Gets me thinking about our own wake. Maybe he will finally stop getting mugged and have a huge season? Kind of excited...tho i still hate the new skintight look...

It will be better for Wake too.

Are they really that much tighter? It was pretty difficult to get the last jerseys over the pads. Are these that much different?

A good O lineman will still be able to grab it although it is getting more difficult.

They should just send him out there in aqua colored saran wrap.

Have you ever noticed how tightly wrapped the Giants D line wears their uniforms? No sleeves to grab at all. Almost like they're completely different from the rest of the league.

Here's Osi Umenyiora -



For comparison purposes, here's Cameron Wake -



Not a huge difference, but it's there.

The Giants consistently have one of the best, if not the best front 4s in the league. I wouldn't be crazy enough to suggest it's all about the uniform, but I wonder if it does give them an edge. And I wonder if the new Nike uniforms will give the same advantage to all defensive linemen.
