What do you mean they just got Sage

Canty signs with G-men. Great FA moves.

Giants continue to bolster defense, sign DT Canty

New York continues making bold moves to shore up its defense.

One day after signing defensive tackle Rocky Bernard and linebacker Michael Boley, the Giants signed free-agent defensive end Chris Canty to a six-year, $42 million contract that includes $17.25 million in guaranteed money. Now Dallas’ loss is New York’s gain.

Dallas could not afford to keep Canty, and Green Bay was trying to arrange for him to visit the Packers. But Canty did not want to leave New York, nor the East Coast, and Sunday afternoon he took the Giants’ offer.

The Giants have gotten defensive. Again.

THE NFC BEAST IS GETTING ANGRIER!

Nice move by the Giants, are they thinking Canty, Robbins, Bernard, Osi as their starting line? Where does that leave Kiawanuka? Back at LB?

NFL Network is currently blowing up their defensive line as the thing to watch out for this year. They're saying they are going to be the most formidable group in the whole NFC East.

They're also saying the the Skins and Eagles need to shore up their OT spots in order to keep up with the Giants pass attack.

It's a no brainer, like I said, no weaknesses during their rotation.

HAHA! What pass attack? Remember how things fared for them with Burress out... I'm not overly concerned about that Giants pass attack until they find another legit number one.

What are you saying Malcolm??? Didn't you know that the Giants have great backups in every position, that's why drafting 3 more front 7 guys makes soooo much sense!

I heard this somewhere (espn?) but can't remember exactly.

I'm gonna play a little devil's advocate and just say the G-men will be lucky to maintain the same defensive dominance, even with all these recent additions, because they're missing Spags. The defense wasn't really fantastic before he got there and they had pretty phenom players back then too.

... things will be more even in the NFC east this year unless the cowpokes continue to suffer locker room issues and the eagles don't upgrade anywhere, in which case I think we'll be pushing hard on the G-men all year.

Actually Dallas has some real work to do losing Canty and still stuck w/ the shitty set of corners. I hope they think springs is the answer at corner

Well that would make sense, I mean having a different coach could affect them. But the word is that we're going to loose our two games against the Giants because of their ridiculous defensive line.

I'm playing man, playing with all these people praising the hell out of the Giants.

Maybe we can convince Osi Umeniyora to get a travel show like Dhani Jones (I just saw a commercial for his show). LOL.
