It isnr17;t often that a player becomes available half-way through the pre-season and it makes ears around the league perk up. That happened today when Ian Rapoport reported that the Cincinnati Bengals made the decision to release veteran safety George Iloka. Iloka is relatively young at 28 years old and possesses rare size for the position at 6 feet Womens Sterling Shepard Jersey , 4 inches and 225 pounds. He also has experience as both a strong safety and free safety, and has been productive for the Bengals r12; generally averaging 75 tackles and 7 passes defensed in a 16 game season. The Giantsr17; secondary is a looming question mark as the the regular season approaches. The bigger questions are at the cornerback position, but adding talent to the secondary as a whole would help the defense. Even at the more-stable safety position, both potential starting free safeties, Curtis Riley and Darian Thompson, have missed time with injury recently.From a schematic point of view, James Bettcher likes to rotate safeties to disguise coverages and the source of potential pressure. Ilokar17;s size could also make for creative alignments to help neutralize the passes to tight ends and running backs which have generated most of the offensive production against the Giantsr17; defense to date.There is also the salary cap question. The Giants donr17;t have much room with which to work, and while creating space is possible, it could create problems for them down the road. So Authentic Evan Engram Jersey , with all that in mind, should the Giants be interested in Iloka?Games, players, to watch this week in college football Happy Saturday, everyone! Before I get started, I would be remiss if I didnr17;t express my concern for everyone who was, and is, in the path of Hurricane Florence. Hopefully you, or if you have family or friends in the stormr17;s path Authentic Eli Manning Jersey , are safe and sound.But while our thoughts go out to all those effected by the storm, football will roll on, and the third week of the college football season is here. The New York Giants scouts will be out and about, searching for future Giants as the draft process is already under way for scouting departments around the NFL. So then, which games, and players, might be worth watching while we wait for Sunday night to get here? Letr17;s take a look.(17) Boise State at (24) Oklahoma StateESPN - 3:30 p.m. As you might expect from a pair of big-name ranked schools, there is NFL talent on both sidelines in this game. They may not be powerhouses like Alabama, Clemson Womens Connor Barwin Jersey , or Ohio State, but there will be players to watch this game. And if you like offensive football, these two teams can put up points. Boise State lit up UConn to the absurd tune of 810 yards of total offense and 62 points, with QB Brett Rypien putting up 372 yards and a pair of touchdowns in a little over one half of work.Oklahoma State, meanwhile, beat South Alabama 55-15 in their week two match-up. Running back Justice Hill only put up a little over 3.6 yards per carry, but scored 2 touchdowns in his 9 carries. This will mark the first time either team has faced anything like an equally matched opponent. Players to watchBoise State Brett Rypien (Q Alexander Mattison (R Oklahoma StateJustice Hill (RBYU at (6) Wisconsin ABC - 3:30 p.m.After the Giantsr17; week one loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, it looks likely that they will, or at least should Authentic Ray-Ray Armstrong Jersey , be investing in an offensive lineman early in the 2019 draft. If thatr17;s the case, Wisconsin is one of the best teams to watch. With their run-first offense and Pro-Style blocking scheme, their linemen come out incredibly well coached and prepared for the NFL. For fans ready to move on from Ereck Flowers, Badgersr17; right tackle David Edwards might be your first draft-crush. Big, powerful, athletic, and a beast in the run game, the former tight end is a name to watch. Players to watchWisconsinDavid Edwards (OT)Tyler Biadasz (OC)Jon Dietzen (OG)T.J. Edwards (ILRyan Connelly (IL(4) Ohio State at (15) TCUABC - 8 p.m.Another match-up between ranked opponents, this game will be loaded with future NFL players www.newyorkgiantsteamonline.com , particularly on the Ohio State side of things. Buckeyesr17; defensive end Nick Bosa (younger brother of Los Angeles Chargers EDGE Joey Bosa) could well be the number one overall pick in the 2019 NFL draft, and he certainly wonr17;t be alone. While they have the best edge rusher in the country on their defense, Ohio State wonr17;t have a monopoly on the position in this game. EDGE Ben Banogu looks to be a future NFL player at the EDGE position in a 3-4 or hybrid defense. Undersized for the 4-3, he is a good fit as a pass rushing linebacker with solid length, a fast first step, and good hands. A JuCo transfer, Banogu lead TCU with 8.5 sacks and 16.5 tackles for a loss in 2017.Players to watchOhio StateNick Bosa (DE/EDGE)Drer17;mont Jones (DT)Jordan Fuller (S)Parris Campbell (H-back)Isaiah Prince (OT)Binjimen Victor (WR)TCUBen Banogu (EDGE)Ty Summers (IL Jawuan Johnson (S)Who will you be watching this weekend?
