Why didn’t the Giants re-sign RB Gallman? – @GregPare1
What’s up, Greg? From the Giants’ perspective, I think they felt it would be cheaper to draft a rookie rather than pay both Devontae Booker and Gallman.
From Gallman’s perspective, I think he just wanted a fresh start with another team.
Now that the picture about free agency and the draft is clearer, and the schedule is out, what do you think our floor is, and where is our ceiling? Also, What is your prognosis of DJ and his final stat line? – @MrTreeAmigos

Per NFL.com, “New York announced Thursday that it has re-signed safety/special teams player Bennett Jackson and signed former Tennessee Titans offensive lineman Corey Levin.”
Jackson saw action in four games for New York in 2020 with 48 special teams snaps prior to be placed on injured reserve with a hamstring injury. Jackson was drafted by the Giants in the sixth round of the 2014 NFL Draft and has seen playing time with the Giants, Ravens and Jets, having joined the latter in 2019 off waivers from Baltimore.

The Giants have hired Carter Blount to be a defensive quality control assistant on Joe Judge s staff.
Blount most recently was a special teams quality control role at Tennessee, where he worked under former head coach Jeremy Pruitt, another former college coach with ties to Judge, whom the Giants head coach added to his staff last month.
Blount presumably will fill the vacancy on Judge s staff created when defensive quality control assistant Mike Treier was promoted to assistant defensive backs coach.
Blount was hired by Pruitt shortly after he was named head coach at Tennessee, where he also was part of a staff that included linebackers coach Kevin Sherrer and strength and conditioning coach Craig Fitzgerald.
