Celtic1982citleC is an unknown quantity at this point

Yes, I watch the Giants. Other then watching all of my Lions games, I like to watch the local teams and games where U of Michigan alums play big roles. I like cheering for teams with players I like, as its awfully painful being a Lions fan. Some days I wonder why I bother and don't just boycott until they fire our GM who's name I can't even muster the stomach to type. Anyway, I watch a LOT of Cleveland Browns games (love Braylon Edwards...how couldn't ANYONE not cheer for him after seeing that game vs Michigan State his senior season, simply the best individual effort ever by a WR in college football) and I don't think that you've seen Rueben Droughns play. He is a HARD runner with above average speed. He will make one move and then explode through the hole. Unfortunately Romeo Cronell decided to play musical running backs and use Lee Suggs and William Green (gag) in combination with Droughns (and people wonder wtf is wrong with Clevelands offense). Droughns is an A+ guy and brings a lot to the G-men. I think you'll be VERY surprised once he's suited up in the blue and white and getting the lions share of the work. I still think Jacobs is a lack luster receiver (he had as many drops as he did receptions, which you failed to point out) and still needs to work on picking up blocks. When he played at Auburn/SIU in college he did neither of these things either which is making his learning curve a little bit tougher then a lot of people. He has the potential to be a star in the future, but for now he'll continue to play second fiddle to Droughns who I see having a 1600+ yard season for the G-Men.
