Which players on the Giants do you hope are part of the team next year? For me it's:
Offense:
Eli
Nassib
Jennings
Williams
Donnell
Beckham Jr
Cruz (assuming recovery)
Pugh
Schwartz
Richburg
Defense:
Hankins
Bromley
JPP (not at 2011 prices and moved to LE)
Moore (still have hope)
Ayers
Kennard
DRC
Prince
McBride
Tayler
Behre
That's 21 players if my counting is right. The cupboard is really pretty bare.
I'd also add Washington, Harris, Rogers Gaines, maybe Mosley.
Frankly, while not rational, if I never saw anyone from the defense that played tonight again in a Giant uniform, I would no shed tears.
Eric,
I would really like to know why you see it this way. Rolle has been treated well. Do you know of him personally being fed up with the team? It would be understandable. Is Thurmond fed up?
It's very likely a combination of the two.
The D is a goddamn joke. They will always ALWAYS fold in a big spot.
Gotta blow up the D

Nothing like the prevent defense to prevent your team from winning the game. Any quarterback (except maybe Dave Brown) could have engineered that last drive with that much time to throw.

Agreed. I think the talent with some additions on the OL and WR are on the up.
The Defense is where the majority of the problems are. I do not think the scheme suits what talent is on the roster. The secondary, when healthy, is very solid but the DL, and LB areas are just plain bad.
Character was a big plus in drafting him.
I believe it's mostly on the players. Coaching has it's ups and downs (normal), but they're not the real problem here. It lies on the players imho.
