there like this is a backup role I'm sorry the one or two extra yards you might get me because you're a better pun returner or kickoff returner is not worth me losing one of my top receivers for the entire year but top backup receiver uh wand Robinson and darus slayen are both at least top four receivers in this this roster well all right okay I hear what you're saying there it's fine like that's what I'm saying like from Wyoming out there go ahead you know I'm okay with that you want to put gunar or McKenzie out there I'm good with that you want to put Tyrone Tracy Jr I'm okay with that but I don't like guys saying away yeah keep those guys away so like I said if I had to pick one right now isaia McKenzie my pick so yeah that would make more sense if you like that then you will love the full episodes too
