BLUE 1,026 Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) Per Rotoworld.com: Giants DC Perry Fewell hinted Saturday that WLB Michael Boley may not be shifted to middle linebacker.GM Jerry Reese has said Boley could be moved to the middle, but Fewell isn't sure it would work. "I don't think that's his best position in the long run," Fewell said. Fewell did allow that Boley "definitely has the ability to do that." According to Fewell, Chase Blackburn is currently penciled in at middle linebacker, and Greg Jones, Mark Herzlich and Keith Rivers will all get chances to compete for the job. In reality, Boley is probably still the favorite, but it will be a camp battle to watch for IDP players.

BLUE 1,026 Posted May 14, 2012 Per Rotoworld.com: Giants DC Perry Fewell indicated that Chase Blackburn will open training camp as the team's starting middle linebacker.Fewell did say he anticipates "competition" at MIKE, naming Mark Herzlich, Greg Jones, and Keith Rivers as Blackburn's competitors. Blackburn is more of a fill-in, replacement-level middle linebacker, though he is an adequate run stuffer. It sounds like Michael Boley is staying on the weak side for now.
