Mike Francesa might not be making waves on the afternoon drive for WFAN anymore, but he is still weighing in on the most pressing New York sports news, and he did not pull any punches when discussing New York Giants first-round pick Abdul Carter asking to wear Lawrence Taylor’s No.

New York's newest pass rusher may be looking to follow in the shoes of Taylor, but Carter won't be wearing his old number.
