Just how good is this will alen guy. i did see a few giants games last season but he wasnt the most explosive player on the feild. can he take over as the #1 cb ???

Check the other threads, but basically he has had trouble catching the INTs, but has been in position to make them, so thats a positive. He has started 71 of 72 games, is a former 1st round pick, has decent size, excellent speed (4.33 at the combine), and is a good tackler who supports the run nicely. Basically, just has to get his hands on those picks, because he is otherwise a very solid cover corner. We wont have a true #1 under Saban- he will put together a deep group of guys that play the way he likes and that are coachable.

he could and might be but right now it will probably belong to daniels

 

[DBoston80]

He brings veteran leadership and will compete for a starting job...but I cant call him our #1 just yet...ofcourse we play our cb's to there position.. so whoever is on the right side STAYS on the right..regardless if there covering Chad Johnson or a mediocre guy like Mccarains etc.

 

[playmaker1]

he was a first round pick

Will Allen, CB, N.Y. Giants

Key StatsGP: 16Tackles: 72Sacks: 0Int: 0TDs: 0FF: 1Judge: A former first-round pick, he became the poster child for inconsistent play. One week he looked good; the next he was surrendering touchdowns. A five-year starter. Had no interceptions last season.

Interceptions are nice, but give me a guy who can prevent passes from being completed over the guy who goes for the big play anyday. This guy is not a top tier signing, but he definitely is a quality under the radar player who could be good for us. Hill was a nice signing as well, and I'm no longer that worried about our secondary with 3 or 4 quality corners.

Atleast he isn't Reggie howard.

 

[CitizenSnips]

giants fans don't like him, but give me a break. The giants played against T.O., Santana Moss and Keyshawn Johnson last year within their own division. I would expect allen to get beat a few times too with that comin at me.
