No Tension in New York: Giants' Smith, Moss Bonding

Jun/07/07 10:34 AM Filed in: Sinorice Moss
You would think that Sinorice Moss felt a lack of faith and a bit if disrespect when the Giants drafted Steve Smith of USC in the second round of the NFL Draft. However, that's not the case at all and Moss believes Smith is going to make the Giants better.

"I don't think that was a reflection of me at all, them drafting Steve," Moss said. "They're looking more for the long run, not about that I didn't perform last year."
When people evaluate the Giants, they so often forget about Moss. Because of the injuries last season, no one really got to see what he was all about. When drafted, he was just as hyped as Smith currently is and the expectations were equally as high. There is a very good chance that Moss ends up being just as, if not more, productive than Smith. It's a great "problem" the Giants have with these two.

What's even better is that they're getting along. While there is a competition, they both realize its part of the business. Perhaps the most telling comments came from Moss.

"He's my teammate first," Moss said.

I love that attitude and it will only result in good things for the Giants.
