    I really can't wait to see Osi on the field this year. I think he could very easily have his most productive season of his NFL career. As much as the rest of our D-linemen benefit from playing next to a dominating presence like Osi, he also benefits from playing with teammates who prevent opposing O-lines from focusing solely on him. If you remember, his best single season occurred when the Umenyiora-Strahan duo was at its "collective prime." He still was doubled, but teams had to be almost as wary of Strahan as they were of Osi. I think the current DE tandem of Umenyiora-Tuck is much better than the '05 duo, and that's not factoring how much stronger the Giants' DL's than they've ever been before.
