Keith Bullock Signs With Giants

It has been a pretty quiet off-season for the New York Giants.

With the Jets dominating the headlines for the past six months, Big Blue hasn't made much noise in the off-season, yet this is a big year for the Giants.

Many believe, and I am NOT one of them, that coach Tom Coughlin could be in trouble if the Giants miss the playoffs for the second straight fall. It doesn't make sense since the Giants won the Super Bowl going on three years ago, but, so is life in the NFL.

Over the weekend the Giants signed former Titans linebacker Keith Bullock signed a one year $2.5 million deal with the G-Men to be their middle linebacker. He will replace Antonio Pierce who was released in February.

Bullock who grew up in Suffern, was a dominant figure for the Titans for the last 10 years. He had five straight years of 120 plus tackle seasons from 2002-2006. At 33, he is coming off an ACL injury, and has something to prove.

He's not a sack machine, only 18 in his career, but is great in coverage with 19 interceptions in his career.

Bullock should provide the kind of leadership that the Giants need in the middle of their re-tooling defense.
