If he's good enough to beat Jones, Cobb, or Driver out for a spot, he would have done it. He's raw and there's no guarantee he'll amount to anything in the league. Teams wanted Breno Giacomini off of our PS too. He had great measurable. He never panned out to anything.
Who said anything about him being better than Cobb? As for Jones and Driver, he wasn't ready. He didn't even receive a playbook until the shortened training camp started. Gurley was given a pay raise to keep him around for good reason. He has talent and Thompson knows it. He was an undrafted rookie in a lockout offseason. It would have been unreasonable to think a guy in that situation was going to beat out 2 vets and a high draft pick in his first year. Yeah, Cruz was undrafted too. But the Giants were weak at WR making it an easy call to put him on their roster. Giacomini? Why the red herring? Not sure why you're bringing him into the conversation. What Giaco has or hasn't done has NOTHING to do with Gurley or anyone else. If he has an offseason showing anything like last years training camp/preseason, he'll make the team. I'd put money on it.
