Giants Go 3-for-3 This Weekend

The New York Giants had a great first weekend of free agency, first they brought in and signed LB Michael Boley to fill their need at WLB, next they brought in pass rushing DT Rocky Bernard for a visit and he too signed on the dotted line before the meeting was over.

Now, the Giants have gone a very impressive 3 visits, 3 signings with the addition of versatile defensive lineman Chris Canty, who not only adds depth to an already impressive D-line it hurts a division rival as Canty's former team the Dallas Cowboys play in the same NFC East division as the Giants.

Canty has signed a 6-year, $42-Million deal with $17.25 Million guaranteed. Canty, 26 stands 6'7" and tips the scale at 304lbs will likely switch to defensive tackle with the Giants after four seasons as a 3-4 defensive end in Dallas, but his versatility as an end will likely be explored in certain situations.

You have to wonder how the Giants have been so successful this weekend, and perhaps they are taking a hint from The Godfather Series and making these players "an offer they can't refuse." Whatever their strategy the Giants have further solidied and already impressive defense, just 48 hours into free agency.
