Deals with the devil are never made from a strong bargaining position. The old fella with the pointy ears and pitchfork only shows up in desperate times offering desperate measures in exchange for souls.
With that said, the Giants have a new safety in Brandon Meriweather.
They had little choice but to add the banged-up bad boy to their depleted secondary, signing the two-time Pro Bowler and two-time suspendee to help out at a position where they need two starters and currently have none. But with Meriweather comes baggage unlike any the Giants have taken on in their recent past.
