Isaiah Likely

but we'll see what happens.

Isaiah Likely I like with a B minus.

I like him because the Giants' new head coach is Likely's old head coach, who loves his tight ends, and that's John Harbaugh, of course.

I would not be shocked if Likely leads the Giants in receiving in this game.

Um, the guys that I have for reference, you know, the top is standard and whatnot.

But, um, at tight end 10, it's Juwan Johnson, then Mark Andrews, Isaiah Likely, Dalton Kincaid, Jake Ferguson, and then Michael Mayer.

I could argue for Mayer ahead of Jake Ferguson purely because of the fact that Mayer could be the first look and Jake Ferguson would be, um, the third look obviously behind, you know, because we have s- healthy CeeDee Lamb and healthy George Pickens.

But that's a really good matchup, so I don't, I don't know if I can push Ferguson back too far, so I think that's my cutoff.

They weren't looked upon or tried, they didn't try to get-

But Isaiah Likely is here now.

Yes.

So that's a big deal there.

The new offense going under center.

I think it, I think Isaiah likely will help Jackson dart, but right now I'm going to say it's a push at quarterback.

And I think the running back room is better.

Okay.

Yeah.

But we don't know if Malik neighbors is playing Sunday night, uh, it's it's part of the it's part of the equation yeah so wide receiver i just put questionable i don't know if the wide receiver room specifically is better this year compared to last year what do you think

if isaiah likely is a tight end i think the room is worse because of the loss of wandell robinson assuming neighbors is what neighbors was last year it's the same forget slayton Mooney, I don't know.

I think the loss of Robinson makes that room a little worse, but the addition of Likely playing the slot makes it the same or better.

He's got Zay Flowers, an aging tight end.

And what else? What else does he have? Isaiah Likely's gone.

Exactly.

A lot of people have taken Isaiah Likely to have a breakout season as well.

I don't think he has the weapons right now.

Their defense is going to be phenomenal.

Dalton Schultz or.

I mean, Isaiah likely.

Schultz.

Schultz Durham.

Is he top 10 for you this week?

He is number 10.

let's go mike dalton schultz or isaiah likely

oh that's a tough one uh i'll go schultz just because he's i i know what he's going to do more than i know what isaiah likely is going to do in that giants offense

He's down from tight end four to tight end eight.

He's now with Isaiah Likely and Michael Mayer.

And Drake London, man, he f- now finds himself, in my opinion, more so as this low-end wide receiver two.

He's with Tedarrell McMillan, Garrett Wilson, Jamison Williams.

So just absolutely sucks, man.

I have Michael Mayer tight end 10.

He's in that same tier of guys like Isaiah Likely, Dallas Goddard, Jake Ferguson, Travis Kelce, and Mark Andrews.

I really like the Michael Mayer talent and everything, but man, I do look at this Raiders offense and I just wonder if the answer for pretty much everyone here also could just be no, because I am not expecting many, if any, points to be scored here while your number one freaking engine of the offense is gonna be sidelined.

That helps the tight ends.

That helps guys like Isaiah Likely and Theo Johnson get open as there's less traffic in the middle of the field and more traffic deep downfield to prevent Malik Nabors' big play ability.

Like I said, just having neighbors out there, even if he doesn't go for five receptions or maybe only has two, maybe he has seven.

I don't know.

Theo Johnson, full participant all three days of practice.

He is going to play on Sunday, which is big for the Giants as they figure to run a lot of 12 personnel.

Isaiah likely is going to be one of their primary targets in this offense.

Once Neighbors is fully healthy, yes, he will be the primary receiving target.
