While the games were against questionable defenses it is still encouraging to note the individual and team accomplishments.
Eli Manning has been the third rated quarterback during the last three games;
QB Rating (111.7- #3) Comp (74-#7) Comp.% (68.5-# 8) Y/G (300.3 #5) Passing TD (7-#2) INT (1)
Odell Beckham Jr. was the highest rated receiver during the last three games.
OBJ was first in Yards, Receptions, and Tds.
Rec (31- #1) Yards (421- #1) Y/G (140.3- #1) Average / Rec (13.6) TD's (6- #1)
Andre Williams also demonstrated promise with the sixth highest rushing yards.
Rushing Yards (285-#6)
I hope that these performances portend good things for next year.
a quality guard or tackle along with line depth
a reliable TE that can block
a tall physical (x) receiver
a third down back.

We have two of the four. We have a tall physical X in Corey Washington. Now, he has a lot of growing to do with learning the game but he can have his place in the offense. This shouldn't stop us from trying to upgrade the position though.
Our third down back is Jennings. He is perfect for that role. However, we need more running back depth. Instead of a "third down back" because that has different meanings to people. I think we need a Darren Sproles type. A guy that is just explosive and can hurt you in both the passing game and run game. Wilson would have been awesome in this offense. What a shame but I am glad he walked away too early rather than too late.
