Giants Fans lose their minds at Draft Pick (familiar to Bills fans)


Recommended Posts

That was awesome.  In these situations I always feel sorry for the player, because it's not his fault -- but wow.  The draft crowd at the stadium all booed the pick!

 

The Giants have become a joke.

Yeah - it is a shame for the poor player.

 

What I really empathize with is that complete sense of helplessness those fans are feeling. When you are stuck with an owner/GM/coach that is driving you crazy and there is nothing you can do about it, you feel like an enraged five-year-old.

 

Of course, the whole thing also illustrates how ludicrous it is that so many of us take this parlor game so seriously (me definitely included - I take a four-day holiday from work every Draft).

To me it’s nowhere near as funny when a guy is self recording himself for a reaction and attention on the internet. 

 

What made the Jets picks so funny over the years was seeing a 3rd party camera(ESPN) catching their reactions to their picks

A bit like this Raiders fan reaction?

So he reaches on his first pick for a player he says needs to sit behind Eli for three years.

Got it.

Glad he's not our GM.

Funny, Beane used to work under him, yet he is nothing like Gettleman...thank God!

Yeah I've often wondered how they worked together, being so different (or at least seeming so to me. Gettleman seems incompetent. I have a good friend in NYC whose a die hard life long fan. Feel bad for him.

What sucks even more for them is I heard Dorsey was their first choice.

And McDermott was the unanimous choice of the 6 member executive board for the Browns Head Coach job.  Haslam overruled them and hired Hue Jackson instead.  How different things could have been.......

Sorry if this has been posted, but I haven't seen it.

 

Hilarious compilation of Giants fans going out of their skulls at the Daniel Jones pick.

Feels very familiar to me from many Bills drafts, though not this one.

 

Reminds me more of when we took Whitner over Ngata.  Everyone hated that pick and rightfully so.  At least Allen was spilt, many of us were super excited it was Allen over Rosen.

Flashbacks of Whitner over Ngata and Maybin over Orakpo, but I still don't feel those were as bad as Daniel Jones being taken @ 6 by the Giants with the other guys that were on the board.

Yeah, I feel the same way.  A lot of those reactions were overdone, knowing they'd be posted online.

And even when we took EJ, it sucked, but at least we traded back
