Kelvin had an even better catch against him last year that I can't find.

They were running step for step when suddenly like 8 feet of arms appeared and snagged a pass.

Todd Gurley passed his conditioning test and will start camp on the active roster, meaning he can't be placed on reserve/PUP to start the season.

Gurley probably the bargain of the draft. Rams are going to make some city very happy.

It's gonna be rad as gently caress when Sanu takes a snap and pretends like he's going to hurl it, but then just loving takes off up the middle like a somehow lankier Cam Newton.

Dontari Poe hosed up his back so he'll miss camp. Sounds like he's getting surgery too.

Joe Morris was a RB on the '86 team. He was solid but nobody special.
Stephen Baker was kind of ironically nicknamed "The Touchdown Maker" was a middling WR. Had a decent game in the Bills Superbowl.
Sean Landeta was the P on the '86 and '90 SB teams. Had a decent career for a P.
George Martin was a 3-4 DE on the '86 team. Holds (or held) the record for most TD's score by a defensive lineman.
Rodney Hampton was on the 1990 SB team but was on IR. Had a solid career as a RB, but again nobody special.
Jeff Feagles was the P on the 07 SB team. Has a few NFL punting records.
Shaun O'Hara Rutgers guy who was part of the best Giants line in the mid-late '00s. Was on the 07 SB team.
Rich Seubert UDFA who was a mainstay on that mid 00's line. Won SB 42.
Keith Hamilton was a dlineman on the losing '00 team. Solid player.
Jim Burt was a DT he won a SB with the Giants in '86 and one with the Niners after that.
OJ Anderson played 14 years between the (St. Louis) Cards and Giants. Was on the 86 and 90 SB team. Was supposed to be a seldom used backup in 90 but basically was the starter after Hampton got hurt. Under rated player. Hall of Very Good in my book.
Carl Banks was a LB on the 86 and 90 team and now is the color guy on the radio for the Giants.

Thanks to tecmo bowl the only guys I hadn't heard of was Martin and Burt. Seems like most of those guys appeared in a Tecmo Bowl of some sort.

Feagles and O'Hara are the only two names I recognized and knew the positions they played.

I also instantly remembered Rodney Hampton, but I thought he was a running back in the mid 2000's and not the early 90's.

I'm getting old

When I see Rodney Hamption this immediately pops in my head:

I think I had a dozen of these cards as a kid.

Ok I'm officially scared. He doesn't really have a backup unless it's that 6th round Southern Miss guy they just drafted.

Jaye Howard is who they're plugging in I guess. I'm not hopeful of that working out particularly well.

I think he already had the surgery, which is why he will be missing everything till at a very bare minimum of September.

Same. Those and the Fleer ones from around that year with the lovely giant grey borders one year and the awful green border / color gradient background the next year.

I probably had a lawyer's document box full of those things.

I think you can still find unopened factory boxes of Pro Set. Loved the look of them but man did they over produce.
