Tiki Barber (RB), NYG - Re-signed
September 10, 2005
News: The New York Giants have signed star RB Tiki Barber to a two-year contract extension. The contract extension ensures that Barber will remain with the organization through the 2008 season. There is no word yet on how much the contract was worth. However, some are estimating that it was worth more than $6 million a season.
Views: Barber is one of the few highlights of the Giants team. I had the opportunity to go to a New York Giants training camp session in Albany, NY. Barber looked very sharp and was making very solid cuts on both his runs and his routes. This is a very good move for the New York Giants. If the Giants got a bigger line, one that could actually block well, Tiki Barber would have a huge year. Right now, priority for the Giants should be strengthening their line. This would also help out QB Eli Manning.
